{"product_id":"enviro-toons-deidre-m-pike-9780786465927","title":"Enviro-Toons: Green Themes in Animated Cinema and Television","description":"\u003cp\u003e This book takes an ecrocritical approach to analytical readings of animated feature films, short subjects and television shows. Beginning with the \"simply subversive\" environmental messages in the \u003ci\u003eFelix the Cat\u003c\/i\u003e cartoons of the 1920s, the author examines \"green\" themes in such popular animated film efforts as \u003ci\u003eBambi\u003c\/i\u003e (1942), \u003ci\u003eThe Simpsons Movie\u003c\/i\u003e (2007), \u003ci\u003eWall-E\u003c\/i\u003e (2008) and \u003ci\u003eHappy Feet\u003c\/i\u003e (2008), as well as James Cameron's live action\/animation blockbuster \u003ci\u003eAvatar\u003c\/i\u003e (2009). The discussion extends beyond American films to include the works of Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, including the Oscar-winning \u003ci\u003eSpirited Away\u003c\/i\u003e (2002). Also evaluated for their pro-ecological content are the television cartoon series \u003ci\u003eSouth Park\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eFuturama\u003c\/i\u003e. The appendix provides a list of film and television titles honored with the Environmental Media Award for Animation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deidre M.
