Have you seen the new Pixar movie Turning Red? To me it seems like a totally queer allegory, maybe even specifically about bisexuality. The girls in the film have a strong bisexual vibe/style going on, and the whole film is about the girl learning to accept both sides of herself instead of hiding one side of herself like the rest of her family always has. The end credits are also completely in the colors of the bi pride flag. The main girl also has some colorful bracelets that are reminiscent of the gay pride colors. I also heard Luca is a queer allegory (I missed that) and we all know that Elsa is gay. Also Spies in Disguise, a recent animated film with Will Smith, went beyond the usual bromance and became really gay in a pretty endearing way. Any others that you all know of? Maybe even some older films I might not be aware of?
I haven't seen either Turning Red or Luca, but will have to do so. I did read that the creator of Luca did not make it as an intentional queer allegory, but is totally okay with people take away that interpretation.
I saw turning red and I did get a couple of queer vibes from it. But I was more focused on their huge teeth, and that the ritual she was being forced into was easily reversible, but it was the main plot point. The pandas were cute though. I didn’t see Luca.
I also got some queer vibes from Turning Red, but my main take away was how it featured puberty and menstruation, how that feels as a teenager, etc. I watched it with my daughter and we both enjoyed.
I just watched a great movie on Disney+. Its based off a book Better Nate than Ever. Although never said explicitly the main character, a 13-year-old boy is more than implicitly gay.
There's a lesbian cop in Onward. Ursula from the Little Mermaid is rumored to be based off of a drag queen. There's also a gay guy in Cruella I think.
