I agree entirely. Disney just makes big, stupid
"least common denominator" Happy Meal advertising
franchises. They boiled Pooh till he was
pasturized...I think A. A. Milne would be utterly
sick to his stomach if he could see the marketing
tool the "Evil Empire" has made of his sweet old
bear. Tarzan was the last straw for me- I gave it
a chance, the quality of the animation, and
general design is very nice, but they had to RUIN
it with that obnoxious Rosie
O'Yermakinmefuckinsick Donnel. When I think
Tarzan, her grating, over-the-top idiocy is the
1st thing that comes to mind for me. If her
irritating pompadour-wearing gorilla hadn't been
there, it would have been a very passable film,
but there's always something in a Disney made film
to ruin it, and turn art to crud. The only films I
go see with the Disney name on them are the Pixar
films, because "Didney" just funds it, and leaves
those guys pretty much alone to their own keen
devices. The only US made animated film I think
I've seen in forever that had a real feel of
quality was The Iron Giant. If Disney had made
that film, it would have had a talking squirrel in
it. I do so agree, Walt was a visionary, and the
vision is waaaaaay gone...it's a real waste, and a
shame. |
