Round 1B: The Lion King 1 1/2 (2004) vs. Mulan (1998)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
The Lion King 1 1/2:
“This movie is about Timon and Pumbaa raising a child together”
“Just 2 dudes raising their son and dealing with commitment issues. The movie heavily leans into the bit that Timon and Pumba are like a couple. Timon is voiced by gay icon Nathan Lane. This movie was my childhood.”
Other propaganda for the original movie with the same idea:
“Simba was literally raised by a gay couple (Timon and Pumba…Timon even literally wears drag in the movie)”
“Timon and Puumba are a queer couple that raised simba into adulthood. Scar is a mean gay. Nuff said”
“Timone and Pumbaa are Simba's gay adoptive dads.”
Mulan:
“Trans awakening for so many of us”
“Well Mulan gives off very non-binary vibes”
“Literally listen to the music also Li Shang”
“just what your intro post said - Milan being trans (or gnc) coded and Li Shang being bi coded. like come on do i even need to explain? I’ll just add that I was listening to “Reflection” on repeat cuz the lines “Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?…When will my reflection show who I am inside?” we’re stuck in my head. So with that song on loop I decided to finally chop my hair short in true Milan fashion (ok that’s a lie, I didn’t do it myself, but the PRINCIPLE) so not only is Milan trans/gnc coded but I can’t be the only one the movie inspired to finally go for The Haircut or something else related. sry that’s very rambly”
“gnc. bisexual. what more could u want.”
“Both trans and gay coded. Shang was so into Ping that he couldn’t stand to execute him for his “crime”. Also includes drag saving the day!”
“This is less a competition for the queerest movie and more a competition for the second queerest movie. Just *look* at every aspect of Mulan and tell me it’s even a contest.”
“Not only is mulan super trans coded but Shang is definitly bi”
“I know it's the obvious pick, but Mulan is so gender and Shang is so bi. 💯💯💯”
“Mulan is very trans coded. Li Shang is totally bi. Dude absolutely had a thing for “Ping” before learning he was actually a woman (Mulan). Also watching that movie as a young egg made me feel less alone about the fact that I didn’t fit into the “girl” role everyone around me pushed me into. Mulan was kind of my hero and sometimes listening to Reflection makes me tear up a little bit because it’s such a mood but also such a TRANS mood. It’s probably my favorite Disney movie song. “Why is my reflection someone I don’t know” made me THINK as a kid. Disney may be evil but they did the world a great service with Mulan.”
“It is obvious why”
“If movies could turn you trans this one did it to me”
“I mean I assume this one is going to be there, but what if we all think “oh everyone is going to put mulan so I won’t” and then nobody does?”
“it’s mulan”
“Gender”
“Mulan is so trans, however you want to read her (as a trans man, genderqueer, genderfluid, etc.) and Shang is hella bi. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk”
“This movie is SOOOOO trans coded. Captain Li is a bisexual icon. As an Asian queer person I have sat and cried to Reflection by Lea Salonga while staring in a mirror too many times to count. Can I be my authentic self without making my parents who I love hate me? It's too good.”
“My little asian tboy awakening”
“Can be read as transmasc- he finds his true purpose/calling in life by presenting as male- or as transfem- she goes against everyone’s expectations for her by revealing her true self as a woman. A very trans movie. Also just a very good movie in general.”

Round 1A: The Little Mermaid (1989) vs. The Great Mouse Detective (1986)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
The Little Mermaid:
“It's an allegory about transitioning under the Benjamin Standards actually.”
“Like. c'mon. the original fairytale its based on was literally written by a closeted gay man as a metaphor for how his love for another man was doomed. also ursula is a drag queen”
“She's trans-human, or something. The Queer experience of wanting to know what else is out there, if there are people like you, like you in your soul, put there. Of wanting to go to a place where you are safe to ask everything you want to ask and be whatever way you want to be.”
“any movie howard ashman writes lyrics for is gonna be pretty gay”
“The trans metaphor is right there, guys!! Plus Ursula being based on a Drag Queen. And most importantly: Howard Ashman.”
“The original story is about Hans Christian Andersen being in love with a man but knowing he could never be with him. And the movie itself is very queer. You could read queerness into Ariel’s fascination with the human world and wanting to be part of that world rather than the one she “belongs” in. Being willing to cut off contact and move far away from your family because you’ll never be accepted by them, especially after a parent violently rejects something important to or about you. Ursula.”
“a lot of ink has been spilled on why the little mermaid is a metaphor for internalised homophobia, with hans christian anderson's own thoughts regarding his bisexuality coming through in the character of the princess (ariel) who wans to be a real woman so she can be with the man she loves. this also lends itself ot trans readings in the mdoern day. of course, the 1989 film was written by howard ashman, himself a gay man, and it is possible to read the alternate, happier ending to this film adaptation as a hopeful retelling for gay people towards the end of the 20th century. its gay”
“Part of Your World??? Ariel literally transitioning from a mermaid to a human. bYE”
“Girl have you Seen or Heard the behind the scenes of Ursula”
“Ursula literally being based on the drag queen Divine”
“The whole plot is a trans allegory imo. Ariel feeling like she’s be happy with “just one day on land” screamsssss trans person wanting to be seen as their gender. Plus she literally got “bottom surgery” lmao. (Tl;dr: I’m trans and it’s my fav so I say so. /j)”
“hans christian anderson wrote the little mermaid as an allegory for being gay. therefore these films are literally gay. disney swept it under the rug but i will not. also that "i can't believe we're both goth and trans" post”
The Great Mouse Detective:
“The protagonist, Basil, and antagonist, Ratigain, are practically bitter exes. Basil literally has a giant photo of his “”””enemy”””” above his fireplace, come on!”
“Vincent Price as Ratigan is so obviously over the top queer coded, but this is one of the few Disney movies where the protagonist, Basil, is also queer coded. It’s more subtle, but all Sherlock Holmes type characters are queer coded. Also the movie ends with Basil asking Dawson, this movie’s Watson, to stay and live with him so yeah”
“As per usual, Basil (Holmes) is V queer. Confirmed bachelor, immediately ready to play happy homes with Watson, Ratigan is Basil's flamboyant ex.”
“i can't explain it but basil the mouse is gay and so is the vincent price rat”
“It’s based on Sherlock Holmes so right away the Basil/Dawson relationship is. Very queer. Also Ratigan is a queer-coded villain.”

Round 1B: Encanto (2021) vs. Beauty and the Beast (1991)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Encanto:
“Theres like a lot behind the characters, but i feel like the fandom would agree camilo is the most”
“As a lesbian I very much relate to Isabella and Luisa. Isabella being forced to marry a man and Luisa is just a masc icon”
“Isabela gives me very queer vibes. Like not only does her song What Else Can I Do have all this bisexual lighting in the movie, the messaging of the song, letting down your front and just letting yourself be…idk kinda sounds like a closeted queer anthem. Especially since in the context of the movie she’s singing the song right after she tells Mirabel that she never wanted to marry that one guy, who canonically is like the most eligible bachelor in town or something”
“IMO, it's easy to see it as an allegory for being ace in a world where almost everyone else is allo and overcoming acephobia, Mirabel being a stand in for an ace person (having no powers in the movie) and the rest of her family for allos (they have powers).”
“Mirabel is SO bi, Bruno is even more aroace and Isabella is such a lesbian.”
Beauty and the Beast:
“Cogsworth and Lumière are the definition of old married couple”
“Howard Ashman”
“Lumiere and Cogsworth kinda had that weird rivals to lovers thing going on. You could also make an argument for Gaston and LeFou (he’s canonically gay in the live action).”
“First first gay Disney character”
Mod note: as you may be able to tell, I’m a big fan of BatB and it was what inspired this tournament in the first place after I played Cogsworth in a production of it last year. Through that I also found out that both the actor that played him in the original movie and the live action remake are gay so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but yeah this is gonna be the only time make my own propaganda for the tournament just cuz it’s the inspiration

Hercules:
“Hades is literallyyyy flaming. limpest wrists in the underworld.”
“This movie just has a queer vibe to it”
“Hades.”
Pocahontas:
“Every Romeo & Juliet story is queer, I don’t make the rules. Bonus sad ending where they can’t be together, which is in line with the original R&J & also very queer”
““If I never knew you” is SO queer it’s mind-blowing.
“The bi panic is poignant:

I felt like this piece of propaganda for The Fox and the Hound deserved its own post (also I didn’t want to crowd that post lmao)
This movie can be read as a queer allegory so easily.
Firstly, it starts with a woman named Widow Tweed adopting a fox cub. Foxes are known in society as being dangerous, but she treats the fox cub like she would any other pet. Tod the fox is essentially domesticated like a dog. Tweed isn't shown to have any children, Tod is her child. She can be read as both a widow/single mother or as a lesbian/lgbt woman that lives alone and minds her business.
Then we have Amos Slade the hunter. He's portrayed as sort of redneck character, loves hunting a lot. He gets himself a new dog, a puppy named Copper, because his other dog Chief is getting too old. Amos is shown to be intolerant as a person through the fact that he tries to shoot at Tod when the fox cub is young and Tod was playing with Copper inside Amos' property. Tweed yells at him and rushes to grab Tod and take him away, while Amos yells back that she can't keep such a dangerous animal around and that Tod needs to be put down. He also doesn't want his puppy Copper have anything to do with Tod, despite the two young animals having a growing friendship.
Just through the adults, it shows the dynamics of a possibly queer woman raising a queer child being shunned by society and told their child is a menace and needs to be hurt or worse, versus a straight white man with traditional American values/love of guns wanting to keep their child away from 'the wrong sort' and believing he knows best.
Then we have the actual main backbone of the film, Tod and Copper's friendship. They're a very wholesome and adorable pair. When they first meet they're curious about one another, never seeing the other type of animal before, sniffing each other, asking questions. But they quickly start playing with each other. They get along amazingly well and are as thick as thieves. Copper has no preconceived notions that Tod is 'dangerous' and Tod doesn't realize that he's 'different' or that Copper's a hunting dog that would be trained to hunt him. They're equals and love to play and explore, and call each other their best friend. They promise they'll be friends forever. Of course that can't happen, because of Amos' stubbornness and intolerance, his rigidity to tradition. Tod is born a fox even if he's been domesticated and acts more like a dog, and foxes are bad. He takes Copper away to take him hunting in the woods for a year, ripping apart the friendship his puppy and the fox kit have.
The pair are adults when Copper comes back. Tod tries to sneak in to speak to him. Copper tells him that they can't be friends anymore, which saddens Tod, who wanted them to go back to how things were before when they were kids, the closeness they had. Chief finds out about Tod and barks for Amos, starting a chase. Copper catches Tod but lets him go, trying to divert his owner from Tod's trail. Chief however finds Tod and keeps chasing him. The two almost get killed by a passing train, with Chief sustaining an injury. This enrages Copper and Amos, all of them swearing vengeance on Tod. Tod is horrified that his old best friend now wants him dead. Tweed is in tears as she realizes how much in danger Tod is, so she goes to a reserve to let Tod back into the wild. Later Copper and Amos go to the same reserve to hunt Tod. The hunters accidentally stumble across a bear and it's provoked to attack. Copper tries to fight the bear off to protect his owner, who had dropped his gun. Copper nearly dies but Tod jumps in to help in the fight, and the two end up falling down a river/waterfall. Amos goes to find Copper again, finding him with Tod and is ready to shoot. Copper positions himself in front of Tod to protect him and show his owner he's not going back on his friend again. Amos lowers his gun, realizing that Tod saved their lives. Tod and Copper reconcile, promising they're still friends and sharing one last smile, before Copper leaves the reserve forever. When he's at home, Copper reminisces about the day he met Tod, smiling to himself before falling asleep.
This film is literally THE perfect queer allegory, it's just told through animals than through people. Tod and Copper are so very gay, that sort of weird stage in queer best friendship where you're sort of in love with one another, but can't come to admit it because of issues coming up (like homophobic parents).
Help me I didn't realize I wrote an entire research paper in your submissions, I'm so sorry, I just adore this film and think it's underrated.

Round 1A: Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) vs. Newsies (1992)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Atlantis: The Lost Empire:
“I know Milo is trans because he is exactly like me in every other way why wouldn't he be this way too”
“Milo is a twink and Helga is butch I rest my case”
“Audrey”
“Helga Sinclair is literally there, gay awakening of many along with Kida and Audrey”
“Literally everyone on the exploration team is some form of queer coded except for Commander Rourke. From weedy Academia Disater Bi Milo, to lesbian coded mechanic Audrey, to the crotchety, gossiping, seen it all and death's too intimidated to take her old queer Wilhelmina Packard. Plus how all of them wear their crystals at the end of the movie... They are not straight.”
Newsies:
“i could make a supercut if i had the energy. 1: kenny ortega word of god confirmed trans racetrack, 2: the male leads get a balcony scene, a weird alley scene where one shoved the other against a wall by the chest and it’s REALLY gay, at the end when jack decides to stay it cuts to DAVEY (these r the male leads) instead of sarah (the love interest), 3: in one of the songs one of the characters sings “ain’t i pretty” and one of the other guy characters nods. also it’s a musical about the underdogs/oppressed winning yes it’s based on a real thing but yk. and they made the ending a lot happier and all the main characters are amalgamations of people/made up”
“Just gay as hell tbh”
“Kenny Ortega, the director, confirmed that he purposefully queercoded it! Jack and Davey almost kiss like 20 times and the have a balcony scene also Blink and Mush are constantly cuddling in the background.”
“it’s directed by a gay person, same guy who directed the high school musical movies, so everything that’s super gay can be assumed to deliberate, literally certifiably gay coded. it revolves around the friendship between these two guys. it’s a lot to get into maybe i’ll get back to you later but it’s really gay and also my favorite movie, i mean my name on here is literally transfagjackkelly”

Round 1B: The Emperor’s New Groove (2000) vs. Lilo & Stitch (2002)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
The Emperor’s New Groove:
“That llama boy is gay. Probably genderqueer as well.”
“look at it.”
“just watch the movie it is blindingly obvious from like the first scene (no…no…no…)”
“I mean, i think kuzco is enough propaganda by himself”
“Kuzco is insanely queercoded. There's the way he immediately dismisses any women based on superficial traits, but seems very interested in Kronk. There's the crossdressing scene, which he was very into. And also just look at him.”
“Kuzco is a twink”
“Kuzco is a twink. Eartha Kitt is a gay icon. Kronk...”
“- come on, have you Seen Kuzko? That boy is a Twink.
- every character is So So queer coded in some way
- it's just,,,, so gay”
“You can't tell me those bitches ain't gay. The Llama guy (blanking on the name rn) literally rejected like 5 women rapid fire. Also kronk is queer ty”
“Kuzco is gender envy. Kuzco is gender queer/fluid.”
“That whole scene with Kuzco and Pacha in the restaurant that is all.”
“Kuzco is heavily queercoded in his mannerisms. The start of the movie has him rejecting a line of women as potential marriage candidates, being picky with their appearances. After that, he seems to be interested in asking Yzma about her henchman Kronk. Post llama-turning, he bickers a lot with Pacha but ends up creating a nearly familial bond with him. During a bit where they hide in the restaurant, Kuzco enthusiastically dresses in drag and pretends to be Pacha's wife. Pacha tells the waitress its their honey, with the waitress saying something about it "being brave to come out today", which could have two different meanings. After the movie and Kuzco returns to being a man, he doesn't get together with any woman like most films would. Instead, he finds himself a found family with Pacha, his wife, their two kids, and Kronk. If that's not queer-coded, I don't know what is.”
“Kuzco is so fucking gay and the film is completely unselfconcious and unapologetic. His mannerisms, his complete lack of a female love interest, the way his solution to hiding being a talking llama is to pretend to be Pacha's wife (???). His role model and only parental figure is a dramatic older woman played by Ertha Kit. And it's not just Kuzco; Kronk most certainly has the vibe to him. The casual gender non-conformance is off the charts. The Emperor's New Groove was a Disney movie that skirted under the corporate radar, made with very little input from the company itself. It is one of a kind and there will never be another one like it.”
“-Nothing about Kuzco is straight
-First off, the way he dresses and has incredible fucking hair. Like I know that emperor's were deemed as gods, and having them dress with pure gold jewelry and high quality clothing was a must.BUT STILL, HE PULLS IT OFF
-the scene were he turns down all of the women who were there for one of them to be his wife...BRO HE WAS SO SASSY AND SAVAGE AS HE COMMENTED ON THEIR APPEARANCES, TELLING THEM THINGS LIKE THAT THEY DON'T PULL OF THAT HAIRCUT AND SHIT LIKE THAT
-Don't even get me started on the diner scene with Pacha
-Twink....I will not elaborate”
“:)”
Lilo & Stitch:
“Pleakley and jumba are queer. I will fight people about this. And then they joined the found family to end all found families and co-parent with Nani. Change my mind ( you can't)”
“Jumba and Pleakley are MARRIED and you cannot tell me otherwise”
“The aliens are gay.”
“Trans icon Wendy Pleakley and their boyfriend Jumba”
“We stan Pleakley crossdressing”
“this is THE gay movie to me. It’s all about the found family. Stitch was cast out for being an “abomination” but then he found the place where he belongs with people who love him. Pleakley and Jumbaa are literally married”
“Found Family, cross dressing, self love, what else do you need?”
“I know Pleakley only gets to go whole hog on the crossressing in the TV show, but the movie is where he got his start.”

Round 1A: Luca (2021) vs. High School Musical 2 (2007)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Luca:
“Honest to god never beating the gay allegations.”
“Do I even need to? I think watching the movie is enough”
“i mean the whole movie is a metaphor for being in the closet. it centers on two boy best friends, one of whom gets jealous over the other spending time with a girl, there’s a scene where one of them gets outed (as a sea monster) and the other throws him under the bus so he gets to stay “normal” and then outs himself later on, like. luca is Gay”
“i’m assuming this has a million submissions but just in case i wanted to submit it. it’s literally a story abt being a kid and being in love with your best friend and having to hide part of yourself from the world, if you’ve seen it then you KNOW”
“Gay fish bois”
“Ya’ll… Just watch it. The relationship between Luca and Alberto. The metaphor of sea monsters for Queerness. The old sea monster ladies who are absolutely a couple. It made conservatives angry. It’s gotta be up there!!”
“Them boys be gay”
“It's just so obviously a story of self discovery and suuuuuper relatable to anyone who had to hide their queerness for their own saftey”
“please the sea monster plotline was SUCH an lgbt metaphor”
“Gay fishes fall in love”
“By gosh those fish boys are gay”
“It's not my *favourite* movie, but it's obviously the one that most fits the criteria. Like, it's not even a competition. The whole movie can easily be read as an allegory for being gay and closeted. The two boys are secretly sea monsters, but have to hide it because the people in the little Italian village are scared of sea monsters and won't accept them. When Alberto is discovered to be a sea monster, Luca claims he had no idea to protect himself. They were both afraid to come out to Guilia's extremely masculine dad, but he turns out to be a very accepting dude. Eventually Luca reveals himself to also be a sea monster and the townsfolk learn to accept them. Many other townsfolk then also reveal themselves to be secretly sea monsters, including these two old women who are definitely a lesbian couple.”
“Alberto gets wayyyyy to jelly to be straight”
“Luca is a coming of age film about two italian boys who are so clearly implied to be in love. yes it's friendship. but if you Watch The Film it's so so clear. hype for it died very fast but when it first came out the queer community was collectively pointing at it and going "look look look look" it also imo has some serious trans narrative vibes with the whole sea creature thing”
“those boys definitely had some sort of awakening when they met”
High School Musical 2:
“I. Don’t. Dance.”
“Haha Ryannn and Chad”
“Submitting this video essay for your consideration which explains how Chad and Ryan definitely fucked after the events of the song “I Don’t Dance”:

Round 1B: Strange World (2022) vs. Raya and the Last Dragon (2023)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Strange World:
“Can you be queer coded if you are canonically queer?”
“First openly gay can’t edit him out character”
“The main character is canonically and pretty explicitly gay! Actual Disney first gay character™”
“Comfort movie with gay protagonist”
Raya and the Last Dragon:
“Lesbians!!!!!”
“Rayaari my beloved...”
“Raya and Namaari call each other dep la, which could mean strangely beautiful or screaming slippers in Vietnamese — who knows even the Vietnamese dubbers don’t know, and Namaari has a stereotypical queer hair cut. And Raya sounds like a very betrayed ex whenever Namaari is involved. It’s been a while since I’ve rewatched the movie. There’s most likely other submissions with better raya is queer propaganda than mine”
“hello?? raya and namaari calling each other dep la?? thats literally a pet name. i think it also means beautiful in vietnamese which is so fucking gay. raya and namaari are extremely queer coded AND raya's voice actress ships it.”
“not disney’s best work but my god those bitches gay”

Round 1B: Sleeping Beauty (1959) vs. The Pirate Fairy (2014)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Sleeping Beauty:
“Whatever Maleficient had going on”
“Aurora is literally raised by 3 single women…medieval lesbian polycule vibes. Also like that scene where Aurora and Philip’s dads get drunk together is pretty gay ngl”
The Pirate Fairy:
“just look at it man”
Other Tinkerbell series propaganda since there was only one submission for Pirate Fairy itself and it was decided through prelims:
“the relationship between Tinkerbell and Slivermists friendship was supposed to be much more of a main focus in the franchise but at some point they decided not to do that for whatever godam reason but in the first movie there are no male characters who present as love interests (the only male characters we see heavily involved are Clank and Bobble who also seem very much gay for each other in my opinion) and a love intrest is shoved in near the end of the movie and seemed to be very forced seeing as he has only appeared twice and hadnt spoken a single word which to me makes it appear very forced and a bit of a last minute decision almost as if the directors realised that they needed to make it conform to with the rest of their movies that had a female lead up until that point also you cannot tell me Tinkerbell and the rest of our main group of varies arent all in love with each other and dating”
“Lesbians love tinkerbell I'm lesbians”
“Tinkerbell and Vidia enemies to lovers anyone? Also, the disney fairy movies are definitely a part of the hyper-feminine-media-for-little-girls-reclaimed-by-the-sapphics universe.”

Round 1A: Moana (2016) vs. The Fox and the Hound (1981)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
Moana:
“I'm asexual and Moana is very important to me as an asexual icon because all we want in this life is adventure and garlic bread. There is no garlic bread in Moana but you know she'd love it if she had it. The absolute lack of romantic plots in Moana make it the most aroace movie Disney has put out and the only slightly related thing is when that one guy flirts with her in where you are and she is disgusted. We stan an asexual aromantic daughter of the village chief!“
“One, I just googled the release year, and no way it came out 7 years ago! It’s like, three years old at worst. Secondly, Moana is an aro-ace icon.”
“1) No love interest for the main character. And that’s not even a focus for her (or really her family) 2) there’s something about the line “and the call isn’t out there at all its inside me” from I am Moana that really speaks to me as someone who thought I was just an ally to the community but later learned im hella queer.”
The Fox and the Hound:
Honestly this piece of propaganda was so well written I’m just gonna post it separately and link it here (also the way it’s copy-pasted/formatted makes it hard to just put in a post)
“The world forced them apart :(”

“I know in my heart that Brady and Mack are bi and Lela and Tanner are learning they’re lesbian and gay respectively.”
