The fact that they decided white lions = white people… Idk man, but for me its a big red flag for what you said, albinism in nature has more to do with being disabled than with colonialism or some pretentious mental ramble they had. Yeah, disabled pieces of trash exist, but in this case… Let’s see, shouldn’t Mufasa be blamed for colonialism too? I mean, he winned reign over a territory where he was an outsider. Also, why the white lions went into killing other lions? Wouldn’t it be better to enslave them since they are settlers and a representation of colonialism? (Sorry not sorry, but watched both Sonic 3 and Mufasa and gotta say it: Gerald and Shadow had better logic behind the revenge plot and don’t make me elaborate about SA2 lore)
This alongside with the machism of this movie by literally saying that Mufasa got super powers bc he was with the females.
Idk, but defintly reeks of false female power bc it made look like being female makes you superior and special and therefore turned something that shold be the status quo (the capacity to be a competent leader and apex predator) into an exception… Which is defintly something from the XIX century to justify the gaslighting women suffered… And then you get Sarabi being made with the “strong and empowered female” in mind and then in execution she does nothing…
The bad guys in Mufasa: We were all ostracized for having a phenological disability and because of that we’re gonna fucking become genocidal colonizers
My honest to god reaction:
#why does this movie exist anyways?#mufasa spoilers#fantasma rant and ramblings about stuff#like yeah pirated mufasa before going to see sonic 3 and well I didn’t expected much and still got dissapointed#like why!?!?!?#was it really necessary#if they didn’t told about the colonialism subplot or whatever it was I wouldn’t had noticed it even if I literally studied a history degree#bc ya’ know I don’t see the point between albinism and colonialism#also those lions are a native species but since disney doesn’t make research anymore they forgot to add the subspecies factor#like they would had made them an invasive species to that territory better#but since this lacks research and is only based on the idealization of nature 🫠🫠🫠#also pointing the outsider argument doesn’t work in this case bc Mufasa was an outsider to Melele aka the great grand valley#so arriving there and be named as king wouldn’t mean that he’s a colonizer too?#ughhhh#also this movie reeks of gaslighting#and mansplaning#like Shadow said: Gabriella should kill them both#but replace Gabriella with Sarabi#despite everything
