(Oh, that was harsh )
Well, I won't really claim something being overrated, There are a lot of reasons to like or dislike something. Does tea, coffe and chocolate appear to everyone? no, then , would we call them overrated if we see a lot of people finding them tasty?
The same applies with the media as well, if there was a general standard for a cartoon or a movie, then at this point every movie will be the same, and there wouldn't be differences of tastes. The reality just the opposite. People tend to like different things,when we call something popular overrated, then aren't we suggesting that everyone is wrong but us? :okiedokielokie: Which is extremely unfair given the diversity of taste.
I will not get too long into this so let's just say: Given the diversity of taste, the only way to judge a cartoon is by it's popularity, but as an individual, the only judge is you ,it is your opinion, cuz there isn't a standard for a media to be.
Well , returning to the topic , I really like Nostalgia Critic not because I agree with everything he says but because it is fun to watch. And here he isn't really suggesting that "The Lion King" is overrated but only giving his fair opinion which is totally right. even if I “disagree” with him.
Moral: Call me irresponsible but I didn't really cared about the morals! I will be perfectly fine if it wasn‘t any behind!........not really. :okiedokielokie: Well yes , I care about the morals! My point is ,we can find anything I want from the show if I wanted to, I don't really think it was Disney's purpose to teach the kids to denied it's mistake. why don't accept the movie as it is , Why don't just see the beauty inside it instead to try so hard in exploring it's "flaws". and anyway you see morality isn't something definitive as everyone have different point of views.
Songs: Different tastes.
Scar: Didn't care about how he was, just liked him. :comeatus:
Disney logic: Just like a beautiful simple magical fairy tale. :comeatus:
