That was my first thought too! Or at least has zombie blood in her _somewhere._ And if that wasn't it, why _does_ she have white hair that you can't dye, is that ever explained? (I would also ask why it would be such a problem in the first place, but considering the Stepford image this town tries so hard to maintain, I guess it's a case of "Anything remotely different is BAD and SHAMEFUL" and that's why her parents pressure her to wear a wig.)

All of this is presumably intentional. Disney is trying to simultaneously appeal to garden-variety liberals with feel-good surface-level progressive themes, and appeal to garden-variety conservatives by not going so far as to suggest anything needs to _change._ Having secondary characters be POC satisfies the former, having the white characters put the most active of those characters in her place satisfies the latter.

Justme first off, I don’t know why you sound pissed just because I said something that is opposite to your opinion Second, I don’t understand how you say Eliza “minority” I didn’t mean to say since she’s woman with color, you just gotta accept it Like, no I don’t see characters like that I just see people only with their behaviors, their actions are more important to me I don’t care character’s gender or race I don’t understand why people suddenly see the whole film this way I simply said the movie was trying to send a message, “when you make a change, you shouldn’t approach it with violence” Also the example for Zootopia here is not so great Sure, I love Zootopia and I know they did better job, but the thing is, the main targeted audience is really different. Zootopia is made from Disney animation “film” studio which has more potential for larger audience to go and see it since Disney company itself is mostly famous for Disney animation studio, not Disney channel Zootopia is not a “kids movie” It’s a film for “family” Kids AND adults, but the message itself is mainly for adults So it’s slightly more targeted to adults Kids and family films are different btw That’s why I said this film is for kids/family, but for Disney channel films, it always has been more slightly targeted to kids even if the adults watch it too Because this is only gonna air on TV not the movie theater So I guess..they make “less” effort but Disney also know adults are gonna watch it too so they keep putting these kinds of messages to keep the adult audiences (also because usually people who see Disney channel directly comes from growing up watching Disney animation films) But the message itself was always not meant for adults to “analyze” it Since they also want new kid audiences too It’s part of business

Diva: thank you for your comments for Sin #10, where you point out that protesting injustice is okay if you don't upset anybody and just remain a quiet model minority until enough privileged people take pity on you. Thank you for that! Earlier this year, I caught a few minutes of The 700 Club where a preacher was essentially praying this: "Lord, about the victims of racial prejudice, please don't let them become bitter..." Now I admit that I didn't hear the whole prayer. What I heard, however, was a so-called minister of the gospel missing out on praying that his assumedly majority-White audience would give up being so racist, and instead prayed that People of Color wouldn't get so angry and bitter about the racism they're being subjected to--which certainly lets his majority-White viewership off the hook. I call that a missed opportunity. Decades ago, on this same show, the host said that liberals got it wrong in the way they fought for civil rights back in the 1960s, that they should have waited for people's hearts to change so they would be ready for those changes. By that same logic, we Americans back in 1776 should have waited until the British's hearts had changed and they readily granted us independence. You're right: a show like this mollycoddles people of privilege into thinking that things are okay and that minorities have to make themselves acceptable enough for privileged people to embrace.

Really, doing a segregation allegory with Zombies is actually pretty tasteless, since Zombies stem originally from Voodoo folklore, where they represent the horrors of mindless slavery even after death. It was Hollywood who made them into flesh-eating monsters, often combined with a good measure of racist imagery. Most definitely nothing you can dissolve with some sloppy sentiment and white makeup on your actors.

[@timothymclean]

I'd argue it works about as well as a racism allegory with orcs (who Tolkien explicitly based on the "least lovely Mongol types". Which is to say, it can be potent when done well, but adds an extra patina of cringe when done poorly. Which is usually, because neither the demographics who usually write mainstream media nor the people watching the bottom line are comfortable with serious critiques of non-cartoonish racism.

I would argue that both cases COULD work zootopia-style, if the zombies and orcs were the oppressors, not the oppressed.

Imma be real with you; I thought Addison's dark secret was that she was a quarter zombie, and that one of her grandparents had been a zombie--which could explain her white hair and overwhemingly controlling parents. After all, if one if them managed to escape the zombie ghetto, it's now a family secret. My thought kinda went like: Bucky and Addison have the same grandmother, but Bucky's family line is fully human, whereas Addison's family line stems from the grandmother being impregnated by a zombie....the same zombie who bit off her grandfather's ear. It's a little wrought out and silly for a Disney movie, but I thought it would've been cool, especially considering how much their Grandfather's Accident was mentioned in the film.

If it's a fact that these people *will* snap and eat you if unchecked, that's like saying it's a face that [insert minority here] ARE inherently dangerous and pose a real threat to your livelihood if unchecked. idk. I just feel like it's a fine line to tread on the sympathy-for-the-monster allegory, because it implies that there *is* a monster, at least when it's not hammered home that it's the societal FEAR of them/their culture that has more of an impact on their actions and upbringing than an actual murderous imperative.

Sin #1: I’m still surprised as to just how lazy and unoriginal this story is. Sin #2: Doesn’t everyone wish they were watching “West Side Story” instead of this? Sin #3: Especially since the actress playing Addison in particular sounds so bored and disinterested about what she seems to think as something that could RUIN HER LIFE!!!! Sin #4: You know in the original Haitian mythology, Zombis were created by bokors (think Doctor Facilier) to serve as slaves. And that’s almost always how racial oppression starts. The ruling class makes up myths and lies to dehumanise the people they want to exploit for power and resources. It’s rarely just about actual ignorance or fear caused by cultures not understanding each other. Sin #5: Can you imagine how much weaker “Hunchback of Notre Dame” would have been if instead of persecuting the Romani (an actual real-world people historically oppressed in Europe), Frollo was going after Elves or Fairies or Witches. Sin #6: That would require a deeper understanding of prejudice other than “People are scared of what they don’t understand”. Sin #7: That looks like a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment. Sin #8: Gotta love how little they thought out this premise beyond the bare minimum of effort. Sin #9: Hot Take! If the majority of this film’s cast died from a superflu, it would probably be a much, much better movie. Sin #10: To be fair to the writers, this is the tamest racial-supremacist dystopia ever. The worse they do is Very Generic Cartoon Segregation and they seem willing to stop being prejudiced when the Zombies do what they want.

I could live with the terrible execution of their allegory but the thing is, Disney gave a reason to fear their poc-standins. Fearing Zombies is rather reasonable because they do EAT PEOPLE when uncontrolled. There was never any reason to hate people of colour. There wasn't an explanation as to why black people were hated so much (other than their skin colour, which I don't consider here because stupid). Black people aren't and weren't dangerous or to be feared at all. Maybe it's just me taking everything too literal but making Zombies well, zombies is taking away from the actual issue. Because again Zombies eat people so there's a reason why this system was created. There is a reason why they live in Zombietown. There is a reason they have curfues (spotting a zombie who's Z-Band broke is probably much easier at daytime and failing to do so would be hazardess). So is visually marking them through clothes. So that if something goes wrong their prey has a better chance of survival. All of that cannot be applied to people of colour.

Because if the zombies look "black," viewers will assume that they are supposed to represent black people.

It’s based on true events, although the white girl is actually a composite of two separate people the real family hosted. It even includes the word “kaffir”, which is pretty daring for a kids’ TV movie. This movie, OTOH, blows all its nuance in its attempts at being uplifting. (Also, did you miss Wreck-It Ralph?
