This is an excerpt from the Strawberry Shortcake video "World of Friends" from 2005.
The front of the DVD includes the title, a note about DIC and TCFHE, a big piracy warning, and an FBI mark.
When you start playing the DVD you have several warnings and the inappropriate video included here. As a result, it was necessary to re-author so that when the DVD is placed in the player it immediately begins playing the proper video instead of bothering her with repeated piracy warnings
Yes, that was needed. We all know 5 year olds like to download movies!

True that, I saw an FBI warning once before a video called "Gymboree Zoo Safari" and it freaked me out. And even when I got older I never wanted to see it again.

Ignoring the fact that kids watching Strawberry Shortcake probably can't read very well and don't even understand what downloading on the Internet is - isn't it pretty stupid to put these propaganda pieces on DVDs that you legally purchased?
I never see these warnings when I download movies from the Internet... Er, that is, IF I were to download a movie from the Internet. I don't. I just mean, if I did. If you did. You won't see that warning.

Everything about the video-piece is inappropriate for a movie marketed to children.
There is no law saying they have to put the video-piece on the end, only that sufficient warning be made about the penalties for copyright infringement.
It's modelled after adult-themed movies, with aggressive visuals and music, to make a point to adults about the moral choices they make.
It should either be left off children's movies entirely, or swapped for a version that is more appropriate to the content.

they don't have a choice. they have to put that on every video that was recently made. it's not innapropriate either.

It might not be scary to us but to very young children that combination of heavy sounds and quick framespeed can be interpreted as "scary". Just think of all the really ridiculous things you were scared of as a kid.

i see nothing inappropriate about it... it serves a purpose and makes a point.
