Theater refuses to show 'Beauty and the Beast' over gay character
WAAY ^ | March 3, 2017 | Patrick Ary

A DeKalb County theater will not be showing the new "Beauty and the Beast" film when it is released because it features a gay character.

The Henagar Drive-In Theatre posted on its Facebook page Thursday night that it would not show the film when it is released later this month, due to it featuring Disney's first gay character.

"If I can't sit through a movie with God or Jesus sitting by me then we have no business showing it," a post on the theater's Facebook page said.

The theater has since deleted its Facebook page.

I agree all those anti Bush anti war movies during his 8 years failed

Everyone except maybe Traverse City Jabba’s ultra low budget one

Yet Spielberg ...Geffen...Katzenberg ....Weinstein....kept churning the junk out

And they’ll do it again with more vigor

We had a beauty salon open up in my neighborhood called “BEAUTY AND THE BEAST”. You could have your dog groomed while having your hair done.

Turns out it is against California health laws and never got to open. :o/

I saw a combo dog grooming/boarding place in a strip mall in Austin TX recently called “The Happy Mailman”

So will this gay character be depicted going all Brokeback Mountain with another character? After all, if you want controversy, you might as well deserve it.

Oh my! This theater might lose 2% of their customers over that stance.

Disney and the homosexuals don’t care about the theaters showing it. They want it on DVD and Netflix so kids can see it over and over again for years.

We were planning on going to Disney this summer. Time to find another vacation spot.

I think you're right. All the christian women at my old office didn't mind programs with homosexual characters. Their kids watched Glee and were Disney fans.

It’s not just movies, but tv shows, there is even a GAY cable channel. Disney is deep into this crap.

Does Disney’s Heather has 2 Mommies have a R rating? Are parents per-warned it contains questionable sexual content?

There is no such warning on Super Girl which now has a lesbian couple. Besides Flash’s by racial 2 couples.

I wonder if many independent theaters might do the same.

A biography of Walt Disney showed that he had his faults. Nevertheless, what he sold included an effort to build on positive institutions.

If this is Disney today, it might be better if the company ceased to exist.

Disney and ABC are pushing the homo agenda as much as possible.
It is like handing the world a dog poop sandwich and claiming it is ham on rye. We refuse to bite because we know it is a dog poop sandwich.

On a side note, how many movies would have had a much higher viewership if the foul language had been removed?
I can’t count the number of films that have had filthy language which added NOTHING to the story, and would have lost nothing without it, but the ratings, due to the language, kept people away.
Movie makers could learn, but they don’t. Instead they insist on compounding the problems by adding gay stuff to children’s stories.
Oh well, it’s a fairy tale. Gotta add fairies.
