Disney General

If only I could go back in time and tell John Lasseter to keep his hands to himself.

@DanielOrange
Yeah I might tell him, think about what you are doing. Do you realize you are such a beloved figure in animation history. Will you seriously tarnish that for your lusts? Is it worth all the trouble.

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Then again, he helped make that “Luck” movie after his departure and it got mixed reviews.

I swear, someone at Disney got this animation inspired by Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure:

@DanielOrange
I think that was suppose to be a parody of John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and other tough cowboys in western films.

Mei’s “stir the porridge” dance in “Turning Red” was originally part of an exercise routine her mom had her perform to calm down and keep the panda under control, which would’ve been a brick joke.

@Dr_Osaka
Yes that’s what I’m thinking.

Near the very beginning of “The Rescuers”, Madame Medusa can actually be seen driving a large red sports car to New York City Airport, not unlike the one driven by Cruella DeVil. Originally, the villain of The Rescuers was actually indeed going to be Cruella DeVil! So in fact, that car doesn’t just look like Cruella’s, that car is Cruella’s.

I bet Disney would help the movie industry by releasing the three “lost” Pixar movies in theaters.

IDK, just a thought I had because apparently the strike’s still going on, movies are getting removed from their schedules, and I’m worried my theater might shut down pretty soon.

@DanielOrange
Lost movies? Color me interested.

@DanielOrange
I would certainly like to see them bring back Gigantic.

They spent so much time building it up and then just canceling it, and I love the Jack and the Beanstalk story; I grew up with the Mickey Mouse version from Fun & Fancy Free.

@Dr_Osaka
I don’t think that was a pixar movie

People complaining about how “Turning Red” was being a little unkind to one of Mei’s aunts, Lily, who was basically the “Meg from Family Guy”. Like telling her to stop talking when she complained about her fur being itchy after they all became pandas? Well, to be fair, they were in the middle of pulling a FIFTY-TON RED PANDA into the ritual circle with only moments of the red moon left (to save her) and so there wasn’t time to whine about it.

@northern haste
You’re right, it wasn’t. It was from Disney. Or, WOULD have been from Disney.

Honestly, I’m surprised in this day and age, people are STILL mistaking every CGI movie as a Pixar movie, even from Dreamworks, Illumination, Warner Bros… even Disney’s own movies like “Wreck-It Ralph” were mistaken for Pixar. Do people still not pay attention to logos in the trailers or posters?!

Anyone remember the lost Mickey episode?

Two Mickey Mouse related things I wanted to talk about:
First is I just recently finished Illusion Island,

And I enjoyed it alot; it’s basically Rayman Legends but with Mickey and Friends, the platforming is a lot of fun, animation looks good, there is a bunch of references to classic Mickey cartoons, music sounds amazing, and surprisingly does offer quite the challenges (You can’t attack enemies so all you can do is just avoid getting hit).

And the second was I watched Steamboat Silly

I also really enjoyed this, the new Mickey Mouse cartoons are some of the best to come out in years, Chris Diamantopoulos is such a hilarious voice for Mickey, and this episode in particular is certainly a nice homage to Mickey over the years. Sad to see this series end, but I’m glad it went out on a high note.

@Dr_Osaka
The crossover everybody has waited for has finally happened.

Unpopular opinion: Disney kind of sucks these days.

They’ve been sucking since they’ve started even breathing air.

Reminder that Walt was one of the biggest scumbags to ever work in Hollywood.

My two favorite Disney characters are [the] ones that don’t get any attention.
Horace Horsecollar and the Big Bad Wolf

@Dr_Osaka
That game looks good, I might get it.

I think the old obscure game “Mickey Mania” deserves an HD remake.

I hear “Gargoyles” (Sega Genesis) is getting a remake.

@Beau Skunky
Loved Mickey Mania, I played it all the time on my Sega Genesis. I also loved playing World of Illusion Starring Mickey & Donald; Disney use to have a lot of great games, and I’m still sad Disney Infinity got canceled.

It’s funny how even Disney’s OWN media takes potshots at THEIR own company. Like the whole “you can’t marry a man you just met” in Frozen and for good reason, as Anna finds out, and in the aforementioned junior novel for “Ralph Breaks the Internet” the conversation between Vanellope and Eeyore (when she gets to “Oh My Disney”) is changed, where she wonders if there’s anything “this Disney” doesn’t own, Eeyore snarks “If it exists, they’ll buy it”. (Or something like that) and in several TV shows (namely “Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur”) one character takes a quick jab at their live-action remakes. The same company that fired Kermit the Frog’s old performer Steve Whitmire because he didn’t trust any newcomer to work on the Muppet franchise.

@Beau Skunky
Oddly Gargoyles remastered was announced almost a year ago Yet I can’t find any gameplay for it.
I do hope it is an actual remake with hand drawn graphics and Not the original game but in hd like disney classic games collection.
Don’t get me wrong. I liked that collection but I would have preferred hand drawn graphics.

Did Disney really just make a “Jojo” reference in this “As Told By Chibi” recap of “Beauty and the Beast”? 😂

@Goku Black
I figured that was the popular opinion.
