    Creative vs. Accounting

    It's the same old story. Eisner is a numbers guy. Pixar's goal is the best quality creative product.

    Crystal ball....

    What do we see for the future...

    Eisner will be out by year end or at least when Pixar signs with another studio. Jobs will be courted to take over. He will accept with the condition that Disney will only use Pixar for future projects....Pixar is absolved out by Disney. Jobs become new CEO for both...Disney buys out Apple....Jobs maintains control over all three companies....Jobs becomes richer than Gates...

    Revenge is ours!!!!!

    How is...

    ...revenge OURS if Steve is the richest man?

    No, revenge will be when Artists, not media conglomorates (Disney) and Content Distirbuters (Microsoft) control the content. Be they a film company like Pixar or the guy who strums out some strings on his guitar or the actor on the TV. We can think more different then just "More money." That's what seperates Mac Users from others. We understand quality at the heart.

    Yep

    Something happened somewhere along the line to Disney. Back when Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast were released, Disney was cooking. But since then, their movies have just gotten worse and worse. Maybe it's because I've older now, and so the corney stuff is more obvious to me. Yet I still find Aladdin funny and entertaining. I really think it's Disney having lost their touch. They focus way to much on pre-teen/teen stuff, content which is annoying to most adults. It IS possible to make movies which appeal to a bigger audiance, you know. Pixar has repeatedly proven that.

    disney made their bed...

    ...now they have to lie in it.

    They had a good thing going from Mermaid, Beauty, Lion King, even Mulan and Emperor and Lilo... the Orlando animation studio (they were doing mulan when I was touring there) was a great step in the right direction.

    Then something snapped.

    If it had been up to Disney, Toy Story 2 would have been a straight to video release, but when Pixar saw the potential for a great story, they put it back on the big screen. But it was the strength of the story, not the pull of the gross that made the decision.

    If it were up to Disney, there'd be a Bugs' Life 2, Monsters 2, Nemo 2, all based on the idea that a sequel does 80% of the gross of the original, even if the sequal sucks.

    Of course if it were up to them, there'd be Titanic 2, Armageddon 2...

    They need to realize that the only disney film in the top 10 worldwide gross is an original pixar - Nemo.

    Jews...

    Eisner is a JEW and is all about crushing the American beliefs. Look at the fact that when he came in, Disney started a p*** filming and dist. company Beuna Vista (spelling incorrect I think) and that Little Mermaid had a recall becuase of the C*ck on the front of the video cover, another Disney movie was recalled for showing Breast in a few frames. (Look this up on the internet!) The fact is Disney was standing for family value and Eisner want to distroy this for the hardline Jews to take over and become a super power through control of media and the people.

    Research this and you will see what I am saying! I am not joking and if you are Jewish, this is not against the religion just the extremest within it... same as the extremest in Islasm, and many others.

    It is REAL look into the facts and then judge it.

    Religion

    I know I should probably just ignore the last poster about Eisner's religion... but I just can't. Eisner might be many bad things -- a brainless, soulless, accountant heading one of the most important media companies in the world -- but his ethnic background a)isn't relevant and b) isn't a bad thing.

    Maybe the poster meant to be funny. Maybe. But he ain't.
