In 2021, Disney greenlit Strange World, an animated movie about a family journeying through a mysterious land to save a resource that’s losing its energy. Bob Iger, who is returning to Disney to “save” it from Bob Chapek’s sad tenure, was still on board in 2021, so he must have greenlit it. That’s a relevant fact because the movie bombed at the box office. Coincidentally or not, the movie has an openly gay subtext as one of the main male characters crushes on another boy.
Before the movie opened, the media wanted audiences to know about the gay romance, probably under the mistaken belief that audiences would care:
Disney’s upcoming adventure film “Strange World” will feature a gay teen romance — the first in an animated feature produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios.

On Friday, Disney screened three sequences from the film at the 2022 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, one of the world’s most important festivals for the film animation industry that takes place in the city of Annecy, in southeast France.
In one of them, Ethan (Young-White) flirts with a boy named Diazo in front of his friends, who tease him in a friendly way.
His father, Searcher Clade (Gyllenhaal), later joins in and embarrasses him in “an overeager show of acceptance,” as the scene is described by Variety.
People in the entertainment world were charmed:
The scene describes the son being very shy in front of his boy crush, and his dad comes in and says “so nice to meet you! my son talks about you all the time” and further embarrasses his son 🙈😂 very cute. — Matthieu Saghezchi (@MSaghezchi) June 17, 2022
Not quite sure why audiences seem to be rejecting #StrangeWorld .

But yeah, thinking about it some more, it’s probable that the failure is mostly because Disney isn’t supposed to be pushing children into a lifestyle that is unhealthy. No matter how the LGBTQ crowd tries to dress it up, we know that they have more substance abuse, partner abuse, depression, and suicide than the general population—and that’s true no matter how supportive the greater culture is.
Additionally, you only have to watch the videos the LGBTQ crowd posts on Twitter and TikTok to see that these are unhappy people. No parent wants that for his or her child. So, much as Disney wants to push the lifestyle, American parents don’t want that kind of pressure.
Bottom line: wallowing in feces isn’t romantic.
Given Disney’s pool of animated characters I don’t know why they aren’t going full bestiality yet.
Gyllenhaal was also one of the queers in Brokeback Mountain (if I am remembering correctly).
Our adult kid has collected all of our Disney movies, videos, books, collectibles, and memorabilia from Disney's past. Any future grandchild will be shown these rather than what Disney has chosen the past decade+.
Also read where Dizzyland has to make at least 2 billion dollars to just break even on their Avitar2 movie.
We need to be more honest about what is really going on here.
Homosexuality and heterosexuality are terms of Freudian invention. They are both pure pathological nonsense.
All of it is sexism.
Sexes have a purpose and it is demeaned by homosexuality.
Homosexuality says the opposite sex is irrelevant.
I’ve been done with Disney for years.....go woke ...go broke!!!!
Gay is so 2021. Disney will catch up by making a movie about trans.
“Given Disney’s pool of animated characters I don’t know why they aren’t going full bestiality yet.”
What, you’ve never seen the directors cut of “Beauty And The Beast”?

Possibly it just sucks...period.
Why do all of them sell out to Disney?
What next? The Terminator?
Heck, they have Stormtroopers in Disneyworld.
Was it an odorama production?

Any person supporting companies like disney proves the term useful idiot is appropriate.
I guess you haven’t seen avatar?
A Disney movie featuring gay characters bombed? Walt heard what is happened to Disney and he decided to write: ‘Do Not Defrost! I don’t want to live where Morons and Idiots ruined my company and country.’ 🤓
Bigger news is that Disney + ran a loss. Streaming is suppose to be about printing money. The only question should be how much? Netflix price was savaged because it make a smaller profit than expected. The fact Disney can’t make a profit at it? What does that mean for the service? Or for Disney?
Still wondering if this movie was in fact a money laundering scheme...
$180+ mil....
Uh huh.
