It's such a shame, Tim Curry is awesome.

So many iconic voices. Nigel Thornberry, The Pipe Organ, Auntie Whispers, Arl Howe, Chadwick, the Goblin King, Professor Calamitus, The Cat King, Gabriel Knight, Doctor Sevarius, King Acorn, Evil Manta, and MAL.
I know he's paralyzed but I wonder if he has at least regained most of his senses and abilities. Like I assume he can at least do voices and carry on a conversation no?

Also I know he's never married and has no children, same as Miranda Richardson, but he pings my gaydar. He definitely deserves to be in the reigning class of LGBT celebs if anything (provided he is one)

Yeah, speaking of that I was curious and looked it up and as it turns out he's never officially stated whether he's gay or not?

That's pretty weird as I thought for sure he was openly gay, but while I think he probably is I'm just surprised he's never outright stated as such.

All the better if he is if you ask me. It shows he's got enough class and confidence in his craft that he doesn't feel the need to showboat where he sticks his dick unlike the host of attention-seeking Hollywood worms.

Like I said, I was at a con with him a few years back and he could only do photo-ops. If I'd attended that panel he did with Charlie Adler, I could tell you what his condition was like, but I can't.

To clarify, I was referring to the live-action remake version of LeFou. The character never really struck me as being remotely gay in the original animated version. And I have zero knowledge on what his Broadway incarnation is like.

In the animated version he is actually shown fawning over the Babettes. The live action one has LeFou be more obsessed with Gaston and they turn him into good guy for some fucking reason during the final fight, then he's going around fighting his fellow villagers with Mrs. Potts as a weapon and then she tells him that he was too good for Gaston (so he had time to tell Mrs. Potts his life's story?), then the final party scene has him falling in love and dancing with drunk villager #3 who is named after one of the random background characters from the original film. If Disney wants forced representation so bad they could just make the organ from that old midquel have an implied hard-on for the Beast. I mean he was already fucking obsessed with having the Beast love no one but him.

And yeah, as great as it would be to see Tim Curry on the big screen again even as a voice, it sadly won't happen and there aren't many who can fill the shoes of his wonderfully malicious voice. Ian McDiarmad or Corey Burton (evil voice pros) might've made good choices, but they already cast IanMcDiarmad as the bloody clock and I doubt Disney will want Corey Burton to play a lead role despite his near-perfect replication of Christopher Lee's grand voice. Of course all of this is meaningless since they're making a Le Fou prequel.

I thought he had flings with female partners? I never really looked into his life 'cause I never cared to. If he's actually gay (before or after Rocky Horror lol), he's a rare one because he's chosen to keep his personal life a personal secret, which is very commendable. Should it ever come out he's gay, I'm bracing myself for the LGBT community to shriek about him being super oppressed or some shit, like they did to that one astronaut (think it was an astronaut) who turned out to be a lesbian but it wasn't revealed until she died.

Tim will always be the Lord of Darkness and Wadsworth to me. :heart-full:

he always struck me as one of those "as long as it's sentient" types like David Bowie

It's said that that was merely a rumor that Bowie crafted to garner more publicity for his "Ziggy Stardust" persona. 🤔

to be fair, he was always /fa/ as fuck and what boomers would call "metrosexual" back then.

personally I don't really care where tim curry wants to stick or get it since it doesn't really matter (if I had to guess probably both because why the fuck not).
 
The latest shitney reboot of the Spiderman cartoon is just ass. They want things that take years to earn way too fast.

By the end of the first season they already had venom, spidergwen, miles morales, superior spiderman, all that shit. It's just hollow.
And speaking of spidey, why not make his mask just a tiny bit harder to take off?
A little bit of velcro would buy him 10 seconds or more. Sheesh.

Well, shit. In it’s entire history Disneyland has only ever closed but a handful of times: Walt Disney’s death, JFK’s assassination, and 9/11.

I had just heard that the governor of California made an exception for Disneyland to remain open, which was a dumb fucking idea. Well, they did the right thing today.

Apparently earlier this week Disneyland was crowded as fuck despite the rain and the worry about Coronavirus, even though Orange County is in a state of emergency over it. Disney World I know less about but it's a given that the risk will be even worse since it's bigger and sees more international travel to the resort. I'm not surprised they're closing the parks because it seems like a lot of opportunists are taking this as a time to travel cheaply and with less people around, even if the main concern isn't necessarily the travelers getting sick but spreading the virus further. Having the parks open is an unnecessary risk IMO since not only are people irresponsible and going to try to go to Disney despite being sick/the risk of getting sick, but it seems someone can be contagious even before they know they have it.

EDIT: They're not looking to close Disney World and my post might imply otherwise but they really should for the stated reasons.

Disney World (the one in Florida) still says they're staying open, pretty sure the other parks in the area, too
iirc Disneyland has more local business vs tourists compared to World
