Power Rangers gets 18+ age restriction in Russia over inclusion of LGBT character
 

This absolutely ridiculous. They mention it in one scene and, even then, they're pretty vague about it.

I wouldn't call it vague tbh but yeah, Russia's stupid for this and it means Malaysia's probably going to ban the movie

I thought it was pretty vague but that's neither here here nor their. Point is, this really sucks for the movie.

I read about this this morning. It’s ridiculous but I wasn’t too surprised. At least the film isn’t outright banned.

They're Communists, what did you expect?

Russia isn't communist since 1991

Russia stop being the Communist over 25 years ago. NK, China and Cuba are the last communist nations that we have.

Russia has stopped being Red for a long time. What this actually is would be a law outlawing pro-gay propaganda esp. toward children (think stuff like that book about the two gay penguins raising a chick). The reason the film just got a higher rating as opposed to an all out ban is because Trini's homosexuality, based on what has been said about it, is pretty much a throwaway line that just establishes her as being gay and pretty much nothing else, rendering it neither obstensibly pro- nor anti-gay and just wholly neutral on the subject.

Which makes me wonder why they don't just dub that dialogue out. It's an American film being shown in Russia, you need to create an entirely new dialogue track so why not just change the dialogue where she says she's gay? It worked in the 90s with Sailor Moon and CCS. Somewhat. Kinda. Not really.

And I'm serious, this seems like a problem that they could've just easily solved without any hassle by just dubbing it out. It's what I would expect China to do if an American film had a very small instance of content they found questionable.

Does anyone know if the film is being dubbed or subtitled?
