When they bought Pixar
Dylan Perez
This, it was that moment when they realized they could just buy things people liked instead of making things people liked.
Mason Perry
Since the troubled productions of The Fox and The Hound and The Black Cauldron and the latter bombing badly at the box office.

Business are not good or evil. They're a collective of people trying to make money. Simple as that.
Matthew Sanders
Depends on what you consider evil. I'd say they're a lifeless megacorp, but not really evil in any traditional sense.
Elijah Hernandez
Pixar wasn't even Disney's first major buyout. ABC was when Disney began going down the path of becoming a conglomerate.
And Pixar's history was always inseperable from Disney since they were primarily populated with ex-Disney Animation employees and they created the CAPS system behind all the 90s and early 2000s 2D films.

Post bank account, let's see if you have skin in the game or if you're a cuckold with delusions of wealth.

Yes
Daniel Miller
It's just an average big business. There are probably one or two "theories" about Walt being a reptilian pedophile like with every rich guy.

After he replaced Oswald

When Walt died before he could root out all of the communists.

Gabriel Jones
so, if the typical behavior of a corporation Disney's size is considered "evil" when judged by human behavior standards
and our economic system requires corporations to grow exponentially year over year no matter what, until they either get acquired by such a company, or become such a company...
...then maybe this economic system isn't the greatest ever conceived and could be improved upon, or even replaced? or at least isn't worth defending....

>During Walt's Lifetime
Yep. Disney was considered evil by the animation community even in the beginning

They're a collective of people trying to make money at the expense of others, both competitors and customers. This is why anti monopoly laws were first enacted, to insure that companies couldn't just buy all thee competitors and half ass the products they gave the public. Also if there isn't any competitors, Disney can half ass the treatment of their employees cause there will be no-on else to work for.

They refuse to release official models of the Disney Princesses for people to make porn with
Chase Miller
They had awful internal policies while Walt was still alive because of their treatment of employees but didn't really start getting a bad reputation outside of those inner circles until the '80s when they started becoming really aggressive in pursuing lawsuits against what they saw as copyright violations. Like that suing daycare for instance.

what was the last full theatrical release of a 2D movie? because that was the peak.
Ethan Edwards
The problem isn't capitalism, it's the government mandating that executives ALWAYS do whatever increases stock price, regardless of long term effect.

I believe I could sum it up in one name:
Bob Iger.
Connor Miller
Wasn't that pretty normal in the early 1900s?
Camden Nguyen
Their stench is infectious and their touch corrosive, Like acid. They got a demon in them.
Benjamin Ortiz
Capitalism occasionally has breadlines, socialism occasionally has bread.
