5 CONTROVERSIAL THINGS YOU WON'T SEE ON DISNEY+ 

That is a great way to handle this.

Disney way of handling it: quick hide the shit so we don’t lose any money

Good point

Agreed

I heard him say that. I was like, 'korey, you kidding me?!'😮

Preach

It's such an oxymoron of speech that I couldn't help but laugh my ass off hearing that.

Like “Springtime for Hitler”!

Quality.

And it's not just in Disney history - it's in OUR history. It's part of our culture, whether we want to admit it or not.

@That One I agree. Otherwise, children won't understand how we got to where we are. But Disney should provide documentaries of how it has changed and why.

Couldn’t have put it better myself.

I'd love to see that, but it'd have to be in the same framework that Germany uses for the Holocaust. It would need to unquestionably send the message, "This is wrong and it can never happen again." Because there are still too many racists today who'd watch it just so they could laugh at black people & minorities.

@That One Thats dumb. Children shoudnt be watching anything all by themselves in the first place. Stop censoring past because you're butthurt now.

Exactly. That speech by Whoopi Goldberg was amazing

I especially love the part where they say that the shorts are kept the way they were because getting rid of those parts "would be like stating those prejudices never existed". That is the most mature and fair argument on keeping the ugly side of history. It's cruel, but you can't get rid of it just like that.

"Bitch, who cares! Vote for me in 2024!" -Bob Iger

@That One Watch TV with your kids, then discuss is shown. No matter what, kids are going to see disturbing things. Be there to educate them and answer their questions.

@@DaddyOfTheSugarVariety There is a time and place for that. Most parents are not going to be prepared on the spot for these discussions and families that already experience racism are likely having these conversations without having to be subjected to literal racist propaganda. This stuff is fine to keep available for teaching lessons about the past but it shouldn't be commercialized nowadays.

@@faithfm1 It seems like a good idea not to have those original versions out for general commercial consumption, so ok, edited out messed up parts, but then there could be a "historical" version or something for people who want to see what was up. I mean, you can rent Birth of a Nation anytime you want, but nobody in their right mind would get it for eentertainment, so I think stuff like that is in a different category.

​@@faithfm1wrong

Just about to say that

Yep

You know it's stuff like that that makes me glad Atlanta is now a majority black city.

@@MMoturi22 What...what does that have to do with anything ?

@@masterDarts4188 Just knowing that they had whites only theatres and fucked over Uncle Remus like that. I'd like to see some peoples reaction from the time to how Atlanta turned out demographic wise

@@MMoturi22 I don't think most people would care that much now a days.

@@paintedjaguar I heard about her. Wasn't she the one who helped him with the Alice in Wonderland movie ?

That was the partly the producers doing, they were ashamed of it as they believe that MJ used it to lure or groom his victims. Unlike the Mel episode as it just pokes fun at Gibson himself, know-it-all fans & the Hollywood process

@@i.m.evilhomer5084 the producers had their opinion about Michael Jackson but Mel Gibson actually said the jews were responsible for the wars in this world

@@jasonhearn5818 Don't get me wrong, he's still an asshole though.

I dunno. I find paedophiles way harder to stomach than antisemites.

@Coco Limes There’s no proof MJ did anything though

Percy66 c lol right

Martin's laugh always brightens my day.

He is a gift to this cold and dark world

Its infectious.

Erasure of history

Michael Strong I own a bootleg copy of it on dvd so I’m good. It’s really not that great of a film. Only the animation parts are decent.

who fucking cares?

@@MrConredsX lol "Erasure of history" fuck outta here. You don't care the history. You yearn for the "good old days".

Because song of the south isn't very good and they don't care enough to protect or preserve it

That's alil lame

That's a shame because it's probably one of their best and most memorable episodes. I don't even understand the logic of pulling it as he is uncredited and receives no royalties for his appearance.

It will also be omitted in future DVD or Blu-ray releases.

Yea that part was messed up

A point people make about the film is that you can't actually tell whether it's Reconstruction or during/before the Civil War. Because the movie takes place in a fantasyland where slavery (or the horrible aftermath of slavery, in the case of the Reconstruction) was all about being one big happy family and teaching white kids pithy life lessons.

@@JoelBurger Better point.

@@EnshohmaEnshohma honestly from what I've heard about it from people that actually watched the movie. It's pretty bland, it has good songs, but it's really rather bland. basically the story is a kid befriends former slave uncle Remus, Remus tells him briar rabbit stories about rabbit outsmarting a bear and a fox, which the kid applies to some bullies, and then when the mother character gets all defensive, the kid seeks out Remus, and gets hurt because he ran into a bull's enclosure, the kid calls out for Remus, Remus comes, and the kid gets better, and everyone agrees to be nice to each other again. I mean it does have it issues the portrayal of the times basically shows black people living in shantytowns working for the white plantation people as servents( even the kids too) and they all speak In "slave talk" dialect(except the white people). Slavery is also kinda treated like it was a minor inconvenience and really glossed over or ignored like racism just ended after the civil war. what I'm saying is its racist, like really racist, but not because the story is racist, but because 90% of the characters in the movie are racist stereotypes. I mean you can get the movie easily if you really want to watch it, but it's probably not worth the effort really.

Reminds me of The sheriff is a ni- *BONG* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sAELs42aZt4.html

I’m Native American and even as a kid it felt weird looking at the natives in that film.

It’s more than just an allegation, but even then if people all over still listen to Michael Jackson’s music, there’s no reason why a cartoon about him shouldn’t exist.

@@wjsproductions1784 Michael Jackson was never convicted, therefore any claims of wrongdoing remain allegations and nothing more. When you look into the substance of the evidence brought to trial, as well, you find a lot of holes in the prosecution's case.

@@wjsproductions1784fbi searched his home and looked at his dick , they were just allegations

Corey is an animator himself, so I'm pretty sure he's aware.

wow someone actually did their research

Interesting good to know...

I understand where your coming from COMPLETELY. Was like that most of my life as a kid to actually about I think until middle school or early high school we're the existence of the human concept of racism and stereotypessomeone taught it to me. Probably late middle school.

So, you don't think the cartoon that accompanied it, was racist either? I mean, I saw that cartoon as a child (they were still showing it on the Disney channel quite frequently when I was growing up) and without understanding the context of what was going on, I was still completely horrified by the sight of Brer Rabbit beating the shit out of the "tar baby" (a term I had never heard in my life, and had no clue what it meant) all because he didn't acknowledge him, when he said hello. I was so utterly confused as to how Brer Bear & Brer Fox, knew this whole scheme of theirs was going to work, because I couldn't wrap my head around anyone (even if they were a cartoon) pummeling someone to death, because they didn't answer you. When I got older and found out what it all meant, my first thought was, jesus christ, that was insanely racist! I mean seriously, everyone focuses on the Uncle Remus character, but jesus, that cartoon is a mess too!

@@KittyGoldPaint no I don't think the cartoon was racist either, granted I haven't seen the film for a couple years cus it's not really a film I have on a favorites list but really you're horrified by cartoon characters beating up each other. Have you ever seen a Tom & Jerry or Looney Tunes episode? Unless you're Don Bluth and show cartoon characters bleeding most often we draw cartoons because we can beat them up and they don't actually get hurt, it's just slap stick. Would you consider Pepe le pew a racist depiction of French people (hear me out)? Essentially Warner Bros was saying french people are just rapists with funny accents. I argue that Pepe le pew isn't a racist depiction of french people, he's only one of the many archetypes we use of snobbish french culture. The Brer animals in Song of the South are archetypes of some of the lives in the south. I'm pretty sure if you lived in Louisiana or any other former confederate states you are going to find someone that talks in that accent similar to the Brer animals. Same with many cartoon characters: Speedy Gonzalez is just an archetype of a quick witted Mexican, Popeye is just an archetype of a stubborn Polish-American fisherman that cares about nothing but the sea (and his lady), Foghorn is just an archetype of a farmer. Are you honestly going to say that every cartoon character is racist only because they were created based on archetypes of real cultures. Mexicans love Speedy Gonzalez (look into the history that Mexican-Americans forced Warner Bros. to keep Speedy on the show when they planned to cancel the character), Popeye is an icon for all children to eat their greens even tho he talks funny like a stereotypical fisherman, so why is it that when Disney once made a movie where they the toons are based on an archetype of people in the boonies, in former confederate states, living in post civil war America, there is this double standard? I never saw the Brer animals as being solely depictions of black people (sure their voiced by black people but Mel Blanc voiced Speedy Gonzalez and last I checked Mel wasn't Mexican) but I could easily imagine a white person being a little prankster like Brer Rabbit, or sly like Brer Fox, or slow like Brer Bear, I would say those characters are more like Tom Sawyer and his pals (whites boys living in the south but were not racist) sorry for the paragraph response

Honestly it really does depend on your perspective. From what I hear, because I haven't seen the film, the actual movie itself is just bland and not that interesting. The movie glosses over a difficult subject, but honestly, what else were they supposed to do ? It's a kids movie....

@@masterDarts4188 ya it's bland, like I said in a previous reply it's not on any of my favorite lists but honestly if you want your kids to have a concept of 1800's America (without giving them trauma) then it's a good movie for that. I mean if you watch any Huckleberry Finn movie they gloss over the horrors of slavery, sure in the 93' version we see whip marks (no blood just marks) on black people's back. So I don't understand this argument that Corey is talking about that kids' movies taking place in civil war America must traumatize the kids. That's like saying whenever there's a kids' movie taking place in Medieval ages they HAVE to always show the black plague and how people die from it

I believe it has racist undertones for sure.

Yeah that might offend legal taxpaying members of the church of Satanism 🤔

You may think nothing was wrong as a kid but alot of things are subconsciously ingrained in you

Same with my grandfather but with Mitsubishi. He would never buy or ride in one.

Launchpad's Civil War and what is the other one?

@@RiggsBF Sphinx for the Memories

I hated that D+ wasn't a single add-on for Hulu.

Hugo Boss

I am going to assume that you're talking about Wolrd War 2. Chances of Ralph Lauren designing WW 2 German uniform is impossible seeing that he would've been 6 years old when the war ended. As for Calvin Kline, he would've been 2 years old when the war ended.

@@scudz323 it was hugo boss

It does take place in Reconstruction South, but its racial politics are still iffy (that being said, I do think it should be available).

esimonsays14 ahh ok yeah I knew it was post civil war which is why I thought it is weird when people say this movie says slavery was cool or whatever ..I have not seen the movie, but thanks for the info

@@gideonp9762 how is it weird

No u don’t. Stop trying to profit off the government and white ppl and then maybe we blacks might be taken seriously

I'm sorry. Could you walk me through that reasoning ? How exactly did you get to reparations from this ?

But do they sing the song ?

No looks like the writers made a new song for them 😂
