Meanwhile, the comic strip “For Better or For Worse” (re-runs from many years ago) is running the series where the next-door neighbor boy Lawrence tells Mike and then his mother Connie that he is gay—and is thrown out of the house by his step-father. Naturally the strip is very sympathetic to Lawrence and the step-father is the bad guy. But why even have a story on that topic?

Sadly, there are plenty of clueless folks who are to self absorbed to pay attention to what’s going on. And if the kiddies say “I WANT IT NOW!”, they’ll get it.

Recent polling indicates that almost 70% of the American population dis-approves of the new Disney direction.

LOL! IIRC Orlando was in ‘67 and Anaheim was ‘55? I remember the Orlando part because I DIDN’T go to Navy boot camp in Orlando but ended up in Chicongo in ‘67. (Well just outside Chicongo) Regardless, it has spiraled out of control. A band I was in played an event back lot in Orlando(not FOR a dizzknee event) in the mid 2000s and folks that worked there all said they had to watch what they said and did since there were audio and video monitoring on 24/7 just about everywhere.

HUH? Sort of a ‘hamilton’ the gay daze? If one could ID as a little person trans bipoc, the world would be their oyster. LOL!

Yep, how to kill a brand in one easy step: go woke.

Disney is dead to me. Just one of those things that used to be around like manual typewriters and rotary dial phones. There used to be this company that put out decent (in all senses of the word) if slightly predictable and formula-driven entertainment. As far as I'm concerned they no-longer exist, which is true. That company no-longer exists. Now there is just a criminal pedophile enterprise bent on grooming children.

And just who is going to watch it?

Your children in school when forced to by teachers whether you like it or not. What are you going to do about it? Yeah, nothing.

Post of the day. Wake up, Freepers.

Rueby Woods is a minor and obviously has parents who condone his prancing fairy performance. One might think his parents are a same sex couple.

As for the movieโ€ฆit might play well in New York, West Hollywood and other gay enclaves, but will it be a box office smash? I have my doubts that anyone but queer folk would want to see this movie and Disney rightfully will have a huge loss in its production.

My children are long ago grown up as are my grandchildren.
Nobody's forcing any great grand children of mine to watch woke gay nonsense against their will.
They may get away with that garbage in New York and California, not in red states like Florida where Disney is getting clobbered by DeSantis.

What are you going to do about it? Yeah, nothing.

Except I already did when I got the heck out of New York.

Now that Hamilton made money I expect we will see all sorts of trans bipocs getting in on the action of the Revolutionary war. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see Marie Antoinette was secretly the real ‘king’ of France.

Disney can crash and burn for all I care, as long as the good films in its catalogue -- the old classics, of course, but probably some of the newer ones as well -- are recycled on other platforms.

I know I'm a Johnny One-Note on this, but I think that when we get done with raining anathemas on Disney or Hollywood in general, which is shooting fish in a barrel, we should pause to point out the good films that are still being made. We can at least support the saving remnant who aren't just woke sock puppets and who still endeavor to make honest films. So for the record, here is my current working list of "new" films that freepers have endorsed/recommended on recent movie threads. My definition of "new" here is flexible because some films premiered in festivals in 2021 but aren't reaching audiences until this year. So these are 2021/22 freeper favorites.

I've not seen them all, and a couple I didn't care for personally, but enough freepers have endorsed them that they merit mention. None of them are highly or obnoxiously woke; the filmmakers may be personally liberal, but if they tell honest stories without putting a cheating thumb on the scale, they can still make good movies. There may be a gay character here and there, but none of them are gay propaganda films. And everybody keeps their clothes on, with an asterisk for Drive My Car, which has two(?) scenes with nudity early in the film before moving on to an otherwise fully clothed movie. Drive My Car, of course, is a Japanese film and was a surprise breakout hit. A surprising number of freepers have seen it, and as far as I know, all of us who have seen it seem to like it. The nudity is fairly tame by current U.S. television standards, but it stands out on this list in contrast to the other films.

With no further ado: NEW "freeper endorsed" films, listed by date of release: The Dig: CODA; I'm Your Man; After Yang; Stillwater; Drive My Car; Free Guy; Old Henry; The Last Duel; Montana Story; The Most Reluctant Convert: The Untold Story of C.S. Lewis; West Side Story.

I don't think any of these are Disney films.

I think that all of these are now streaming on various platforms except Montana Story, which is still playing at festivals. Bleeker Street has announced a May 13 release date. If you want to beat the lines, it is available online right now through the Seattle International Film Festival: Montana Story It's an indie family drama, entirely character drive, well written, and brilliantly acted. If you think that sounds like indie navel gazing, it may not be your cup of tea, but it involves decent, attractive, responsible, and thoroughly relatable characters dealing with real (and unfortunately all too common) life issues, as opposed to freakshow weirdness or dysfunctional, self-destructive behavior. And everyone is dressed appropriately throughout for Montana weather in October; there is no nudity or sex.

Other suggestions? NEW movies (2021/22) that you enjoyed enough to recommend?

Oh, yeah: %^$#@( Disney. Who needs Disney? Watch the films listed above if you're sick of a steady diet of streamer filler.

Correct.

You feed them the line they want when you call it “gay”. It is not. It is grooming. Non-parents talking to non-adults about sex is predatory and grooming.

Call it what it is, unless you support it.

P.S. Montana Story will win this year’s Oscar for Best Use of Dante’s Inferno in a feature film (they somehow make the circles of hell work naturally in dialogue in a modern film). And maybe a second Oscar for Best Product Placement (for Verizon Wireless). I’m guessing the Verizon mention reflected the filmmakers’ on-location experiences with dead spots in rural Montana.

And dinner doesn’t come from the frozen food section at the supermarket. A chicken made the ultimate sacrifice. It’s probably only a matter of time before PETA starts protesting, although PETA will also have to deal with the fishing boat in CODA.

The performance of Hamilton had nothing to do with one trans character.
You can't assume other plays with a trans character will do great. Disney is not doing great in Florida right now after their trans nonsense and DeSantis is sailing happily to an easy reelection.

Soccer mom’s and their kids are going to watch it. These are the same soccer moms who give their daughters and their boyfriends a bottle of wine and tell them to go into the bedroom and see what happens.
