Oh Dear! Disney...

To some extent, Disney has taken over the world by retelling stories. Although, you can't really call  Disney movies shameless rip-offs. Disney has a way of bringing a little...optimism to its movies.

Let's just say: Some of the original stories don't have happy endings.


Over the years, even the phrase "Disney movie" has acquired it's own connotation. Understandably so. Disney was originally a company built to entertain children; love and happiness trumps death and sorrow in the kid game.

However, Disney has grown into a huge industry and has begun absorbing more than old folk tales. For example, The Walt Disney Company owns Pixar, ESPN, ABC Entertainment Group, and many other assets that reach beyond children's entertainment. Things we wouldn't want to be "disney".

The fact that it isn't obvious that Disney has claimed so many corporations is a good sign! After all, The Avengers (a Marvel Comics movie; Marvel Comics is owned by Disney) didn't feel like a Disney to you, did it?

Does this give Star Wars fans hope that Disney can buy Lucas Films and produce three more quality Star Wars films??? Sadly, no. Many fans fear Disney will turn this...


into this...

Oh the horror!

One of my best friends also informed me that the Disney Channel is planning to create a Boy Meets World spin-off called Girl Meets World - following Corey and Topanga's daughter.

No, not you, too!

I may have hope that Star Wars can be preserved - especially since George Lucas will still be somewhat involved. But have you seen the Disney Channel lately?

Vibrant colors, ridiculous situations, idiotic dialogue! No good can come to the new Matthews family on this channel.

Yes, they plan to bring back the original cast. But, I'm 99.999% certain that the show will not be nearly as good as the one we grew up with. Mr. Feeny would have seen through Hannah Montana's ruse!

What do you think? Can Disney pull it off?
