morolf: Disney movies are for children...assuming you're an adult, why do you even care about them?
A lot of adults liked Toy Story. It was a good movie with an excellent script that brought out the child in everyone, even grown-ups.

Unfortunately, now we can't expect movies of that caliber from Dinsey as they have gone full feminist and political correctness mode.


Japanese anime on the other hand like Nausicca: Valley of the wind or any other anime film directed by Hayao Miyazaki are timeless classics and blow away any of the modern garbage Disney is producing.

Yeshu: PS. Speaking of Frozen...
Damn, I hate what Disney did to my username.

I figured "Princess Mononoke" ought to have a mention here.

All the Disney Princesses.

Nothing like a bunch of guys going to see a disney princess movie.

Woah, I didn't know Disney actually released Mononoke, I always figured it was a bit to gory for them to touch it

Maybe I shouldn't write that as someone who's spent far too much of his life on computer games...but the fact that adults watch movies like Toy story or read Harry Potter and the like...umm, perhaps it might be a worrying sign that Western societies have become infantilized to a dangerous degree?
Can't comment on Japanese anime, though I suppose at least some of it has real artistic merit.

If I remember rightly, they have various subsidiaries to help mask their relationship to any given product that wouldn't be appropriate for the main label. Pretty much keeps the common soccer mom off the street from waving a pitchfork at Mr. D's legacy.

I read all the Harry Potter books too. :D
I am kind of tired of people complaining about SJW, PC, and such things.

I used to see quite a lot of adult people on public transport reading Harry Potter books...made me kind of sad that they weren't even a little bit ashamed. They could at least have changed the book covers and pretended to read War and peace or The brothers Karamazov :-)))))))

Hey! You can love things that may have been intended for a younger audience while still loving more serious stuff.

That's a perfect example for the other on-going thread about duality of the Internet. Why can't you love both?
