Gay Moment Promised in New Beauty and the Beast Film

by
Beauty and the Beast - Josh Gad

Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast, due on March 17, will feature a watershed moment for the studio: an “exclusively gay moment” for the character of LeFou, according to director Bill Condon. Attitude reports: While the reimagined romantic classic, featuring Emma Watson and former Downton Abbey star Dan Stevens, might seem like the ultimate celebration of heterosexual love, it’s actually harbouring a treasure trove of gay secrets – and is set to make history with Disney’s first ever “exclusively gay moment” on film. …Played by US actor Josh Gad, the character of LeFou serves as the sidekick to the film’s primary antagonist Gaston (Luke … Read more

by
Deadpool

Our favorite anti-hero is back to save the day. Or at least come super close to saving it. On Saturday, Ryan Reynolds released a teaser for the upcoming “Deadpool 2” movie on YouTube. In it, the badly scarred, wise-cracking killer sees an elderly man getting robbed and takes to a phone booth to get changed. He doesn’t pull it off as well as Superman. Also, you get to see Reynolds’ butt ― and we know that’s why you clicked on this story. By Sebastian Murdock – Full Story at The Huffington Post

by
Star vs. The Forces of Evil

Star vs. The Forces of Evil, a Disney Channel cartoon now in its third season, featured a gay kiss without so much as a boycott by Focus on the Family.

While the band sings their song “Just Friends,” Star looks at the other happy couples around her starting to kiss. One of those couples is two men, complete with facial hair to make sure they are read as men. The show does not comment on this. It might not seem like much, … Read more

Glee Actor Chris Colfer Shopping Sci Fi Drama

by
Chris Colfer

Chris Colfer is taking it upon himself to craft his own TV comeback. The out actor and author has teamed with Sonar Entertainment to develop a pilot for the sci-fi drama Indigo that he would write, direct and star in. ‘Very excited for this! Fingers crossed,’ Colfer wrote on Instagram Friday (17 February). Indigo would be a far cry from Colfer’s Emmy-nominated role of gay high school student Kurt Hummel on Glee. Indigo explores the mysterious world of Indigo children — those who are misdiagnosed but wildly believed to possess extraordinary paranormal abilities — and the dark forces working to exploit their … Read more

Pop-Up ‘Star Trek’ Theater

by
Star Trek London Tube

Space isn’t the final frontier; the London Tube is. Well, it was for a group of possibly dedicated fans who decided to boldly go where few have gone before by acting out a scene dressed in Star Trek-esque uniforms while riding the subway Wednesday. The actors got the pseudo-serious tone of the series right, but the uniforms weren’t exactly identical. Their tunics had a lightning bolt logo, not the traditional Starfleet insignia, and the patch was placed near the righthand side, not the left. What the enterprising troupe lacked in elaborate special effects, though, they made up for with sheer … Read more

CRAFTS: Build an Ikea Death Star Lamp

by
Death Star Lamp

Star Wars fans around the globe are turning a simple IKEA lamp into a Death Star. As far as geeky interiors go, it can be hard to hit the balance between over the top and just right. While the writer doesn’t necessarily agree with having to tone it down to appear grown up, that doesn’t mean low-key geeky additions can’t be cool. Take a lamp looking like the Death Star, for example. Iconic in itself, but still obscure enough so your granddad or auntie who’s never seen Star Wars will only think it mildly curious, but not suspicious. By Stefanie … Read more
