| − | |The film begins with the "evolution" of the minions, which flies in the face of the creationist truth. The film shows the minions evolving from single cell organisms in the ocean, suggesting that God does not exist. This film also glorifies criminality. Not to mention it seems to sympathize with a family that has robbed a bank, an action which is congruent with the liberal idea of not working hard for wealth. | + | |This spinoff prequel to the ''Despicable Me'' films begins with the "evolution" of the minions, which flies in the face of the creationist truth.

| − | |This feminist story follows a highly fictionalized account of the life of [[Native American]] [[Pocahontas]] with an environmental message; and the Native American’s view against English settlers is similar to Howard Zinn's revisionist history textbook ''A People's History of the United States'', which would enter public knowledge and provided to universities, colleges, and high schools across America two years later (see ''Good Will Hunting''). The titular character enters what is implied to be an unfaithful relationship with John Smith over fellow Native American Kokoum, and her decision is treated in a comparatively positive light; while the English settlers are vilified simply for establishing the early American colonies to find Jamestown, and John Ratcliffe in particular was demonized as having the motive of trying to establish a gold mine and being greedy, despite gold never being the motive for Ratcliffe, which could be interpreted as a dig against capitalism. | + | |This feminist story follows a highly fictionalized account of the life of [[Native American]] [[Pocahontas]] with an environmental message; and the Native American’s view against English settlers is similar to Howard Zinn's revisionist history textbook ''A People's History of the United States'', which would enter public knowledge and provided to universities, colleges, and high schools across America two years later (see ''Good Will Hunting'').

| | Following the Best Picture nomination of ''Beauty and the Beast'' at the 64th Academy Awards and its subsequent loss in March 1992, then-studio chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg opted to produce another animated sweeping romantic epic in hopes of achieving a cinematic masterpiece status and replicating another Best Picture nomination, even if he intended to distort history and add both a love story and environmental themes. In fact, many people at Disney had high hopes for ''Pocahontas'', while deeming the concept of another film in production, ''The Lion King'' as experimental. To their surprise, ''The Lion King'' became one of the greatest animated motion pictures of all time, while ''Pocahontas'' received mixed critical reviews and below-than-expected box office receipts. | | Following the Best Picture nomination of ''Beauty and the Beast'' at the 64th Academy Awards and its subsequent loss in March 1992, then-studio chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg opted to produce another animated sweeping romantic epic in hopes of achieving a cinematic masterpiece status and replicating another Best Picture nomination, even if he intended to distort history and add both a love story and environmental themes.
