You're dead right. If Disney could just realize that people want to see uplifting stories about heroism, truthfully told, instead of this PC garbage, they would be making a mint.
The real head scratcher is how do these movie execs think that our country was founded? That Texas was founded? Do they think all of our forefathers were just racist con men? It would seem so; it would also seem that they think ALL of our forefathers were idiots and liars because they believed that what happened at the Alamo (or the Civil War, or the Revolutionary War) was heroic.
The real litmus test is: could this movie have been made by Stalin's film propagandists in the Soviet Union who would have been trying to discredit and discount everything about American history?
Answer: yes.
That's the scariest thing about this movie. It is plain sedition.

Well, maybe the Fess Parker "Davy Crockett" is a romanticized sugar-coated version but, by gum, it's a good story and one that Disney should have known not to mess with. What fools those mortals be!

I made a point to announce to our family weeks ago that this film was a PC "message" film and we would NOT be going to see it.
I took the boys to see "Walking Tall" instead. Not the best movie, but had a good moral theme underneath and a good hero figure.

Once upon a time that's what Disney did. Used to make a bundle and have tons of business at their amusement parks from what I hear.

They think those things about our heroes and Founding Fathers because being bottom feeders themselves they can't conceive of "better men".
