My censored IMDB review Excellent gritty action. Best since T2. Solid kick-ass effects. Crybabies can suck it. Season 3 was an absolute FLOP Who is the woman who complained about his sexual harassment? WTF is it all about? Who the F--k knows? Ghostbusters sucked Jupiter Ascending caused sex change What's with the censorship? View all posts >

<blockquote>So what else are the problems with Lightyear exactly then?</blockquote> In the first 3 minutes the straight white male lead (Buzz) is portrayed as foolish, pretentious and ashamed of himself in front of the practical, wise, superior LGBT officer. This theme continues throughout the movie. If you ever watched the original Toy Story, Buzz is 100% confident. He would never feel foolish about recording a mission log, for example. So the whole premise of Lightyear misrepresents the Buzz character from before Toy Story, for the sake of Disney's DEI agenda. Here's a youtube link that covers most of the problems: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEiUSLmyIaw So your answer is "no, I don't have a sensible question". <blockquote>I am specifically referring to your outrage over Lightyear.</blockquote> What outrage? My post is clear and concise. Your strawman response is weak. You seem as dumb as a post, so I probably should explain what strawman means. A strawman is when you attempt to refute an argument never made. In this case you claim I am "outraged" about a kiss scene when I specifically said "nobody cares about a kiss scene". The wider issue of DEI policies influencing everything from characters in stories to how many white pilots can be hired in aviation, is the problem. The censorship of reviews on IMDB that mention DEI policies in movies, is another problem. Capeesh? No, I'm complaining about Disney's inclusion standards contaminating the creative process. [1] Do you have any sensible questions? [1] https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GFsCz9qX0AAQiD8?format=jpg&name=large An anonymous source just sent Disney's "inclusion standards" document to Elon Musk, according to his post on X. <blockquote>https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GFsCz9qX0AAQiD8?format=jpg&name=large</blockquote> This is the kind of thing I'm talking about. All those mandates and rules permeate the fabric of creativity and expression. You can write a good story at Disney, provided it goes through the inclusion sausage machine. Box-ticking creative dictators, weirdos acting like members of some sick socialist brainwashing cult. "Reason: Other Your contribution has been declined.We did not capture a specific reason during processing." We all know the reason. It's because I criticised DEI messaging. Take a movie like Monsters Inc. There's no obvious politics in there. The most you could find is the value of happy kids over scared kids. There's no ridiculous side-hustle plots about gay couples, and there's no self-conscious balance of skin colour representation. Pixar should stick with universal values relatable to everyone, like those found in Monsters Inc, not the divisive identity politics of trumped up grievances around sexuality and race. <blockquote>So what it if there's a same sex kiss in this movie?</blockquote> The majority of people have no issues with same sex couples. But clearly Disney/Pixar make a conscious effort to push their agenda on certain themes and social issues front and center. As if people look to Disney for how to think and live their lives, rather than simply to find escape in fantastic other-worldly stories. The issue is when it's forced into the story as a priority. It's not subtle, and it's getting worse. Kids fiction writers and movie studios shouldn't be in the business of injecting political activist content in movies. It comes across as creepy and has a propaganda vibe. Unsurprisingly, people are getting tired of this shit. It's not healthy for the integrity of art when such issues are awkwardly forced on viewers, pretending to be effortlessly blended with the story. "Nothing to see here"! It's like when activists and social justice tantrum throwers, infiltrate HR departments in companies, guilt-tripping DEI mandates because "too many white people" is a problem according to their ideology. They open a door to a room, and if they see 5 people all white, they see a problem that needs "fixing". DEI in principle sounds fine until you notice they often put down one group in order to elevate another. NOBODY cares about a same sex kiss. People care about the forced agenda of shoving it in front of viewers not for the sake of the story, but to appease the "DEI Consultants" the studio hires in turn to appease a certain political view in some sections of audiences and media. I'm not clicking those, please summarise them in a paragraph or two, since you created the thread, you should post some actual words not just links! Bad idea Amazon. Neighbours is one of the most overrated pieces of garbage in TV history. Terrible acting, boring, lifeless stories. It's just boring people sitting around in obvious studio set houses, whinging about nothing, with long concerned gazes whenever someone leaves the room. Cut to the person in the room who now has a worried look on their stupid face. That's it. That's what Neighbours is, nothing more. The "lifer" actors were in auto-pilot. Zombies of rubbish TV. Amazon has been fooled into believing people *seriously* like this show, enough to keep watching after it was put down. The truth is, very few people like it. It was "liked" as a joke, but absolutely nobody really cared about the story, actors, or anything about it. Most were happy to see it end. Amazon are fools for going anywhere near this garbage. LOL, 1887. Nobody denies historical racism. But we live in the 21st century now, not the 19th century. In 500 years from now the few remaining Woke nutjobs will still be crying "RaCiZZMmm". Laws have been in place for a long time that prevent discrimination. If you are discriminated against based on race, or other things such as disability or gender, you can sue. That's how it is now. That's the system we live in. So your position in this debate relies on some kind of vaporous after-glow of historical racism you insist is tangible and real today... in the "sYsTeM" and the mind's of old white men! You want intellectual honesty? You need to come to the same table, bud. You probably name-call your way around the internet, but it makes you look foolish just so you know. View all replies >
