    'Toy Story' and the Search for Identity Good Morning! For those of you who have not met me yet, my name is Luke and I am the new Youth Pastor here at Leith Valley. My family and I moved here 2 1/2 weeks ago from Aurora, Colorado. I say I am originally from Kentucky, because that is where the roots of my family are, but being a minister’s son, I was born in Tennessee and lived in Florida for awhile before my family made its way back to the commonwealth of Kentucky. I have one sister, Whitney, who lives in Oklahoma. My parents divorced after 30 years of marriage and are both remarried to wonderful people. My dad is a Pastor in Lexington, Kentucky and my mom lives in Port Orange, Florida. Growing up in the church, if the doors were open, I was there. I came to know and started to understand what a relationship with Christ is when I was 8 years old. Through the years I have continued to grow learn more and more about that relationship. At age 10 I joined the church and followed Jesus’ example and was baptized. At age 17 I began to realize that God was calling me to minister for Him. A trip to Australia when I was 16 got me thinking about more than the world I saw out my front door. When I told God I wanted to give my life to ministry I told him I would go wherever he sent me. After 15 years of different ministry in North America here I stand giving my testimony and preaching in New Zealand! How amazing it is to see what God can do when you begin to understand your true identity.

  • Historical Inaccuracies and a False Sense of Feminism in Disney’S Pocahontas
    Cyrus 1 Lydia A. Cyrus Dr. Squire ENG 440 Film Analysis Revision Fabricated History and False Feminism: Historical Inaccuracies and a False Sense of Feminism in Disney’s Pocahontas In 1995, following the hugely financial success of The Lion King, which earned Disney close to one billion is revenue, Walt Disney Studios was slated to release a slightly more experimental story (The Lion King). Previously, many of the feature- length films had been based on fairy tales and other fictional stories and characters. However, over a Thanksgiving dinner in 1990 director Mike Gabriel began thinking about the story of Pocahontas (Rebello 15). As the legend goes, Pocahontas was the daughter of a highly respected chief and saved the life of an English settler, John Smith, when her father sought out to kill him. Gabriel began setting to work to create the stage for Disney’s first film featuring historical events and names and hoped to create a strong female lead in Pocahontas. The film would be the thirty-third feature length film from the studio and the first to feature a woman of color in the lead. The project had a lot of pressure to be a financial success after the booming success of The Lion King but also had the added pressure from director Gabriel to get the story right (Rebello 15). The film centers on Pocahontas, the daughter of the powerful Indian chief, Powhatan. When settlers from the Virginia Company arrive their leader John Smith sees it as an adventure and soon he finds himself in the wild and comes across Pocahontas.

A hurricane roared and raged through the night. And in the middle of the chaos, a cargo ship was sinking down down down to the ocean floor. The ship left hundreds of crates floating on the surface. But as the hurricane thrashed and swirled and knocked them around, the crates also began sinking into the depths. One after another, they were swallowed up by the waves, until only five crates remained. By morning the hurricane was gone. There were no clouds, no ships, no land in sight. There was only calm water and clear skies and those five crates lazily bobbing along an ocean current. Days passed. And then a smudge of green appeared on the horizon. As the crates drifted closer, the soft green shapes slowly sharpened into the hard edges of a wild, rocky island. The first crate rode to shore on a tumbling, rumbling wave and then crashed against the rocks with such force that the whole thing burst apart.

The company website2 states The Disney Conservation Fund has donated US$70 million+ to save wildliFe (which may include ‘guest contributions’). Whilst this is welcome, it represents only 0.9% of what has been made from The Lion King franchise alone. According to Panthera3, one of the world’s leading predator conservation agencies, the number of wild lions has plummeted over the years since the release of the original Lion King movie in 1994, despite the world’s love aFFair with this iconic and majestic animal.

  • Real Life Locations That Inspired the Lion King Rekero
    The real landscapes that inspired the Lion King – and 10 amazing ways to see them 2019/08/04, 18*46 Telegraph Travel’s safari expert Brian Jackman on the Kenyan plains which inspired Disney’s writers, his own fascinating lion encounters, and ten of the best lodges in Africa to have yours Why should lions have held the world in thrall since the dawn of history? As long ago as the seventh century BC, the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal had his royal palace at Nineveh decorated with magnificent bas-reliefs of lion-hunting scenes. In Ancient Rome, the walls of the Colosseum resonated to the roars of lions as gladiators fought to the death with the king of beasts. Closer to our own time, Sir Edwin Landseer’s four bronze lions were set to guard the statue of Nelson, the nation’s hero in Trafalgar Square, and even in my lifetime I have watched spear-carrying Maasai warriors loping over the savannah to prove their manhood on a ceremonial lion hunt. Celebrated in literature by the likes of Ernest Hemingway and Karen Blixen, lions have maintained their enduring hold on the national psyche, appearing on the shirts of the England football team and even entering our living rooms thanks to the popularity of TV wildlife documentaries such as The Big Cat Diary and Sir David Attenborough’s Dynasties series. But not since Born Free, Joy Adamson’s true-life saga of Elsa – the lioness she raised and returned to the wild – has anything gripped the public imagination like The Lion King.

I would also like to thank the Walt Disney Company, for releasing the movies that became my current material for analysis; my parents, for once taking me to the theater to see them; and Prof. dr. Àngels Carabí Ribera, who teaches at the University of Barcelona, for introducing me to “a whole new world” of gender studies to analyze them. In addition, Sebastian Loll deserves special mention for pointing to Donald Duck‟s collision with fascism, while Kasper Malfroid has spared me the desperation of trying to subdue Microsoft Office.

Th is is particularly apparent in the case of Toy Story (John Lasseter, 1995), which, through its own particular depiction of play provides a critical insight into contemporary social and cultural concerns, which relate to the changing nature of family life, the role of new technologies and shift ing patterns of production and consumption, especially in response to ecological crisis. More specifi cally, and as this chapter seeks to show, the setting of play depicted within Toy Story forms a primary site for the creative expression and working through of fears and anxieties relating to loss – especially the loss of analogue materialities, something inherent in the computer- generated animation process. Th is allows the animation to be read as a means of re- establishing and normalizing mascu- line forms of cultural production, and as that which sustains patriarchal interests (especially through the use of heroic fi gures and storylines).
