I was lucky to see the finished short and have lunch with Teddy and producer, Kevin Reher when I visited Pixar a few months ago and although it’s very very different to anything you’ll have seen before, I know you’re going to love it.
I was going to try and explain what Night and Day is all about but Pixar Talk have the official blurb here which saves me wracking my head around how to explain it without spoiling it.
When Day, a sunny fellow, encounters Night, a stranger of distinctly darker moods, sparks fly! Day and Night are frightened and suspicious of each other at first, and quickly get off on the wrong foot. But as they discover each other’s unique qualities–and come to realize that each of them offers a different window onto the same world–the friendship helps both to gain a new perspective.

Oh I cannot wait to see that movie! And David, lucky you, I would love to meet the people behind!

It's homosexual Propaganda!
“You would have to be pretty naïve to not identify the attempt to indoctrinate the viewer with a “more open and accepting view” of sexual experimentation, namely homosexuality as was artistically illustrated by the two male characters sharing a bewildering rainbow-in-the-crotch experience. The concern we should have is WHY we would trust them to indoctrinate our Youth with social, sexual, or political messages of any kind. Remember when stories had “Morals” and not “Immorals”?
Additionally strange is the exaltation of Wayne Dyers quote. That guy is a moron and a fraud, and why it would be chosen for inclusion in a children's animation must make perfect sense to only fools. Unless of course, it was chosen to once again punctuate the blatant cry for acceptance of other peoples' unorthodox sexual orientation. Creatively, this animated short was clever until Teddy Newton added his own dissolute agenda. “
(Sorry “Don't Apologize” I am using your quotes cause you say it so well!)
What the Heck, there were gays in Egypt in the days when the pyramids were built, there were gays in ancient China and there were gays throughout the glories of classical Greece and Rome. There were gays even in Afghanistan under the Taliban (where homosexuality was punishable by death) and there are gays in the U.S. Army currently fighting there in the name of freedom — the same freedoms American gays enjoy, however “unorthodox” you may think gays are, thanks to the Constitution in general and the Supreme Court’s Lawrence v Texas ruling in particular. The same Supreme Court which ruled in 1952 that movies were covered by the First Amendment. Do you consider those judgments to be “gay propaganda” as well?
I fear for the stability of your worldview, not to mention the psychosexual health of your offspring, if either can be so shaken by the sight of 2 cartoon Smurfs!
(Oh, and guess what? There’ll still be gays in this world, still enjoying the same freedoms, still subject to the same rights and responsibilities, as their fellow citizens, when you and I are just forgotten names on lichen-covered gravestones.)
It is propaganda not because of the issue but because of how they are poytraying it in the movie. You cant do stuff like that in kids shows.
