This past weekend I scored a borrowed bootleg copy (so you all don’t start saying how I’m helping the illegal industry) of the Disney multi-million dollar movie Beverly Hills Chihuahua. I waited till my toddler was napping and only let my 11 year old watch it with me cuz she’s had some good home training and I know she would roll her eyes with me when appropriate, and roll our eyes we did.
The premise of the movie is effed up enough. La Macha has mentioned the whole dog as Latino problem, and no matter how many Latino actors are in the this animated flick, nothing justifies the stereotypes that were used in this film.
Warning if you haven’t seen the movie I will give away the whole damn thing. You shouldn’t see the movie anyway so just click after the jump anyway.
