  1. 1.) The film made me rethink my view of Disney.
    2.) I didn't learn anything new except for the negative reaction from the audience whenever they released a film.
    3.) I think they would just crawl back into their little shells and wait 50 years to ever show their faces again.

  2. 1.I asked myself is disney really the nice children's company? I learned that sometimes people have to tell you the truth before you believe it because the video showed disney as very sneaky. they would probably deny everything and say that these shows and movies will each kids very well and somehow get out of it.
    2. How dare Disney degrade women like that because many females are powerful and can uphold anything. I learned that Disney is sexist and rude. They would probably forget about the bad ways they represented females and went through the angle of Mulan.
    3. Racist, racist, racist. I learned that Disney is a very racist company that degrades hispanics, blacks, and asian community's. I think they wouldn't really care they would just wait until people forgot about the concept.

  3. 1. I was questioning if it was even allowed to hide such grown up messages in what are supposed to be childrens movies. And although they do project bad messages about sex and abuse at times, I think that people who make such a big deal out of it should find something better to do than criticize practically the basis of some people's childhoods. Maybe some of the bad messages weren't even intentional.
    2. I learned that even with something as simple as a movie, what it projects can form and mold the way children think.
    3. I think disney might deny that they meant to project such bad messages, but sneakily try to destroy whoever suggested that idea, since they don't want people to know that disney isn't all magic and princesses.

  4. 1. my initial reaction was that I thought that disney was just a little racist not racist in almost all of the movies. I also was shocked to find out that they were protested
    2. That disney has been boycotted and forced to change the words in and songs in their movies because of racism
    3. They would be mad and deny it and bring them to court to get this video off of the internet
