saw that disney movie moana and was reminded of this place.
I do not see how Polynesian mythology would make a good theme for a Disney movie. You'd have to remove all the sexual and violent themes, which are all over Polynesian mythology. Next to that you'd have to cram in the usual "hero's journey" crap and other contemporary Hollywood storytelling formulas which completely takes away what makes Polynesian stories so unique. I hated Disney's Hercules for the same reason. I'll be avoiding this movie, mahu.
>>824 These films, they're created to be as inoffensive as possible. Naturally they tend to be devoid of color.
>>824 Yeah I saw it. Its pretty neutered in terms of Polynesian mythology. Though the songs were nice.
what sound does aku aku make again?
>>824 On top of that they turned Maui into a stereotypical fat Hawaiian and his trickster personality is replaced with a frat boy stereotype.
