I find the idea that Lightyear is some sort of transgressive diverse film completely insane.
It is a movie about a white masculine male learning to take responsibility for himself by trusting others and sharing the burden. He is incredibly heroic and celebrated throughout. If people's ideas of "obsession with diversity" mean that having black people and a lesbian couple exist in the world of the movie as main characters is too far, I fear for our future.
Iger is not some sort of political agent out here to crush the hegemonic hierarchies of white dominance. He wants to make money. There is a very large amount of people that are not the historically dominantly represented group that now make and consume art (or products, in the case of the stuff people complain about the most). This is a target audience, for those of you so concerned with the cash involved. Please, consider what inside of you is so offended by poorly written girlboss shows that we need to make large corporate shifts purely based on cash some sort of victory over Splash Mountain being rethemed.
