    Talk about old original movies..I saw they were showing the original "Bambi" on a local channel here a few nights ago. I anxiously awaited the time and had the recorder all set.

    It was a No Show!..I think they do that to make you watch their channel (Maybe they were doing a Neilson report that night) and had no intentions of showing the movie. I was so disappointed!

    Snoozy...

    They are not really a religion so they don't have that magical something that touches people's spirits so intensely.

    How can you have a sequel to Snow White and Cinderella when the characters are supposed to live happily ever after at the end of the first movie?

    Easy answer. Look at how many times Popeye, Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, etc. have been blasted into oblivion and still manage to be on next Saturday's cartoon programs.

    They don't tell 5 years old kids that unless they worship Mickey Mouse, that they'll die at Armageddon..............

    Most park theme park workers are gay. Rumour has it that they have been financing racy films and soft porn in another division. A Christian objected to it and died in a plane crash. I believe that most on Disney's board are non-Christians and are from the church of money.

    Sounds like a load of crap to me. I read most of that link. Interesting stuff, much of which I've discussed with friends before. The killing off of either both parents or the mom in every movie bothers me. My Little Mermaid video cover had the penis on it. Amusing but doens't bother me in the least.

    They seem to have a rigidly PC corporate culture, and it's reflected in their products. I remember a moment in Aladdin where Jasmine's father (can't remember his name) says something like "Praise Allah" and the only thing that was missing was on-screen instructions for parents to pause the movie so that they can cheerfully explain to their kids that Muslims refer to God as Allah isn't that neat little Susie?

    Remember the Simpsons episode where it said that the guy who made Itchy and Scratchy also made "Nazi Supermen are Our Superiors?"

    Since most Simpsons jokes like that are based on real things, did Disney make a movie like that?

    A portion:

    When this author spoke to the co-author’s deeper Illuminati alters about Disney, their reaction was that Disney had been described to them when they were in the Illuminati as "a syndicate within a syndicate." They said that while in the Illuminati, they were aware that Disneyland had their own government, their own rules and their own police force. They were a crime syndicate within a syndicate. What these Illuminati alters casually mentioned, was verified by this author the hard way through research. One Disneyland Security Supervisor said, "There is no Constitution at Disneyland. We have our own laws." Once, when Walt Disney got miffed at a Hollywood policeman, Walt said, "I’ll have your badge." If Disney guards decide to, they will get very rough physically with people, and assault them in any fashion they see fit. The people they detain are often thrown into tiny cells at Disneyland where they are kept without benefit of a phone call, without benefit of a toilet or water. The judicial system turns a blind eye to whatever Disney police do. Many people pay Disney to get their children out of a Disney cell, and never get due process of any law.

    This type of treatment has gone on for decades, and is almost a daily occurrence at Disneyland. The Anaheim Police force is very chummy with the Disney private police force. Also at one point, the Burbank Chief of Police was the brother-in-law to Disney’s Chief of Security. Recently, when a couple filed a wrongful death suit against the Magic Kingdom of Disney in Florida, the state of Florida surprisingly has appeared to have backed off from their traditional behavior of protecting Disney’s sovereignty. An article on the suit said, ""there is evidence of some nervousness with Disney’s relative autonomy."" (San Francisco Chronicle, article "Mickey’s Dark Side" Oct. 1, ‘96, p. C6) An attorney in the case said, "Disney World’s security people aren’t just cops, they are bad ones. I don’t think there is any corporation that has ever had the perceived power that Disney has." Richard Foglesong, a professor of politics at Rollins College in Winter Park stated, "Because Disney World controls so much of its corporate and municipal universe, it can’t help but act in a heavy-handed manner in order to ferociously protect its self-interest. They have immunity from state and local land use law. They can build a nuclear plant, distribute alcohol. They have powers local communities don’t have. Do they abuse it? In my opinion, yes." In line with Disney’s previous dictatorial policies on their properties, Disney’s new city called Celebration will not have any elected government.

    Since the city is unincorporated (a neat Disney trick) the mayor is appointed by Disney. Several Disney "quasi-government’" bodies control citizens of the city. For instance, the Celebration Residential Owners Association, which participates in binding all residents to a Declaration of Covenants, a legal binder of rules that residents must live by. Of course the Declaration of Covenants was written by Disney. These rules include such nit picky things as, no more than two people can sleep in the same bedroom, no pickup trucks can be parked in front of homes, and if Disney officials don’t like your cat or dog they can forcibly remove the animal from your home. Disney Corp. has perpetrated numerous deceptions on the residents, incl. shoddy work on their homes, and operating their ""public"" school with Disney cronies. Still, the residents that have moved into Celebration are glowing with praise for the town in spite of the fact that the city is totally run by Big Brother Disney Corp. Of course those who don’t love it, soon leave. So much for the American tradition of self-government.

    Please, if this topic does not interest you, I can respect that. Yet please extend the same courtesy to those whom it does.

    Sincerely, sKally
