Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is the most anti trans movie I've ever seen! How did James Gunn, canceled by the woke mob at Disney, then rehired get away with this?
SPOILERS BELOW
Bad guy literally transmutates animals. Turning then against their biology.
Rocket Racoon struggles to embrace his true biology. Only later coming to terms with who he was actually created as.
Villian claims there is no God until he stepped in.
Wanted to create a world without bigots. World he created resembles meth laden streets of San Francisco.
The villian has tons of children in cages who are rescued.
Holy cow this is some subtle writing and the fact that Disney didn't see the message is crazy to me.
That's what you get out of this?
Yes. That your analogy is fundamentally flawed because it ignores a crucial part of the argument. Giving up vapid entertainment is the easiest battle to fight and yet you come up with your justification for why it's actually worth giving your money to Disney (again giving your money to a company you know is involved with at least some of the things you claim to be vehemently against) using a flawed analogy. How are we supposed to win when people can't even give up their bread and circuses. I saw the first guardians of the galaxy movie when a friend brought it over, it was nothing special, an action popcorn flick. You speak of it like it's a story for the ages like Lord of the Rings (not that even that would change the fact that it's funding Disney in exchange for fantasy escapism)
OK. Give it a rest, will you?
If this is the hill you want to die on, go ahead.
Why don't you go look up all the companies and industries Disney owns and tell me that you've boycotted all of them.
Did you watch any of the Star Wars movies? The Indiana Jones movies? Pirates of the Caribbean? Any Pixar movies? The History Channel? Any movie by Touchstone pictures? A&E? ABC family? Lifetime? FX? Marvel Studios? Lucas Films? The History Channel? What about ESPN or ESPN2? Did you ever go to Disneyland or Disneyworld?
I could go on. Unless you are actively boycotting all of these and many, many more, you are just virtue signaling here. Stop it.
Funny that you went ahead and watched the movie when your friend brought it over. Why did you do that? Why didn't you refuse? Of course, seeing it on the small screen you weren't impressed. That is the whole reason a person goes to the IMAX or 3D film at the theater to get the whole experience of these kind of blockbuster movies.
Sounds to me that you are battling windmills here. You and I will have to agree to disagree.
Actually yes, I don't partake in media from nor spend money in support of any of those companies. I barely watch any media and none of it is from the Disney umbrella. Amusement parks are artificial fun. Yes my family took me to the park once as a child, I never had the desire to go back and never will. My wife was a huge, huge Disney fan but has dropped her Disney+ and stopped going to the parks simply from learning from what I've shown her, I never pushed her in any way aside from telling her I wouldn't watch anything on Disney+ with her or ever go to the parks and of course showing her the ways in which the company is evil. I also used to be a big sports fan but I haven't watched a game in years (hey look, ESPN shout out). I have given up things that are worth giving up and it has enriched my life. You think you're in a war and you can't even give up trinkets. You don't have to answer this question to me although feel free to if you want: if you're not willing to give up mindless entertainment, what would you be willing to sacrifice? Remember this movie apparently taught you the importance of self sacrifice for greater ideals.
One, if you remember when the first guardians came out, we didn't know Gunn was a pedo nor did I know the absolute depths of Disney's depravity (although I knew they were evil) as this was pre-pizzagarte. It was something I did not pay for and therefore did not support, although you're right that there's no reason to even let that garbage into my mind, which I no longer do.
So by saying it's natural I wasn't impressed on the small screen you're basically admitting it's more flash than substance which seems to weaken your position further but weird flex.
