Disney Movies are goth as shit

I just watched Bambi and I've been crying and crying just for hours. It's like those hunters were overtaken by the blackness in their own souls, and it forced them to kill.

Or like in Aladdin...man Jafar is goth as shit.

I'd say they're more emo, as self-injury caused by peer pressure is a main theme in Sleeping Beauty - "touch the needle, touch it I say."

I always thought that Disney movies were very dark and goth. Ever since I can remember, I've always thought that but I was too ashamed to say so. I was too weird as a kid and thought that everything was goth and dark. I was goth at the young age seven maybe. My mom get used to take my sis and I to graveyards and read to us alot of Poe, Hemmingway and so on. She brought us up differently. I showed the signs of being goth was when i was 11 when I wore nothing but black since then. I consider Sleeping Beauty to be very goth actually. I thought I was the only "weirdo" who shared this thought about Disney movies. But please, no one bring up the new stuff. I hate it!

No way! Disney movies clean up fairy tales that were once dark as shit and make everyone pretty (except the baddies), then stick a happy ending on the end.

In the original Little Mermaid, she was turned to foam on the sea at the end, and the prince married the other chick. Also every step she took was like walking on a thousand knives, so no dancing. She probably made it to the crapper, cause no one wants to marry an incontinent chick, but that's it.

I'd say the darkest is Snow White - the evil queen was great, and the body in the glass coffin....... death as art...... pretty good.

As for Bambi, not really. The hunters probably kill because it's their living, as all predators survive on prey. Circle of life and all that jazz.

I like the original fairy tales more.

I've noticed that the bad guy won a lot in the originals.....kind of a downer. But still, they were very dramatic and pretty.

Snow White scared me. I didn't want to eat apples for a month.

I would have to agree, Greenie. Although I stand by my original offering: FANTASIA!!! (and NO! Not Fantasia 2000!)

Peter pan used to murder children before they hit puberty because he hated adults

Some Disney movies are dark, and I admit I like them. Instead of them taking dark fairytales and making them happy, I think people should stick to the way the story is written and keep the fairytales dark and make them into movies. Disney movies can be "fairytales for children" and the other ones should be "fairytales for adults". Well, if i had kids I would have them watch the darker ones, anyway. I do wish some fairytales were not rewritten to make them happier.

The only Disney fairytale I really enjoyed was Cinderella, only because my late grandmother told me one of the many variations of it. Namely the when at the end, the stepsisters eyes where plucked from their settings. The Lion King and Mulan would be my second and third favorites but other then that, I stay away from Disney.
