  • Define "wrong message"

    I appreciated this article, because as much as I loved Wall-E, it is refreshing to read something examining a point of view other than pure unadulterated awe. Additionally, I followed most of the links, and found the ''Junkfood Science'' article especially interesting. And I did walk out of the theater behind an overweight blonde man with a buzz ...

  • Fat enough

    I couldn't even finish this article. I am sure that some people can't help being fat. All your science aside I have known many people that went from an active lifestyle to an inactive one and gained a lot of weight. Period. If you don't care enough about your own body to eat right, exercise, and generally take care of the one and only thing in ...

  • Are you crazy?

    ''But there's little evidence that overeating causes obesity on an individual level and no real reason to think that anyone can lose a lot of weight by dieting.'' Wow... That was, well...stupid. So, there's no evidence that our lifestyles are the cause of weight gain. The follow-up sentence was even more intelligent. That children who watch TV ...

  • Seriously? That's What You Got Out Of Wall-E?

    Equating obesity with environmental collapse? Wall-E is a story about consumerism not obesity. It's about a government run by the CEO of a retail chain and how profits and ecology usually don't get along so well. It's a cautionary tale about how blindly following a corporate entity that insists it can provide everything people need to exist by ...

  • Annie Leibovitz's relationship with Disney

    What I find curious is that no one has pointed out that Annie Leibovitz has a relationship with Disney. While Disney is busy scolding Ms. Leibowitz and Vanity Fair for their manipulation of a young star, there has been no mention of a photo taken by Leibowitz for Disney that is set to appear in the June issue of VF. The photo depicts Julianne ...

  • Disney underwear ad

    Oh, pulllease! This billboard is NOTHING like the Cyrus pic OR the Klein ads. The young girl is holding puppets (otherwise known as TOYS) and is as fully clothed as a day at the beach. Let's not go haywire over every little thing!

  • Why the Chinese 'exploit' Caucasian girls only?

    Why the Disney licensee/ad agency are using the image of a Caucasian girl for a Beijing billboard? Well, I believe their original idea is to project a lovely and angelic image, which is based on the naked babies they have seen from classic Western arts. 'Angels' have to be white, hmm. Moreover, Disney is a US brand, and the manufacture probably ...

  • More Disney photos from China

    Sorry, but I think Disney is kidding us when they think that the Miley photos were bad. Look at what tmz.com found in China: http://www.tmz.com/2008/04/30/disneys-dirty-little-victorias-secret/

  • One less person in line...

    The author seemed to enter this experience with preconceived notions, especially since he wrote that Disney World is a, “universe completely fake and soulless.” I did agreed with some of his experiences and perceptions, but certainly not that one. In my experience first time visitors can be “poisoned” by the initial shock of the World (the ...

  • Beijing Billboard

    RE Disney response to Beijing billboard makes no sense. If the Chinese license holder was going run a billboard ad for their goods they would have used an asian model not a caucasian one like on the billboard. Looks to me like a pretty standard catalog ad from a US license holder likely APPROVED (and maybe placed) by Disney? It's ...
