Disney launches first 'exclusively gay moment' in Beauty and the Beast
Telegraph, UK ^ | 3-1-2017 | Hannah Furness

It built its reputation on princesses finding their prince, living happily ever after in storylines which set the benchmark for romance for generations of children.

Now, Disney is to move firmly into a new era as it introduces its first “exclusively gay moment”, disclosing the new version of Beauty and the Beast will star a manservant exploring his sexuality.

Director Bill Condon said: “LeFou is somebody who on one day wants to be Gaston and on another day wants to kiss Gaston.

“And Josh [Gad, who plays LeFou] makes something really subtle and delicious out of it.

“And that’s what has its pay-off at the end, which I don’t want to give away. But it is a nice, exclusively gay moment in a Disney movie.”

Disney is arguably a corrupt operation that sponsors misinformation via its media properties.

No conservative family should patronize Disney.

#16. Did that guy in the picture just “goose” Mickey Mouse or is he a proctologist?

New slogan: “Hand Up, Don’t Probe”.

Is this the movie with the flat, pale waxed bean Harry Potter girl as Belle? Did they miss the “beauty” part of the title?

All Disney is a gay moment and we subsidize it with every Disney purchase.

Here's another article, British press again...

Disney puts ‘gay scene’ in Beauty and the Beast: Character of LeFou set to explore his sexuality and feelings for leading man Gaston in new film

Sigh. I was actually looking forward to this.

Why is there a need to inject homosexuality into a tale which has nothing to do with homosexuality???

Their purpose is not to entertain. And it's not just to sell tie-in merchandise, either.

Their purpose is to poison your kids' minds. And it's not just about the faggotry per se ... the faggotry is just a tool. The goal is destruction of Christianity and Christian civilization. It's not "just a children's movie". It's a tool ... one of many tools ... to pursue a demonic agenda.

If this flops, it might... MIGHT... send the message to Disney that most people do NOT appreciate this kind of crap much less want it in a movie whose principle audience is families with young children.

Target is learning much the same right now.

A recent Star Wars novel trilogy is LOADED with gay characters. It's author Chuck Wendig went on an insane tirade against Christians and others who didn't like it. Incidentally his novels are HORRIBLE. Has nothing to do with the "diversity", they are just very bad novels. But to say that aloud is invite condemnation of being a homophobe (that's what the author and others have implied).

It wasn't as prominent in the third novel which just came out. Maybe Disney got a clue. If they do ANYTHING to jeopardize the BILLIONS they make from Star Wars merchandising by insulting the families with children, they deserve to go down.

If Disney wants to do movies with gay characters and/or themes, I don't have a problem with that. I do have a problem with them inserting gay characters/themes in the remake of a classic that never had one/any. I'd be interested to see how this happened, who made the decision to do this.

My wife and daughters would normally see a movie like this but are turned off by that nag Emma Watson. They told me Miss Watson refused to wear a corset for the ball gown because if offended her feminist sensibilities.

I wonder if Ms. Watson wears Spanx and/or any other brand of shapewear? If so, Ms. Watson is a flaming hypocrite.

I don’t intend to see Disney go down in flames, that’s why I seek to reform it, and I may have to do it by force if necessary.

As far as the Aftermath trilogy, no kidding there, especially when I’ve seen some of the writing from excerpts, and it... sorry, but it was less than impressive, and that’s from the first book. And the third book arguably spat on Palpatine’s character as well (let’s just say that, spoiler alert, Palpatine’s last wish is to have the entire galaxy commit suicide due to his dying). I get it, he’s a megalomaniacal ruler, but from the films that I’ve seen (and that’s ignoring Legends, BTW), not once did I EVER get the impression that Palpatine would have been the type to be so petulant and selfish as to actually have the galaxy be obliterated just because he died and thus obviously can’t rule over it any more. Don’t forget, this was the same guy who literally tried to goad Anakin and Luke Skywalker in Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi, respectively, into outright killing him in cold blood just to guarantee that they turn to the Dark Side at all (and the former case had even higher stakes against Palpatine as well, since not only had he not even become Emperor yet or formed the Empire, but he hadn’t even gotten a replacement Sith Apprentice yet), and in the former movie when about to duel with Yoda, he freely acknowledges that Vader will become far more powerful than even himself with apparent excitement. Heck, one of the Marvel Comics post-Disney acquisition even has Palpatine outright admit that the reason he saved Vader on Mustafar was because he was an integral part of his Empire. If he was perfectly willing to lose his life and certainly any degree of control over the Galaxy just for the prospect of getting a new adherent to the Sith, not to mention saving Vader even with the risk of Vader overthrowing him while in his armor, do you seriously think he would have been the type to have a contingency plan in the event of his death to essentially have the galaxy commit suicide out of what was essentially a temper tantrum?

With this one article, Disney has alienated the mainstream audience.

If you haven’t posted to your Facebook accounts about this, get it out there. You may be flamed by some ‘friends’ but it is the best way to get the word out about what Disney has done.
