Pixar Luca Spoilers - Tumblr Posts
“Luca isn’t a queer movie” explain this then:
This is litterally a love song. the last one. the one in the end credits.
As an italian, I tried my best to translate it, so here you are:
Città vuota (empty city), by Mina
Streets full, the crowd around me talks to me and laughs and nothing knows about you I see around me the ones who pass through and go but I know that the city will seem empty if you don't come back
There's the ones who every night want me next to them but I don't care if he'll kiss me I only think about you, only about you and I know that the city will seem empty if you don't come back, how can you still live alone without me can't you feel that our love didn't end?
empty streets, desert without you I read your name everywhere around me come back to me my love and the city won't be empty anymore and I'll live with you the rest of my days
This movie had me feeling what no movie in years has been able to do. I havent been this happy about a movie since 2012, wreck it ralph.
Its very clear what this movie was representing and they did it perfectly. It isnt subtle but they manage to not overdo.
They dont queerbait, they queercode. Watching it as a gay trans man, its such a feel good movie with an ending that will leave you with such a happy feeling.
Honestly, well done pixar! This movie deserves so much hype and I hope it gets it.
“Some people, they’ll never accept him, but some will. And he seems to know how to find the good ones”
As a queer person, this quote from Luca really hit me. I began to tear up the moment it was said. I connected to so many parts of this film, and this was one of the most emotional. This quote and film, I will be taking with me my entire life.
Grazie Luca.
This scene made me cry so hard because its something ive heard alot growing up. The homophobic narrative that lgbt+ people are disgusting and they're monsters is something that alot of people have probably grown up hearing and still hear it today.
Seeing this scene and then seeing that someone stood up for them and not just one person but everyone, it left me feeling like this was going to make people realize how dumb they sounded when they spread hate about lgbt+ people. I felt like I was seen and I know others felt that way too.

As a neurodivergent myself, this is accurate. Not understanding that someone doesnt like you, even though to neurotypicals it's obvious is such a struggle.
Also, another reason! When she was stimming and everytime she asked "too much?" I love her so much
One reason you can tell Guilia is obviously neurodivergent is because she really couldn't tell Alberto didn't like her at first
