I know most petitions don't usually do any good, but it's just a name, if you care anything at all about disney please read the website nd please sign the petition. The website has lots of information about why Roy Disney and Stan Gold resigned, What Michael Eisner is doing to the company, and read letter roy has sent to people, and letter's the website has recieved. Also There's a new company formed of disney's Former 2d animation teams Called Legacy Animation studios Here's a press release: Quote:
Save Disney! |
Ummm...how is Disney getting "run into the ground?"
Maybe they should think of selling their damn videos instead of "putting them into the vault" :rolleyes: |
Disney has lost their pioneering spirit, instead letting Pixar do all the work.
If Disney continues on their current path, they are going to be in a world of shit when Pixars contract is up. I can't see Pixar staying leashed to Disney with all the success Pixar has had. Just my $.02 |
helping disney would be like supporting lucifer. no can do.
the company went evil decades ago. fuck disney! |

That said, I hate that they did away with their animation studios. I am glad that the animators formed their own studio however, and I wish them luck in the future. |
Fuck Disney. They've screwed us over so many times, it's just become a joke.
They run the commercial/industrialized world. I say, let them die a quick and painful death. Yes, I would love to attach Mickey's mouse balls to a car battery. Just give me his address, and the boy is mine. |
someone fill me in... hat did disney do?
|
Disney doesn't need to be saved, it needs to be buried or cremated. It's already the dead and rotting corpse of what it had been.
The real Disney died when they started releasing all those direct-to-video ripoff "sequels" of successful movies. The Lion King was the last movie made before Disney truly died. |

Don't forget who gave us this magical scene... |
EH... I have to agree that Disney has gone gruesomely downhill since Walt's passing and with the death of many of the companies strongest assets.. anymore I do feel it's kinda lame.
Walt Disney started a great thing... but anymore it's sort of lame, isn't the same thing I grew up with. But good luck with the petition, I just know my signature won't be there. The cause is definently a good one to keep the name of disney around... but I do feel that Disney is just a name that will always be a part of American History but the company itself just needs to go. |
Backlash against disney! run!!
I think everyone misunderstands what Save disney means. We want the magic that disney once had to come back, No one likes where disney is going, That's the reason behind the petition. |

on the other hand, there are a lot of disney videos that should never have seen the light of day...

Who cares if disney stays around? as long as SOMEONE makes good wholesome films for the children to enjoy, then all wll be well. I grew up on disney movies, but if it was another studio or whatever producing them and they were the same good quality, It wouldn't have mattered one or another because it's just a movie regardless of who made it.
|
I would hate to see Disney go under....
Lucky for me, I get to go to Disney world a least once yearly, i could careless about the movies as long as the park is fine. |
Those of you who are complaining about Disney and how they've become a souless corporation should visit Roy Disney's site, http://www.savedisney.com/ .
Please sign his petition to get Eisner to resign so that maybe, just maybe, Disney can be saved. |

working for a media giant and having family that also works for a media giant, Disney. I also worked for the Mouse at one time, I can elaborate on many points about them.
Eisner is NOT driving the company into the ground. The other week they had some of the best financial news ever. Last year's stock growth was some of the highest the company has seen. Disney doesn't just put out kids films. Look at Miramax, Touchstone, and Hollywood Pictures for some of the other areas that Disney has transformed. As far as animation is concerned, yes they did get rid of their 2D animators, but if you look at the history of the company the 2D animation group has grown and contracted on a very REGULAR basis. After going to Disneyland and California Adventrue, the original park has lost some of it's cache over time, but it's still entertaining and was wonderful to see the kids frolick to the plushies that were walking about. California Adventure was a bit more adult, serving beer and wine, which the original park does not do. CA was though desolate as far as theme parks go. Attendance is not doing great. Eisner saved Disney in the late 80s and continues to keep the company profitable, if he didn't the board of directors would have already run him out since the investors would have demanded such action. |
Fuck disney. Just another money grubbing mega corp.

I don't like what they've done to the copyright laws. Specifically, they've lengthened the time a copyright is in effect, as otherwise their precious mouse character would have left their control a few years ago. Tough shit, IMO. They seem to have forgotten that they're supposed to create something new.
|
I think the media giants are slowing grinding to nothingness, the small new groups are going to takeover the quality production for a while then they will get sucked up with the media giants

It's not like Disney is some kind of divine thing. They only came up with Mickey Mouse et al. They had nothing to do with the divine Bugs Bunny. Their recent work has been nothing to write home about. Shrek (was it theirs?) sucked ass, especially compared with Monsters Inc..
|
I will support a disney that stops putting out unnecesary sequals.I will support a disney that doesn't sue eveything in sight. I will support a disney that actually gives HK films some love(Shaolin soccer anyone?).I will support a disney that will release song of the south and fantasia uncut(Note: I'm not a rabid racist I just like things uncut and I think the original version should be seen so we can examine the stereotypes at that time in history ). until then no sale!
|
The two things that piss me off about Disney are 1) the direct to video movies. I can't stand watching a sequel with completely different people. It just ruins the entire movie and is a sad ass attempt at making money. And 2) Califonia Adventure, WHAT THE FUCK were they thinking. That has to be the shittiest amusement park I have ever visited. I should have taken my 50 bucks and burnt it, atleast then I would have seen something entertaining.

Cynthetiq, you make some good points. When Eisner first started running the company things were pretty good. Maybe "running the company into the ground" was a bit harsh. The quality of disney has gone down, and the companys management is to blame. Disney is making it's money off trust now and pretty soon people are going to quit trusting them and the stock is going to fall. The shareholders don't care, They'll milk it until it's dry then sell it and move on to the next company.
