Little Mermaid and still having the ability to look past the films flaws is a
problem that these students have, and a problem for educators everywhere.
I do not understand the critical turn in the articles conclusion against the
students who chose to keep enjoying a childrens film for its music, romance,
and happy ending. I especially find the dismissive attitude towards students
who could both be critical and still enjoy the film, as shown through
condescending statements such as by claiming that they could suspend
their analytical minds, they could safely retreat to their former response of
the film (18), to be appalling. In the end, the article reads like Sun and
Scharrer themselves are unable to enjoy such films at face value, and
therefore critique those who still can, and wish to convince all educators to
find such an ability as unnecessary and unwanted as the authors of Staying
True to Disney do.
