Yes well Warner Bros. has there fair share of banned cartoons. I remember watching some old WWII cartoons. One was about the three little pigs, and a Nazi wolf attacked them. And the first two pigs made pacts with the wolf (like the Soviets did) but the third pig surronded his home with flak guns and anti-naval guns. Then I remember there were cartoons were Bugs Bunny refered to the Japanese as the Japs. Also ever seen the Simpsons and how in the Simpsons theres the Ichy and Scratchy show. Suprisingly it looks a lot like some Loony Toons cartoons I've seen, minus the blood. But really how many times has Elmer Fud shot Daffy Duck. And how many times has the Roadrunner caused the Coyote to blow him self up with 50 tons of TNT.

Disney also taught me that almost everyone in the world has American accents, except for the occasional sidekick, and can sing really well, at the drop of, of well pretty much anything!

A friend of mine also learnt to walk the wrong way, toe-heel, after watching Disney's Cinderella...

Although, you have to admit, Disney is just a convenient target, almost anything shown to kids can influence them the wrong/right way.

That sounds like the coolest cartoon... EVER.

To me cartoons as well as TV in general is a drug. Parents give up on taking care of there children so they put them infront of the TV for hours a day. Instead of reading to there children or going out to the park or the beach they just let them sit and vegitate infront of the TV. It is no wonder there are so many hyperactive, obese, deranged children in preschools etc these days. I think TV is good if controlled and the parants are there with them. The TV is training weels to become a good consumer.

NetChicken what the hell is your problem with Japanese Anime? Well, true Japanese Anime? The Japanese Anime is like Bugs Bunny in Japan. So a show like TriGun(Hero never kills) with violence and profanity, but guess what? japanese kids aren't psychos. Blood, The Last Vampire, blood, gore, violence, but a saturday afternoon movie for the kiddies. The kids aren't messed up. Ruroni(sp?) Kenshin(hero never kills) is about a Samurai who has killed many people, known as the Man Slayer, but changes his way after the war and makes amends by never killing again. He still fights in about every show, and the movie, but guess what? Japanese kids aren't messed up. So, according to NetChicken, the kids in Japan should all be Charles Manson, Jeffery Dahmer, and Lizzie Borden(for the females) combined, but they aren't. NC, I respect you and all, but if tv was why kids are screwed up, then America should be the most peaceful country. We don't allow a tenth of the things they show in Japan. Boondock Saints. Banned from movie theaters in America, shown everywhere else. In Japan they laughed at the scene where a man gets his finger shot off. Those people aren't killing anyone or derangde.

Edited Part. Maybe it has to do with something called RAISING YOUR F***ING KID! NOT LETTING THE TV BABYSIT FOR YOU!

I totally agree with James. Vash and Kenji are cool.

Well due to the violence usually involved with japanese anime it might be best to reserve it for kids older than ten. But of course my friends were still acting like little kids when it comes to japanese anime. As for Disney well if you ask me they have an incredible amount of power. They own ABC and ESPN. Its amazing what kind of influence Disney has. In the wrong hands Disney could cause all kinds of problems for parents.

I am currently reading a book called "Walt Disney: Hollywood's Dark Prince".

So far all ive gotten is that Disney Co. would not let him go through their achives because he said he would not be willing to edit out what he had found in there that was interesting. So he went around them and just talked to people. Ill update you all more when I've finished it.

walt disney has turned over in his grave so many times, he must be in china by now.....

you took those screenshots out of context. this cartoon shows donald duck living and working in germany during ww2--how he has to work constantly, stop every five seconds and yell "heil hitler," etc. towards the end of the cartoon he wakes up and realizes he is still in the good ol' usa, and the "nightmare" is over. disney, warner brothers, and aap (the people who made popeye) produced lots of anti-german/japanese war propoganda cartoons during that time. try looking up "banned cartoons" on limewire or kazaa sometime, you'll find them!

Have found out that you are correct.. apologies for being misinformed about the cartoon...

still a perculiar cartoon to have..

Disney isn't here to teach your child anything. That is your job. If there is something I don't want my kids to see, I just don't let them see it.

BTW Japanese anime is the bomb. Too violent? Loads of Japanese kids watch anime, yet their violent crime rate is lower than ours.

Yeah, let's blame Disney, the NWO, the Illuminati, or whoever else for our problems. We never seem to take resposibility for our own mistakes.

Agree totally! Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Robotech, and Outlaw Star are awesome shows. The only American shows that even compare are shows like Transformers, G.I. Joe, and the modern Justice League...

In "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", during the paino dual scene between donald and daffy duck. Donald (white duck) clearly calls Daffy (black duck) a n1gger

All I can say is that most of you people have obviously never read the original childrens stories. Take a look at the original Grimm Brothers fairy tales. The fact is most of disneys cartoons were based off those stories and the orignals were far more horrific. The simple fact is that allmost all childrens stories have ths type of theme and if you think disney is bad you have never read the real thing.

Hmmm, Grimm Brothers? Where the mother forces the father to kill the kids, but he loves them to much so lets them loose in the woods, they are taken in by a cannabil, they kill her, then kill the parents. Wow, great fairy tale.
