It's like all those lyrics RD> people mishear in popular songs. I still think it's funny RD> that people look for all this hiddenstuff in Disney RD> material, but don't seem to care about the garbage they RD> watch that isn't "subliminal"! A friend of mine once RD> defined the height of hypocrisy as "complaining about the RD> sex and viloence on your VCR." :-) Actually you are wrong, The Lion King SEX is not a heard but rather SEEN, you can read SEX in the following scene... When adult Simba reaches the top of the cliff and lets himself fall onto the ground he scatters some leaves and dust (this is the scene before the monkey realizes that Simba is alive, BECAUSE of the leaves & the dust) Anyways as he is falling the leaves & Dust form a "dust" cloud in front of him, the dust cloud forms the word SEX very clearly and then dissolves... As for Sublimininal messages, well Ive found (in studies in broadcasting) that subliminal messages are very Manipulative to the viewer, because the viewer has no idea where the thoughts are coming from, and when you are watching a Disney movie, it SHOULD be very weird to think about sexual thoughts...Now in R rated movies, for example the movie CRASH, there is alot of sexual content and it is very VISUAL. People are expecting to think sexual thoughts and therefore, everything flows properly (if you pardon the expression) Its just a matter of taste, and I personnaly do not agree with the use of subliminal messages, and DEFFINITLY think that Disney with all its KID power should be more carefull about it... I mean if Disney wants to teach sexual education, the least they could do is warn the parents, and that is the right of the parents... Im actually surprised no-one has taken them to court yet, it would be a very intersting case.... Bill ...

By any chance do you work for the Chinese government, you know the government who says that the Tianeman (probably not spelled correctly) square thing Never happened because they said it never happened, EVEN if the rest of the world SAW it ????

Where he's supposed to be telling her to "take off your clothes". He is, in fact, telling the guards, "Take off. You're close." I have looked for the Lion King one as well. i guess I'm not warped enough to notice it. :-) Robby --- Maximus 3.01 * Origin: Red Shift BBS ... Snellville, Ga. ...

Oh, I might complain about them from time to time but I realize they can't be perfect even if I wanted them to. I remember a scene in DuckTales: The Movie where one of Donald's nephews wishes for peace and happiness all over the world. The genie duck said it best: "These are wishes, NOT MIRACLES!" To have peace and happiness we have to accept the notion that some things may never change at all and some things can't last forever but some things do. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ --- OLX 2.2 TD Look out for that tree! * Origin: The GIFfer BBS, 75+gig, (813)969-2761 (1:377/50) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 149 DISNEY Ref: DGF00014 Date: 12/10/96 From: STEVEN ACEVEDO Time: 04:44am \/To: ALL (Read 1 times) Subj: Haunted Mansion page Check out my little salute to The Haunted Mansion if you have access to The World Wide Web. http://www.angelfire.com/fl/freebird1/haunted.html --- OLX 2.2 TD Florida Winter: 3 consecutive days of 70 degree weather. * Origin: The GIFfer BBS, 75+gig, (813)969-2761 (1:377/50)
