http://pocahontas.morenus.org/smith.html This is Captain John Smith. He was portrayed in his own journal as a great leader and one who should be remembered. While I don't doubt that, he seems quite bias throughout the journal. In this picture he matches the National Geographic video and looks completely different from anything that Disney creates.

ReplyDeleteI like the Disney/Real comparison. That really does look like bias between what he really looked like and how Disney portrays him. He really looks different (and a lot younger) Disney sure loves sucking up to their audiences.
It's very obvious that Disney is trying to reach an audience! Smith is portrayed as a handsome guy and really, he was just a bearded man who knew how to talk himself up. JBuss is totally right in saying how Disney sucks up to their audience.
ReplyDeleteVery true...
