This implies the film also presents a story of a white savior, and that was not the case at all if that's what you're suggesting... I wasn't sure, so I put the if there. Pocahontas is the hero of her own film, even if the story is not accurate to her actual biography. The only sin that this film commits is being inaccurate to a real person's life story, which incidentally is also the case for any and every film in Hollywood about a real person. I was pissed about how straight America portrayed Freddie Mercury's relationships in Bohemian Rhapsody, that doesn't mean the film is going to be or even should be banned a hundred years from now. Disney had wanted to tell a Romeo & Juliet style story after the success of B&tB's love story and having used already used Shakespeare as inspiration for TLK to widespread acclaim, it's not like their goal was to subsume Native American culture for the sake of greed as some have suggested. lol I'm sorry, that assertion is just histrionic and nuts to me. I'd actually say that's more true of what PIXAR did with Coco, when they practically attempted to copyright the Dia de Los Muertos holiday when they first began working on that film. If Disney had advertised Pocahontas (then or now) as true history or an education film to be shown in classrooms, then, yeah, maybe you'd have a leg to stand on and be angry about. But they didn't because it's a -movie- made for -entertainment- purposes only. No, it doesn't show the slaughter of Native Americans, but it does present the white settlers as the enemy encroaching on territory that didn't belong to them, it does present Pocahontas and her people as in the right, the themes and music of the film do highlight trying to understand rather than immediately demonize someone not like you and what could've been if that had only happened, etc. etc. to the audience, who should be able to learn the truth about what happened next on their own. That's partly why the ending of the film has a tragic tone, because the audience knows what ultimately will happen to Native Americans.
Personally, I'd be fine with them re-enacting the film exactly as it is in KH, the reaction from people here be darned. (Actually, the reaction here would be icing really, I can't pretend. lol) It's not like Square has been afraid to piss off fans by refusing to give into their demands. They've been doing that for years and, imo, there is nothing majorly wrong with this film? You can always find somebody angry online about something or other, that doesn't mean the world at large has to indulge them. All else I could say is simply don't buy the game if you feel that strongly about it? *shrug* That's a choice everyone makes for themselves in regards to their consumer habits; there are many things I've refused to purchase for political reasons, so it's your prerogative. But I'll continue hoping it appears in one of the next few KH games. It would've fit in 3 perfectly, considering the Keyblade War would have related to the story, which is a shame. I loved FMF's idea back on the first page about it being literally a "new" world that's just been created, pure of Heartless and so on. That was really neat. And of course I'd love for Pocahontas to be a PoH, much more than I would Merida, for example, ugh.
