I'm a lot older than your five year old, but I'm not sure I disagree Tangled is better. Legolas Send a noteboard - 06/01/2012 11:12:32 PM
They have done a lot that is better than the classics it is just that they are not classics yet. My five year old would rather watch Tangled then Snow White and isn't she the target audience regardless of what a bunch of adults think about the classics?

Snow White is a classic because it's the first, but apart from the evil stepmother and a few iconic scenes, it's not really that great a movie. While Tangled was surprisingly good.

I find it difficult to see this as stealing rights from the public. - 04/01/2012 11:15:35 AM 1031 Views
Are you arguing for illegal use of legally protected works? - 04/01/2012 09:34:18 PM 964 Views
No. I'm saying that keeping works in copyright doesn't stop them from being read, watched, etc. - 04/01/2012 10:24:50 PM 933 Views
That's not the point, though. - 05/01/2012 01:05:17 PM 1016 Views

I know they aren't. I don't necessarily agree that they shouldn't though. - 05/01/2012 05:01:05 PM 923 Views

Do you think it is right that Disney can protect its movies? - 05/01/2012 05:29:08 PM 957 Views
Ok, what has movies Disney done lately that were on par with its classics? *NM* - 05/01/2012 07:44:20 PM 427 Views
