assistant: This sparks the great debate... but my question to you is this...
        "Would you like Disney to be succesful and produce a Animated
        feature twice a year, or would you prefer Disney to be unsuccessful
        and produce an Animate Feature every other year?"
        Lets look at the late 70's and early 80's under the leadership
        of that business shark (tongue in cheek if you hadnt noticed yet)
        Ron Miller.  Hmmm we got that incredible 'classic' The Black
        Claudron.  Oh how we would like to see more of THAT!  Now with
        the success of the WDC (Or Disney Enterprises, Inc can't remember
        when the change goes into effect), we get two maybe three features
        annually.  Now with the increase, we get more of what is considered
        'junk' but we do get more.
        The 'Walts' were given their chance to run the company after Walt's
        and Roy's deaths.... They failed, now the 'Roys' have their chance,
        and it is making money hand over fist... but of course Walts name
        is getting ripped off of things faster than you can say Mickey Mouse.
        You have to sit back and ask what you want and what you can settle
        for.

Our house subscribe to it for awhile...but discovered we weren';t watching

Does anyone know why the change?  Was it on the part of the Disney Company?
Or on the part of each individual cable outlet?
Thoughts?

Hi Ruth:
I think everyone who will answer you will admit to be a "huge" MM fan.
My whole computor room is done with MM stuff.  We go to WDW every year and I
am always adding to my collection.  So, you see, you are not the only one.
On 01-23-98.....Ruth Yates posted a message to All that said.....
I don't have the same problem as yours cuz my hubby knows how I feel about
Mickey and all associated with him.  Has your husband been to WDW?  If not, I
suggest that YOU take him...he will love it and then understand how much you
love Mickey and friends.
