Then what the hell was Inside Out 1 & 2?
And Soul??
If Brave isn’t considered therapy I don’t know what is
Representation is not therapy, people need therapy because so much of the world is scared of other people being represented.
The three-time Oscar-winning writer-director behind Up, Inside Out and Soul said he believes Pixar will continue to be “useful” to parent company Disney so long as it focuses on producing quality films. “If we’re going to just crank crap out, let’s shut the doors. I’d rather die trying to make something that we genuinely believe in,” he said.
Physics dictates if he were to mention Toy Story 5 in the same sentence he’d be instantly crushed by the irony.
That’s a load from crapster cranker and franchise destroyer Disney. Get fucked you soulless monsters.
Disney is too much of a coward, movies flop, blames fans. Rinse, repeat.
Why, thanks for disseminating the queerphobic talking point that seeing queer people makes children require therapy, Mr. Wholesome-Pixar-Movie-Guy. (Yes, I know the statement can be read differently, but it resembles the right-wing’s narrative to a T, so there is no reason to assume he meant anything different.)
No you’re actually spot on. Douche bag was even talking to a conservative paper.
Docter told the Wall Street Journal bluntly of the reasoning behind the creative overhaul, in which the Walt Disney Studios subsidiary found that some parents didn’t want media to broach topics they weren’t ready to discuss with their children
It’s really not hard to discuss someone being gay with your kids… unless you’re a bigot.
Yeah that’s the wild thing about this whole argument, it’s always because the parents are uncomfortable with the discussion. Children barely give a shit, you tell them the facts and they’re like “oh okay” and carry on with their life.
Children often just fully do not understand joke intent because they take things at face value and do not yet understand context or subtext so they take information in a very black and white way.
They would accept the fact that gay people exist if you just tell them, they don’t understand the world context revolving around it or why it might be controversial, because all of that shit is taught.
I’m not expressing a novel point of view here, but a large set of parents (many of whom falsely believe they “have no problem with gay people”) are terrified that their kid might be gay. They falsely believe that hiding the topic of homosexuality will ensure that their kid is “normal.”
If they can just keep that information hidden from their child until they’re 18 then they can’t become gay!
That’s how it works right?
Sounds like Pete Doctor is why Pixar movies no longer resonate with people.
What were the other Pixar movies then???
No they’re just trying to minimize the complaints they get from the right wing lunatic side of the internet, meanwhile those lunatics are still calling them woke for including women and brown people.
Also from China. China is a huge cash source for them, so selling out is a necessity if they want their hundred million dollar bonus this year.
Well fuck off into the sun, Mr. Bug’s Life
Something that is generalised for everybody appeals to nobody.
“well we can’t have this hardcore murderer doing too much violence and murder, or we might lose the young families, so let’s tone down the murderviolence in this murderviolence-fraught franchise.” -Some executive who doesn’t realize they never had those families in the first place but now they’ve lost a lot of the fans
Hmm, sounds like someone that has become immoral and corrupt. Also entirely possible Disney has decreed what they want Pixar to be doing and he’s parroting their talking points.
Either way, sounds like Pixar is in the shitter now, which is really disheartening to hear.
