Uhm, highlights of my gripe against Pocohantas:
Disney side
~She's 18ish
~She falls in love with John Smith
~She can magically speak English(yes, I know it was so the movie wasn't beyond stupid, but still)
~She wears a snazzy deerskin dress and has long flowing hair
Historically
~She's 12-13
~She is fascinated by the Whites, but John Smith is in his 30s
~Communication between their cultures was super slow, often both cultures didn't have words/concepts for what the other talking about
~As a child she would have had a small patch of hair, and run around in a breech cloth and that's about it.
Most, yes, done so that Disney could actually show it. However, I lived in VA for years and had to learn that stupid story in every grade, I hate when they muck about with real history. Stories are fine, they're just a take on a specific message.
I've gone to look for myself, if I should return before I get back keep me here.
Nikko was here out of love for Fey. <3
