Not all past history is great but you have to still acknowledge that *it exists* regardless of how modern audiences look back on it now.

What do they think, that everyone who is not European is black?

In that game, a male character let a female character fall cause she was dragging him down. There was a comment that said that it's good he let her fall and didn't help her to not be a simp.

Dinklage's criticism of the dwarves aspect really makes you wonder if he's ever actually even seen the movie.

She showed them love and care and they do all they can to repay it and protect her.

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" is deeply rooted in German folklore, having been popularized by the Brothers Grimm in the 19th century. This story, known in its original German as "Schneewittchen," is a treasure from the rich tapestry of European folk traditions. Stripping it of its origins and heritage would be akin to removing the essence of its cultural context. The characters, settings, and motifs are intrinsically European, reflecting the environment, values, and beliefs of the time and place from which they emerged. To reimagine them outside of this context would not only dilute the story's historical and cultural significance but also fail to honor the authenticity of the narrative that has captivated audiences for centuries.

Yeah, and what I find the craziest is that the "strong female" characters in the movies always, or usually, behave like guys. I've seen and know strong women in real life, and none of them acted like shown in the movies. And really, no never hear them say "I don't need a man for this" or "Men are overrated, I can handle it alone" They are more like "Please, god, give me a boyfriend/husband who doesn't see me as a momma replacement!!!" or "Please, god, give me a guy who acts his age!!!"

That's why I said "not too bad" instead of "Oh jolly ol'chum, your pronunciation of the Kraut language is truly marvelous. Keep it up you whiskey snorting Virtuoso."

I’m almost 30, so I remember VHS tapes on the CRT TV sitting on top of the fridge at daycare at this old ladies house. She was a Disney fanatic. Owned all the tapes and books and plushies and the whole 9 yards. Would go to the Grand Floridian once a year every year for an extended vacation. She would boil us hot dogs for lunch and would play the tapes on the TV (it was on top of the fridge so no one could reach up to touch it lol). I remember the commercials on TV for the “Disney Vault Collection” and they would only release and sell VHS in limited runs at a time, or at least that’s how I remember it, but the Vault was a real thing. All this backstory to say, once absolutely every Disney property has a live action remake, I imagine Disney putting ABSOLUTELY EVERY ANIMATED CLASSIC back into the “Vault”, no longer available for the public to see. That’s my guess. I only saw the first Avengers and the first of the 3 new Star Wars Trilogy, and knew it wasn’t like the stuff I saw as a kid. So I stopped watching anything Disney a while ago. I still read the news and all that, but wow everything fell apart.
