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.

@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

Hi Haroldas, welcome to the discord

2019-01-09 12:00:57 UTC  

Hello, nice to meet you all

2019-01-09 12:03:39 UTC  

How are you today?

2019-01-09 12:07:17 UTC  

I'm good thanks, just about to start doing some work if I'm successful at that haha. What about you? 🙂

2019-01-09 12:08:36 UTC  

I'm going to bed soon, pretty tired. Was playing minecraft with a friend not long ago, hopefully we can platinum it and get the expansion trophies as well

2019-01-09 12:09:39 UTC  

What do you mean if yours successful at it >.< You haven't done that work before?

2019-01-09 12:12:13 UTC  

aw you must be in some US timezone, I used to play some casual minecraft years ago with my classmates, was pretty good. Is that game still getting regular updates?

I like to procrastinate, sometimes it takes me 5 minutes to get into the groove, sometimes an hour, which is pretty annoying but owell, hopefully gonna get better at it in the long term

2019-01-09 12:14:07 UTC  

Nope, I'm British, I'm just awake nights. Yep, they're still adding things to it. Last update was pandas and scaffolding with some related trophies, also more underwater stuff like coral (I think, maybe the map was just old and it spawned in a new biome)

2019-01-09 12:14:39 UTC  

I procrastinate with stuff plenty too, but I usually get everything done in the day I need it done by
