ynohtna posted:Does The Rock have any iconic lines or catchphrases? Just from his wrestling days. After he worked so hard to be seen as more than just a wrestler I could see him being a reticent to take another role that would simplify him down to another catchphrase.

He seems to often do a Rock bottom in movies and tweaks the eyebrow in a lot of them.

Pfft, let me know when someone writes an entire song based on The Rock's ramblings in a DVD commentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPr6LqhQBr0 But seriously, The Rock is pretty great, and a lot like Arnold in the good ways. He's not a fantastic actor, but chooses roles he can handle, and is super charismatic. You see him in a movie and you just want to root for him.

I'll believe it when I see it. Until then, just more queer-baiting from a company that seems to want credit for being LGBT friendly without actually doing anything to earn it.

Casimir Radon posted:Disney has extended benefits to same sex couples since the 90s. Evangelicals hate Disney. And there's a gay character or two on their tv show. I'm from Florida, I know. But there's a world of difference between that and making an openly lesbian Disney Princess movie, in my opinion. It would be a bold move, one I don't think the Mouse is likely to make in the near future. Gay-baiting is all I think this is likely to be. Much like Merida and Mulan, I suspect Disney won't do anything to contradict how easily Elsa can be read as queer, but I don't think they'll confirm it on the big screen, either.

They made LeFou gay in the B&B live action movie, something that, while a no-brainer, wasn’t something they needed to do, and unnecessarily pissed off the far-right. While having a Disney princess that seeks a princess charming is a long shot, I wouldn’t exactly say the Disney hasn’t done anything to be considered LGBT friendly.

LeFou tells Mrs. Potts that he’s given up on Gaston and she tells him he’s too good for him anyway. Perhaps what matters more than LeFou being gay is that no one else in the movie finds LeFou being gay odd (in a musical where one of the songs is about how the female protagonist is odd as all gently caress for being a bookworm).

FreudianSlippers posted:Though not explicitly socialist Black Panther is pretty radical for a mainstream blockbuster. It spends a lot of energy emphasising the plight of Black Americans even explicitly stating that they are kept in poverty by a exploitative system of police brutality that has murdered all or their leaders. And then he murders their latest potential leader. How radical. It acknowledges these things and does nothing with them. That's the criticism of the film.

Casimir Radon posted:Disney has extended benefits to same sex couples since the 90s. Evangelicals hate Disney. Evangelicals loving love Disney  This is a company that has an annual unofficial LGBTQ day in the theme parks that they refuse to acknowledge, while also holding literal annual contemporary Christian music festivals where they close the park early and restrict access to people going to the festival. I think they finally moved the concert itself from the Magic Kingdom to a different location still within Disney property, but the point remains.

Disney still loves to take their money, though, which is one of the big reasons why I'm extremely skeptical of Disney making an openly lesbian Disney Princess. Doing that would entail actual risk for the company, versus the tried and true risk-free trend of gay baiting.

Disney Parks is really duplicitous about it too because they still sell rainbow-flag themed merchandise in the park. Like they only value LGBTQ people by how much money they can milk out of them while still maintaining this plausible deniability to avoid pissing off fundies.

Like they only value LGBTQ people by how much money they can milk out of them while still maintaining this plausible deniability to avoid pissing off fundies. Disney's corporate culture is known, at least here in Florida, for being exceptionally ruthless and unscrupulous. They are extremely litigation happy to the point of suing preschools, they're as brutal to their employees as they can get away with, and at higher ranks it gets very cutthroat and coldly calculating. If Disney makes a lesbian princess movie, it will be because the Disney executives calculated that the profits for the corporation would outweigh the inevitable PR shitstorm and financial upset. I don't work there, but I can't see the calculus working out that way. Not yet, at least.

They look like someone put them together in half an hour on Photoshop. Obviously Spielberg isn't getting Drew Struzan out of retirement or anything but I was honestly expecting there'd be at least one poster which looked like somebody painted it or something.
