spinoff: disney, finding nemo anti-american?

[Q Classic]

ok, doing google, i see one joke that seems to make everyone think the whole damn movie is anti-american.
an exchange between two sharks:
"Humans! Think they own everything."
"Probably American."

===

is that really anti-americanism? i mean, seriously? it's a one-liner that is a throwaway joke.

I don't think Ned sees the same anything as most of us do.

Are you sure Ned didn't mean Dori? I think she fits the "spaced out, drugged-addled hippie" profile better.

the only thing Dori fits with is the spaced-out thing... there's no suggestion that she's drug-addled or a hippie...

She fits a "ditzy dumb blonde" sterotype much better.

Oh, and she was voiced by a lesbian. More fuel for the far right hate-mongers.

Q3 - that's the joke! Only one in the whole movie that even comes close to "anti-American".

the movie was antisemitic. Sea gull = Siegel, get it?

dansed to add smiley, for Gueveras sake.

Er, same goes for the turtles. They just talk like surfer dudes.

at this point i want to know if ned has even seen finding nemo, and now it casts doubt into the allegations about some horse movie i've never heard of...

[GePap]

And the "sea gulls" have big noses, and beedy eyes and are selfish, only knowing the word mine. Its so clear now.

[Q Classic]

let's not forget that Nemo is obviously a tip of the hat to Jules Verne, who was French, and therefore anti-American...

[FrustratedPoet]

Maybe this ... http://www.laughingplace.com/News-ID10000670.asp ... is the horse movie?

Actually, it might also be that Hidalgo movie with the guy who played Aragorn in it. That was a Disney Pictures film. I don't think that had anything to do with Native Americans, but why should that stand in the way of Ned's disapproval?

The horse one was Called "Spirit: Something something"

[Q Classic]

did some more googling, i think ned is referring to animated horse movies... and the only recent one i can find isn't even disney's at all, it's dreamworks skg... spirit: stallion of the cimarron (what a mouthful...)

so now that both movies in question are not disney movies...

how is disney anti-american?
how is finding nemo/pixar anti-american?

and i don't know what this horse movie is about, but how is that anti-american for portraying native americans as the oppressed?
