1. Ain't that the truth!!!

Look at what Disney did with Pooh...

Classic Pooh


Disney Pooh


...head's a little bigger; tummy's a little fatter, and always slack-jawed...always

[YOY]

2. The worst was "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"

A story of injustice, racist, rape, and murder...DISNEY STYLE!!! (Only a toned down version of the first of those 4 WITHOUT THE LAST 3!!!)

I am so hoping that Victor Hugo molesting bastard who wrote that script will do "The Man Who Laughs" someday...I really want to see that Disnified...

3. And worse, what they did to Pixar...Thank God, for a limited time only...

[Dhee]

4. Disney assimilates MarvelI

I am so dreading this, has it been made all official yet? 
What's next?  Wolverine vs Mickey?

6. Welcome to DU!

:toast::hi:

You have to know that a "meet-up" of characters is as inevitable as it is terrifying. Perhaps clever and sardonic web artists will beat them to it, with "scenes we'd like to see" :D

5. They seriously effed up the Queen Mary.

Used be a tour of a really cool old ship with a lot of history, and then Disney turned it into an "attraction". They won't let you use your own imagination; they replaced the story-teller guide whose chilling tales of hauntings could make your skin crawl with loud noises, holographs, and actors trying to pretend this is the first time they've seen that shit.

8. The Disney vermon has to be one of the worst things

that ever happened to the modern culture.

I never liked anything Disney from the time a was 5.

9. Well the hentai toons should be interesting.

Spiderman stripping for Tron. :rofl:

10. I'm not optimistic. I'm glad I stopped collecting comics many years ago

Because the first time Mickey Mouse wound up on my X-Men cover I'd have to go all Wolverine on their asses. Donald Duck will replace Stan Lee for cameos in Marvel movies. I just know it. SNKIT!!!

11. I'm speculating here, but they might just make the move to digital.

Stay with me here.

For a couple of months I've read developments of a new 10" touch screen device (sort of an iPod Max) being developed by Apple. Apple has made no announcements on such a device, but everybody else says it's coming. This device will be a sort of hybrid media player, e-book reader, photo editor, web surfer and basic take along computer much like the small netbooks fill now, using some sort of hybrid of their Mac OS and the iPhone OS. Not quite a full notebook computer, but not nearly as limited as a poor performing netbook. Toshiba has just announced their 6" touch screen device this weekend with Windows Mobile Pro for an OS, so this appears to be a category ready to take off.

Apple has had a very cozy relationship with Disney ever since they made a deal with Pixar, which Steve Jobs is still involved with and still on Disney's board. Disney's cartoons and films were the first ones to be available on the iTunes store, and Pixar movies arrive on it a couple of days before the DVD release.

What to put on it? Apple has been working on a project called "Cocktail" to be launched this week, being pretty much music centric. They're calling it a digital album of sorts. With interactivity, band photos, videos, liner notes, much more immersive than the standard PDF versions of album art being sold for download now. The rumor is that the Beatles catalog will finally be on iTunes in this new Cocktail format.

Amazon's Kindle is popular, but it's in black and white. Apple's device will be in color, and probably not e-paper, but that's where this new thing can shine. With the possibilities made with Cocktail, e-magazine formatting and subscriptions would be just an easy jump. Then there's digital comic books. Now they're relegated to PDF frames, but with this new flip page/touch here for more stuff (backstory?) Cocktail format and the vibrant color screen, those comics will jump off the screen and be much more immersive than ever. It's also much larger than an iPhone so comic artists can tell the story they want without the screen size problems.

Disney could be gearing Marvel up for a digital launch of X-Men, Spiderman, Hulk or whoever for this upcoming device from Apple.
Of course I could be dreaming too.
