Warning to parents: Pixar's New Short Film 'Out' Features a Gay Protagonist
Yahoo News ^ | 05/23/2020 | Philip Ellis

The newest short film in Pixar Animation Studios' SparkShorts series, Out, began streaming on Disney+ on Friday. The 9-minute movie centers on a gay man named Greg, who is excited to move in with his boyfriend, Manuel. There's just one problem: Greg hasn't come out to his parents yet. When they show up unexpectedly on his doorstep on moving day, Greg (with the help of his dog) rushes to hide who he really is at first... but then a magical twist of fate turns everything upside down.

Out is the first Pixar movie to include a main character who is explicitly gay, and whose identity is key to the story. While plenty of characters in Disney and Pixar films have been interpreted to be coded as queer, most notably Elsa in the Frozen movies, actual visible LGBTQ+ representation has been incredibly thin on the ground. Which means Out has, unsurprisingly, received praise for its inclusive storytelling. (oh, please)

Phillip is a single gay man.

He didn’t write this as a warning to parents (that does bot appear in either article on the web at Yahoo or Queer Men’s Health).

Rather, this man CELEBRATES it.

“Judging from the way the short seems to have spoken to so many viewers on a personal level (and ignoring the regressive a-holes who lose it at the idea of non-straight people existing), it’s not unreasonable to suggest that Hunter’s directorial debut is a hit.”

50,000,000 dead babies yet Netflix hasn’t declared that any of those individuals were necessary.

That’s pretty accurate for tv and movies today. Sad

Actually the protagonist is just an ordinary run of the mill queer

It occurs to me that I really should have been born around 1770.
