As a Clawhauserfag, this isn't obese. Clawhauser is obese. This is muscelchub at worst, thick and fit ant best.
Is the level of public awareness really that low? Look at any strongman, dude looks "fat" because underneath that fuel for muscles is MUSCLES
People want to argue about fucking nothing.
>>84098585
This has to be a bunch of white people making a fuss. Everyone knows Polynesians are big as fuck. Especially Samoans and Maois. Look at the Polynesians pro wrestlers and NFL players there have been. All big strong fat fuckers.
If this were a fat girl as a main character these faggots would be applauding Disney but since the male lead isn't the ideal pretty boy they're losing their shit.
>>84099105

This is what happens when you include minorities in your films at any level. Activist groups come out of the woodwork to complain about it regardless of the choices made.
Ebony magazine declared Princess and the Frog to be "racist" a year before it even came out. Their reasons were that Randy Newman was white, the Prince was white (so he was made generic brown), and also "Maddie" is a racist name (which is why it was changed).
You can never please minorities. It's best just not to include them.
He's the size of a samoan rugby player or wrestler , and those guys are fast as fuck
>“This depiction of Maui being obese is typical American stereotyping. Obesity is a new phenomena because of the first world food that’s been stuffed down our throat.”
>stuffed down our throats
The evil white man/western society shit again. No one is making you eat fat food. No one held you down and made you eat McDonald's and KFC. This exaggeration to excuse poor life choices is disgusting no matter who it is from and even more so when you try to drag a children's cartoon character into it.
>>84099236
or just ignore them entirely and let themselves look like retards. but yeah, American companies are too receptive to bloggers who'll probably just stream or pirate thier movies anyway
>>84099105
That's because these fat bitches want to self-insert as a fat bitch that still gets the hot guy.
This makes me like the character even more because cry babies hate him so much.
>>84099236
Why would you give your first black princess a white prince though? Gotta spread some black love before going interracial.
I want to see some bearmode guys coming out and protesting their lack of representation in Disney films, but they wont because they tend to have self esteem.
>>84099236
>You can never please minorities.
Did you even read the fucking article? How is Ebony fucking magazine the voice for entire race? It's obvious they don't all feel that way.
>>84098585
Where were the Scottish Representation Activists when Brave came out and portrayed all Scotsmen as violent, stupid, slovenly, sexist morons?
>>84098585
So it's only okay for a white character to be fat and strong?
Those people are racist.
>>84099236
There's lots of us who appreciate it and aren't bitching. I can't control everybody who's the same race as me.
>>84099236
They bitched about the name and the guy being too light but nothing about the main villain being a shucking and jiving voodoo witch doctor.
They cherry pick the issues but let other shit that is more offensive slide.
>>84099316
I'm one and I don't give a shit. I just crush all my problems between my pecs and my "fat" arms.
>>84099366
To be fair the Princess and the Frog did suck.
>>84099265
It is harder to eat healthy when you're poor, and a lot of Polynesians are poor as fuck
>>84099345
because Scots are a pansy bunch of welfare fags, of course they would like thier shitty non country to be portrayed as badass.
>>84099378
Maybe because the shucking and jiving witch doctor was cool as fuck.
This will always be the issue with trying to be PC and please whiners. They cry about not being represented then when you represent them they cry that it's not the representation they wanted.
This is a weird one because most people have no idea who and what a Polynesian is or where Polynesia is.
Disney is doing you a service exposing people around the world to your culture and you have a fit because the mythological god is too fat for your liking.
Also worth noting , the majority of Rock's family are 300 plus pound giants with freakish athleticism
>>84099410
Everyone is fucking poor in some aspect. Eating $5 combo meal and being poor still doesn't mean you're being forced to consume that type of food.

>Where were the Scottish Representation Activists when Brave came out and portrayed all Scotsmen as violent, stupid, slovenly, sexist morons?
>Portray a Scotsman as greedy, heartless, shifty and mean, no one gives a shit.

So why is it okay to present Scottish people as miserly tightwads, but not Jews?
>>84099459
Remove Roman
>>84099475
Of course they're not forced to, but when they can spend $50 on food instead of $100 on a $200 weekly budget, why wouldn't they?
>>84099378
Because its evil witch doctors are a thing. Had a classmate who's grandma who practiced voodoo and she put curses on ppl and shit. You should read up on this stuff, its pretty cool.

Bingo. They also made his proportions look too cartoony compared to the others—if you shrank him to half Moana's height, he could pass for her chubby, five year old bratty little brother, because his head to body ratio look more appropriate for a child in her world.
>>84100263

I kind of get the Randy Newman thing. I don't really mind his work but you have to be really fucking lazy to decide to use him in that movie.

>>84100546
>I kind of get the Randy Newman thing. I don't really mind his work but you have to be really fucking lazy to decide to use him in that movie.
The reason Ebony cited had nothing to do with the quality of Newman's music, but because he was white. It had to do with a larger "problem" ebony had that there were too many white people working on the movie in general. They felt that a movie starring a black Princess should be made entirely by black people.
WHY DOES HE WEAR THE TATS?
>>84100637
Probably some religious significance.
>>84100369
I'm a black guy tho.
>>84099236
>This is what happens when you include minorities in your films at any level. Activist groups come out of the woodwork to complain about it regardless of the choices made.
If minorities put as much effort into getting jobs and contributing to society as they do complaining and moving goal posts, then maybe they wouldn't be so marginalized and resented.
>>84100582
And I also sort of get that part when it comes to music. I mean it's New damn Orleans, can't you bother getting one of the 9000 black musicians that would be a better fit for more than one reason?
Like, you know, not getting tons of black animators because of dumb quotas is fine, but if there's one thing where African-Americans are culturally significant, it is music.
I mean, if they hire base on artistic talent, they'll probably end up with a mostly white crew like it happened, but there's no damn reason to take Randy damn Newman over the tons of black musicians that are not only better than him but also much better fits with the atmosphere of that movie.
>>84099410
>frozen veggies and rice
>frozen meat or soy for proteins
>saltines and peanut butter for those midnight cravings
There you go. Most staples from around the world are made with cheap, easily accessible ingredients. If youre in place without those either move or stop pumping out more people
>>84100582
That makes sense, you want people to bring in personal experience and understandings to projects that they can possibly offer. Especially if there is a degree of touching on race like Princess and the Frog did, even something as minuscule as capturing New Orleans culture accurately. That's not to say "no white people allowed" but having a movie set in New Orleans with hints of jazzy music being the soundtrack's theme, wouldn't you want someone more in tune with that scene than Randy "Sing About What Is Happening Internally In This Scene" Newman?
>>84100715
>I mean it's New damn Orleans, can't you bother getting one of the 9000 black musicians that would be a better fit for more than one reason?
Randy Newman is by far the most famous modern musician from New Orleans.

>>84100782
>Randy Newman is by far the most famous modern musician from New Orleans.
Yeah he's so New Orleans that he was born, left for a while as a kid, and came back and started his career in Los Angeles.
>>84100805
No one here is calling anyone racist.
>>84100816
>daily reminder that Moana will NEVER EVER be as popular and do as well as Frozen or Zootopia.
I think what people forget is that most of the worldwide box office doesn't respond well to movies starring brown people. They don't make much money in Europe and are ESPECIALLY ignored in Asian territories.
Like that movie Red Tails. It fuckin FLOPPED internationally because no one outside of the US (and arguable few people within the US) want to see a movie starring brown people acting like brown people.
It's just a fact of life. Moana is a "prestige" film, meant to look progressive and timely but calculated to make a loss at the international box office.
>>84100715
9000 black musicians or not. Most of them wouldn't know how to compose music for a blockbuster hollywood film which is a big task. Randy Newman has years of composing and working in the music and movie industry under his belt. And he enlisted black singers and musicians to aid him in making the soundtrack.
People who believe someone should be given a job due to their skin color instead of their merit or experience that's racism and bigotry. The very thing left leaning people tend fight against.
>>84100782
>Newman was born in Los Angeles, the son of Adele "Dixie" (Fox) (August 30, 1916 – October 4, 1988), a secretary, and Irving George Newman (November 28, 1913 – February 1, 1990), an internist.[5] He lived in New Orleans as a small child and spent summers there until he was 11 years old, his family having by then returned to Los Angeles.
PatF wasn't set in modern times and Newman's music isn't representative of historical New Orleans style music.
Also Birdman is more famous.
At first look, I thought, why did they gave such a large female character so flat of a chest?
>>84100874
>People who believe someone should be given a job due to their skin color instead of their merit or experience that's racism and bigotry. The very thing left leaning people tend fight against.
It doesn't count when it's aimed at white people.
No, I'm not being facetious. That's what they actually believe. The whole Racism = Discrimination + Institutional Authority meme. Therefor, black people cannot by definition be racists.
>>84100816
Maybe not. But I'm still happy that it is made.
I'd much rather watch a movie involving non-whites when they use their own cultures and legends for inspiration instead of turning white characters black.
>>84100874
The point was that he didn't particularly have merit there. Many movie composers exist, many are better than him (although admittedly not a lot of them are black).
I didn't say it was the worst choice ever, just lazy, as in "let's get that guy who's worked for us a lot before". You could also call it safe or unimaginative.
>>84100902
You're responding to a strawman with another strawman.
Those opinions do exist, nobody here has expressed them.
>>84100874
Disney is a multimedia company that can afford taking a risk such as hiring a more or less unknown composer to work on their film, especially if its to add authenticity like they are now with Moana's character designer. No one is saying Randy doesn't have merit (barring criticism of his work) but for a movie that Disney was proudly presenting as their first step to an inclusive and "progressive" future like featuring their first Black Princess, it's kind of lazy to rely on the same old tired composers and so on due to seniority and not try and start some new blood going up. Stale traditions are what even held back PatF in reviews ironically (what with the funny animal sidekicks and prince plot instead of what people found compelling like Tiana's work to try and start her own business.)
>People who believe someone should be given a job due to their skin color instead of their merit or experience that's racism and bigotry.
No one is arguing that, they're just offering alternatives especially since in hindsight, all this hindered the film. Stop getting overly defensive.

I wonder how black women named Maddie felt reading that, or how parents that named their children Maddie felt about it. Or if they wouldn't have written that if someone named Maddie was on their team. Maddie is short for Madeline which is a fine name. I always thought Tiana was a shitty name that sounds like somebody made it up out of nothing for no reason than it sounds vaguely black and ethnic, and I've always hated weird ebonics names like that, but at least I can admit that's more a matter of personal preference. Also Tiana really doesn't sound like a name you'd find someone giving their kid in that region in the early 1900s.

Anyways, I dunno, Zootopia was meant to be the side movie that was meant to get out early and move on for the main event (this) but after Finding Dory, would people be willing to go out and watch it after the inevitable reviews comparing the two?

The indigenous people of Scandanavia were brown. Else and Anna are white. Therefor Frozen is racist and anyone who enjoys it is a racist (including the children. Especially the children).
I'm a native Pacific Islander and I have no problem with Maui's appearance. In fact, his body type kinda reminds me of my grand-uncle's: my grand-uncle was a Stevedor his entire live and had a large, undefined belly and fuckhuge shoulder--the belly wasn't fat at all but a mass of muscle he got from powerlifting shit day in and day out.

I remember reading somewhere that Maui was actually depicted as tall and lean in Polynesian mythology. Anybody got sauce on that? If it's common among enough nations I would definitely see the problem with taking a powerful part of their culture and degrading it into something for the sake of diverse bodies.
>>84103166
What gets me the most about that whole controversy is that they think that the Sami where the natives of all of Scandinavia, when they've only been living in a rather small part of the area. The Swedes, Norwegians and Danes are all as native as the Sami. They've all lived there for thousands of years.

actual Hawaiian here. Samoans are fat as fuck, everybody knows this. Nobody around here is upset at all, partially because nobody knows the movie is happening yet, because the only people who know about movies before they hit the theaters are internet-dwellers.
>>84103146
Well, are the people in that community complaining about how Maui is being portrayed? Because the people complaining are also in Pacific Islander community, but in NZ.
The truth is that some people are going to complain about things, and for valid reasons. The important thing is that Disney can defend their position, thankfully the character designer has already done so.
>>84103301
Oh shit if that's the case then I'd definitely take offense. I guess that bird transformation at the end of the teaser made me think he'll be more adventurous but I really don't know how they're going to balance him. Either way though, Moana's initial reaction not acknowledging him as a powerful deity or not being impressed gives me bad vibes.

I think he's supposed to have been somewhat forgotten after a long period of time. He also dresses in a way older fashion, with leaves and shit,than any of the other characters, who all have weaved clothes. Him being forgotten will most likely be a plot point.

>Original natives of Scandinavia
Fuck off. The Sami are as native as anyone else from Scandinavia. They only live in the most northern region of Scandinavia. This isn't the same thing as the American natives vs European descendants in any way, shape or form. As a dane this shit pisses me the fuck off. There's never been any fucking Sami in Denmark, ever, and these fucking idiots dare say that they are more native to the region than than another group of people that have lived here for as long, if not longer, just because we don't live in small huts and shit anymore? Fuck you!

Nah man, he died from cocaine which is actually amazing, because it would have taken a huge amount to kill him
Stop body shaming Moana.

pretty much
>>84103947
Some cocaine may have been involved, but weighing 340 at his heaviest, it's safe to say being a gigantic fatass was a part as well.That's 340 kilograms.That's over 750 pounds, past spurdo cart mode and well into Jabba the Hut mode

Right, but Swedes, Danes, and other Norse people are descended from Germanic tribes that migrated north about two thousand years ago.
The Sami have lived in Scandinavia since the last ice age.
>>84104379
>>84104076
Well, no, they aren't more native to Denmark. To parts of Sweden and Finland, yes, but not Denmark.
>>84104379
>Right, but Swedes, Danes, and other Norse people are descended from Germanic tribes that migrated north about two thousand years ago.
Danes are descendants of a mix of germanic immigrants, and the natives that have been living here since the ice age too, when the region that the Sami would later come to live in was still covered in think layers of ice. Swedes and Norwegians are descendants from those people. Sami are native to the northern region, and the rest are native to the southern region. Saying that the Sami is "the original native/indigenous people" is some fucking bull shit.

You know what, I finally figured out why white people have the need to do this or at least some
White People don't really have anything to defend because they've never had any problems with their race or being treated like shit or harassed or become slaves for a large period of time. They've created almost everything we ever do in life, have created some of the best eras of world.
They have no real negatives. So these people feel the need to "help" other people
None of my black, brown, tan raced friends of all backgrounds give two shits about this God and what he looks like, they even said he looks buffed as fuck. No one gives a fuck. I have friends who play Witcher and never onced were bothered that there weren't any fucking blacks in it.

But Frozen had non-white characters, the trolls, which were the minorities
Moana is pretty much my ideal girl, looks-wise ;_;
what a coincidence
>>84105970
It's an incredibly old stereotype about how Scots are all dirt poor so they are thrifty as fuck, never throw anything out, and never use anything or spend money if they can ever help it. It's poking at how Scotland is this totally broke backwards nothing place full of sheep and misery while England was the wealthiest nation on the planet.
Tons of cartoons have been depicting that. There was a 40's looney tunes with a Scotsman who outran bugs to go get his bullet back and put it back in the gun. Scrooge McDuck was a 50's character.
Can I ask you guys something. As this becomes more and more commonplace how do you guys fall asleep at night knowing that these kinds of people could be in positions of power some day? Like if you think it won't happen to you or that normal people wouldn't be stupid enough to vote for them, look at trump like this could happen to anyone anywhere how is that not terrifying

"DISNEY IS SAYING ALL POLYNESIAN PEOPLE ARE OBESE. REEEEEEEE."
>>84106981
Same thing happened with Princess and the Frog
They had to shift the character around because people would complain she was too "stereotypical" or too "whitewashed". Naveen was settled on probably arab after people said it was racist that he was white or black.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPVpMxVn6mk
>>84107258
I don't think they ever considered making Naveen black(nor did I hear any major complaints from people thinking it would be racist if he was black) at all though. I think they didn't want to alienate the rest of the audience by having two black leads and making it seem like it was a 'for black people only' movie. There have been studies that show that there are some people who have trouble connecting with non-white leads in movies.
>>84106981
People who say quote A aren't also the same people saying quote B. I know it's hard to keep track since internet users become this constantly fluxing blob of differently labeled communities but people have their own opinions and can and will express it. People just need to learn that they can't satisfy everyone and move on, and that's probably why this won't impact Disney's developement on Moana whatsoever.
>>84105299
I think the Princess and the Frog's problem was that they spent too much fucking time as frogs. I liked their human character designs so it sucked to not see much of them.
Let me get in on this bitch session too.
Remember "Brave," where Merida's father was an obese Scot? Remember how all the other Scottish males were all portrayed as being daft fools? As someone of Scottish ancestry, I want to complain about these demeaning, bigoted caricatures.
Clearly it's wrong to tell stories with ethnic characters who are not perfectly average, ordinary human beings.

Suburban guy here who occasionally spends time in what I'd instantly call a ghetto.
Ghetto has lots of food options but not many raw or fresh groceries, and those that i can find are generally more expensive than fried fast-food equivalents—which are also faster to cook and don't require cooking equipment.
If I were desperate and poor, I'm just sayin', i would buy a LOT more McDonald's.

Doesn't matter what you do, someone will always choose to be triggered. Let them, then ignore them.
>>84098585
I remember there being an article (I don't think it was the guardian) about why the prince in the Princess and the Frog was hispanic. The reason being, that if they made him black people were bitching about, "oh, so she's not good enough to date a white man!?" So they made him white, and people then complained, "Oh, so black people can't be princes!?"
It's impossible to please everyone, and if you try you's just disappoint yourself.

One person's best era is another person's tragedy. But otherwise you're spot on.
People love to get mad and feel righteous. White people can't do that with their own race, so they have to defend other races. Which members of other races usually find insulting as fuck.
>>84111798
>If I were desperate and poor, I'm just sayin', i would buy a LOT more McDonald's.
There is no place in the western world where you can't buy basic shit like rice, beans and frozen vegetables for way cheaper than what a less healthy, less nutrient rich meal at McD would cost. Even stuff like canned meat and fish that you find at gas stations have better nutrient values than the "meat" at McDonald's.
The food desert myth has been debunked countless times, but leftists like keeping it alive because it gives them an excuse to keep stuffing their fat faces with burgers while complaining about businesses making them fat.
Face it, poor fatties don't eat at McDonalds and become fat because they're "desperate", they do it because they're too lazy to boil rice or open a can of tuna, and they're too dumb to figure out the value of the food they eat. That same laziness and stupidity is why they're fat and poor in the first place.

Actual food (ingredients) are cheaper than fast food.
The issue is time, not money. Impoverished individuals often work more than one job.
But even that doesn't really matter when you can slow cook meat while you're at work and make hummus/raw veggies whenever.
Fast food tastes good because fat and salt, but people don't give a fuck about their health when it means not eating something as rewarding to our brains.

One is culture. Two. If you can talk evolutionary biology without getting triggered, there's a super hard cap on food production on small islands. And transport and trade between islands takes a massive amount of time and muscle power between resupply.
That strongly favors a hyper efficient metabolism that can store enough food energy internally to suvive kon-tiki distances.
Add in modern high calorie density food, and modern ship motors, and the result is a 95 percent morbid obesity rate on some islands.
