Tom, What The Hell Are You Talking About??

Of course its great to live on Lamma, Jerry would have preferred there too I am sure, and not have to worry about anything. But when it comes to Disney, they are nearly your neighbors.
I would also encourage you to visit Disneyland, where you find many intellectual property items, like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty and Snow White and Mulan, which can only be found at Disneyland due to the value of a public cultural pool that companies like Disneyland have been draining rapidly in the 20th Century in order to protect their profit margins against their failure to produce new intellectual property
What are you growing in your garden there Tom? Mulan was only 1998.

If you weren't living on an isolated island, then maybe you would have heard of Woody, Buzz Lightyear, the Lion King etc.?? Of course these are also characters in the fabled 20th century stables. See the fascinating timeline here. Of course if you are comparing all the characters of the 20th century to those developed in the 21st, I think that you have to give them another 70 years or so to prove their worth.

Can't find anything negative with Disney, Tom?

Living in China and you think that Mulan is actually a Disney character? *geesh* I figured you for dense, but really...

And for good measure I'll toss in Pocahontas as well as another example of a character that Disney has appropriated from the creative commons. *geesh*

And for the record I don't live on Lamma either. So much sad information for such a short post.
