(Parody) Social Commentary in animated films

[Disclaimer: This article is a parody story. While some events in this article are actually taking place, it is written for comedy purposes and shouldn’t be taken too seriously.] 


Social commentary in movies isn’t new.

Sometimes it is necessary.

Most of the time, it ruins the film. (Like “The Last Jedi.”)

Animated movies aren’t immune to this.

And it isn’t just Disney animated films. Other studios have continued putting social commentary in movies for years, long before President Donald Trump took office and political messages in films became more obvious.

Here’s a list of social commentary in animated films.

Some of these movies I actually like, so this list is just for comedy purposes only.


The Land Before Time franchise — Evolutionist propaganda.

An American Tale (1986) — Russians (in this case, Russian mice) are the good guys, so you know this film was written by “Russian bots” working for Putin.

Balto (1995) — Clearly an allegory for the relationship between Indians and the White Man.

Once Upon a Forest (1993) — Everything is humanity’s fault.

FernGully: The Lost Rainforest (1992) — Everything is humanity’s fault.

We’re Back: A Dinosaur Story (1993) — Old man in time machine uses it for his own purposes instead of solving the world’s problems. Clearly a “Back to the Future” rip-off with dinosaurs.

The Iron Giant (1999) — Anti-War, Anti-Gun, Anti-Second Amendment propaganda.

Pocahontas (1995) – Revisionist history children’s film dares show us that white people and Indians can live together peacefully. Nuff said.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) – Kind Catholic religious leader shelters deformed hunchback and Gipsy girl inside Notre Dame Cathedral. Must’ve been written by a Knight of Columbus. Also, do not cheer as Notre Dame is set on fire during the climax.

All Dogs go to Heaven (1989) — Tries to convince us that all dogs end up in Heaven, even the evil ones. Plus, cheating on horse races is okay if you can talk to animals.

All Dogs go to Heaven 2 (1996) — Cats are evil creatures from Hell and must be destroyed. Obviously written by a dog lover (or cat hater). Also, bad dogs end up in Heaven as well.

Anastasia (1997) — Revisionist history musical flick shows Russian Princess Anastasia Romanov survived the Communist Revolution in Red Russia and paints Communist-Socialists in a negative way. And Christopher Lloyd is always the bad guy unless he’s flying around in a DeLorean time machine with Michael J. Fox.

Titan A.E. (2000) — An alien race tries to wipe out humanity because of mankind’s ingenuity and technological advances. Obviously written by someone who supports President Trump’s Space Force. Also, all aliens are racist against humans.

The Secret of NIMH (1982) — Scientists and farmers are bad. Obviously written by Progressive elitists who hate everyday Americans. Or someone who wanted to terrorize young kids.

Antz (1998) — Being a mindless drone in a Communist-Socialist society is bad. Clearly written by Capitalists.

The Road to El Dorado (2000) – Two Spanish con artists impersonating pagan gods for profit are more redeemable than the Catholic Spanish soldiers under the command of Cortez. You know, those guys who defeated the Aztec Empire and freed Central America from their tyranny.

Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002) – Indians are good and the U.S. Army is bad. Definitely written by someone who hates the United States, the U.S. Army, white people and westward expansion. Or someone who failed history because Native American tribes had also waged war against each other long before and after the United States moved west.

Movie Review: The 5th Wave as Anti-Military propaganda

This article was originally published on June 9, 2017. Normally a story that involves humans fighting seemingly invincible aliens warrants a good story. You'd also think the military would be there to protect Americans. But before long, it becomes clear to the protagonists in “The 5th Wave (2016)” that Americans should resist the military, that the soldiers are the real enemy to humanity. "The 5th Wave," based on the Rick Yancey novel of the same name, follows a long line of Hollywood's assaults on the honor and integers of the brave men and women who fight for their country. Unfortunately, most of Hollywood hasn't limited their attacks to five. The film centers around a young girl who sets out to find her brother after their father is killed in a massacre carried out by military forces. Right after the parents do the natural thing and resist being separated from their children forever. This is the director's way of telli...

Life and Persecution: Some so-called Catholics that should be excommunicated

(This article was originally published on January 20, 2018) The Roman Catholic Church has seen its share of good and bad times. Yet the Catholic Church has survived for over 2,000 years, from the persecution by the Roman Empire to the rise and fall of Communism.  Yesterday, January 19, young Catholic men and women across the United States joined tens of thousands of other young adults in the 45th March for Life. Even those who were unable to march continue to support the pro-life cause and live their Catholic faith everyday of their lives. All of these men and women—Catholics, Christians, and non-Christians alike—showed our country that there are plenty of Millennials stand up for the unborn and want to end legalized abortion in the United States. Catholics should be proud of their heritage as Catholics and to call themselves Catholic. They are part of the majority of lay people who really do their best to live and practice their Catholic faith. But ...
