Oh boy... If using a frying pan, the OLDEST gag in the book of physical comedy, is considered promoting violence and criminal activity, then HEAVEN FORBID they show us Marx Bros., Looney Tunes and Charlie Chaplin movies.... THEY MIGHT CAUSE WORLD WAR 3, 4, 5 AND 6!!!!!!LucilleBallFilms wrote:LOL the comments on the article can be ridiculousDancingCrab wrote:Ugh...the media is trying to kill this film.
Yahoo is now elaborating on the LA Times article. Disney needs to make a press release if this is in fact untrue, and not just a post on facebook.

"The clip I saw above of Tangled looks like Disney promotes domestic violence & criminal activities, with the princess using a cast iron skillet to knock out the prince then stuff his body in the closet to cover up her crime. I am against the changes to the classic movies. You want more hip and action then come up with new stories (or writers) and leave the classics alone."
Seriously, this is stupid. Let's think about it for a second... Rapunzel has been living in a tower for 18 years. The only person she knows is Mother Gothel, and she has told her than the outside world is scary and dangerous. Now, if you were in her situation and man suddenly breaks into your house or room wouldn't you grab the nearest thing possible and beat him with it until an answer is given?
Plus, she didn't hide Flynn to cover the crime, she did it so he doesn't come and attack her again. She is terrified and thus is acting accordingly.
But nothing will company to the fact that people believe that the Lion King is sexists because the lionesses do the hunt when in fact real lions do that.
