Disney’s ‘Strange World’ is set to feature the first “gay teen romance” in animated feature film

Disney’s upcoming adventure film “Strange World” will feature a gay teen romance — the first in an animated feature produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. The film, which is scheduled to open on Nov. 23, will follow three generations of a family of explorers and take viewers “to a place of infinite mystery unlike anything you’ve ever seen,” according to a trailer released by the studio earlier this month.

Several Hollywood powerhouses have been confirmed as part of the voice cast, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Gabrielle Union, Lucy Liu, Dennis Quaid and Jaboukie Young-White. On Friday, Disney screened three sequences from the film at the 2022 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, one of the world’s most important festivals for the film animation industry that takes place in the city of Annecy, in southeast France.

In one of them, Ethan (Young-White) flirts with a boy named Diazo in front of his friends, who tease him in a friendly way. His father, Searcher Clade (Gyllenhaal), later joins in and embarrasses him in “an overeager show of acceptance,” as the scene is described by Variety.

Emmy Award-winning producer Matthieu Saghezchi, who also saw the sequence, wrote on Twitter that the scene is “very endearing” and it’s “treated as the most natural thing in the world.”

“The scene describes the son being very shy in front of his boy crush, and his dad comes in and says “so nice to meet you! my son talks about you all the time” and further embarrasses his son,” Saghezchi wrote. “Very cute.” The refreshing nod to inclusivity comes as “Lightyear,” the much-anticipated “Toy Story” spinoff, was reportedly banned in 14 countries over a brief same-sex kiss.

The Disney-Pixar computer-animated adventure film starring Chris Evans as the voice of Buzz Lightyear features a kiss between Alisha, voiced by the actress Uzo Aduba, and her wife Kiko. On Monday, the United Arab Emirates announced that the film would not be shown in the country “due to its violation of the country’s media standards.”

I’d never pay to see it, but I wouldn’t mind watching a copy of the Saudi Arabia export version just for laughs. /smirk

On Monday, the United Arab Emirates announced that the film would not be shown in the country “due to its violation of the country’s media standards.”

According to Reuters, at least 13 other countries in Asia and the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia and Lebanon, have also banned the film.

AND the lesbos have a BABY, which horrified parents are forced to "explain" to young children. The media always leaves that part out and claims it's just "a brief kiss!"

I guess they will replace the “It’s a small world” ride with it’s a strange world. Only children below 12 allowed.

Its a Strange world
its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange, strange world

its a world of laughter and a world of tears
its a world of hopes and a world of fears
there’s so much that we share
that is time we’re aware
its a strange world after all

its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange, strange world

there is just one moon
and one golden sun
and a smile means friendship to everyone
though the mountains divide
and the oceans are wide

its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange world after all
its a strange,, strange world

I predict another epic failure, similar to Lightyear.

I’ll still watch the narnia trilogy, Pinocchio, the jungle book and the lion king from time to time, but I am otherwise done with the Walt Disney company unless they see the error of their ways, which is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

“BTW, at the entrance of Universal there is a “FASTPASS” you can buy for the park(s), for an additional fee - seriously consider doing this. Think of it as Unlimited FastPass, all day long, for all rides.”

We are staying at the lower end of Universal’s Premier Resorts, (found a fantastic deal online), and the Fastpass comes with the room.

Suffice it to say, our 6 day visit to Universal, with fastpass, will cost us LESS than purchasing ONLY park tickets at Disney and staying in a low-end resort, (say Pop Century), for 2 nights.

I’m so done with Disney! Love the resorts! Love the parks!

That said, I will not longer pay their intolerable prices, or suffer their intolerable political child-grooming positions.

See ya real soon, Universal!

Did the same thing a few years ago. Spent 5 days at Disney, and then planned 3 days at Universal, just because we were already in Orlando. We won’t be returnging to Disney anytime soon, it’s just too expensive for what we got. Universal won by a landslide.

The FastPass you have, is an unbelievable bargain. We got poolside at the Universal Cabana Bay Resort for like $150/night, which was phenomenal, the Fastpass was on us - and well worth the money. The food at Univeral was better, the rides much more wild, and with the FastPass; we had a blast.

I hope you have an amazing time.
