Ok, I thought maybe I should find out who the Longriders are because maybe they had a point. I think they are just a bunch of kooks. I'm not even sure they are real. Disney? trying to make money? NO!
Ya mean Peter Pan's not real?
"The Long Riders' Guild A Word from the Founders
Disney's Dilemma
by
Basha and CuChullaine O'Reilly
No two men could be less alike than Walt Disney and Frank Hopkins.
The former was a smiling man of vision and integrity.
The latter was a stone-faced predator of the truth."
[hmm, I dunno, which one is which again?]
"Sadly, the very man we grew up trusting, Walt Disney, is being used to promote the historical fraud named Frank Hopkins. In the past we cherished films with Disney's names attached to them. Many of us now shudder at the falsity of the newest film about to be released by the movie studio that sports Walt Disney's name. Our anxiety is anchored in the realization that the new Disney film entitled "Hidalgo" will not only enshrine a villain disguised as a hero, when it reaches the world market its perverse historical message will last forever."
[I'm shuddering right now just thinking about it.its a plot, a plot to take over the world I tell you!]
"However the frightening message coming through right now from the Disney studio seems to be all too clear.Money is more important than truth in Hollywood."
[and they just figured that out all by themselves eh?.]
A chill wind is blowing across the horse world. A message is being sent with the trailer for "Hidalgo." Hollywood is telling us that they can and will dictate the truth. This is ironic to those of us who are Long Riders, because many of our lives are saddle-borne testaments to the horseback adventures inspired by mounted men and women in movies.
[you mean like the black stallion and national velvet and such? ]
These are not carefree times. And this unworthy and inaccurate film called "Hidalgo" will only further inflame an already-divided world by pandering to falsehood and global unrest. Already the brotherhood of man is in danger of being forgotten, first between individuals and second between nations.
this conman called Hopkins and his screenplay are jeopardizing the trust of the world.
Stop calling this movie true!
Ok, it's fake already! Now go get me some popcorn
Raised in suburbia, I've always had the fever to "Go West," but here I am still in Ohio... I did get some horses though! Be prepared to find entries with long athropomorphic ramblings about what my horses are doing and thinking, and the crazy things they have me doing to keep them in my life--Oh yeah, there's some other junk here too.
