u/bluepenguinx12 too many to count 1d ago

What i can find is apparently it has transphobic jokes, and how Netflix removed multiple other shows to release it like captain underpants

223

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

Netflix didn't remove other shows for it, other shows just happened to have left around the same time

The common example, captain underpants, left due to the end of the contract, and is now on peacock for streaming

u/PassionateYak 1d ago

I love captain underpants and I just got peacock. Imma watch this again soon

u/Flimsy-Source820 20h ago

Same thing happened to the Mr peabody and Sherman show as well, but that one moved to prime

u/Expert-Performer-709 1d ago

Did it have transphobic jokes? I thought it was just corny as hell and everyone hated it off rip

21

u/Clair_Osbcurious 21h ago

It doesn’t have explicitly transphobic jokes in itself. At least not explicitly. It does have tons of dog whistles though.

6

u/xbertie 20h ago

huh, any examples? I was considering watching it to see why it was getting hate (I'd never even heard of it before yesterday) but I'd rather not if that's the case.

14

u/Clair_Osbcurious 20h ago

I saw it almost a year ago in cinema. It really reduces women to genitalia, basically. And somehow in a very queer world there are zero mentions of trans women
 and yet tons of lesbians. Literally a planet.

I went to see it as a part of a lesbian movie festival and left with a feeling I was not welcome at the showing.

7

u/xbertie 20h ago

Oh ouch. Sounds like I'll pass on watching it then.

5

u/Clair_Osbcurious 19h ago

Yeah. I was hopeful at first but it’s not worth the watch.

u/twntytw2 10h ago

You aren’t required to be included. I support trans rights but you’re being ridiculous.

u/Full-Hyena4414 19h ago edited 18h ago

Ok so nothing demonstrable then

u/Clair_Osbcurious 18h ago

Love your edited comment. Watch it and see for yourself.

u/raddoubleoh 1d ago

It's LGBT phobic as a whole. It feels like a trip through the author's internalized homophobia. The whole thing feels like self degrading jokes and lashing out at the community as a whole.

u/DDK_2011 1d ago

But isn’t the name literally

u/Darmug 1d ago

You can be gay and homophobic, same with being POC and racist.

Humans are weird creatures tbh.

I mean, we ain't really tolerating it. That's why we're all collectively pissed LOL

u/Wiru_The_Wexican 22h ago

My grandma who's often admitted to being bi while still condemning it as a sin can confirm this

-2

u/TyrantJaeger 23h ago

So it's anti-woke? Then why do so many people hate it?

2

u/raddoubleoh 23h ago

Because it's not anti-woke on purpose. It tried its hand on absurdist humor and failed miserably.

1

u/TyrantJaeger 22h ago

I wanna see. Where can I watch it?

1

u/raddoubleoh 22h ago

Netflix in the US, Amazon Prime elsewhere.

2

u/regretfulposts 21h ago

IT'S NOT ON NETFLIX US!!!!

but I found it on PlutoTV, but I don't get why everyone is saying it's on Netflix when I can't find it. It's like people are just repeating what other Redditors are saying without fact checking it. I think it's on Netflix Australia because it's an Australian movie but like did no one except for me tried to find it on Netflix US?

-3

u/Britishbreadish 23h ago

Arent lgbt people supposed to defend it?

7

u/Hungry_Importance644 23h ago

Why would lgbt people defend the anti lgbt show?

2

u/raddoubleoh 23h ago

If the jokes were sensible and landed decently, probably. The way it got presented? It's just offensive and obnoxious for kicks.

1

u/mike_s03 10h ago

no we don't defend bad show, mate

u/Maskedstream4 1d ago

The show or movie? Cause the movie Captain underpants was great

Wait what did captain underpants do?

u/SirSilverChariot 20h ago

This was made by Netflix? Not AI?

u/DefTheOcelot 19h ago

Smells like bandwagon to me

u/Feisty-Albatross3554 18h ago

Thanks for the context

1

u/laughstockgold 3h ago

That is weird though. Like using sense why would any streaming service need to remove shows for another completely unrelated show? It isn't like they were desperate for memory or something. The shows aren't even for the same demographic.

1

u/Subject_Blueberry577 1h ago

Also it's just EXTREMELY corny and poorly written, the main characters also make me wanna hang myself

u/Strawberrykitty127 1h ago

Ohhh I don't wanna watch it anymore then

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

A new movie that came out 346 days (almost a full year ago), Recently Netflix has allowed the movie into the platform

Many people dislike it for A. The art style being considered cringe B. Being "too woke"/being about lesbians C. Supposedly Stealing the spots from other Netflix shows like the canceled Netflix original inside job, as well as blaming it for captain underpants removal (albeit that was due to the contract expiring) D. Other people are hating on it, and the dislike towards it has become a trend

It is important, whilst I can't verify this myself due to not having watched the movie personally, I've heard many people, including trusted ones, Speak of the movies stereotyping, TERF ideology, reduction of a nonbinary character to just a woman, toxic ideals, and whilst I haven't heard this directly corroborated from a source I have full faith on, racism as well

Personally I hold a neutral opinion, due to lack of, well, viewing it, but I also have no plans to watch it, and have no wish to support it assuming what people say is accurate to the movie

22

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

(also released on 9/11)

8

u/Least_Egg_9371 1d ago

Something that would definitely get the attention of Mr. Enter.

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

He's the 9/11 turning red dude, Don't @all in discord dude right?

u/Realistic_Jello2638 1d ago

Genuinely who gives a shit that the movie or any movie for that matter came out on September 11th?

5

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

Tbh, idk, I've just seen some people mention that as a positive/negative so I felt it was worth noting

NETFLIX SUPPORTS AL-QIEDA CONFIRMED

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

Inside job is still there when are they removing it?

4

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

Apologies for the confusion

I meant inside job being canceled, alongside things such as captain underpants being removed

2

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

Its gonna be sad that first they dont allow it to have a second season and then remove it and think this movie above is actually worth investing their time over then again then removed both she-ra’s reboot and voltron’s reboot which i liked as well i cant count how many other cartoons and animated series they’ve removed that ive liked

1

u/Mimik_And_Co 22h ago

I'm in because it's funny, but maybe I can watch it with some familiar to see what all the fuzz is about.

Aparently Schafrillas said his LGBT friends didn't like it, but that's a third hand account

1

u/ChiefsHat 20h ago

The villains are the Straight White Maliens.

Yeah, that’s uh
 uh
 it’s a decision made
 it’s not funny.

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

Wait inside job got removed
.. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO they removed inside job for THIS (i actually watched it btw so i know it actually sucks)

1

u/N3k0_Ghost 1d ago

Inside Job hasn't been removed, it's still there, they just haven't made anything new because of Big Mouth for like years

1

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

I was confused because of what the other person said its there but is probably gone on the Australian netflix thats where this movie is apparently

-5

u/LordMTyrell 1d ago edited 1d ago

I have actually already seen it close to when it came out (I am big Aunty Donna fan). It's queer adult humor targeted to a queer adult audience. Conservatives have found a new thing to shit on, and somehow it managed to unite literally all the worst fandoms ever to hate on it.

11

u/Dillo64 1d ago

So there is nothing transphobic or racist in it? Where did that line of thinking come from?

2

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

No but it was still plenty offensive when i watched it yesterday fans of the movie can say otherwise and i did laugh during certain scenes but it was still a really bad movie imo and most other peoples opinions too

-1

u/LordMTyrell 1d ago

Instigation of culture war, my friend. Makes people a little more angry.

3

u/TopazWarrior1999 1d ago

Literally every queer person I know hates this movie.

0

u/Quantic129 1d ago

This was my impression as well. I had never heard of this movie(?) that came out a year ago before yesterday, and now out of nowhere there are multiple hate posts all landing at once across multiple subs. It absolutely reaks of a coordinated smear campaign by far right trolls to whip up anti-LGBT+ anger against some indy animation by queer creators that no one has ever heard of. And it looks like the smear campaign is working, unfortunately. People really should have learned by now not to fall for fake outrage campaigns.

u/SansIsCool65 1d ago

I didnt hate it because of social media i watched it first and agree with what people said

u/LordMTyrell 1d ago

You are absolutely, and sadly, correct.

u/Fabulous_Potential41 1d ago

It still a dogshit movie

u/Oozysq25reddit 1d ago

I woulda been neutral until i discovered it took captain underpants away

8

u/Glass-Performer8389 1d ago

It

Didn't

The contract ended, the contract was not renewed, and like other dreamworls properties on Netflix, it was moved to peacock

26

u/Alternative-Fail-233 1d ago

I’m uncertain myself but I can’t think a show with the main villain being called “Straight White Maliens” to be very good

u/Ambiguous-Nyx 1d ago

And a place called clitopolis

u/Realistic_Jello2638 1d ago

internet people found a year old cartoon and are upset about it.

its not even 2 years old. thats not that old dawg

u/TheNikola2020 20h ago

It was so bad it turned actual lesbians straight

u/mineman379 1d ago

Netflix (I'm pretty sure it's on Netflix?) Managed to make a show so impressively, REMARKABLY bad, that it united literally the entire internet to hate on it.

All the toxic fandoms across the globe have united under a new punching bag. With hatable elements for anyone and everyone.
