The real threat to the Polynesian culture is the Disney-fication version takes over the ancient, authentic culture.  The movie Moana is going to be seductively gorgeous, and it is programmed to kick off the fall equinox season, culminating in the winter solstice week long celebration to the coming of spring. Pavlovian dog programming has been used by capitalist and religious mob manipulation powers so the emotions are controlled by different bells until frenzied uncontrolled frothing occurs and the eyes roll backwards. And that is what is called the jew god holy-days.  Why the Disney animators didn't just scan the Rock and cartoon him into a worthy Maui only shows the haole (stranger) perception of the kapu. The extremely racist portrayal as a fat Samoan brudda really shows cultural ignorance because he has to be the clown and look like a clown. Samoans only started getting obese because of the introduction of sugar water soda pop and high fat foods like Spam.
