it pretty summarized to this. Cartoon uses a various type of religious and implied in into their cartoons. example :
Pictures taken from : http://web.media.mit.edu/~ayah/MediaTheories/ :
From my point of view , this is just depends on how the viewers view this. People who sees this as a racist problem are considered as close minded, hence the topic "stereotype" .
Critical reflection #1 | Yet again this a very diversify topic as there is a lot of ups and downs here. I have to say i had a hard time standing on either side. Cant deny that the pictures shown above really have the racist "factor" in it. but if u really REALLY watched cartoons. These parts are just 1/10000 of their whole productions. Its kinda like a little spice on their menu of the day. In fact from my experience, i learn a lot from cartoons from Disney / Wanner Brother's. Why? Its because they really shows the various type of culture in their cartoons, and since its CARTOON of course there is a little bit of humor in it.
Heck i even knew Hitler since i was age 7. Not like some of my friends only knew the name Hitler after watching the movie Valkerine .
Critical reflection #2 | Some of you might say kids tend to believe what they saw on TV yada yada etc.. True, i agree on that but here is where parents come in. Ever heard of Parental control? i watched every single cartoon i can lay my hands on and still i have not turned into a bad egg. My parents explained whenever something gory/ racist shows. heck i also didnt know a arab donold duck belly dancing = racist . Its all just entertaiment people, dont hate cartoon so much.Everyone has been a child before. So dont act all macho / matured. You know you miss em, so go grab a remote after finish reading this blog and tune into Cartoon Network.
Personal thinking | no class. well its the same if there is class or not.. its just boring. and.. average.. in my opinion we should learn more general knowledge from this class.. the more " did u knw..." is better.. example i learn how KCF started to advertise in Malaysia.
