Disney 's Influence On Disney

Using different opinions and perspectives in her analysis proved that she is not biased for or against Disney. While there were many aspects of the novel that I agreed with, there were also some that I did not. I did not fully agree with the chapter “Analyzing the World According to Disney”. Wasko talks about how Frances Clarke Sayers, children’s literature expert, claims that “ Disney falsifies life and is not really related to the greater truths of life” (Wasko 126). I think that statement is being too harsh as Disney does teaches kids some good life lessons. Without a doubt, children deserve some fantasy and excitement in their lives. Regardless of what other people believe, I see Disney films as a way to escape and teach lessons to not only children, but also adults as well. Our society today is constantly being exposed to the harsh realities of life, and many can tell that the world of Disney is a utopia. In addition, Sayers explained that Disney’s adaptions of classic fairy tales make it so that there is nothing to make a child think or feel or imagine (Wasko 128). I completely disagree with this statement. After talking to many people, everyone claimed that after watching a Disney movie, they wanted to be one of the

Disney is a lie. Why? This corrupt company brainwashes consumers into handing over their hard-earned money in order to purchase overpriced merchandise, all while under a facade of innocence and happiness. Fairy-tale endings and a cheerful mouse might represent Disney’s projected values, but underneath the exterior lay indicators of Disney’s corrupt ideals. Common people are deceived into handing over their hard-earned money to corrupt companies in order to purchase overpriced products. The power that these companies gain allows these businesses to control, to a certain extent, politics and influence political decisions. These companies will not hesitate to fire American workers in order to save a handful of dollars and stifle any trace of dissent. Therefore, large corporate companies should stop exploiting and manipulating consumers for profit.

For most of society, the word Disney elicits warm feelings: memories of early Saturday mornings with family watching cartoons, family trips to Disney World, or a movie that was so encapsulating it was watched over and over again. Disney achieves a high level of regard from most of society unparalleled by other companies. Penn State education professor, Henry A. Giroux, accompanied by Grace Pollock, argues in his book The Mouse That Roared: Disney and the End of Innocence that society is blinded by Disney’s façade of “childhood innocence” and that Disney’s marketing tactics are far from innocent at all.

Walt Disney once said, “It’s kind of fun to do the impossible,” and I guess he was right. Disney made films that made a wooden puppet into a real boy, a thief into a handsome, and a beast into a man. Disney created dreams for little kids of becoming royalty, but was that all they had in mind? Although Disney films may seem full of happy thoughts with true love’s kiss, but in reality they are just bibidi bodibi booed with a dash of pixie dust to hide the real truth behind the films.

Prompt #1 Disney is a company that uses stereotypes in order to make money. Society enjoy to decide whether something is good or bad for us; therefore, great part of it are specialists critiquing the work of others. For example, you will always see people writing journals about the negative and positive aspects of a work - entertainment, publicity, or information. This happens because these people have the need to feel superior to the ones that do the work they are critiquing. Disney is one of the principal companies that are criticized by the society because Disney is also one of the biggest companies in the world.

Despite the fact that there are so many Disney films that are (and should be) criticized for their social imperfections, there have been some recent signs of

According to the leadership of the Southern Baptist Convention, the Walt Disney Corporation historically stood for “basic American virtues and values” but now represents a “significant departure from Disney’s family-values image, and a gratuitous insult to Christians and others who have long supported Disney.” Their belief is that Disney entertainment products produced while Walt Disney was alive differ substantially from those produced in the post-Walt era. Through time, it is inevitable that particular things have changed since the production of Walt’s personal films from the 1920’s to the 1960’s (such as being aesthetically and cinematically advanced, in

According to Carl Hiaasen, “The secret weapon is trust. Disney is the most trusted brand name in the history of marketing. It hooks us when we’re little and never lets go; this unshakeable faith that Disney is the best at knowing what’s best.”(13) It is time that this myth be shattered.

The Walt Disney Company is one of the largest and most well-known corporations practicing Corporate Social Responsibility, all the way down the line in their business model.

While making animated films projected at youth and at others who Disney hoped to infuse innocence into, being the entrepreneur he was, he also had to keep in mind the business of his company. Disney wanted to promote the carelessness of being young, and desired to show even adults that they, too, could be happy and relaxed. Being able to do so and keep audiences of all ages interested enough to save his company from bankruptcy is indeed a challenge. Nevertheless, Disney was able to generate films that people of many different generations to enjoy, and all the while become extremely successful.

The Walt Disney Studio’s Diversity Mission Statement is “To create an inclusive environment that is open to all perspectives, allowing us to tell compelling stories in film, animation and music that visually and emotionally reflect our audience worldwide.” “The Walt Disney Studios maintains that the only existing boundaries are those of talent, ambition, imagination and innovation.” (Moore, 2007)

In the realm of entertainment, Disney leads the way with creativity, bringing to life fairytales and stories that only the most imaginative child could come up with. Children of all ages, teenagers, and adults leave the theater of a Disney movie inspired, empowered, and entranced by the magic and wonder brought about.

Bryman’s book discusses about the Disney culture influence through the concept called Disneyization. Bryman first talks about what Disneyization means and how it differs from the term Disneyfication (Even though they both mean the same thing). The author goes into detailed descriptions that describe how Disney has taken over our society through its movies, theme parks, and merchandising. Bryman gives a general background history about these factors throughout his whole novel. “Since the early years, merchandising has been a major activity for Disney. At the time of the release of Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs in 1937, Disney had signed at least 70 licensing deals. Disney

"Cultures are dynamic and change occurs when resistance slowly yields to acceptance so the basis for resistance becomes unimportant or forgotten"[2]. Which means that on the part of the European community we are certain to see compromise, but over a period of time. Disney too has to reconcile with the environment it has settled in. We read in the case that Disney does ultimately mend its ways. Making room for continuous change is the best way to go about ones business.

Disney has moved well beyond its cartoon-oriented roots. Though the company is still involved the production of original feature films and other related media (and though the media network division of the Company is still the organization’s leading generator of revenue) the company has long since stopped being your typical “animation studio” or “film production company.”
