The whole "The turkey legs are emu" thing isn't even a good urban legend because it doesn't make sense from ANY angle. Emu is MORE expensive than turkey, and from what I've heard is a richer meat. Like steak with the texture of chicken. So Disney would be taking a rarer and more expensive bird meat and be DOWNselling it as turkey. They'd probably be losing money with each emu leg compared to if they advertised "Adventure Land Real Genuine Emu Legs". Like, economically, that urban legend makes no sense! C'mon, Conspiracy Theorists, say that they're giant lab-grown pigeons!

As much as the "30 dollar princess wands" thing sounds like Randy having a huge chip on his shoulder over a small incident that annoyed him one time, it's also the only one of his anecdotes that approaches an actual criticism of Disneyland.

This would have worked well with the underplayed "Jim hiding the fact that he lost his job so that his family can enjoy themselves" plot point. Have the kids constantly asking for toys and rides that cost extra and Jim, in spite of knowing that he can't afford to waste any money now that he has no income, keeps paying to keep up the illusion. And at the end Jim is broke and it's like, is that on him, or is it on the company that tried to commodify innocence in the first place?

[@snakeygirl4296]

Like, the cheating could be forgiven. The child neglect, stalking of underage girls, and attempted sexual assault on his wife aren’t forgivable. The “protagonist” is the embodiment of a creepy perv preying on young girls. My dad cheated on my mom when I was a kid. Upon learning about this as an adult I was immensely disappointed in my father but I still love him. It’s not a good thing to do and it broke my mom’s heart (she deserves better) but my dad has grown as a person in the decade after the divorce. He admits his actions weren’t acceptable but that he was having trouble understanding why he didn’t feel the same way about my mom as when the marriage began. Cheating, though mean, isn’t enough for me to declare someone is irredeemably evil. You know why I can still love my dad? BECAUSE HE DIDN’T STALK UNDERAGE GIRLS, SEXUALLY ASSAULT MY MOM, AND ABANDON ME IN A THEME PARK SO HE COULD GET LAID! That shit is genuinely unforgivable. Dude is supposed to be a sympathetic character yet represents literally almost every red flag a dude can have. The infidelity is just the tip of the iceberg!

[@snakeygirl4296]

Ps. My dad is a genuinely great dad. When i went to disneyland with him as a kid he even got on some of the rides with me even though he’s terrified of roller coasters. He went out of his way to ensure my lil brother and I had loads of wholesome fun and didn’t start any arguments with my mom (this was after the divorce and he still wanted majority custody) since he didn’t want to worry my brother and I. I only ever went to disneyland once but it was enough for me. The good memories with my family are irreplaceable.

He's doing horrible things but it's for (kind of) a good cause. Being a shitty dad who leers at underaged girls is not an anti-hero. There's nothing troubling heroic about that. He's just a horrible human being.

I've been thinking about this video a lot lately, and I think that the part of the Randy Moore's comments that I find most offensive is his view on the Disney Princesses. He finds the disney princesses to be aesthetically beautiful and therefore interprets them as innately being objects of male fantasy. Never once does he entertain the notion that they Disney Princesses are created for the young female gaze. While I acknowledge that several of the non-white princesses are subject to orientalism, and that the princesses are created by men, the princesses are one portrayal of women not designed to appeal primarily to men. The fact that Moore designs his princesses as prostitutes is just another example of male entitlement in a feminine space.

Love the casual ableism/stigma against mental illness of comparing being grumpy about rowdy kids in a crowded park to working on a psych floor. I work in mental health and did a year long internship on a behavioral health unit (“psych floor”) in a hospital and they aren’t??? Like that??? Like yes sometimes people get escalated on the unit but it isnt 24/7 chaos and screaming. And the people on the unit are literally just people at a really rough point with their mental health who need compassion and support accessing resources/learning skills. A lot of them are coming in with a lot of trauma and really difficult life situations. Most are really lovely to interact with, and the ones who aren’t? They’re suffering a LOT more than anyone who is being PAID to work there and gets to fucking go home at the end of their shift and pick their own food to eat and wear shoes with actual fucking laces on them.

Ryan Hollinger covering this brought me back to this video again. I got curious and was googling Randy Moore and stumbled across a Reddit post from 9 years ago that he made to answer 'fan' questions. He also included one of the actresses that played one of the French teenagers, BUT he refers to her as "one of the little sexy French girls." She looked about 14-15 in the movie; she MAY be older, but it was weird to refer to a minor teenage character as sexy. I forgot how much of the ick Randy gave me.

[@mackenziebennett6949]

Honestly, if you really wanted a Disney-themed movie with the thesis 'You can't always be happy' that includes a slow psychological breakdown of the main character, here's an idea: make the main character a cast member for Disney. People who go to the parks on vacation obviously know that you can't always be happy. They're just there on vacation to have fun for a bit. The cast members who are part of the show and are actually working do kind of have to act happy 24/7, even if they're having a hard time. I have multiple friends who have worked for both American parks and they've all told me that there can be this toxic positivity in the workplace and that the pressure to always be in performance mode while dealing with real-life problems, mental illness, unpleasant guests, and general bad days can really get to you if you aren't careful. Make the story about a cast member at the parks who is currently dealing with lots of problems (relationships, stress, depression, anxiety, etc.), but can't really express those feelings at all due to the amount of hours they need to work to keep their head above water. Whenever they seem off or sad or stressed at work, have their coworkers and supervisors pressure them into just powering through it with toxic false positivity because they work at the happiest place on Earth and they have to act like it. Have their mental state deteriorate over time, maybe even adding in some stress-related hallucinations (minus the sexual stuff). Have them be permanently stuck in 'performance mode' so they literally can't express their emotions in a healthy way anymore and are stuck as a Stepford smiler. You could still have some commentary on Disney and the theme park corporate industry in general and how it treats its workers as well as how the public can treat service industry workers. It would be a lot more organized, realistic, and meaningful. also protip: don't make the main character a literal pedophile.

I think our culture wants us to view beauty as inherently sexual.

It's what makes us buy beauty products, clothes, diet books, and all those other things that will make us beautiful and thus valuable to other human beings.
