Recently, I came across this advertisement for an animated film, yet to be released. Needless to say, the advert caught my attention for ... obvious reasons(?)
So yes... the inclusion of non-traditional families was a refreshing thing, and just playfully mentioned. The movie isn't taking a fierce stance on social engineering; I very much doubt that it's about homosexual/alternative family parenting. Even if such a relationship may be present, it's not the focus of the story.
Still, I see the mere mention of family variants as a positive thing. A lot of people don't realize that often, polite social repression merely requires that the majority minimize or ignore the lives of people whose lifestyle they don't agree with. It's just another form of cruelty and oppression. So here, it was nice to see such inclusion.
But the YouTube comments amazed me even more than the trailer...
See for yourself below. Could it be that people are finally starting to reject the bigotry and hatred of a generation past?

Likely.
Good.
Y'know - some people only want to see the world as a broken, miserable place.
But they are wrong. We can do better.
Increasingly, intolerance is being focused on the one group that actually deserves it -- - the intolerant.
'Trolls' are generally spiteful people.
Boxtrolls? Seem like pretty nice neighbors, if you ask me.
