Movies and television series are excellent tools for teaching political science and international relations.Understanding how stories in various film and television genres illustrate political ideas can better assist students and fans understand and appreciate the political subtext of these media products.This book examines politics through five film genres and their variants.Gangster movies focus on American and other organized crime.They reached their zenith in the films of Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese.Political thrillers express paranoia about secrecy and political conspiracies, while action movies channel anger at foreign and domestic threats to order.Superhero films and TV present modern characters who seek to serve society as they face personal struggles about their individual identities.War movies promote positive images of wars when conflicts are perceived as successful, but often include antiwar messages when wars turn out badly.Western movies fell out of favor in the 1970s and 1980s but have undergone a renaissance since the 1990s.Westerns can be taken as either political parables, or as meditations on policing, anarchy, community organization.The author argues that while these genres all offer escape, they also offer important political lessons.

The Walt Disney Film Archives. The Animated Movies 1921–1968
One of the most creative minds of the 20th century, Walt Disney built a unique and unrivaled imaginative universe.Like scarcely any other classics of cinema, his astonishing collection of animated cartoons revolutionized storytelling on screen and enchant to this day across geographies and generations. In this most expansive illustrated publication on Disney animation, some 1,500 images and essays by eminent Disney experts take us to the beating heart of the studio’s “Golden Age of Animation.” This landmark book traces Disney’s complete animation journey from the silent film era, through his first full-length feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) and the pioneering artistic experiment Fantasia (1940), right up to his last masterpieces Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966) and The Jungle Book (1967). With extensive research conducted through the historical collections of the Walt Disney Company, as well as private collections, editor Daniel Kothenschulte curates some of the most precious concept paintings and storyboards to reveal just how these animation masterpieces came to life.Masterful cel setups provide highly detailed illustrations of famous film scenes while rare pictures taken by Disney photographers and excerpts from story conferences between Walt and his staff bring a privileged insider’s view to the studio’s creative process. Each of the major animated features that were made during Walt’s lifetime—including Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi, Cinderella, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians—are given their own focus chapter, without forgetting less familiar gems such as the experimental short films of the Silly Symphonies series and underappreciated episodic musical films such as Make Mine Music and Melody Time, all of which receive the same meticulous research and attention.Many unfinished projects, among them the proposed sequels to the legendary musical Fantasia or a homage to Davy Crockett by painter Thomas Hart Benton, are also highlighted with rarely seen artworks, many of them previously unpublished.Throughout, contributions from leading Disney specialists detail the evolution of each respective film. Realizing the Disney style was a collective project and, as much as the master himself, The Walt Disney Film Archives acknowledges the outstanding animators and designers who influenced the style of the studio, among them Albert Hurter, Gustaf Tenggren, Kay Nielsen, Carl Barks, Mary Blair, Sylvia Holland, Tyrus Wong, Ken Anderson, Eyvind Earle, and Walt Peregoy.

Language and Gender in Children's Animated Films : Exploring Disney and Pixar
Disney and Pixar films are beloved by children and adults alike.However, what linguistic messages, both positive and negative, do these films send to children about gender roles?How do characters of different genders talk, and how are they talked about? And do patterns of representation change over time? Using an accessible mix of statistics and in-depth qualitative analysis, the authors bring their expertise to the study of this very popular media behemoth.Looking closely at five different language features – talkativeness, compliments, directives, insults, and apologies – the authors uncover the biases buried in scripted language, and explore how language is used to construct tropes of femininity, masculinity, and queerness.Working with a large body of films reveals wide-scale patterns that might fly under the radar when the films are viewed individually, as well as demonstrating how different linguistic tools and techniques can be used to better understand popular children's media.

Will Disney buy all the series and movies?
It is unlikely that Disney will buy all the series and movies, as there are many different production companies and studios creating content. Disney has made several high-profile acquisitions in the past, such as Marvel and Lucasfilm, but it is not feasible for them to buy every single series and movie. Additionally, antitrust laws and regulations may prevent Disney from acquiring too much of the market share in the entertainment industry.
