Do you mean cartoons or films made by Disney?

Basil The Great Mouse Detective is quite violent, for a cartoon. Watch the scene with Rattigan and Basil inside Big Ben, and imagine that on a human v human scale, and it's quite terrifying for a small child; especially with the madness you can see in Rattigan's eyes.

A tip from a Disney fan (me): "You can tell when a Disney film will be violent, or a bit more 'adult' or strange - it's always released on Touchstone Pictures". Nightmare Before Christmas isn't violent, but it's one of the more well-known examples of a Touchstone release. As a subsidiary company of Walt Disney Pictures, I'm sure you could get away with looking at films like Armageddon, Apocalypto, Con Air, Enemy of the State and [films I've not seen] Dark Water and King Arthur. There's a mountain of films really on Touchstone that are 'violent' - look through all the Jerry Bruckheimer films released on it - Pearl Harbour is one that Disney likes to use in its Studio Backlot Tour, and that's a Touchstone release.

I think you get the idea. =]

You're changing your mind now?! Risky business with less than 24 hours to go lol.
I'm talking about the representations of Belle, Snow White and Ariel, I found that my problem was I was looking at too much secondary info (damn internet) that wasn't relevant to anything, plus I didn't put much theory in it. Think I've got it sorted now though.
Violence on TV and games is a good one though, especially if you do psychology and can apply the theories linked to how it affects kids etc.

I'm doing the same exam as you too, but I'm doing world cinema. Bad choice lol.

Hmm i'd say Lion King maybe as one of the darkest animation they did. Cant really think of any films that were particularly violent by Disney though!
