For #pridemonth we're celebrating #LGBTQ :flagProgress: #animation and this week, it's #film.
#Nimona has had a bit of a troubled history but the future looks bright. Once in development at Blue Sky an originally scheduled for release this year, production was halted and then canned entirely when Disney purchased the studios parent, FOX. A particularly disheartening development because the film, based on ND Stevenson's comic, features prominant LGTQ themes and characters.

‘Lilo & Stitch’ Director Got ‘Frustrated’ by ‘Frozen’ Praise: We Did Sisterhood Over Romance First
https://variety.com/2022/film/news/lilo-stitch-director-frustrated-frozen-1235300612/
First of all, Happy 20th anniversary to #LiloAndStitch! One of my fav #Disney movies, one of their best, and fo sho most creative. Also, #watercolor backgrounds!!
But also, they absolutely did sisters first. But, Frozen had the white, princess sisters that sing earworms, sooooo..... Guess which one our society glomed onto. :blobawkward: :blobnotlike:
Imagine going from a design consultant at a major American university to a 'Digital artist and storyteller' for "NFT, Crypto, Web3, DAO" with an Etherium address to boot. :blobfearful:
Bonus points if you also legally change your name :yikes:
It irks me no end that #Pixar have had multiple flops at this point but everyone seems to pretend that they haven't and are still untouchable, impeccable, and better than every other studio. Disney marketing at its finest.

Films have a LOT less LGBTQ characters for a number of reasons, so they tend to be rare.
ParaNorman was the first to feature an LGBTQ character AND make that clear in the film when Mitch refers to his boyfriend. It doesn't seem like much now, but considering the film came out in 2012, it was an important first that spawned more.
sick social media presence, excellent branding, creative website url and to top it all off, no sign of an about page anywhere on the site so you can't tell what the fuck we are! SUBSCRIBE
