Yeah, that would be obvious, but I didn't know that.Flanger-Hanger wrote:Well his partner has shown up more than once before, accepting his Oscar for Beauty and the Beast and showing up on DVD bonus features. The fact that he is labeled "partner" without having any business kind of relationship means gay to me.
Same here. I'm pretty sure it was made for the film (or at least at the same time the others were made), and I like that it was included, just to add a sense of "completion" in the set, but I would've really liked at least some sort of description, if not an explanation.goofystitch wrote:"Your Ohana" was not on the soundtrack. I found its inclusion odd because while it was written by the guy who wrote two of the songs in the film and was also sung by the Kamehameha Children's Chorus, no explanation is given as to why it is there or what it is for.
Really? I knew almost instantly (but I'm not gay). I don't have it right all the time. I have a colleague I could swear was gay. Turns out he was married and had two children.sotiris2006 wrote:Andreas Deja is gay?Goliath wrote:I would never have guessed Andreas Deja was, until somebody who worked with him told me.I'd never would have guessed.
That's funny!! xxhplinkxx and I were discussing him the other day and I said I couldn't tell if he was gay or just european. I guess now I know.sotiris2006 wrote:Andreas Deja is gay?Goliath wrote:I would never have guessed Andreas Deja was, until somebody who worked with him told me.
It's not a 'lifestyle', it's a sexual orientation. By referring it as a 'lifestyle' not only you make it sound like it's a choice (which clearly is not) but you imply that homosexual people lead a different kind of life than heterosexuals (which is not the case of course) perpetuating the stereotypical perception of gays. The only difference in the lives of gay people is that they have to live in fear, prejudice and discrimination (not to mention inequality concerning civil and legal rights).buffalobill wrote:people are so concerned about the gaiety or non of everyone else's lifestyle.
I agree I thought there would be more of a discussion about Lilo & Stitch, the picture quality of the DVD, the extra bonus materials, how it stands up against other releases ect. Who honestly cares if someone is gay or not?buffalobill wrote:For the life of me on a Disney message board I cannot figure out why so many people are so concerned about the gaiety or non of everyone else's lifestyle.

The topic of being gay is fine and all, but perhaps it should be moved to a respective thread, and this thread can go back to the topic at hand, "Lilo and Stitch". I'm hoping to watch my DVD tomorrow, since I have not yet had the time.CampbellzSoup wrote:I agree I thought there would be more of a discussion about Lilo & Stitch, the picture quality of the DVD, the extra bonus materials, how it stands up against other releases ect.

Nothing was meant by the word lifestyle. Just a poor choice of words. I realize it is orientation & is not choice but I still couldn't give a flying fig about reading about it in every damned thread.sotiris2006 wrote:It's not a 'lifestyle', it's a sexual orientation.

Yeah, i realized that you didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to say this since this word is constantly misused when referring to the gay community. I hope you didn't take it personally.buffalobill wrote:Nothing was meant by the word lifestyle. Just a poor choice of words.

I object to calling 'being gay' a "lifestyle". This implies choice, and there is no choice in being gay. It is something you *are*.buffalobill wrote:For the life of me on a Disney message board I cannot figure out why so many people are so concerned about the gaiety or non of everyone else's lifestyle.

You've heard the rumor: Everyone in Disney's feature animation department is really gay, right? “It's kind of hard for me to tell in California,” says Dean DeBlois, the openly gay half of the two-director team for Disney's latest animated feature, Lilo & Stitch. “I'm from a pretty small town in Canada, so when I moved here I just thought a lot of the people in the entertainment industry were kind of expressive and flamboyant.”
Like Lilo's chosen family, the Disney family is quite eclectic, allowing such diverse duos as Sanders and DeBlois to coparent their own animation feature some 2,500 miles from Hollywood, at Disney's Orlando, Fla., animation studio. And was there any straight guy-gay guy rivalry in their collaboration? DeBlois laughs. “Not really. I don't think I appear outwardly gay, because when we moved to Florida [from Los Angeles], they knew that one of us was gay, but they assumed it was Chris. He was all worked-out and fashionably dressed, and I hobbled in there looking like a redneck.”
