When people watch Disney films, they should really consider all the negative effects the film has on the viewers. Little children and their parents usually view every Disney film. But what most people don’t know are all the messages that the films tell the children. For example, the messages they send to children about how all the princesses are always described as being beautiful. The most powerful independent women are usually the villains. Also the subliminal messages that are in Disney films just because the people who made the film didn’t get paid as much money as they wanted. Most Disney films shouldn’t be shown to children.
Every child wants to be a beautiful Disney princess. Unless they are told, children can get the wrong impression and believe that unless they are beautiful, no prince will want them. In fact, unless a parent tells them many times that they don’t need to look like a Disney princess, children can become depressed if they don’t think they look like their favorite princess. The most powerful women in the films are always the evil villains who die at the end of the movie, for example, in “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” and “Sleeping Beauty”. If you really look at some Disney princesses, or even some villains, they are impossibly proportioned, and even ones, who are not, like Ursula of “The Little Mermaid”, are hyper-sexualized to the point where it becomes disturbing to show your little child.
There are many subliminal messages in Disney films that parents don’t really see the first time they show their child the movie. One example is that in the clouds in “The Lion King” the clouds spell out three letters, S.E.X. They keep it on the screen for a good two minutes of the movie, and a child would be able to pick that up in a minute. Also, a classic movie “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” was created about Snow White, meaning cocaine, and the Seven Dwarfs were really the side effects that cocaine has on a person. Most little children learn the tunes of the songs in the Disney films and after a while even learn almost all of the words. Usually, that’s not a problem, but in “Aladdin”, it is. During one of his opening songs, Aladdin says, “All good girls take their clothes off!” Lastly, in “The Little Mermaid”, when Ursula turns into a human and goes to marry Prince Eric, it seems that the priest has an erection.
Disney films are also racist in some ways. For example, in “The Lion King”, the voices of the good guys or heroes are white American voices. Whoopi Goldberg and Cheech Marin play the voices of the bad hyenas, in accents that are described to be inner-city ghetto. Most Disney films when you first watch them don’t appear to be bad, but you have to look at the messages that they are sending children who watch them.
