What are your thoughts about the representation or absence of women, people of color, the GLBTQ and other marginalized or historically oppressed people in movies, tv and the media?
I think its slowly getting better. Because there are many different levels of acceptance for certain races, lifestyles, etc. its hard for big companies to just jump right into all these diverse things. Not to make it seem like its okay, but I think you can't expect change to happen overnight, and although it isn't fair, most things in life aren't. Not to mention, pixar isn't bent on changing the world. They're bent on making movies. So whatever sells is what they're going to do. I do think its kind of ridiculous that there aren't more diverse leading characters, but it will change eventually.
