Does that mean that Steve Jobs will revamp Mickey's ears to be apples or just have a bite taken out of one of them? Shocking Smile

Actually, I think this is a move to watch. Disney under Eisner had been so lacking in creativity it's a wonder anybody takes it seriously anymore. Disney needs some creativity, instead of regurgitating the same old ideas and plots ad infinitum.

You can't get a much more creative mind than Steve Jobs in the corporate world these days. Disney's own animation unit sucks and perhaps they will manage learn something from the masters.

But $7.4B? I know it's funny money but it's still stupid. If Disney has that much to spend even in stock, you'd think they could afford some creative minds.

I've found that creative minds usually wilt in megacorps under the tons of restrictive policies and procedures. They need room to do their thing, and that usually means doing their own company.

the restrictive policies are the reason that pixar decided it didn't want to make films sith disney anymore and now they have no choice. Nothing like forcing ones will on another
