Agreed
I was watching Spirit with my toddler niece and I truly cannot fathom the shitstorm conservatives would create if this movie were released today.
The shot (2008)
Spirit and Rain (2019)
And a banger soundtrack
cannot believe there are people who aren't familiar with the 2002 movie Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. it's not remembered as one of the animated classics of the early 00s because it's so different than other beloved movies - no talking animals, no fantasy settings, limited comedic elements - but my god did it shine in so many other ways. arguably some of the best 2D animation ever created, outstanding soundtrack, an hour and a half of pure anti-imperialism and anti-colonialism in a kid friendly story about horseys.

I need to find this movie it was the only thing I’d watch when I was 10; still listen to the music sometimes; I want to watch it... where’S MY VHS PLAYER??!!
Rewatched “Sprit: Stallion of the Cimarron” for the hundredth time and, like, why don’t people talk about this movie more??? Like it came out only a year after Shrek and that movie has a shit ton of sequels and yet no one ever talks about Spirit??? Like,
(1) It doesn’t glorify or romanticize colonialism. It is some real-ass shit.
(2) It has amazing art.
(3) The main human character is Native American.
(4) It doesn’t stereotype or generalize or dehumanize Native Americans.
(5) It’s about horses!!!!
If you haven’t seen or even heard of this movie, drop everything right the fuck now and go watch. NOW. GO. GO. GO. It’s just an all-around good movie that will give you so many feels.
My most favorite anime movie of horses ❤️
Spirit - James Baxter ?
I revive from my grave for this because holy crap I feel so understood by this meme
Ps: If you know/follow me and see this, you totally didn't <3
lalallala art trend lalalala
Does anyone remember in Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron the scene where a horse collapses from exhaustion during the train sequence? I swear I saw it as a child but it seems to be one of those things where some people have seen it and some haven’t. And nobody seems to have a clip

bonus:
I love when artists take an art meme and put their own lil spin on it.
Original: Three random nostalgic characters stuck on a road trip together looking absolutely done with life and each other.
Charcoal's Take: Three random nostalgic characters fearing for their lives in an impending car crash as they wrestle with new revelations like "What do you mean humans can come in different skin and ear sizes?", "How am I the most responsible person in this group?", and "Hyaaaaaah?!"
So I decided to try this because the image was very funny to me. I tried to draw them true to the style of their respective media!
A hylian, a horse, and a human-turtle mutant step into a car. Two of them don’t know what an automobile is and the one who does can’t drive.

The story that I want to tell you cannot be found in a book. They say the history of the West was written from the saddle of a horse, but it’s never been told from the heart of one, not ‘til now.
I had been waiting so long to run free, but that goodbye was harder than I ever imagined. I’ll never forget that boy, and how we won back our freedom together.

Yep. That's why I never bothered with that crap-excuse of a series and movie sequel. Dreamworks had done us Spirit fans dirtier than Warner Bros. did with Space Jam: A New Legacy.
When you see yet another monoracial nonwhite character get replaced by a racially ambiguous light skinned actor/design:
When a sequel chooses to be a stereotypical Girl and her Horse story instead of following up on the OG themes of freedom and dangers of colonization:
When people complain about diversity in current media yet remain silent when a crap sequel erases the few positive representations of Native Americans:
