I actually rewatched The Powerpuff Girls Movie the other day, and I found it surprising how well it was done, even after all these years. As far Superhero origin stories done through movies goes, I think it's one of the better ones. |

If a friend of mind is visiting with his/her kids, I'm willing to sit through a pixar movie, but that's generally the only time I would bother, and even then - pixar is a pretty special case due to the insanely high production value. Well, there's a good chance I practised more obsessively than most people will. The way I saw it - time spent watching TV was wasted time I could have used for practice. |

I missed a lot of TV as a child as well... I was too busy gaming, either at home or the arcade ![]() Also, Colin... some of us never grow up - i'll watch cartoons, play super-deformed platformers, and go down waterslides until the day that I die!!!!!!! |

And some of us grow up very quickly, perhaps too soon even. I guess a different kind of childhood will yield a different kind of result. |

I was forced to be more of an adult than any child should, and at a very early age. ...has nothing to do with my tastes in entertainment. |

Well, I was simply trying to come up with some explanation. For whatever the reason may be - I lost interest in kids stuff when I was quite young. (And no doubt it logically follows that by the time I was older, I had even less motivation) |

No worries man... it's just not for everyone. …some people who game as children get like that about our hobby as adults – different strokes and all. The only time it really would bother me is if someone would use my “childish” tastes and hobbies to launch a personal attack upon my maturity. I might be immature, but video games and anime have NOTHING to do with that fact ![]() |

Hah! personal taste certainly doesn't dictate personal maturity. Furthermore, for what it's worth, 'maturity' can actually cause all sorts of social development problems. When other kids were playing dress-ups, I was reading Epicurean philosophy. I haven't had a serious relationship in nearly 10 years. There's got to be some connection, I believe. |

Mulan was cool, and did a good job of highlighting many of the insanities of gender based segregation. Good shout. |

Tangled as well. and the Princess and the Frog... They've been a lot better about their sexism. Edited by Prealienking, Aug 8 2012, 10:29 AM.

There is no doubt that they recently have to appeal to younger girls in a manner that is slightly better than "Wait for your man, that'll sort everything out." But a lot of damage will have already been caused to a lot of people. Although admittedly, I can't say I've seen Tangled or the Princess and the Frog. I did, however, *love* a bit in Shrek (wasn't the first, can't remember which one it was though) whereby all the captured female roles decide to break out... By sitting there and waiting for their 'Princes'. Slightly funny, but very relevant. But still, 'Sign of the times' is an easy way to disregard the damage that can be caused by such media. |

I'd recommend checking out Tangled if you've got the time and a means of renting it. It's a pretty good movie, and has one of the better princesses in recent history. She's no Mulan, but she's better than the typical princess. |
