I'm posting about the Disney subliminal messages. I agree that it is ridiculous that Disney has made a fortune off these movies that to our generation are considered Classics. I can't believe that they can get away with the things they have put in their movies. What I'm wondering though is do these subliminal messages ever reach us? If we didn't notice the messages then is there really any harm to them putting it in there? Why did Disney ever put them in there in the first place? I've also heard a lot of talk about SpongeBob and other modern day cartoons having similar messages hidden in their shows. I was also wondering do you think it’s the animators drawing these things in there and then producers not catching them to remove them or is it the corporation as a whole purposely doing these things. This topic made me think of a video I seen on you tube. I came across strange videos on youtube about Lady Ga Ga while looking for a music video. They are accusing her music of having subliminal messages about the sex, promiscuity, mind control, and religion. This makes me think that sometimes we make assumptions that really make no sense because we are reading to deeply into them. Come on we all know sex sells and we all already know and have gotten the weird meanings from her songs on our own. I don’t think they are subliminal at all they are blatantly clear. What does make me question some things though is when they talk about the shapes and hand motions she makes around her eyes and the symbols they make. They call it, “the all seeing eye.” I looked into this finding that, “the all seeing eye,” is the picture many of us have seen before with an eye on top of a pyramid or an eye with beams of light coming out of it. It is symbol of protection and god watching over. I don’t understand why they are contradicting their selves saying she is hiding messages of oral sex, orgies, and prostitution yet, “the all seeing eye,” is a holy symbol. So if in fact she is making the, “all seeing eye,” that is a good message. One thing I do agree with is how towards the end they show the girl sitting in front of the T.V with a dazed look on her face. They say that it means mind control through the media which I thought kind of made sense. Tell me what you think.
