The page you were looking for no longer exists

If you've ever spent any amount of time reading me you know that I occasionally have terribly random thoughts that pass through my head.  You might also know that I'm a fan of animation (not just japanese anime, but US stuff as well) it bought me to a few questions.
 
I've always thought that in general this country has progressed from more conservative to more liberal as time has progressed.  We've freed the slaves (liberal *also Republican*), we've desegregated our schools. These are imporant issues that everybody seems to agree on.
 
We've also done other things.  Playboy started us down a road where pornography is allowed.  Video games can be as violent as they want and become more so everyday, which leads me to Disney.
 
Alice in Wonderland:  We have a blatantly drunken mouse (and probably Hatter and Hare).  We have a catipilar who is high and SMOKING WEED. 
 
Pinochio:  Underaged drinking and smoking.
 
Dumbo: Drinking
 
Today in cartoons its difficult to even get an innuendo passed the censors.  What in the nine hells yappen?

    I just want t know how they came that far?  In sleeping beauty Prince Charming stabs Malificent.  Then in the eighties He-man was revolutionary because he was on of very few cartoons where he was allowed to hit somebody.  We aren't all references to liquor are now replaced with soda.  It's utterly rediculous.

    I think it has to do with the unholy alliance of social conservatives who don't like boobies (publicly anyway) and feel-good liberals who cannot tolerate any form of the depiction of real violence.


  • SeanRenaud said on May 18, 2008....
    That really is an unholy alliance.  But damned if that logic doesn't make perfect sense.  Particularly when you look at other countries.  Countries that lack that strong religious base seem to be lax on breasts (see Canada, Japan, Mexico, Europe, their Seasame Street equivalents would be right at home on MTV in the US. 
     
    Then look at countries that do have that strong religious group (mostly the Middle East I can't find any highly religious civilized country.  The two things seem to be rare to find in one place.  Religion and what could be called an advanced nation that is) they are very strict about nudity and the like.  We are unique in having both groups prevalent in our country.

       i dunno...

    you know ive been reading manga and watching anime these days and i love it!!! can you recommned some? i like ecchi and yaoi....
  • SeanRenaud said on May 19, 2008....
    Odd as this may sound coming from an admitted pervert but  I don't watch much ecchi or yaoi.  I'm generaly more into mecha and power.
     
    On that note I would highly recomend anything done by Miyazaki.  Which means Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle
     
    Berzerk if you don't mind complex relationships, and a lot of gore.  I would p also like to recomend Death Note on the same reasons.
     
    If you just like fun Dragonball, Naruto, Gundam anything (But Wing in particular) Tenchi anything (but Universe in particular) all stand out as good fun anime.
     
    For Hentai I can only recommend Bible Black.  Everything else I've seen has been pretty abysmal.
  • queenparanoia said on May 19, 2008....
    seanraud: i already watch spirited away and i think i would watch those others you recomemmend. i dont like some action anime though like dragon ball or naruto. i would rather watch those with stories. either romantic-comedy or suspense. my cousin have been bugging me to watch death note. (and i will if i have time). and you know many people have been recommending bible black. maybe i should it...lol... =) thanks for that sean. now i know i could talk to someone here about anime... =)
  • SeanRenaud said on May 20, 2008....
    If you liked Spirited Away go get Princess Monoke and Howl's Moving Castle.  Specially Howl, it's better than Spirited Away.
     
    If you like stories more than action you are going to want to watch anything by Satoshi Kan.  Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers
     
    I haven't watched Paranoia agent yet but my friend who's the major critic approves and that's always good.
     
    I like power anime so I recommend Hellsing, wether it's the standard Hellsing or the Ultimate Series.  The standard sticks closer to the Manga (and isn't finished yet) The OVA has outstanding music and Alucard is just fucking cool behond believe
  • queenparanoia said on May 20, 2008....
    thanks for the recommendation sean... =)
  • SeanRenaud said on May 20, 2008....
    Any time.  I give good recomendations so long as I know what kinds of stuff you enjoy.

Disney now has a new black princess which seems much more important to adults than little girls of all races...
