The Film Censorship board in Malaysia are not happy with the "gay scene" where two of the male characters are dancing in a ballroom. The film board claims that the scene will promote homosexuality. Disney is standing their ground and telling the film board in Malaysia that they will not be cutting the scene because the scene is only three seconds long. The chairman Abdul Halim Adbul Hamid "It is in our guidelines that we don’t allow L.G.B.T. activity in movies in Malaysia, They are the ones not allowing the movie to be shown. We approved it with a minor cut.” The chairman says that if Disney had only cut the three second scene they would have given the movie a PG-13 rating.

Sad news in the Disney world to report. Those of you that know of Push the Talking Trash Can will be sad because they have retired his as on February 9th. Many in the Disney community have been arguing about if it was true or not but a screen shot of a internal Disney message board stated that they aren't having him anymore. As of today (February 10th) Disney said that since contract negotiations are confidential they are willing to admit that they couldn't come to terms and agree on continuing with the guy who made Push. If you don't know who Push is he is a trash can that moves around Tomorrowland at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World and he talks with guests, dances with them and just interacts with them.
