look at these lost souls talking about reviews as if they mattered. Hey; honey. You could read the phone book for two hours and I would go see it at least twice. 🥵🥵

After the cinemacon raves, I'm a tad surprised at the responses being as lukewarm as they are.

 

Well, that was only the first half hour, and yes, they are more inclined to prop up stuff screened to them in a promotional environment

Have not watched it personally but there was a sneaks show to theater owners and media yesterday here in Singapore.

Had spoken to a friend who is one of the higher ups of a local theater, he told me the movie was draggy, and kids may not like it.

 

I have not watched it but will see for myself.. hope it is good.

So are all Disney animated features (or maybe just Pixar ones) going to get Disney+ documentaries now?

[Cap]

i can’t even FUNCTION

Lightyear scored 88/100 4 Complete Stars! So does that mean it will likely get 90%+ on RT? 

[Morieris]

I know someone who went to an early screening.

 

Spoiler

Their thoughts line up with the general consensus of 'it's fine'.

 

[cannastop]

looks like Lightyear got rated 12 in Hungary so wtf. I guess the Hungarian film board is against small children seeing Pixar movies because Turning Red got the same rating

 

edit:

just realized Turning Red and Lightyear both have scenes of same-sex affection (In Turning Red, it's coded, but there).

I think in Lightyear it's more clear.

So that could be an explanation.

IDK? That's always a crapshoot. It would seem better than the reactions I've seen so far, though.

You never know how many critics have added in their ratings on Critics Choice. It's so early that it might only be one or two.

It is straight out banned here in Malaysia, apparently  disney refuse to allow board to cut away the scene. 

[Claudio]

Seems like Lightyear got banned in Indonesia. 😭

[AniNate]

Give Disney some credit for sticking to their edit. Hopefully now they realize this is a price you have to pay if you really want to be held up as a champion of progressive values.

[WittyUsername]

Seems like this movie’s getting banned in half the world. 

[filmlover]

This isn't shocking after Eternals, West Side Story, and Doctor Strange 2 were all banned in multiple countries for the same reason.

 

Oh well, let them stand there in their wrongness.

[JohnnyGossamer]

Was Eternals banned in these same markets? 

[ban1o]

The backlash for having separate edits for different markets is silly and short sighted to me. 

 

All this is going to do is cause Disney to avoid putting gay characters in their movies at all. Disney is not a champion for progressive causes. They want to make money.

Before it got kicked to September this movie got what is essentially a 10A rating here in Turkey. It's basically PG-13 if the threshold was 10 years instead of 13. It also got a "potentially inappropiate content" label, so the lesbian kiss is most likely in. Eternals was uncensored here and it didn't cause much of a fuzz, so I'm feeling confident.
