The Evil Empire (Disney) just got bigger, they bought 20th Century Fox including their catalogue. It's strange that this merger was allowed to go through unimpeded while the merge of ATT/Time - Warner has been blocked by the American Justice Department. I wonder if "America's Greatest President's" hatred for CNN has anything to do with that. Disney and Steve Bannon are birds of a feather, Disney wore its fascist heart on its sleeve with Tommorowland - unexpectedly the American public rejected it. Disney is smart enough not to shit where they eat, they didn't fund Roy Moore's campaign for the US Senate.

Walt Disney was a piece of work, he projected a wholesome family image. At he same time, he was pen pals with Adolf Hitler and sent him a personal reel of Snow White. Adolf loved that film. Then he enthusiastically squealed on Hollywood's union leaders to the House Un-American Activities Committee. The cinematic New Wave led by Stanley Kubrick (a director he hated) broke his heart and he passed away in 1966. Disney appeared to be going the way of RKO in the late 70's, they regrouped. Part of that plan was the inception of sweatshop economics to make their trinkets, long before Nike took up the cause. These days they're on top of the mountain, a money making juggernaut. All is good with the world.

Enjoy the movie.

 
As the years progress, does it not seem more prophetic all those books and movies that warn about the evil corporations?

Net neutrality, giant corporations that rival countries and control domestic and international policy....

I know we're just talking entertainment here, but the roots go deeper when you control media and information.
