upriser7 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) Regarding the Middle East ban, people who watched the movie said that there isn't even anything related to LGBTQ stuff in the movie. So I wonder if they are banning it because of the feminist message/theme...I was looking on twitter regarding this topic and I saw some Middle Eastern posters speculating that this could have been the reason for the ban Edited August 1, 2023 by upriser7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a good movie and people should go and see it, and not be ruined by such scandal while the marketing is ramping up as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti-Feminist is not on their agenda.. Barbie ban is entirely centered around Anti-LGBTQ thats about it. MovSTo in Saudi Arabia passed many feminist movies thru the censorship before but it is easy to predict there pattern they solely stop all positive LGBTQ elements or movies promoting LGBTQ Edited August 1, 2023 by Geo1500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vale9001 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) i don't think the problem is something subtle but just the fact the movie shows from scene 1 a world where woman have every power, they are even in an all female constutional court. I mean no offence but in some cases we're talking about cultures where women can't drive 🙂 Edited August 1, 2023 by vale9001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
