uovoc: ianthe: thealexbane: gnarly-art: Lilo and Stitch presenting an accurate representation of Hawaiians perspective on luaus held by tourists. #what’s sad about this is that this is actually what Hawaiians had to do when the western culture took over #a luau was a sacred practice #until the westerners took the concept and had the audacity to change it into a time to stuff your face with food and put on grass skirts and coconut bras and dance the hula #and when they had these events, they didn’t even let actual Hawaiian people in #so to make money to take care of themselves, the Hawaiians were hired to work in these disgraceful events to clean up after the tourists like slaves only to make less than a buck #so good job disney for doing your fucking research and educating these people #sadly, this still goes on even until today and it makes me sick I forgot this isn’t common knowledge to other people Real talk whoever the creative team on this movie was should stage a coup of Disney and just make more real shit like L&S The writers were Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois. Sanders was also behind the movie’s character designs. Both of them left for Dreamworks Animation, where they now direct/produce the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, among other things. -- source link
