Elio was cut drastically to be less queer-coded according to The Hollywood Reporter.

What does queer mean in the modern homo community anyway? There's already, gay and lesbo. Is it really just a category for no personality straightoids or straight autistics to be part of the lgbt+?

It's still shocking how these cartoon creators are openly obsessed with wanting child characters being gay and having relationships.
 
One of the classic signs of a pedophile is that often they'll take jobs that give them access to children, or earn them trust. Traditionally those were roles like preachers and pastors, scout leaders, teachers, pediatricians, party clowns, etc. Maybe a lot of them are just going into animation since there's less of a disconnect between creators and viewers now?
Don't forget teachers. There is a big problem especially today with this.

And perhaps, there's a possibility.

It really is just another buzz word these fags love to throw around at anything they do/like because everything needs to be gay to them

And why do they have to insist it always be about children? Far as I can tell, Elio isn't even a middle schooler, and he was supposed to be fucking gay? Only pedoes want that.
Giving the benefit of the doubt to the creators, studio heads are known to be retarded and many of them believe children won't see a film that stars an adult, so they change concepts to be about kids. This seems to happen a lot in the animation industry, so I could see Elio being a product of studio changes.

Makes you wonder how two alien-centric films got greenlit roughly around the same time.
 
>The Cat's world looks like an unrendered PS2 game
Interesting comparison, considering this exists

>The Cat's world looks like an unrendered PS2 game
>the kids have been race-swapped to black/Hispanic (the same race as the directors, funny that)
>The Things are Minion-esque

Vysie no likey. *sigh*
Great job of making the 2003 movie that Mike Myers appeared in because of a lawsuit look soulful.

I don't think "When you take away the queerness, the movie has nothing and elio is a boring character" is the praise this person thinks it is.

If literally zero people on screentesting liked then the movie had bigger problems than the mc being queer.
I always like the vagueness of these statements. Are they saying that the company literally told them to remove anything that implied the character could be gay, or did they just say "The test audience think the main character is an annoying pussy, give him some likable traits." and they're choosing to interpret it as a explicit homophobia?

Yeah, but at least it isn't made by Illumination...so that is a plus...I guess.

Doesn't matter. Humor is still atrocious. That "don't open" gag went on for way longer than it should have.

Also the scene where he gets maced in the face was dumb. "oh haha old cartoon in current year times, kids act like adults" like we haven't seen THAT a bajillion times either.

>Established legacy cartoon IP gets a live-action/CGI film in the 2000s/early 2010s that’s critically panned but is considered a charming and funny cult-classic by people nostalgic for it.

>It gets a proper fully animated film in modern day with a seemingly faithful artstyle but it’s somehow WORSE then the live-action version in just being a bland, boring, unfunny generic kids movie.

Are there any good examples of this aside from this, Smurfs, and Garfield?
