It's almost like they are the sexist stereotype so they're replacement is a really bland sexist stereotype. Lol

I actually think Moana did the love and compassion defeating the big bad thing really well, even though there where a lot of things wrong with that movie it did a lot of things right too

2019-01-08 13:25:39 UTC  

People really did their best to pull controversy out the ass for that movie in particular, good times

2019-01-08 13:38:10 UTC  

Did they?

2019-01-08 13:38:20 UTC  

I don't remember hearing much

2019-01-08 13:43:19 UTC  

The usual SJW “it’s not good enough” as well as a bunch of people doing the “OMG this is SJW garbage, MC is a Mary Sue”

2019-01-08 13:44:30 UTC  

Also Disney marketing be like “hey look our first black princess, look how progressive we are now!” That didn’t really help.

2019-01-08 14:05:14 UTC  

Like Princess and the Frog or Atlantas never happened, I also count Nala from Lion King since she is obviously meant to be African

2019-01-08 14:07:36 UTC  

If you want just people of colour you then also have Mulan, Jasmine, Pocahontas... also not really a princess but Esmeralda and Lilo too, and vast majority of these well before all the cries for diversity

They can't be pleased. Not unless you had a fully female everything.

2019-01-08 14:12:29 UTC  

Maybe a throwaway gay black man.

2019-01-08 14:13:00 UTC  

Probably the comic relief coz they are homophobic under the surface.

2019-01-08 14:19:25 UTC  

Actually hands down my favourite Disney movie ever is Lilo and Stitch, that movie is just straight up tough to watch in certain parts, it has this thing called nuance that seems to escape most people

2019-01-08 14:25:28 UTC  

Also I know it’s more recent and Pixar but Coco ruined me emotionally xD

2019-01-08 14:38:37 UTC  

Coco was interesting too because the main antagonistic force for the majority of the movie is the overbearing great grandmother and the resentment she held over her husband for a thing that wasn’t even his fault, and the movie isn’t resolved until she sucks up her pride and admit she was in the wrong.

2019-01-08 16:29:09 UTC  

@Abbysol Lilo and Stitch? I watched that a few weeks ago. I ran out of horror films and felt like something lighter.

2019-01-08 16:29:39 UTC  

@Abbysol and, wow, Coco is about THAT?

2019-01-08 16:29:53 UTC  

In this day and age?

2019-01-08 16:29:57 UTC  

Lol

2019-01-08 16:30:10 UTC  

Wow. What did the critics say?

2019-01-08 16:30:34 UTC  

Lemmie guess: the Guardian hated it. XD

Hello @cold !

2019-01-08 20:43:20 UTC  

Actually no, in the later half of the film the main antagonist shifts and it does the usual movie thing where the family gets back together in the end, but the core of the movie is about a Father trying to reunite with his daughter despite the odds.

2019-01-08 20:43:38 UTC  

At least that’s how I felt xD

2019-01-08 20:52:59 UTC  

Especially since the title of the movie is Coco, which is the name of the Grandma/daughter

2019-01-08 20:54:43 UTC  

Also was based on Mexican culture so the usuals where all “asdfghmydiversity”

2019-01-08 20:56:22 UTC  

@Abbysol That sounds like a good message. 😃

2019-01-08 21:03:47 UTC  

I have now spoiled most the movie anyway so I will stop gushing 😄

2019-01-08 21:05:18 UTC  

But MC is shown to have grown up in an extremely strict matriarchal family that completely smothered him which is what leads to the major conflict

2019-01-08 21:05:29 UTC  

And the family is that way because of the irrational spite held by one women

2019-01-08 21:08:06 UTC  

Main thing I hear about Mexican culture in like, respect for the cartel. They have matriarchal tendencies?

2019-01-08 21:53:47 UTC  

Someone hired me today

2019-01-08 21:53:54 UTC  

I'm excited

2019-01-08 22:04:52 UTC  

Grats! That’s awesome! I hope your new job works out well!

2019-01-08 22:07:17 UTC  

Me too. It definitely pays better.

2019-01-08 22:11:00 UTC  

Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊🍾

2019-01-08 22:15:21 UTC  

That's good news, best of luck in it
