I didn't like Pocohantas because it was extremely divergent from the
truth of the situation.  John Smith's life was saved but the romantic
relationship hinted at by Disney was for naught.  Pocohantas married
another white guy, went to England, I believe had a few children and
died of diease.  Haven't read about John Smith in a long time but when I
was in 8th grade I went through and read all the biographies about both
of them in my library.

I had a similar problem when watching it...  It's a really great film
though.  I wish I'd seen it on the IMAX screen when I had the chance... 
It's kind of like well is the abstract images you see when you close
your eyes and let yourselves feel the images created with in you by the
music...

"Babylon 5 was last of the Babylon stations. There would never be
another. It changed the future and it changed us. It taught us that we
have to create the future or others will do it for us. It taught us
that we have to care for one other, because if we don't, who will? And
that true strength sometimes comes from the most unlikely of places.
Mostly though, I think it gave us hope that there can always be new
beginnings, even for people like us." - Susan Ivanova
