Playtime Comments : [TED] How movies teach manhood | Colin Stokes

St*************:

4:40 kung fu panda was SO about self realization and self worth and so was Shrek

Ja********:

3:05 Leia does NOT just wait around. She talks back to the government and takes charge of the escape because the guys quickly become inept.

Hu*****************:

5:31 My brain just got invaded by wonderful flash backs

Ca*************:

5:26 Define your meaning of war. To me it's what we do when we're bored

Ke***:

Second difference(1:34) between Wizard of Oz and Star Wars is that when three man get to princess Leia they don’t know how to get out, she’s the one who gets them out

Ph*********:

5:25 Oh yeah, Hermione Granger, she is my favourite female character :)

Nu**********:

10:18 Spirited Away! This movie is so good I decided to name my daughter after the protagonist who is a cute little girl with immense courage.
I really suggest you watch it. I mean when I have a daughter some 10 years from now.

br********:

He didn't speak about her at all but showing Chihiro is such a fantastic example. She navigates a difficult and foreign world with hard work, bravery and kindness and Haku supports her as best he can without expecting or wanting anything from her.

Am*:

I feel like magical girl animes do a great job at showing female heroes without villainizing traditional feminitiy whatsoever

El***:

Loving the series “avatar the last air bender” it teaches many things and has equal male and female characters who are both good an evil

Pe****:

When I was little I used to think that I was supposed to be a boy because I related to all the main characters and viewed myself as a main character.

Th*************:

Trying to focus on what he’s saying, but I just can’t stop staring at his mic

Ar************:

Anime movies hv guys who respect their women and fight side by side along with them in their causes , like in Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Ponyo and Kiki's Delivery Service.

id*******:

Remember that Obi-Wan and Glinda were both master manipulators who guided their hapless underlings into risking their lives for a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises!

Dz***********:

I grew up watching harry potter. And I really liked Harry n Hermione's character, especially Hermione. I wanted to be like her, when I was a child back then.. She's so smart, confident, independent n can befriend with boys very well. And as a child, she motivated me to read more n more, thats why I grew fond of reading books. I think thats a good idea since movie can motivate me to build good habit :)

pr**************:

my favorite movie is inside out bc it shows how riley "a girl" that has 5 emotions that are portayed as males and females, it didn't matter and i never looked at the gender, although her parents had their emotions following their genders, that movie was so exceptional and i loved how it didn't only focus on riley as a girl having only girl emotions, it also opened out eyes on the fact that it doesn't matter

Ad**********:

The Last Of Us is the 1st thing that comes to my mind. Ellie is easily one of my favorite characters and Tess is amazing too. What I love the most about the way The Last Of Us deals with creating a great female character, is the fact that they do not over do it with how they write their characters. Their intention is not to make a great female character, they are trying to make a great Character. I also adored the moment, where they showed the struggles Ellie goes through as someone with a weaker and smaller body, specially in the Winter Chapter, where she struggles to take down large men and has to stab them with her pocket knife. I wish there were more characters like her, instead of forced characters like Captain Marvel.

Zo***********:

I'm a simple girl - I see Spirited Away, I click.

ma***********:

Reminds me of Thors' phrase, "A true warrior doesn't need a weapon"

DD*******:

The movie Parasite shows a whole family as a team. Mother, father, son, daughter... it was very well done

Ma*************:

The sentence took my heart when he said "when you defeat the villain you get a reward that's a woman"

Ma********:

It’s called cheap and unthought out story creation
The over usage of tropes basically
Also Shojo and Shonen Anime are a thing

RO**:

Sometimes fiction does a better job portraying reality than reality does. That's why I love anime. :,D Some of the most impactful, beautiful stories I've ever witnessed were formed in Japan.

Sn*****:

When movies make strong female characters, somehow they also strip them of their feminine traits. Because apparently you can only be strong if you're masculine. Strong women aren't just those who fight bad guys, but those who have a kind and warm heart- the mothers, the nurses, the grandmas.

G*:

I like how he explains how his daughter likes Glinda and Obi-Wan towards the end. It's not so much the gender of the main characters when kids watch... I believe it's so much more than that.
Kids are smart and pick up on characteristics, qualities and behaviours--Glinda and Obi-wan were both clever, caring and courageous. Movie nights for children, at least for me in the future, should have a healthy mix of quality movies containing strong characters of both genders.
Not only this, parents should also have healthy discussions with the children about what they just saw... there should always be taught media awareness and critical thinking!

Ez***:

Was on board till he brought up the 1/5 stat, there are far more variables in that study then just “1/5 of all women...”

Oc************:

Some films more people should watch are: Men Don't Tell, Abused by my Girlfriend, She Stolen my Voice and Silent Night, Deadly Night (These one has an abusive nun.)

He*************:

"Stand by their sisters and fight with the women."

FROZEN: yes!

ki************:

Just want to put it out there Big hero 6 was totally underrated. Male protagonist tries to do the classic go it alone good vs evil, loses his way a multiracial male and female group of friends help him deal with grief and accept support to over come the bad guy. no female love interest just strong female characters

Je*********:

I thought Dorothy won by accidentally murdering 2 mean women. Making friends?

Wi**********:

Saw Chihiro in the thumbnail -
Immediately watched the video.

Ch******************:

I think that men and woman should be taught how to be a good person regardless of what their gender is.

Children should have good role models that are both male and female, but they should be able to relate to both.

Ch********:

Can I just say that Star Wars does teach teamwork and cooperation with women? Princess Leia is a leader of the Rebellion along with Mon Mothma. Princess Leia got herself, Luke, Han, and Chewbacca into the trash compactor. She gave Han, Luke, and Chewbacca medals of honor because of their courage and heroism, which is something that is done in our society. Padme from the prequels is a leader who needed some protection like all politicians do, but on Geonosis she was able to get out of her chains and climb up to the top of the pillar so she hopefully would not be killed. Luke does not just go off to join an army and overthrow the government (which is a tyrannical one by the way), he learns to work with Han Solo, who he was skeptical about working with in the beginning. Moral of the story: make sure you actually analyze the story and the characters before you use them to prove a point.

id*******:

When people STOP looking at movie for answering and start treating them as the frivolous pastime that they truly are, the world will become a much better & safer place.

BL***:

I thought he was gonna say something amazing about the movie SPIRITED AWAY .WHAT A BUZZKILL!!

Da**********:

"Why is is that in the movies there's always a man trying to save the woman?"
30 seconds later
"A real man should be a man that wants to protect women from abuse"

This man suffers from sever cognitive dissonance

Id*********:

Every villain is the hero of his own story.

Sp*********:

You should totally let your son watch Gravity falls! It's one of the best animated shows out there and it teaches the exact lesson, that you talked about and that the other shows and movies fail to teach.


(Spoiler alert:)
This guy named Dipper falls for a girl, that seems perfect to him, but when she finds out, she rejects him, cause she's too old for him. Even though she does it in the coolest way possible, Dipper is pretty hurt by that, but in the end he learns how to deal with it and they become friends for life, who can accomplish amazing things together. At the end of the series Dipper tells this powerful line to Gideon - another character who falls for Dipper's sister, but unlike Dipper he tries to force his way to love. Dipper says " Gideon listen to me. If I've learned anything this summer, it's that you can't force someone to love you. The best you can do is try to by someone worthy of loving."

dr**********:

As I watched this, I was trying to think of good male role models in my favorite movies and Ashitaka from Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke immediately came to mind.

He's a selfless, humble, and compassionate peacemaker, as well as strong, brave, and a leader. He isn't afraid to show his emotions of fear or sadness, as he openly cries when he finds out there's no cure for his curse and that he's going to die. He doesn't complain, sulk, or whine about it when he realizes it's not something he can prevent, but continues to work for a good cause though it pits everyone against him, he won't personally get anything out of it, and his efforts are unrecognized or mocked- because it's simply the right thing to do.

He helps other people, even saving the lives of total strangers and his enemies who betrayed and tried to kill him, without looking for reward or thanks. When he is thanked, he accepts it humbly and says that it was what anyone would have done. He's thankful for everything he has and never once complains, even when he loses everything but the clothes on his back and is matter-of-factly told that he's going to die a slow and painful death.

Despite all this, he's still human and you can see his sadness, fear, and anger throughout the story.

I feel pretty grateful that my dad introduced me to this movie and that I had Ashitaka as a role model when I was little. Even now, he continues to be a role model for me, though I'm not a man. He always represented to me what all people should be, not just men.




Edit: Edited because Youtube keeps adding double spaces whenever I write paragraphs.. -_-

Dr*****:

This has got to be the worst take on Princess Leia, the woman who:
Smuggled the Death Star plans at the risk of her own life
Failed to give up the rebel location/ Death star plans even when under torture (Heavily implied in film from torture droid)
Took charge of her own rescue and the most competent member the second she was freed from her cell
Coordinated the plan on the Death Star

And that's just ANH, she did not just "Sit around", you give her far too little credit and take away her value as a strong female role model!
