I believe Escape from Wonderland: Disney and the Female
Imagination was a bit on the too long and “yeah we get” side, but now that that
is out of the way I think she brought up some key issues. Disney insist my
favorite, nor do I really even like, well nothing Disney actually. Disney has
key components in their script like; damsel in distress, Masculine hero, LOTS
of innuendo , and two small characters who are good friends and add humor to
the script. The points she brings up are the first two, and while they are
romanticizing Damsel saved by a hunk, do you think People, Realistically want
to see something else? If they had a movie with swapped roles I think that
would be great, maybe a lonely guy meets his damsel who shows him how to be a
man, they could probably pull it off. What they wouldn’t pull off is a story of
an independent woman making it in this world, sorry Deborah not even my
grandmother would watch that nowhere movie. Her strengths on this paper include
key observations in Disney Movies aimed at kids, but like I said earlier: It
comes to the point of “yeah we get it”.
'Twilight'
vs. 'Hunger Games': Why Do So Many Grown-Ups Hate Bella? On the other hand has
a much more interesting point on how women are portrayed in cinema photography,
Bella being pretty much a nobody with no unique characteristics and little
personality to speak of being the goal of two monsters, while the Katniss a
‘Tomboy’ who has a sharp personality and many defining characteristics
,flourish in the eyes of critics. She talks of this Tomboy characteristic being
of choosing because people love men more I guess, but I’m sure it’s because
she’s not boring and helpless like Bella that people like her, Unless Boring is
a quality you’re into. Overall I think the strengths of the subject is
interesting because I haven’t seen either movie (I still do not plan on
watching either), however I think her rant gets murky and unclear towards the
end.
In
my concluding thought, these movies are made because the people who make
them know the'll get money off them. They could care less about equal rights,
as long as it doesn't offended the target audience. I hate to break
it to ya'll; but until they restrict free speech, that's how it is.
