We finished the Disney documentary this week and just let me say, despite all the accusations made in that film, I still love Disney movies and believe overall, they are good for the public and for children.
People look too deep into these films to try and find something wrong. Face it, Americans get bored. And when Americans get bored, they look for something that pisses them off so they can protest it. They make something out of nothing. And that is what this documentary is trying to do.
First, the whole Beauty and the Beast thing where he is abusive. The beast is a wild animal. How the hell are you supposed to depict a wild animal? But you get those people who think it will teach girls that abusive men are ok. It is a wild animal, and it is just a movie. Besides, there are millions of people who watched that film and turned out just fine, so by the process of a simple survey, I just disproved that theory. What a stupid idea. "Oh no, I watched the Beast be abusive, then they fell in love. Guess I have to be with an abusive person now." Utter idiocy.
Next, every single race in the Disney movies is defined by their stereotypes. Sure, it might seem a little insensitive, but remember, for every stereotype there is a hint of truth to it. Also, if everyone acted the same in the movies, how boring would that be? These movies are made to entertain children, not provide moral and ethical guidance for 10-year-olds. But, here we go again, people making mountains out of mole-hills. And children will learn about race, gender and stereotypes when they get in high school. Presenting this knowledge too early to kids could cause the opposite effect desired. It might make them an outcast at school and might effect them psychologically.
Any person getting their moral guidance from a children's movie is what I like to call a "moron." Pretty simple term there.
These are good, clean movies that have no "hidden" meaning. The sooner people realize this, the better off we will all be.
Also, like always, the white male is depicted as the cause of all these problems. Big shock there. Oh no, a problem in the media, must be the white guy's fault. But hey, if they couldn't blame the white man, who could they blame?
Maybe I'll make a documentary over that...haha, no. No chance. I'll just keep on living and laughing at the rediculous dribble coming out of these people's mouths.
