2019 is now problematic

Alladin (2019) description on sky...

'This film has outdated attitudes, language and cultural depictions which may cause offence today. Re-imagining of the Disney animation with Will Smith. Flashing images.'

Somethings gone terribly wrong in 2020 if Sky thinks a 2019 children's film needs a 'woke' trigger warning.....

Even aliens, a film with multiple strong female characters, doesn't pass the 2020 woke can proceed without a trigger warning test apparently.

Still not quite sure why?

Ah, "woke" - the pejorative term people can use to self-identify as wilfully dozy.

It's ironic that what Vox identifies as the cultural baggage and harmful depictions of Arabs in Aladdin and which are being denied in this thread almost certainly contributed to the ignorance and islamophobia demonstrated by those denying it.

Harmful depictions of Arabs?

What are you waffling on about?

Does Frozen get the same level of cultural dissection based on its stereotypes of scandinavian and indeed English protagonists , antagonists

(the trope of the evil and cowardly upper class white English man as depicted by the lord of 'Weazeltown')

and other actors?


* see also most Star Wars movies (amongst others) where the baddies are often played by the common trope of the upper class white Englishman.

I literally said "what Vox identifies".

You don't even read full sentences, let alone the links referred to. It's almost like you prefer to make rash prior judgments. What do they call that?

You appear to concur with vox's lunacy given that you managed the extraordinary reach to towards Alladin contributing to 'Islamophobia' even though the fictional city of Agrabah would not have been much different if Aladdin was set pre in a time frame pre the birth of Muhammad.

And there was no mention of Islam in the film.
