Racist Chihuahua movie aka Beverly Hills Chihuahua from Disney

Sigh. Please don’t go and spend your money on this - once again, it’s a Chihuahua with a Mexican accent who is descended from Aztecs??


God-awful trailer:



One of the comments on Youtube describes this best:


“Yes!! HOLLYWOOD sucks (mistakes in this film)… Incas were from Peru, and Aztecs were from Mexico and Chihuahuas were sacred dogs in Aztec mythology, they follow you in the underworld as protection.”


And when I originally saw this trailer 2 months ago (and thought it was a horrible joke)…here’s one of the best youtube response.

His description of the movie trailer: “I have never seen a movie trailer that has literally sent me into a fit of rage. (Seriously, this video isn’t really an exaggeration.) I can’t even watch this video because the audio from that trailer is so prevalent. ”


On a side note, they’ve now created new trailers that focus more on the humans/girl Chihuahua. . . maybe to take away the brutal racist sting of the first one? mmmm….

OMG! People like you are morons! NOTHING BUT! You didn’t even see the movie. I JUST SAW IT, AND YOU’RE JUST ASSUMING! Do people a favor and don’t make an ass out of yourself. Papi is a supporting role, who goes to look for Chloe. There is an Aztec part, but the dogs just talk about the Origins of Chihuahua’s. GIVE IT A CHANCE, BECAUSE IT’S A WONDERFUL FAMILY FLICK. A lot of kids laughed, and a lot of teens and parents to. And the graphics were awesome.

People like you are just the idiots of the world, trying to sound cool, when you sound like a git.

Watch it, and then tell me you disliked it. If you hate it, then that’s your own sad opinion.

So long,

Chihuahua-lover

OMG! People like you are morons! NOTHING BUT! You didn’t even graduate high school. I JUST DID, AND YOU’RE ABSOLUTELY WRONG! Do people a favor and go hang yourself in the closet. Beverly Hills Chihuahua is a horrific film, which speaks volumes about your intelligence level. There is an Aztec part, but my poor grammar and sentence structure can’t complete this thought. GIVE UP ON POSTING BLOG REPLIES, BECAUSE YOU’RE AN ABJECT FAILURE. A lot of kids laughed, and a lot of teens and parents too. And the graphics were awesome.

People like you are just the idiots of the world, trying to sound cool, when you sound like a git.

Watch it, and then tell me you liked it. If you like it, then you should be euthanized.

So long,

Chihuahua-lover-hater

Indeed Berry, I haven’t seen this movie nor will I.


However, saying that just because the graphics were pretty or that young children and adults liked the movie does not make it not racist - it makes it well-funded.


I have given other racist Disney movies a chance before and accepted that they are typically funny but heavily geared towards a white audience - can we discuss the name “Mu Shu” for the dog in Mulan? You may not think it’s racist to name the dog after a bastardized American (Chinese) dish, but alas.


And once again, to be fair, there is a lot of racism in Disney’s history - check out this article: http://www.cracked.com/article_15677_9-most-racist-disney-characters.html


Once again, just for good measure - JUST BECAUSE THE CROWD LIKES IT DOESN’T MAKE IT UNRACIST. Check out the history of the South before the Civil War. Merci.
