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.”

Wow, a gay company, with a gay director and gay actors-- now, a gay moment-- who would have guessed??

[Dilbert San Diego]

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

[brucedickinson]

gay company, gay director and gay actors

[stars & stripes forever]

DISNEY will let the movie flop in the theaters, then run it continually on the DISNEY STATION and FREE FORM.

Wasn’t Gason the candlestick in the animated version? I always knew something was up when they used that phallic symbol. That is so gay!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Because it’s ALWAYS about THEM.

[originalbuckeye]

[MagUSNRET]

Walt disney once expressed reservations about Annette Funicello wearing a bikini. Now this? Sorry this company is not true to its founder, a travesty.

No one has hidden Homosexual frustrations like GASTON!

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

No, he was the guy who wanted to marry Belle. I won't say in love with her because the only thing he was in love with was his reflection. Sort of like Obama now that I think of it.

[ThePatriotsFlag]

They can inject it into a show that has nothing to do with homosexuality just like they injected it into our churches. Walt Disney would kick their corporate a$$es around the Maguc Kingdom were he alive to see what they have done to his beautiful idea. One last trip to Disney World for this old guy? Cancelled.

The low-IQ people watching this crap were already in the “D” column; this is to ensure their children are as well.

[brucedickinson]

On opening night, the gang at Disney should sacrifice some goats to assure a bountiful theater-presence.

[TXBlair]

Pass.

[petitfour]

How sad. My daughter’s best friends want to celebrate their birthday by taking friends to see this movie. Guess who won’t be going!

inject homosexuality into a tale

First of all, ew. Second of all, gross.

I know, I know...different spelling.

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

Because they want to declare bankruptcy and injecting homosexuality into it ensures that it will kill all ticket sales by 98 % of the population?
