I found out I can watch Filippine CD movies on my new computer (my laptop is adjusted to play US DVD's).
So we watched Barbie Princess and the Pauper. It was a "PIXAR" type movie. Very sentimental.
And Barbie, and the scenery, was beautiful, although the "acting" a bit wooden.
Now, Most of the "modern" cartoons on Nicolodian are...UGLY.
I don't see "problems" with them, merely that they are ugly. I take that back: I have BIG problems with the white man bwana superiority of the "wild Thornberries" where the ugly girl talks to animals...
You see, she saves animals from poachers...
Last week, in an area that they are making a resort, had a dolphin die off....the authorities tried desperatly to save the beached dolphins. But when they came back, they found many had been "mutilated"...but reading furthur, what had happened is that the local people came up and butchered them for meat.
Here, poor people have trouble affording medicine for infection, but we have money for saving dolphins? Every day, NG or discovery has a "special" on African animals, but little on the news about the many massacres there, and even major democides like Dafur and Zimbabwe are only touched briefly...
Nope. Got to save the animals, black people don't count.
