For example, when Bradley Cooper’s character works out a deal with the Officers so that they wouldn’t have to stay in jail over the weekend. He volunteered the boys to be used as a demonstration for the use of taser guns on criminals. The physical abuse and the situation is hilarious, but may be geared more to the present times.

The Hangover chose to use physical abuse to their advantage, where as Coming to America left went for a more situational, verbal approach.

Aside the crazy drum solo’s, the loud tubas and yelling coaches, the movie is jam-packed with messages. For example, throughout the entire movie, they repeat their slogan, which is “One Band!

I think the documentary would be better if he pinpointed a reason. The section of the documentary when he took the two young males who were victims of the Columbine shooting to the CEO’s of Kmart was a good argument. When he interviewed Charlton Hesston, the head of the NRA, he really pushed his buttons and even made Charlton walk away. The Columbine Shooting was un-debatably a tragic event. But in my opinion, it could have been prevented.

CEO’s are an embodiment of their corporate brand. (Argenti, 2013, p.54) At the time of the Disney’s America project, the CEO of Disney was Michael Eisner. Eisner admitted to these missteps in his 1998 memoir entitled Work in Progress. From the naming of the project “Disney’s America”, which led to the perception that Disney owned American history, to the proximity to the Manassas Battlefield Park, the project began doomed to failure.
