A Portal movie is getting closer: Backrooms director Kane Parsons visited Valve. All the facts about the possible film adaptation of the science fiction classic.
It was a (half) joke about GLaDOS being attractive to lesbians for specific reasons, and cishet men not really getting it. But also, I don’t care if it’s a “fan theory?” The character is like, a complete blank canvas, so I think it’s kind of silly to say she isn’t queer because it isn’t like, “part of the lore.”
GLaDOS also has pretty specific character traits that are easy to fuck up if you don’t understand why they’re endearing, which is more of the point.
Apologies, wasn’t trying to imply that the fan theory was wrong. I think it’s fun that people flesh out the universe. I just didn’t understand the joke. But now I am curious what it is about GLaDOS that’s so attractive to lesbians lol.
Definitely agree that GLaDOS is a nuanced character that the showrunners need to understand before they hamfist them as a villain.
I’m NGL, if it doesn’t have a queer woman director, I don’t know if they’ll get why it works.
Edit: lol, seriously didn’t expect that to piss you guys off, but then again, a reminder of the demos on Lemmy, whether they say it or not.
Can you elaborate on this? It’s been several years since I’ve played the games, but I thought Chell being gay was a just a fan theory?

Even in the before times I thought she was attractive. I thought it was so cool when I was able to get a screenshot of her face in both games.
