Disney is SO lame and unoriginal.

i believe that those 2 are just it, the only reason they are even noticed are because the similarities are so blatently obvious, if there were more i am sure they would have been already notcied.

I forgot what it was called... "Simba" (?) i think? Disney bit off that japanimation movie to make lion king. Same plot and the whole deal. Except Simba in the original was white.

Probably paid the other guys off by now. Disney is so big now I am sure they think themselves immortal.

I'm not sure about Atlantis, but I think Disney admitted to basing the Lion King off of the Japanese movie.

And all they wanted to do was create a cartoon with a mouse...


I always was suspicious of Disney. Warner Bros. is better, anyway. Bugs Bunny would whip the snot out of the Rat any day of the week!!!

(Uhm, just a shame that Bugs, DC Comics, and all other WB property has to bow down to AOL, now. )
