How is disney satanic

He didn't believe the story until he listened to the duck's dialogue in the short. Wildmon claims Donald says, "Fuck you" to the clock when it comes to life and begins to taunt him. Wildmon calls this discovery "the latest in a growing list of anti-family incidents by the company that has long been a stalwart of family entertainment.

Does anybody really care now except people out to get Disney? The anti-Disney literature has uncovered a few interesting facts about the animated films, but mixed in with these amusing little stories is the real reason for the boycott -- homophobia.

The Christian right is upset that Disney established a company policy extending insurance benefits to the live-in partners of homosexual employees, but not to unmarried partners of heterosexual employees.

Disney also allows "homosexual celebrations" in the theme parks which means they allow gay groups to exercise their civil rights to organize and hold events just as they allow other social, religious and civic groups to hold organized events. To ban homosexuals from the park is against the law. An acquaintance that works in the public relations department at Disney says, "People lay in wait for us.

The AFA has built a strong organization and their followers apparently are quite active doing what is asked of them, writing letters of complaint to TV advertisers. They have threatened boycotts of sponsors that advertise on TV shows they find objectionable. The shows are reviewed in the AFA Journal and the names and addresses of sponsors are on the pages that feature the reviews.

The AFA has won some of their battles and lost others according to carefully researched articles. The articles also report the membership gives generously. In the s the AFA began an on-going Disney boycott. A recent article from them begins with, "Profits from family entertainment products and theme parks are subsidizing Disney's promotion of the homosexual agenda.

A boycott -- including even their good products -- is the only way to impact the company. While the AFA milks almost every naughty story they can find about the company, the Southern Baptists Convention in New Orleans expressed their displeasure of the Disney stance on gay rights by simply voting to boycott the company in In the Florida Southern Baptist Convention voted in favor of a similar boycott. Toy Story was the object of a boycott hoax and false allegations of sexual and drug references.

In February a student of mine said that there was an organized boycott of Toy Story by the AFA because Woody, the name of one of the film's stars, is a slang term for the penis, and Buzz, the name of the co-star, was a drug term.

The story came from a local weekly newspaper. Although the student believed that there was a real boycott of Toy Story , a quick call to Pixar revealed the story was a hoax and that somebody had started it with a letter published on the Internet.

Pixar sent me a copy of the letter along with a memo from the American Family Association that denied they wrote the letter or that they had ever called for a boycott of the film. A few months later the AFA Journal praised the film as it "brought a broad audience of moral Americans back to local theaters.

It called the first computer animated feature "obscene pornography disguised as 'family entertainment' Millions of people now believe Disney was an FBI spy, etc. The fabrications in it will probably be passed on for many generations, just as many people have insisted for the last 35 years that Disney's body was frozen at the time of his death. If you believe it was frozen and will be brought back to life someday, you will be happy to know that Elvis was seen on February 30, in the Haunted House at Disneyland.

Eliot's end-notes on the sources of his information are detailed at times, but he doesn't reveal how he discovered some of his most important "facts. Diane Disney Miller, Walt's daughter, says, "There are more than glaring factual errors. I've also asked dozens of former Disney employees if any of Eliot's claims that Disney was sexist, racist, Fascist, anti-Semitic, heavy drinker, etc.

Some think some of the rumors might be true, but nobody ever saw him expressing negative feelings toward any race, religion or creed. The worst things I found out is that he swore from time to time and was addicted to tobacco. If he had a bias against a group of people he was smart enough not to express those opinions in public. I know a woman Eliot consulted when he began his research. She says she told him that there was a lot of dirt on Disney somewhere, but she didn't know what most of it was.

She also could not confirm that any of it was true, but she was sure that if he searched hard enough he would find a wealth of information. I believe he didn't find much, but since he had invested a lot of time in the project and wanted to write a best seller exposing Disney's past, he invented it.

As for the woman, she was motivated to tell him what little she knew because she hated Disney. She had never met or worked for him. Her hatred was based on her late husband's feelings about the studio. He had been laid off after going on strike in Disney held a grudge against most or all of the strikers and she never forgave Walt for what he did. It didn't matter that she didn't begin going out with the man she married until ten or twelve years after the strike.

Some of the questionable things she told him are presented in the book as true facts. The closest I came to confirming some of Eliot's material was when I interviewed a man who said he had worked on Snow White, Fantasia and other features as an animator.

His yarns were so amazing that I checked with the studio and found out their records showed he had only worked there for about 6 months in the camera department. His biography said he was only at Disney in For Eliot and others who insist Disney became an ultra-conservative after the strike and that he hated Jews -- explain why he hired and worked closely with writer Maurice Rapf from '46?

Disney knew Rapf was Jewish, had a left-wing background and possibly that he had traveled to Russia in the s. I've interviewed Rapf several times while writing Forbidden Animation and when I've asked him about Eliot's claims he could not confirm any of them. The rebranding of Maleficent is perhaps another sign that Americans have grown uncomfortable with their traditional role as idealistic world-savers; after Vietnam, Chile, El Salvador, Iraq and Afghanistan, only the willfully ignorant can ignore the gore on our swords.

Our culture reflects this self-disgust in thousands of ways. And after Maleficent notices her bloodied chest after a battle, Jolie looks at us with one of the most delicate, subtle, mortal expressions cinema has ever seen.

Editorial: A ballot-box budgeting proposal for arts education? Letters to the Editor: Are students served by homework and the old ways of grading? Probably not. As the news hits home, the scene features a full 17 seconds of total silence. The void mirrors the profound sense of loss Bambi is experiencing before our eyes.

It would be a full 52 years before Disney achieved such heightened levels of emotion with the death of Mufasa in The Lion King. A heartbreaking moment. After drinking water spiked with champagne, our hero enters into a drunken fever dream — hallucinating a scene of demented pink elephants marching.

Later, worm-like incarnations slither across the screen in technicolour, before turning into belly dancers and camels in an odd middle Eastern sequence. In an otherwise straight-forward story about a flying elephant — if there is such a thing — the moment where a monstrous creature, made up entirely of demonic elephant heads, charges at the screen in particular feels misjudged.

Disney likes to hide things in its movies. One scene sees them prepare for takeoff on the back of an albatross, soaring past a skyscraper. The studio recalled the home video version of the film in , in which the image appears onscreen for a split-second.
