May. 24th, 2004 08:14 amThe Brave Little Toaster, one of my favourite childhood movies, is FUCKED UP. That is a fucked up movie right there. It just readies kids for this terrible consumer culture we have going on in the States.
Was lying down last night, trying to fall asleep, when Ki started thinking about what a nice movie The Brave Little Toaster is.
wrong!
This movie depicts a bunch of inanimate objects, as living creatures, with emotions, and feelings, and they're sad when they're left behind. They run after the child for leaving them behind, and they feel hurt, and unloved.
What the hell kind of message does that send people?
Ki'll tell you what kind of subconcious message that sticks into the minds of young people. It makes them want to go out to the store, and buy everything in sight, because if they don't, the objects might go to the dump, and they might be sad, and they might resent little Bobby-Jo, and Mary-Sue for not taking them home with them.
It also makes them want to pack-rat and stock pile everything they can get their greedy little hands on. Never ever throw anything away, weither or not it's broken or outdated, or just not used anymore.
THIS
is the source of all evil in America today. ~_* Stick that in your pipe and smoke on it for a while.
