I can't believe Disney would do this. If someone tried to co-opt their imagery they'd get their asses sued off.

Does this mean I have to give up all my Pixar movies now? I really liked Up.

I hate all things Disney.

That's not true; I <3 the "Toy Story" movies.

Looks like the Mouse has ceased selling this particular item. Good thing--he is not a good guy.

You know Disney is a huge supporter of SOPA.

It i s a tough thing copyright. It is a protection that inspires us to create knowing we are protected - but the internet opened a can of worms where knit picking someone posting Mickey's face on the VT message board (or would it have to be a Chinese VT message board) could feasibly get a site shut down?

You can hate Disney, and the fact that they get special treatment under copyright extensions, but without it Disneyland Baghdad - wait - why have we been bombing when we could have been Disneyfying Iraq?!?!?

Check out James Cauty's 'Operation Magic Kingdom' prints.

^^Case in point. You didn't even crack a joke about my breasts. I'm disappointed in you, VB.

Did I read something about Disneyland copying the cover of Unknown Pleasures? Think I did. Wonder what for?
