LaFou, I'm afraid I've been thinking.
A terrible past time
I know.
Best. Line. Ever in a Disney song.

It's not the Phil Collins songs that bother me (they only did it for Tarzans AFAIK). What gets me are those damn Randy Newman (and the Newman family b/c it's not just one of them) songs. THEY SUCK! They ruined the entire "Cars" soundtrack, the end of WALL-E, and many other recent Disney movies.
They need to stop.

OMG, yes!!!
ETA: I liked the collaboration in Monsters, Inc. I thought Sully and Mike's version at the end was cute. But am I wrong for STILL wanting to see the play "Put That Thing Back Where It Came From Or So Help Me?" (so help me, so help me, and cut!)

I don't think Disney knows how to depict black people in one of their movies because there are so many different ways black people can be depicted. There is no one way to tell a story using us. I think the answer to that would be to simply have other animated movies with black people. There are hundreds (I think) of Disney films and other animated movie companies who have made films based on whites so there pretty much is no one way white people have been depicted other than through using old european ways of life. (english, french, etc.) So, if one segment of the black population feels that this movie doesn't capture what they would want blacks to be characterized as, then perhaps the next movie made based on us could reflect their preferred characterization. The more movies that are made, the more choices we will have.

Yes, you are *so* wrong....
Buy either the Tape or the DVD. That comes with the play in it (It's set after the events of the movie with Produced, Directed, starring, etc. etc. by Mike.)
See

the Disk 2 extras.
