      One idiotic, bigoted review = movie is “seen as unrelatable.”https://www.npr.org/2022/03/12/1086040083/turning-red-controversy …pic.twitter.com/awvkWslHsv

      It’s been seven years since “Inside Out,” a hit Pixar movie about what’s going on inside a young girl’s mind; but Cinemablend published an offensive review and therefore movies like this are “uncomfortable for people who are used to a white male-centric perspective.”

      Click the link, the entire backlash narrative is based on one review — which was itself backlashed out of existence bc everybody agreed it was garbage.

      The more interesting story here is why Disney has dumped two well-regarded Pixar movies in a row - "Luca" and "Turning Red" - on Disney+, instead of giving them big domestic releases. That's done more harm to this movie than that chucklehead's review.

          My advice there is watch more foreign & independent animation which touches on complex themes & material much more often than the House of Mouse would dare.

          Came out during peak Covid I think though. I don’t think many theaters were open

          Soul was released in the theaters in Korea. Despite everyone being scared of Covid, it made $16 million.
