It took place in Britain-why would there be Native Americans in Britain?  (Sorry I'm annoying you).
The other points on the website seem decent, but the second point is hilarious.
I wonder if they'll boycott New Moon. There's no gay folks in the movie.
Also: Gezus Eosian, first we think you're a girl, then we (albeit with bias) think you're a heterosexual guy, and now we think you're a homosexual. Anything else you're not telling us? XD

THIS IS WHY. JUST SHUT THE HELL UP. RAGE.
"# Buy tickets to Avatar in bulk but do not attend showings. An empty theater sends a message"
YEAH THAT'LL SHOW THEM.
Agreed. But please keep in mind this is only ONE population of gay people, just like how rednecks and hicks are two...let's just say INTERESTING populations of white people.
And LOL at that suggestion. Completely agree with you, Mark. What a bunch of dumbasses.
Eosian Wrote:As a gay person that campaign actually disgusts me.
There are enough real issues and real inequities, who gives a flying gerbils ass if there aren't homos shown in a random scifi/fantasy movie? Unless they have a scene where gayness was "cured" explaining that's why there aren't any it's just irrelevant.
This protest isn't gay people being pissed off. It's pissed off people being pissed off and trying to drag gay into it.
Again, agreed with completely. There are a plethora of LGBT issues worth fighting for than the inclusion of such peoples into every major motion picture put out by Hollywood. Hell, this group of homos is fighting a sector of the American public that actually SUPPORTS LGBT issues. If anything we should thank Hollywood for their progressiveness.
James Cameron can do whatever the hell he wants with his movie. So what if it doesn't have different sexual orientations represented? ATTN stupid protesting gays: You have a lot more movies to protest than just Avatar if you're looking for representation in everything.

Totes true. Some groups of people are stupid; whatever.

Rob Wrote:Gay people, I'm disappoint.
Just want to make this clear: NOT ALL HARDLY ANY GAY PEOPLE SUPPORT THIS. Remember that while we identify with a group, we're all very diverse, different people. Not every gay guy is a cosmo-drinking, Alexander McQueen-wearing, musical theatre obsessing 'mo (though I am teehee). Similarly, not every black person's speech identifies as ebonics nor is every person of Middle Eastern descent a terrorist.
In other words, there are groups/factions in every distinct population. This is not a "mass-gay protest." It's just one tiny sliver of gays "doing it wrong."

Don't go so hard on the gays. If it weren't for such arrogant straight people all over the world, things wouldn't have to be like this.
It's all our fault... :<

I don't understand how they know there are no LGBT characters in the movie, to be honest. Do they have to display false lisps and flamboyancy in order to count? Dumbledore was gay. No one would've known if Rowling hadn't said anything. God forbid, we should ever act like anyone else would and not let our sexualities define us as individuals.

Look at the banner. 
At first I thought this material belongs to the Funhouse, my intuition was right on the money.
I have a question though, why Avatar?

Yes. Because the movies are DEFINITELY not making money still, regardless. >.>

I don't think that's true, at least not in general - Hollywood very much plays to popular stereotypes. Especially gender roles.

They play to popular stereotypes because that's what they are - popular. It's what makes them money. However, the actors behind the characters and the crew behind the movies are typically very liberal voters. It's something that's frequently joked about at the Oscars.

Dude, don't read too much over that phrase. I'm pretty aware they're just a faction between gays. I have a lot of gay friends (two in this forum) and I can clearly recognize different groups. I was joking.
