Eternals banned in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait after Disney refuses gay cuts – reports
the Guardian ^

Posted on 11/04/2021 2:12:29 PM PDT by BenLurkin

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the $200m movie will not be released in the Gulf region countries after being removed from local sites. The studio has yet to comment or confirm but sources claim that the reason is a kiss between Brian Tyree Henry’s character and his on-screen husband, played by Haaz Sleiman. It marks the first gay kiss in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Homosexuality is still illegal across much of the region and is punishable by death in both Saudi Arabia and Qatar. A local cinema chain confirmed to the trade that the film was “banned” but had no explanation provided.

In Singapore, Eternals has become the first Marvel Cinematic Universe film to gain an M18 certificate, which restricts audiences to those aged 18 and older. A spokesperson for the country’s Infocomm Media Development Authority confirmed that it was a result of “homosexual references”. The film also contains a sex scene between two heterosexual characters.

“I work in Hollywood and contracted to Disney.”

Out of curiosity, do you think it was as woke and poorly done as, say, the all female “Ghostbusters?” That was purely gross. Or, was the scene done as an integral part of the storyline where it was used to push the story forward?

As long as a scene is used as an integral part of the story and the story won’t work without it, then it’s probably pretty good. But the writing on much of the stuff I’ve watched reviews on just creates a Mary Sue and throws political stuff in that has no relationship to the plot. I understand all of those movies have bombed. The latest “Dr. Who” comes to mind. I used to love Dr. Who. Then I caught a later version of Dr. Who, a male, suddenly deep-tonging some other man. I turned it off. Apparently, the female Dr. Who has already cratered. Same with the latest Bond movie.

“I work in Hollywood and contracted to Disney”

A woman from my hometown was a private executive chef to numerous stars and Hollywood management.

She said there are many closet conservatives in Hollywood

She would be working at some of the houses and Fox News was always on or she would be in the kitchen and a group of people at a party would in there making fun of liberals kin the lotger room....or she would see conservtive mail such as RNC mailers on their countertops.

She retired a few years ago and moved back to my hometown due to health reasons.

She signed strict NDA agreements

It should be banned for being “diverse”.

If Black Panther was actually nominated for best picture I can’t imagine this thing not taking home the Oscar.

****

I normally get free “courtesy” DVD’s weeks before the release. The guy who hands them over to us from the studios is a bit “chatty”, and he would give us the summary which is annoying but there’s a twist: he tells us the lefty parts if there are any homo fag scenes etc. I worked on a certain show on AMC, and more than a few would not wat to renew their contracts when they add homo characters.
