CBR ranked the top ten most offensive Disney films that should be banned

Do autistic people seriously just wake up and instinctively feel the need to complain about everything and want everything to be dumbed down?

You idiot!! This is obviously engagement-farming clickbait!!

You have always been able to find real people like this on tumblr, tvtropes, twitter, etc, regardless of that

Ratigan *was* gay, wasn't he?

I like to think Ratigan swung both ways.

Anon, ALL British males are gay.

Probably was like Volgin and liked both sexes as long he is the one playing the sadistic role.
It is nt about the sex,but the power he could feel about it

That was three decades ago dude. Lots of those people are dead now.

Could swing either way
Basil was 100% gay though, if the stripper mice cause indifference to annoyance there's no way he likes any female

anon, CBR is 100% liberal media

is this a satire or what?

He's just married to his job, that doesn't necessarily mean he's gay.

Here’s the list for anyone who’s too lazy to c+p the link:

10 Aurora Has No Agency in Sleeping Beauty

Jealousy can be a tough emotion to overcome. In Sleeping Beauty, the villainous Maleficent is so angry at not being invited to the kingdom princess's christening that she unleashes a curse that renders the baby, Aurora, comatose in a deep sleep when the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday.

Women's portrayals in movies, including animation, have drastically changed since Sleeping Beauty was released sixty-five years ago. Filmmakers are mindful of giving their female characters more agency than, say, lying on a bed and waiting for a prince to come kiss them. Disney has made efforts in this regard as well in recent movies like Moana and Wish, so a passive character like Aurora wouldn't have a space in their lineup today.

9 Some Argue The Jungle Book Has Racial Stereotypes

Disney has gotten a lot of flak for racial stereotypes in early animated films, and The Jungle Book is no exception. The movie follows a boy named Mowgli who is discovered by a panther in the jungles of India. Mowgli is raised among the animals, even though the murderous tiger Shere Khan doesn't believe humans have a place in the wild.

Many viewers have been outraged by the racial profiling of King Louie in The Jungle Book. Some argue he is a questionable stereotype of Black culture. Furthermore, the song "I Wanna Be Like You" also hints at the minority conforming to the standards of a dominant race. To be fair, a live-action remake of The Jungle Book did come out in 2016. The difference is that the film drastically changes King Louie's character to a fully articulate giant monkey without a hint of stereotype.

I should also mention the title is actually “10 Old Disney Movies That Wouldn't Fly Today”

8 Kids Would Be Terrified by The Great Mouse Detective

The Great Mouse Detective is one of the more underrated Disney films ever made. It follows Basil of Baker Street, a mouse who solves mysteries with his buddy, Dawson. The latest case they must solve is the disappearance of a young girl named Olivia who is being held hostage by the evil Professor Ratigan.

For the young audience, there are too many scary scenes in The Great Mouse Detective. The bat minion, Fidget, is enough to induce nightmares, let alone the terrifying Disney villain, Professor Ratigan. While the movie does have a G rating, there is a controversial scene where a sexualized mouse sings a song called "Let Me Good to You" to a bar full of rowdy oglers.

7 Peter Pan Features a Highly Controversial Scene

Neverland is a magical place in the movie Peter Pan. Wendy and her brothers travel to the mystical world where they meet all kinds of unique characters, including the temperamental pixie Tinker Bell and the evil Captain Hook. For no real reason, there is also a stereotyped tribe of indigenous people inhabiting the land.

Peter Pan is mostly innocent, but there's one scene in the movie that would cause it to never come out in theaters today. There's an inappropriately named song, "What Makes the Red Man Red," that mocks the use of the word "how" and makes fun of Indigenous people's skin tones. This is blatantly offensive.

2 Pocahontas Is Insensitive Toward Indigenous People

This has to be a joke article right

6 The Hunchback of Notre Dame Is Too Dark and Morbid

Not every Disney character is stereotypically beautiful. Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a deformed man who lives an isolated life in the bell tower of the town's cathedral. He falls for a beautiful free-spirited woman named Esmeralda and makes it his mission to help her escape Notre Dame.

This is one of the more recent movies on the list that just wouldn't make the cut in today's theaters. The Hunchback of Notre Dame has offensive language, such as the racial slur "gypsy" and the derogatory use of "hunchback." With that aside, a man tries to drown a baby in the opening scene. The film would be considered too dark and morbid for children.

5 Pinocchio Has Eerie Undertones of Child Trafficking

Pinocchio is about a wooden puppet who longs to be a real boy. He was created by a charismatic toymaker named Gepetto who wishes on a star for his creation to be real. A Blue Fairy visits later that night and grants his wish.

Some Disney movies wouldn't fly today because of their racial stereotypes, while others are just too terrifying for kids to watch. Pinocchio falls into the latter category because of a scene where the titular puppet rides in a carriage with a bunch of other boys to an amusement park called Pleasure Island. Viewers have gotten the creeps from this scene since it hints at child abuse and trafficking.

4 Alice in Wonderland Is Way Too Trippy for Today’s Kids

Bored and full of daydreams, a young girl named Alice wanders away from her tutoring session to follow a tardy white rabbit through the rabbit hole. She's transported to a magical place called Wonderland, where all the creatures are "curiouser and curiouser."

The scene featuring the hookah-smoking caterpillar is among the most controversial Disney scenes ever created. Alice in Wonderland also offers plenty of strange imagery and scary creatures. On top of all that, the movie is just plain weird for kids. Disney's current marketing team would have no idea how to pitch Alice as a Disney heroine, or cut a trailer that makes the movie seem anything other than a psychedelic head trip.

3 Mexican Culture Is Stereotyped in The Three Caballeros

Donald Duck doesn't get as much attention as Mickey Mouse. He did have his moment in 1944 when he starred in a movie called The Three Caballeros. Donald Duck receives a magical collection of gifts from his Latin American friends. The gifts have the magical ability to bring him to different musical numbers.

When talking about controversial Disney movies, The Three Caballeros doesn't come up that often. It should be mentioned in the conversation, however, due to its offensive stereotypes of Mexican culture. There's a rooster in the film who wears a giant sombrero, has a pistol in a holster, and speaks with a heavy accent. To their credit, Disney+ recognized the inappropriate nature of the content and put a warning on the screen before the movie started.

Oh fuck off, Mexican fucking love old Panchito Pistoles.

2 Pocahontas Is Insensitive Toward Indigenous People

Of all the Disney princess movies, Pocahontas may be the most controversial. In the film, the titular princess finds love with a white settler named John Smith. Her father, the Algonquin chief, is less than happy about his daughter's choice of suitor.

Aside from the distasteful song "Savages," most of the music in Pocahontas is beautiful. However, that doesn't excuse the insensitive depiction of indigenous people seen in the film. Some critics have also gone on to say that Pocahontas perpetuates the idea that the "good" members of the indigenous tribes are those who help the white immigrants. This kind of subtext would not fly by today's standards.

1 Song of the South Is Disney's Most Controversial Movie

In the live-action animation Song of the South, a man named Uncle Remus (James Baskett) shares various stories about a character named Br'er Rabbit to sharecroppers working on a plantation. These stories are used as a moral guide for seven-year-old Johnny (Bobby Driscoll) who has come to visit.

No Disney animated film is more controversial than Song of the South. The movie has been slammed for its depiction of its Black characters and the glamorized nature of plantation life in the pre-Civil Rights movement South. Disney has tried to do damage control in recent years to make sure this controversial Disney movie is no longer viewable. It's a different world today, and there's no way Disney would make the movie now.

tl;dr it’s the most low effort garbage and OP is a massive faggot for wasting our time with it but I will give him credit for posting it archive link instead of just a screenshot

This list is so incredibly dumb. It's one thing to argue Song of the South or Peter Pan are racially insensitive, but another to say Alice in Wonderland is too trippy (???) and that's bad for kids for some reason.

this is clearly written by ChatGPT

Did people actually expect a good article from this lol

What it really is, is pretending to be shocked, for views. You know, outrage. You know how the Nostagia Critic pretended to be horrified by something scary, like this for example? Like that, but he was clearly acting that way for laughs. They act to you like they mean it.

And you know the best part? NO SHIT kids would be terrified by it. It scared me when I was four. But I still liked watching it. I just covered my eyes on the scary bits. Well done, what a groundbreaking article!

Captcha is 08AMYY OBAMYY!

Cunt needed to pad it out, see.

5, yeah no shit it has undertones of child trafficking. THAT'S WHY HE'S SCARY. He exploits young people with booze and ciggies and other evils like billiards (wat) and then TAKES THEM AWAY. The whole point of that scene was to warn about strangers who entice you with shit as a child.

6 can fuck right off. And the gypsies who live near me and call themselves gypsies will tell you that. I'm also very tall and nearly had a hunchback as a kid. It's not something you'd hear a doctor use but there's a difference between the word hunchback in the title of a movie and having it yelled at you in the street.

A man tries to drown a baby? A BAD PERSON does a BAD THING!? From a book about that sort of thing!? Oh teh noes. We need to all crawl into bed and never leave like that one morning after I saw the film when it came out on video and wondered how they could show this to kids, much like a lot of people did at the time, and this author does now... when I was six.

10 was just shitty writing, not sexism.

LMAO this whole thing.The racial insensitivity - sorry, he should say low level racism if he's going to posture as an anti racist, call it what it is - is a good point, but that's it. Talk about padding it out.

Woman.

I use the singular form because there’s one famous example of a bitch calling in about married with children. You got anymore?

4 Alice in Wonderland Is Way Too Trippy for Today’s Kids

I used to work at a call center for city hall, job was to write complaints, I do remember at least a dozen women calling, worried about what the tv has for their children, saying some were satanist depictions and others "plain sex".

Rattigan's a raging malicious narcissist, he'd fuck anything that reminded him of how great he is.

I prefer to think of these articles as cynical clickbait because the alternative is infinitely more depressing.

He's asexual like Sherlock. One of the points of Sherlock is that he's basically pure logic with little room for anything else.
It's where the whole "I'm a brain" comes from.

3 Mexican Culture Is Stereotyped in The Three Caballeros

Mexican culture is fucking BASED in The Three Caballeros. I thought white people had learned that Mexicans love seeing their culture depicted in any way, but clearly not.

and other evils like billiards (wat)

Billiards was a game played by hustlers and scammers and associated with seedy places where bad shit happened. Arcades had the same reputation in the '80s.

So autism then.

The fact none of these movies could be made today is less a condemnation of yesteryears mores and more a condemnation of todays profoundly pathetic crop of creatives.

Well before that became a thing, but basically yeah.

Sleeping Beauty should be banned because... the female character has no agency

Holy shit, we're still getting mainstream articles saying shit like this by almost 2025? You can warn feminist moms about it if you want, but completely advocating for banning a historical movie, or any movie at all even, just because the female character isn't awesome enough is dreadful.

Disney has made efforts in this regard as well in recent movies like Moana and Wish, so a passive character like Aurora wouldn't have a space in their lineup today.

Retards like this are why we're in a traditional heroine drought and have been for a decade. Imagine using Wish as an example of female characters getting better. Women can't be feminine and peaceful anymore, longing for someone to whisk them away in a happy romantic setting, they have to whisk themselves away, and find a bumbling male to take down. If you're "lucky" the bumbling guy will be a sidekick, and will get a hard-on for how awesome she is and she'll reciprocate because of power dynamics.

We're never getting a good female lead again.
