Apparently not, she's just a skater girl/tomboy according to what my friend said when he read the novelization.

Thank GOD! I'm relieved. So glad I was wrong (but also right because there's still a trans kid in the movie).
... Also, is that an estrogen patch on the kid in that pic on the previous page? I hope not!

I thought it was a diabetic thing. The implanted blood sugar readers that tell you what it is in live time, something like that.

I didn think those were common in the early 2000's, though as nobody in my family is diabetic (of either kind) I am probably wrong. I just remember the commecials for the implanted readers really becoming common in the 2010's.

Well the makers of the movie set it in 2002/2003 when boy bands were on the decline (2000 was the peak, the year they should've set it in) so it wouldn't surprise me if there was another anachronism.
It actually really ticks me off. Like, how hard is it to set it in 2000? It already feels like it in the trailer but the articles on it say otherwise. In 2002 Justin Timberlake released his first solo album, Justified, and NSYNC were essentially done. Same with some other boybands whose careers dried up after 9/11 and the cultural shift. 2000 would've been the optimal time to set it in since they already used two songs from 1999/2000 in their trailer ("Larger Than Life" and "It's Gonna Be Me" respectively.).
And also, I find it funny that they have a boyband in the movie that has like three black guys in it. Back in the day, you were either an all-black boyband like B2K or all white/mixed-but-white-looking like Backstreet Boys (Howie Dorough's mom is Puerto Rican). If there was any black representation in the group it would be like, one person, like in O-Town. Of course, them making a mostly black boyband group is just for diversity purposes.

Quick research tells me the FDA first approved those type of monitors in 1999, so while they wouldn't have been common, they did exist. Or maybe they just really didn't care about year accuracy despite having lived through the years it's set in.

They keep using that phrase, "representation matters" like "diversity is our strength." It doesn't make sense, as if representation did matter, then shouldn't the easy money play be to use identities in the majority rather than overrepresenting minorities? Like if we can only identify with characters that look like us, then aren't you alienating the majority of your customer base? I guess you aren't supposed to think and just accept/repeat the WEF slogan.

You know, Pixar is a non-union studio and there's big animation union negotiations happening right now... Good publicity, mebbe?

movie set in early 2000s, a time where nobody cared about trans shit, yet includes current year wholesome 100 trannyshit and looks like fucking grubhub even more so than luca did. It's insane to me how in this current year even fucking pixar has succumbed to 2 corpo-styles. Grubhub and FROZEN reign supreme for 3d artstyle while the fucking allegria shit infests all 2d shit. I hate it all and it makes me actually appreciate shittier quality animation and art in comparison because you can still see fucking SOUL in it.

It's funny. They're really pushing the marketing for this schlock and yet I genuinely haven't seen any excitement for it at all. My young male cousin says it looks boring and ugly and "it's for girls". He's more excited for the equally-ugly Buzz Lightyear movie. I don't see what anyone outside of Tumblr or Steven Universe's cringe audience would find appealing.

Also I can't get over the fact that the fucking muzzle on this red panda doesn't extend to the lower section of its jaw. Gotta make room for bean mouth. It's driving me crazy.

So Turing Red is the one with the trans kid? Why? Out of all their upcoming movies they chose the one that takes place in the early 2000s? No there was no thing as trans kids back then. Even trans teens were rare. I know Canada is more progressive in their culture but I don't see them supporting this in 2002/2003. If they wanted to have a character wo dated the movie wouldn't it have made more sense to have a Scene kid? Or is 2002/3003 too early for that?

Yeah, and there were little to no free black people in 18th century France, either.
Generally, even in the cases of free Negroes, they were servants. This was the most significant feature of the Negroes as a group in eighteenth-century France. Most of them were servants of the planters, or of the army and navy officials who had seen service in the colonies.

Historical revisionism. There were always trans people, at all times. There were always black people, at all times. We were always at war with Eurasia.

It's a bit of a PL but my young daughter has recently discovered Lilo and Stitch and is absolutely obsessed with it.

The movie holds up extremely well considering it's age and I've watched the cartoon series with her and it's surprisingly fun and engaging too.

The "diversity" shit was done right too, especially after looking into the musical tracks.

I'm glad modern Disney seems to have forgotten about it. I can't imagine how terrible a CGI diversity movie with the current style would look. Stitch would legit be Furry bait and Lilo would be darker than any actual Hawaiian. We'd probably also get a lecture how evil and racist Elvis was and how it was evil white people who unalived Lilo's parents.

Hate to break it to you Bub but they are making a live action remake of Lilo & Stitch. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...YQFnoECAUQBQ&usg=AOvVaw1IXPOAl-i2bRiRUoz4RVmw
