When Leni Refenstahl visited the U.S. in the mid 1920s Walt Disney was the only studio head who would see her. Her influence is all over something like Bambi which was alsois a pioneering environmentalist film.

'overwhelming majority'? The great majority of films made don't even mention our wartime efforts and the small minority of those that do generally don't win Oscars. As for values, any book/movie is going to reflect the values of its maker. If you're expecting all artists to be devout Christians keep waiting. That's never been the case. And 'Hollyweird is Satanic' rhetoric is what's preventing many good people from going into filmmaking.

should be ‘mid 1930s’

I don’t believe that Walt WAS a studio head in the mid-1920s. He was working for Paul Terry where he created Oswald the Rabbit. He learned his mistake when his lost out on revenues and started up his own company in the late 1920s where he had Ub Iwerks come up with Mickey Mouse and made millions off of someone else’s creation.

I would agree that it was a pioneering environmentalist film.  It's been a while since I saw the short, but I do believe it laid it on pretty thick for young kids, the death of the mother deer.

I don't remember much else that might have been problematic.

You may not understand this, but the entertainment industy is heavily represented by leftists.  It's so much so that way that conservative members quite often squelch their own opinions in order to not negatively impact their livelihood.  Mel Gibson had a hard time getting a distributor for his film The Passion.

The result is that a lot of inundeo is inserted that goes to reinforce leftist dogmatic stereotypes.  Tell me the last time you saw a Catholic Priest depicted in an honorable manner.  Right off hand, I can't think of one.  This is the pattern.  I don't mind that Priest might be portrayed in a negative mannor, if they would also be portrayed in positive manners as well.  That seldom happens though.

It's so pervasive that many people just take it for granted and ignore the problem.  We're not just talking about the war, patriotism, religious icons.  We're talking about a host of other issues.

As for "Hollywierd's Satanic Presentations", I don't reference it in that manner.  I do address the problem, but I try to mention the issues I have with Hollywierd in particular.

I also found it rather disturbing to see big Hollywood names donating to Bill Clinton's defense fund.  That didn't exactly endear me to the industry.

If there is something wholesome, you can generally count on Hollywierd to depict it in some unsavory mannor.

Hey, that's how I see it.

Thanks for the comments.
