As much as I resent Disney for their obsession with their family-friendly image, I'm sure we will all miss his hand in the entertainment industry. If I thought Disney had done worse with works like Beauty and the Beast in somewhat recent times, I still hold them miles above the sub-par live action shlock they've continued churn out on the Disney channel.
I muttered 'light as a board, stiff as a feather' for 2 days straight and now I've ascended, ;aughing at olympus and zeus is crying
