Grounded is produced by 7NEWS Australia, and features the voices of young and diverse journalists working across the Australian network. From the regions, to the cities.
The guy who uses his platform to divide people. How about this, don’t give advice if you barely passed high school. And has Steph successfully removed those poor people from around his house yet? I wouldn’t want him or his family to have to see that. Both of these clowns don’t represent anything about the USA
Yeah, I am sure you dribbling a basketball will really excite everybody to come together. I know my entire family doesn’t have a good day until we find out how celebrities and athletes are doing.
The story took place centuries ago, in a time where there wasn't much, if any acceptance of people like Quasimodo. I respect your opinion, but it's a beautiful work of fiction about tragically deformed character. Even in the times when the book was written, it was extremely positive on Quasimodo and Esmeralda. The negative side is more so the circumstances and things they have to go through. No way should the work of fiction be seen as negative, especially if it's hardly even critical of disabled people.
I'm positive that I'm not the only person out there who was floored and scarred as a kid when the public humiliation scene took place. But what really threw me off was why was that turn table on the stage? Was that whole disgusting display part of the tradition for the king of fools? That bastard that first broke out a lasso said "The fun's just beginning" which means two things. One: he's a sick son of a bitch (which we already knew based on how excited he was to take part and contribute to this horrifying display) and two: it's entirely possible that this was premeditated because of his choice of words, combined with the turn table being positioned on the stage. However, based on Phoebus' reaction and urgency to do the right thing, combined with Frollo's response, should mean this was never supposed to happen. Either way, I don't know how Disney could keep the scene as faithful to the source material as they did without any concern for how it might last in the minds of so many children.
I don’t like heights so I find watching this highly disturbing;!mainly because of fear of lives being lost- however I fully applaud these individuals not only for their astounding physical agilities but their utilization of the “ human mind”- I still wish they would wear a super lightweight parachute capable of saving their lives without affecting their astonishing balance ability- humans are an incredible evolutionary “ art form”-both mentally and physically-yet highly vulnerable.
@@chloecooper4520 yeah there is, it's rubbish. How could people like it? It's an imitation/combination of the Spice Girls and Back Street Boys thirty years too late...??? Right???
That didn't hit the brief. Not even close. There are a multitude of reasons why "Western" people are listening to K-pop. Yes, many are of Asian decent, but the numbers from other cultural backgrounds are rapidly growing. Not just among the teen and pre-teen demographics, but across all age brackets. I rarely willingly listen to Australian and British artists now, and almost never willingly listen to American artists. Western music really changed direction not long after Y2K (and in my opinion, it was not a good change in direction). Comparatively, the K-pop genre is overall wholesome. Artists are bound by morality clauses in their contracts (you'll not see K-pop artists in the situation that P. Diddy is currently in) that morality is taken seriously. Even an accusation of an artist bullying a classmate in primary school will see them suspended from all activities while that is fully investigated). K-pop music is positive, upbeat, devoid of the swearing and worse which is prevalent in so much Western music now. The genre is ENJOYED across all age groups because it can be. The lyrics are clean and respectful - for the majority. Artists found to have breached the morality clauses in their contracts are sacked from their management company and not picked up by any other. Their career is over. Why this reporter(?) was tasked with a story on shooting he had an obvious contempt for, I can not fathom. He really didn't understand the assignment... or actually cover the topic.
Perhaps k-pop is cleaner music but Do you not know the stories of disgraced former make K-pop artists who were involved it miss treatment of women, drugs and sex trafficking?
@@bodybeats that one thing a about a decade or more ago with one guy who owned a night club. I've heard about that. It was the reason the morality clauses were put into all artist contracts. Now, compare that one story to the thousands in just the last 25 years of Western music. Or the tens of thousands since the 1950s. Don't forget to include the handful of male American artists who married 12 and 14 year old girls. Don't forget Michael Jackson - a serial ped-a-file. Don't forget Bobby Brown, the wife bea ter. Don't forget P Diddy and R Kelly... and on, and on, and on. Comparatively, K-pop artists still come out on top.
@@bellarose-au yeah 100% agree with what your saying about western music allot of messed up cases and only the ones we know of! But I’m sure there is exploitation and shady stuff going in the music Industry (as would be film industry) all over the world including Korea! It’s just all covered up and made to look pretty and fun!, until it’s exposed. However people generally don’t speak out because they are just climbing the ladder and afraid of not succeeding or out of fear because of what they blackmail them with. Hopefully this current case makes a change in the Industry, weeds out the bad guys and encourages more to speak out!
@@bodybeats A dead fly in a bowl of porridge. You might say. He was a former member of BigBang. The whole country resented his horrendous crime. He was released after 18 months behind bars. His career is entirely over, at least here in South Korea. He seems to be staying in one of the South East Asian countries, bluffing about the good old days. Good deserve.
Well of course. They’re gaining more western followers but the main followers will always be the Asians and asian descent. It’s kinda sense of belonging towards the culture. Just like food, Indian food is popular, but who eat the most, still the Indian people or Indian decent.
Top guy, very honest and open lad, a good role model for young blokes out of control, wish you well mateo for the future.🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊. Not only in boxing, but in general life.😊
Ok, I’m not disabled, so I try not to talk over people, but this feels like a surface-level view of the movie’s plot. Now, the source material is a different matter entirely - it’s racist, it’s ableist, and it’s depressing. But I think the movie tries to challenge those things. The whole point is that Quasi was made (by a racist religious zealot) to believe he was unlovable because he wasn’t like everyone else. But we find out by the end how untrue that was. There are so many themes to examine - the ableism, the racism, the religious extremism - and the film actually challenges rather than condones them. Sure, there are parts of the 90s film that didn’t age well and should be corrected if they choose to remake it; but I think it’s a mistake to write it off entirely.
Charles Martinet was in the video. That's a true legend right there, with so many stories to be told for years to come. I solute you, Charles Martinet. Thank you so much, Charles Martinet, for being a part of my childhood memories.
