Disney Superhero Movie Won’t Play In Middle Eastern Countries Due To Same Sex Kiss
These Marvel/Disney comic book “movies” (they look more like video games) should definitely be banned for being boring pieces of worthless garbage without a single ounce of creativity (watching people with capes and spandex screaming and blowing things up for the 80 billionth time is not entertainment, no matter how hard Disney tries to brainwash you into thinking otherwise), but instead, the new one is being banned in Saudi Arabia and across the Middle East for a same sex kiss and the depiction of Gods:
The anticipated robust overseas box office of Disney/Marvel’s Eternals, which posted a first day of $7.6M, will definitely not have Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman in its future release plans.
In Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Oman, the censors were seeking further cuts beyond any scenes of intimacy and that Disney opted not to make the edits, hence distribution certificates weren’t issued.
Meanwhile in Kuwait and Qatar, the Chloe Zhao-directed super-gods movie was blocked. The issue, we hear, may not solely be the same-sex kiss, but rather that overall these markets have historically had a problem with the depiction of gods and prophets, something they consider blasphemous.
In the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt we understand that a version of the film will be released that removes all scenes of intimacy — be they heterosexual or homosexual.
The religious freaks who run these countries might be homophobic psychos, but at least they’re saving people from wasting their time and money.
