After Lightyear, it seems Disney is toning down the progressive nature of its animation.
The management within Disney’s walls seem to be increasingly cautious when it comes to conveying progressive messages, and in the wake of Lightyear, a film that famously flopped pretty hard, they are now said to be actively looking to tone down such themes. Something that allegedly influenced the production of Inside Out 2.
People who worked on the production, but who are no longer employed by Disney, have said (via IGN) how the company’s management is convinced that Lightyear flopped because of its portrayal of same-sex love, especially the kiss between the characters Alisha and Kiko.
