Reminds me of the article about ten years ago when some woman complained about Disney characters’ cup sizes.

Esmeralda from The Hunchback of Notre Dame has to be the hottest Disney character ever

I want Betty Boop back before the censors took her Boop-boop-be-doop away!

Seriously?

"The female characters were also more likely than men to be beautiful."

I wonder if she has discovered the Ru-Paul Drag U program.

She should stay home and watch that rather than go out an make a public nuisance of herself.

Jessica should never be faulted for her appearance. She was drawn that way.

“Sure, except there are few female characters in those films. There are certainly few doing anything meaningful or heroic — and no, Bo... “

She obviously didn’t see “Finding Nemo”, nor did she acknowledge that the “female” supporting character in that movie “stole the show” a number of times during the script, and portrayed a certain “heroic” sense to the character in spite of not being the “lead” character (Nemo).

The owner of Newsweek is Jane Harmon’s husband.

He bought it for $1 about 2 months ago.

. . . boys won't go see a girl movie, but girls will go see a boy movie.

Exactly right. My girls could consistently beat me at the rather bloody video game Doom. I'm sure libtards would be appalled by all that violence, but the girls saw it as a video game challenge, nothing more.

All three grew up to be fine young ladies and not one of them grew up to be a bed wetting liberal.

History and the Bible attest to the hatred the world has for GOOD. Evil is what is accepted and pushed over ever decreasing moral standards. Only licentiousness is promoted on television in varying ways continually.

Television and most every other entertainment and news source is largely an abomination regarding standards and morality. We have become inured to it and certainly the youth accept it almost completely.

Well, by all means, let’s make these family movies more like TV where the men are stupid and the women are the ones runnin’ the families.

Or make them like ABC “Family” programming. You know ... good “family” shows like Friday Night Lights or Secret Life of the American Teenager. Yeah ... good family shows right there, eh?

[Darren McCarty]

They reportedly analyzed 122 family films (rated G, PG and PG-13),

PG-13 family films? Some maybe can be like Indiana Jones, but Bevis and Butthead Do America was also PG-13 and certainly not a family film. James Bond movies are PG or PG-13 but I wouldn't let small kids watch that until they are older.

Every time I see the picture of Obama on the bike I laugh.

After laughing, I wonder how long until a picture of Putin bringing down a tiger bare-handed is posted. And I start counting...

[GOPJ]

All the tv and movies in other categories have the guys being stupid, always needing women’s help to do anything. It’s just crazy.

It's crazy - AND it's not entertaining for straight men and women... (then again maybe film makers are only interested in the 4% of movie goers who are gay...)

"You want? I put in call for you request. Da!"

The fact we have to point out to others when we see this, at least people we know and love and trust, is that portraying men this way - particularly white men - as fat, lazy, stupid, women and blacks and every other minority kicking their asses - is that this is deliberate portrayal by hollyweird and the media companies. This is the message that is being broadcast that kids and others are receiving and it’s reinforced as white guys are the only ‘minority’ group (we aren’t 50% or more of the population) that is legal and acceptable to portray this way.

[GOPJ]

On the bright side, Hollywood - because of it's radical liberal elite portrayals, is dying.

There aren't enough haters of men - white men in particular - to support movies. The same is true of the MSM, print press, and assorted liberal 'art' groups. The hatred of all things traditional gets old quickly.
