Buzz Lightyear film featuring same-sex couple will not play in 14 countries

Filed Under Movie Rental     Tags:      

Walt Disney Co. has been unable to obtain permission to show its new Pixar movie Lightyear in 14 Middle Eastern and Asian countries, a source said on Monday, and the animated film appeared unlikely to open in China, the world’s largest movie market.

A Lightyear producer told Reuters that authorities in China had asked for cuts to the movie, which Disney declined to make, and she assumed the movie would not open there either. The animated film depicts a same-sex couple who share a brief kiss, which prompted the United Arab Emirates to ban the film.

The United Arab Emirates said the couple’s relationship violated the country’s media content standards. Homosexuality is considered criminal in many Middle Eastern countries.

Representatives of other countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia and Lebanon, did not immediately respond to requests for comment on why they would not allow the film to be exhibited.

Disney refuses to cut same-sex kiss

Lightyear is a prequel to Pixar’s acclaimed Toy Story franchise. Chris Evans voices the lead character, Buzz Lightyear, a legendary space ranger.

In the film, Buzz’s close friend is a female space ranger who marries another woman. A scene showing milestones in the couple’s relationship includes a brief kiss.

Disney has not received an answer from Chinese authorities on whether they would allow the film in cinemas, Lightyear producer Galyn Susman said. But she said filmmakers would not make changes to the movie.

China has rejected other on-screen depictions of homosexuality in the past.

“We’re not going to cut out anything, especially something as important as the loving and inspirational relationship that shows Buzz what he’s missing by the choices that he’s making, so that’s not getting cut,” Susman told Reuters at the movie’s red-carpet premiere in London.

Evans frustrated by LGBTQ-related objections

China is not a “make or break” market for Pixar, one theatre industry source said. It contributed a mere three per cent to the global box office for Toy Story 4, which grossed more than $1 billion US in worldwide ticket sales in 2019, according to Comscore.

Any objections to Lightyear over LGBTQ issues were “frustrating,” Evans said.

“It’s great that we are a part of something that’s making steps forward in the social inclusion capacity, but it’s frustrating that there are still places that aren’t where they should be,” Evans said.

Lightyear is set to debut in theatres in the United States and Canada on Friday.

In May, Disney refused requests to cut same-sex references in Marvel movie Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness. Saudi Arabia and a handful of other Middle Eastern countries did not show the film.

Senior Year (2022)

Powered by Reelgood

TGIF, party people! It looks like the warm weather is finally here to stay, so it is time to break out the lawn chairs and fire up the BBQ for some outdoor, springtime fun! But before you pack that picnic basket (and the allergy medication, because hello pollen!) might this author suggest packing a sheet to set up your own outside theater? The hassle is worth it, because whether you use Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or all of the above, there are a ton of high-quality movies and shows hitting your favorite streaming platforms this weekend that you will not want to miss. Starting with the freshest options is always the way to go, so let us here at Decider help you figure out what to watch this weekend and where to stream it.

New Movies and Shows to Stream This Weekend: Senior Year, Conversations with Friends and The Kids in the Hall

You’ll want the video queue ready to go before heading out with your friends, so let’s dive in with the biggest titles to watch. On Netflix, watch funny lady Rebel Wilson go back to school as a 37-year-old in the original comedy film, Senior Year. If you are in the mood for some drama, check out Conversations with Friends on Hulu. It is a new romantic drama from the same author that brought us Normal People just two years ago; and if you’re a fan of the novel from which it was taken, you’ll want to see Frances and the other characters brought to life! And for those who have been looking for a modern Monty Python troupe, look no further than the Canadian sketch comedy group The Kids in the Hall, who just got their own series on Prime Video! Want to know more about these highlights and the rest of the stellar weekend lineup? Check out the rest of the hit titles new on streaming this weekend below:

New on Netflix May 13: Senior Year

Rebel Wilson is going back to school in this Netflix-original comedy that is new on Netflix this weekend — but the reason why is not like the tired, 21 Jump Street-esque storylines we have seen played out time and time again. No, in Senior Year, a 37-year-old woman (Wilson) wakes up from a coma that lasted 20 years and returns to high school to finish out her final year — and hopefully recapture her “popular girl” status and fulfill her dream of becoming prom queen. As you can guess, hilarity and hijinks ensue; and starring Zoë Chao, Sam Richardson, Mary Holland, Chris Parnell, Alicia Silverstone, Justin Hartley, and Angourie Rice, Senior Year is primed to be one of the top movies new on Netflix this month.

Stream Senior Year on Netflix

New on Prime Video May 13: The Kids in the Hall

New on Prime Video this weekend is The Kids in the Hall,  a wild and hilarious sketch comedy series from the titular Canadian group of Monty Python-like comedy masters. Members Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney and Scott Thompson have made a name for themselves by creating acerbic and satirical sketches that skewer anything and everything that strikes the group’s fancy, catapulting them to cult status. And now they are taking their outlandish style and drag looks to the streaming world. So check out The Kids in the Hall if you are looking for a good time!

Stream The Kids in the Hall on Prime Video

New on Hulu May 15: Conversations with Friends

If you loved the 2020 romantic drama series Normal People, you are going to love Hulu’s latest collaboration with author Sally Rooney, Conversations with Friends. Based on Rooney’s 2017 novel of the same name, the limited series tells the story of Frances (Alison Oliver), a 21-year-old Irish college student and aspiring poet whose own attempts at navigating complicated relationships launch her into her own difficult journey of self-discovery. Along with her ex-girlfriend-turned-best-friend Bobbi (Sasha Lane), Frances forms an unconventional relationship with the perfect married couple Melissa (Jemima Kirke) and Nick (Joe Alwyn) Conway — a relationship that quickly turns into something more complex. How will Frances make her way out of this tangled web? Watch all the juicy drama unfold in Conversations with Friends,  new on Hulu this weekend.

‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ Doc Exploring the ‘Beautiful Lie’ of Diamonds

‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ Doc Exploring the ‘Beautiful Lie’ of Diamonds

by
March 14, 2022
Source: YouTube

“Society is changing! The role of the diamond is under threat.” Showtime has revealed an official trailer for their compelling diamond documentary Nothing Lasts Forever, from award-winning filmmaker Jason Kohn. This premiered at the 2022 Berlin Film Festival last month, and is playing at SXSW and CPH:DOX this month before hitting Showtime. The DeBeers diamond cartel cornered the market on eternal love with their marketing phrase “A diamond is forever“, but now a wave of undetectable synthetic diamonds has flooded global gem markets, threatening to expose the artifice that props up a multi-billion dollar industry. “This is a perfect crime.” Berlinale adds to the intrigue: “This is a labyrinth where illusions and reality merge, where authenticity and imagination overlap, and questions arise about the value we place on the goods around us. In this sense, diamonds turn out to be exemplary: their exclusivity being the illusory effect of decades of marketing, and their meaning being based on values that synthetic gems, a product of fraud and market evolution, are now putting to the test.” Oh I definitely need to see this! Looks right up my alley.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Jason Kohn’s doc Nothing Lasts Forever, direct from YouTube:

Can you tell the real thing from a fake? What if the difference no longer matters? The DeBeers diamond cartel cornered the market on eternal love with the “A diamond is forever” catchphrase, but now a wave of undetectable synthetic diamonds has flooded global gem markets, threatening to expose the artifice that props up a multi-billion dollar industry. Featuring interviews with diamond merchants, DeBeers execs, auctioneers, gemologists, designers, investigators and scientists, this film explores one of the most beautiful lies ever told. Nothing Lasts Forever is directed by award-winning producer / filmmaker Jason Kohn, director of the doc films Manda Bala (Send a Bullet) and Love Means Zero previously. This initially premiered at the 2022 Berlin Film Festival earlier this year. Showtime will debut Nothing Lasts Forever streaming on Showtime starting sometime soon spring 2022. Stay tuned for updates. Anyone interested?

Broadway Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Casts New Harry and Ginny Potter

By  in June 14th 2022   No Comment »
Filed Under Harry Potter     Tags:      

Broadway’s Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, currently running at the Lyric Theatre, is getting a new Harry and Ginny Potter. Steve Haggard has already taken over the title role after James Snyder’s dismissal earlier this year following allegations involving backstage conduct. Haggard has re-joined the production after making his Broadway debut in the production’s ensemble in 2019.

Angela Reed will succeed current Ginny Potter Erica Sweany beginning May 3. Reed was part of the work’s original Broadway cast and played Ginny in its San Francisco premiere. She’s also been seen on Broadway in A Doll’s House, Part 2; The Country Girl; and Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Inspired by J.K. Rowling’s seven-part book series, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child brings the boy wizard to the stage in a new story taking place two decades after the events of the books. Penned by Jack Thorne, the work is based on an original story by Rowling, Thorne, and John Tiffany, who directs the production. The play premiered in London’s West End in 2016, winning nine Olivier Awards including Best New Play; and made the jump to Broadway in 2018, winning six Tony Awards including Best Play. The work was originally designed as two full-length two-act plays, though the Broadway production was streamlined into one two-act play when it re-opened following the shutdown last year. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has also opened productions in Melbourne, Toronto, and Tokyo.

The production features movement by Steven Hoggett, scenic design by Christine Jones, costumes by Katrina Lindsay, music and arrangements by Imogen Heap, lighting by Neil Austin, sound by Gareth Fry, illusions and magic by Jamie Harrison, and music supervision and arrangements by Martin Lowe. Casting is by Jim Carnahan. The work is produced by Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender, and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions.

Box Office: ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore’ Conjuring Franchise-Low Opening Weekend

Filed Under Harry Potter     Tags:      

While the domestic box office is showing signs of life after an age of COVID lockdowns, it seems that not every film franchise is being buoyed by a return of theatergoers. “Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore,” Warner Bros.’ latest entry in its prequel series to the “Harry Potter” franchise, is off to a somewhat rocky start, projected to land a record low debut for a Wizarding World film.

The third “Fantastic Beasts” earned $20.1 million on Friday and Thursday night previews from 4,753 North American locations, which marks the lowest opening day figure for a “Potter”-adjacent film. Industry analysts project a three-day opening in the neighborhood of $40 million, with some opportunity for upside.

That’s not exactly the most disastrous result for a theatrical release in 2022, but it’s a disappointing opening for a film franchise that’s supposed to behave like a box office juggernaut. “Secrets of Dumbledore” carries a hefty $200 million production budget, ballooned by COVID-related delays and safety costs. Warner Bros. will have to look to international audiences to give the wizarding sequel a thriving run. “Secrets of Dumbledore” should reach an international total above $175 million through Sunday.

“Secrets of Dumbledore” continues a downward trend for the “Fantastic Beasts” series. The first 2016 entry drew a domestic opening of $74 million, while its 2018 sequel, “The Crimes of Grindelwald,” fell to a $62 million debut. While one could forgive “Secrets of Dumbledore” as a victim of a theatrical landscape that isn’t at its pre-pandemic strength, things aren’t quite that simple. Plenty of sequels released in the past few months have landed bigger debuts than their predecessors, such as “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and last week’s “Sonic the Hedgehog 2.” It seems that “Fantastic Beasts” doesn’t spark that level of enthusiasm in moviegoers.

Once a promising opportunity to spin further box office gold from the “Potter” name, “Fantastic Beasts” has turned into a headache for Warner Bros. “Potter” author and franchise scribe J.K. Rowling has faced widespread criticism from the LGBTQIA+ community for her statements on sex and gender identity. And since the 2018 sequel, Warner Bros. has recast the role of the villainous Grindelwald with Mads Mikkelsen, removing original actor Johnny Depp as the actor entered a controversy surrounding domestic abuse allegations. With box office numbers continuing to slip, the studio may have to rethink how it approaches the Wizarding World moving forward.

Directed by franchise regular David Yates, “Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore” sees Jude Law returning as beloved Hogwarts leader Albus Dumbledore and Eddie Redmayne reprising his role as magizoologist Newt Scamander. Ezra Miller, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Callum Turner and Jessica Williams also star.

In his review of the film, Variety‘s chief film critic Peter Debruge called “Secrets of Dumbledore” “vastly improved” with Mikkelsen involved, writing that “devotees will likely adore the revelations in store, including a deeper commitment to the tragic love story between beloved Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore and the wizard determined to settle a score with Muggle-kind.” Other critics haven’t been as kind; the film holds a 49% aggregate approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Ticket buyers seem to be more receptive, bestowing “Fantastic Beasts 3” a “B+” rating on CinemaScore.

Also opening this weekend, Columbia Pictures’ “Father Stu” is projected to earn a five-day total upwards of $7 million from 2,705 locations. The religious film, which debuted on Wednesday, carries a modest production budget of $4 million. Critics have been largely indifferent, with the Mark Wahlberg vehicle landing a 41% approval aggregate rating on Rotten Tomatoes. However, moviegoers have been extremely favorable, grading “Father Stu” a glowing “A” rating on CinemaScore.

Wahlberg produces and stars in “Father Stu,” playing a boxer who turns to the church to become a priest after suffering a muscle disease. The R-rated drama also stars Jacki Weaver and Mel Gibson in supporting roles.

paramount’s “Sonic the Hedgehog 2” slowed to second place after its booming debut of $71 million. The SEGA sequel is projected to earn $26.5 million in its sophomore outing, dropping 63% from its opening. The family-friendly film should expand its domestic gross to $116 million through Sunday, placing it on track to finish above its 2020 predecessor’s $145 million total (though that run was abruptly cut off by the start of COVID-19 lockdowns).

Speaking of Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe is finding his own box office success outside of the franchise that established him. paramount’s “The Lost City,” which Radcliffe plays the villain in, should take third at the box office with a projected $5.45 million fourth weekend. The Sandra Bullock-Channing Tatum two-hander will push its domestic cume past $77 million through Sunday.

Rounding out the domestic box office’s top five, the genre mashup “Everything Everywhere All at Once” looks to take fourth with a projected $4.73 million opening weekend. After expanding from a limited run last Friday, A24 added even more locations this weekend — 950, to be exact — and the film looks to drop a mere 22% as a result. Thanks to stellar reviews and strong word-of-mouth, the indie release should reach a domestic gross of $16 million on Sunday.

Finally, Columbia Pictures’ “Morbius” continues to lose its legs at the domestic box office. The latest entry in the studio’s self-branded Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters (which also includes Tom Hardy’s two “Venom” movies and the upcoming “Kraven the Hunter”) looks to fall to sixth on domestic charts with a 58% drop from its sophomore outing. The Jared Leto vehicle should suck up a total domestic gross of $64 million through Sunday — a figured buoyed by a $39 million opening.
