Why did the villain have to be gay?


What was the point of making King Candy effeminate? Would he have been any less effective a villain had he been straight?

Why do people always associate flamboyancy with being gay?

You are definitely reading too much into it. No one else I know saw that. Also, gay people aren't stereotypes. They're just as varied as anyone else. It is actually offensive for you to make them out to be. They're just people. Treat them as you would anyone you know.

Sugar Rush is a girlie game, maybe he didn't have much choice. Couldn't be a macho macho man.

There's nothing in the movie to support King Candy being queer.

LOL. "Effeminate"=homosexual automatically. I was unaware.
One thing I CAN tell is that a large percentage of IMDb accounts are registered for trolling purposes.

I don't think he was necessarily GAY. He was just whimsical, eccentric and very Mad-Hatterish (The old Alice In Wonderland Disney animation)! :)

Oh Shut up.

The guy's name is King Candy and rules a land made entirley out of sweets. What did you expect?

People complain when a bad guy is Black or Whatever and now somebody is complaining about a character that may or not be gay being the bad guy. Who effing cares
It was a great movie,but of course somebody has to be a buzz killer
