Char-Li Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I saw it and as a person that isn't the BIGGEST Toy Story fan.....I just thought it was kind of boring? Not bad, but boring. There wasn't a lot of action, it wasn't particularly funny and I thought the supporting characters were all pretty annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightyear is a spin off with completely different story and animation style to its core franchise, and in a different case scenario (with the expected close release to D+ and in a market low since the pandemic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloudy Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 15 hours ago, InventedGays said: I honestly doubt that was a major factor here. The movie was up against two MASSIVE successes with Jurassic Park & Top Gun dominating theaters, and this was the first (I think?) recent animated movie they've released only to theaters and not with a Disney+ dual release. Most consumers aren't seeing multiple movies a month and Lightyear isn't the choice with the other two mentioned are dominating. I'm sure this will see much better traction when it's added to streaming I saw lots and lots of far right people and politicians in my country talking and moaning about it, and cinemas putting warning signs for parents. Something I honestly never thought I would see since my country is pretty lgtb friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there is a gay kiss and I manage to miss it while watching the film in IMAX. That's how inconsequential the scene is lol. This whole thing is like a fake outrage.

HausofNick Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I saw Lightyear in an early screening and once again opening weekend with my boyfriend and genuinely did not enjoy it either time. It's an absolutely gorgeous film and proves that Pixar is still the king of animation, but holy **** did the story suck ass. The characters were bad (especially the side ones), there was zero exploration of the film's universe (they're in space???), the scenery sucked, the "twist" sucked, everything was just bad. The highlight of the entire film was Sox, which felt like it didn't even belong in the film. This film did not feel like Pixar. There wasn't heart and a sense of genuine passion behind the project. Turning Red and Luca came out the past year and both were extremely well made, emotionally driven, and were bolstered by a sweet intimate story. This film doesn't have any of that. I couldn't even tell you who Disney is trying to market to with this film. I'm not surprised the trailers for this film sucked considering there's barely anything in this film to show people that's worth a ****. This film's issue is that it shouldn't have been made. Case closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerlady Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The gay kiss got more media coverage than Buzz. Disney should not have let that happen...should have told their actors not to comment on it. Parents probably thought the movie is too sexualize for their children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarCAL22 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 People in here actually blaming this on the same sex kiss … trust me this film has much larger issues that lead to these disappointing box office numbers… it’s just not a great movie and wasn’t necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeXone Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Tom Hanks didn't voice it and no woody I don't think the lesbian kiss was that big a deal. Also it was straight to Disney plus. Why go to the theater when you can watch at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't a need for there to be a gay kiss in the movie as it added nothing to the story or character development, making it feel forced in. It only created unnecessary controversy and for others to attack the movie and Disney. um well to be fair, a kiss isn't supposed to add anything to the story. Gay or straight, so this narrative is boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainDreamer Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Maybe they focussed too much on making a progressive movie than actually having a good story? And i've realized animation is kinda dead these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim19911126 Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 The problem of this movie was definitely not the same sex kiss, the kiss and the same sex love was actually pretty sweet and one of the few "good moments" from the movie. The main issue was the storyline, the writing was really really poor, Lightyear was good and did his job, but they didn't use his friendship with the female commander well, instead, they brought 3 supporting characters, two of them were GOD DAMN ANNOYING AND USELESS, the connection between them were terribly poor. Sox did really save the movie, he/she is the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
