Yea, I believe Disney owns the rights to Toy Story, but I don't know about the others. They are so closely tied together, though, that it doesn't make a difference whether they legally own them.
I don't watch Disney movies or cartoons. I watch Pixar, but no Disney. Too cheesy and hokey and whatever else you can think of to describe it.
Yea, they just seem too princessesy, if you know what I mean
Plus have you seen the Disney Channel? I dunno if they make all that but good god. Highschool Music, Camp Rock, The Suite Life... Noooooo.
"I tend to prefer their "cuter" films, like Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo and Wall-e."
Which (I'm guessing...) inspires your cute games? (plus those hilarious drawings? ) My fave was Streetwise.
And about that Princess movie... It's another fairy tale Disney made, (with cute little side animals, of course. >_< except it's... guess what... 3D.
Also yeah TK. That "Buzz lightyear" movie was Buzzed.
I don't have cable or satellite, but from what little I have seen of the Disney channel, it's gone WAY downhill. It's all preteen pop star hullabaloo that teaches little girls bad behavior. I miss the good olden days when you could go watch good cartoons on the Disney channel (not toon disney) at Gramma's house.
Highschool musical is unbearable. >_> And I've never even seen it.
"it's gone WAY downhill. It's all preteen pop star hullabaloo that teaches little girls bad behavior.

YES, AMEN!! I really, really hate the new disney channel.
I'm totally with you on "it teaches little girls bad behaviour" part. (You got that right!)
All of their shows are, ahem- CRAP.
Highschool musical really... (*cough cough*)ed up Disney channel. Camp Rock Should have been Cramp Rock. >_< Some People call it Disney- I call it Uwe Boll University.
"Uwe Boll university" - love that quote, despite the fact i've not seen the Disney channel for about 10 years, though a stroll into any Disney store tells me all i need to know. High School Musical/Crap Rock both suck bad!
As for animation, i agree that the older, hand-drawn style was much more charming and much better than todays standards. Going off a slight tangent, one of my biggest gripes with The Simpsons these days is the computer aided animation (especially the off-character camera spinning thing they first introduced in Futurama - i hate that!). The older, series 3-7 style drawings were my fav. My other gripe is the quality of storylines and scripts - i think they suck too! And too reliant on celebrities!! Boooooooooooooo!!

Hand-drawn does have its own charm. Disney's animations are very noticably smooth and lifelike nowadays, but they don't have that charm anymore. The cartoon movies just aren't as innocent or something. Hard to explain. O_o
Haha, I'm going to try to get myself into this topic without reading too deep into previous posts, but I believe that classic Disney was amazing. Pixar still is, but Disney has completely lost my respect. Their last good movie on their own, was probably Brother Bear (not even the sequel). I loved all their classics, Lion King, Aladdin, Tarzan, The Aristocats, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Beauty and The Beast, Oliver and Company. Those were amazing times.
Pixar on the other hand, well and truly holds the initial spirit Walt Disney had when he actually created the classics we know and love. I love them.
Ah, I remember when I was a kid (Not a teen. ) I those watched classic Disney movies with my family... My favourite was (and still is) Hercules. 2nd was Mulan.
