You weren’t planning to see it anyway and you are right to avoid it.
This film is a Pedomouse spectacular. Lightyear is a product of Reimagine Tomorrow. The lesbian kiss was the least of it.
The entire film is centered around the lesbian relationship. In fact the lesbians get pregnant. So, forget about awkward questions from your seven year old about two women in love. Pedomouse wants you to have discussions about how two women can get each other knocked up. That is the family conversation Disney/Pixar is pushing with Lightyear.
Then there are the values this film is pushing like a bulldozer:
“Let’s just say that Lightyear does not deal in subtle messages. Instead, it has a mission to convince you that meritocracy is bad, masculinity and instinctual decisions are wrong, and we all need to accept each other as we are with all of our flaws rather than to see the potential in each person. It dives into those themes with the nuance of a caffeinated kid with a baseball bat swinging for a pinata.
In order to prove to you that you must accept others with all of their flaws, and that merit is wrong, Buzz Lightyear is stuck with three of the most annoying, incompetent characters I have ever witnessed on any movie screen. When they appear, and they are there much or most of the time, I could not help but understand exactly why Buzz wants away from them. They are infantile and imbecilic. Buzz already accepts that he is not the best Space Ranger. And in this movie he already takes the blame for events that seem totally out of his control for which he is not guilty. But that is not enough. This Buzz Lightyear must lower himself to a group that is wholly inadequate for the mission at hand, rather than being a noble leader. And when the movie is over, the final lesson is that failure is okay.”
Lightyear’s budget was $200 million. It is currently tracking at $70 to $80 million for the opening weekend. Given how long it was on the shelf and how many countries won’t be showing it, this film has to gross at least $500 million to make breakeven. The Dark Herald predicts with confidence that Lightyear will fall off a cliff next weekend and the weekend after that, Minions: The Rise of Gru will kill it off completely.
Pixar has reached the final stage of SJW Convergence. It is no longer capable of carrying out it’s core functions.
Disney just announced that no one in California will be relocated until 2026. Four years is such a long period of time, I’m beginning to consider the possibility that Chapek has no plans to move anyone at all.
Because they aren’t going to be working for Disney anymore.
I have a nephew who claims to be “gay.” I love him not one ounce less because of his perversity, but neither will I excuse or accept it in any way. I have witnessed far too many who convince themselves that by supporting their loved ones’ “LGBTQWXYZ+++” delusion they are somehow doing something noble, while in reality they are dooming both that individual and the culture and nation at large by being weak and foolish.
Might not last very long .... with the Disney employees getting busted right and left for child solicitation, there soon be enough left to run the park and make movies.
“I’m not sure how to stop them.”
That is Putin’s job.

My husband grew up on Disney.
He said the other day that he wants nothing to do with them or their products again.
I saw my last Disney movie several years ago. I’m through with them.
Good news! Disney share price is below $100. HaHa!

Hollywood accounting

According to Lucasfilm, Return of the Jedi, despite having earned $475 million at the box office against a budget of $32.5 million, “has never gone into profit”
Art Buchwald received a settlement from Paramount after his lawsuit Buchwald v. Paramount. The court found Paramount’s actions “unconscionable”, noting that it was impossible to believe that Eddie Murphy’s 1988 comedy Coming to America, which grossed $288 million, failed to make a profit, especially since the actual production costs were less than a tenth of that. Paramount settled for $900,000,[8] rather than have its accounting methods closely scrutinized.

No need for millstones when some rope salesmen could use some business during these recessionary times.
I would have been fine with it if they weren’t coming for our kids. Now that they’re coming for our kids, the fewer I know, the better.
Good grief. In that case, he can go to Davos and get a room with Klaus Schwab!

Does wokeness have any redeeming qualities?
I thought they explained that in the first movie, they used frog DNA, and that some frogs are asexual.
But that’s exactly the “none of my business” fallacy that inevitably leads to the mess we have now. The critical decision point that let the genie out of the bottle was not when “they came for our kids”; it was when homosexuality began to be tolerated in the first place. The rest is just the inevitable outcome of permitting open homosexual behavior in society. It’s like saying, “I’m fine with letting Bengal tigers roam the neighborhood so long as they don’t start eating people. The critical decision was to let the tigers out in the first place.
I’m really sick to death of the “go along get along” libertarian types that make a display of their “tolerance” of social debauchery, but then finally want to draw a line when the entirely predictable avalanche of consequences happens to cross their own arbitrary red line. As I said earlier, Edmund Burke was right on target when he pointed out that evil flourishes not because of the evil men, but because of good men who refuse to do anything to stop it (“none of my business”).
