Disney is evil. That’s right, I said it. And, why do I say this? Because for being a massive company that prides itself on creating amazing entertainment for children, they have very low morals. A lot of ideas and sometimes full characters and plots are not original but simply stolen from other movies.
I mean sure, sure, “everything is a remix”, but not everything is a complete ripoff of another artist’s work.
Here are 9 films that Disney unapologetically ripped off from other creations.
The Little Mermaid
Do you know the song “Part Of Your World” that Ariel sings about wanting to live on land? A lot of the lyrics, the message and the flow of that song is fully stolen from the movie Little Shop of Horrors. In the movie the song was called “Somewhere That’s Green”. The same guy wrote both of these songs and since The Little Shop Of Horrors didn’t do that well, he admitted in interviews that he changed the song a little but repurposed it for Ariel.
Cars
Have you ever watched Doc Hollywood with Michael J Fox? It’s a story of a successful doctor that travels across the country to California, accidentally crashes his car, breaks a fence, and then as a form of punishment has to stop and work there for a little while and learn to connect and get along with people in the town. Now replace people with cars. Remind you of anything?
Inside Out
A psychologist once pitched this idea of showing how a kid’s mind works by using 5 different characters to Disney as a TV series. They weren’t interested. The psychologist then decided to take a different approach. There’s now a whole range of educational toys and programs called the Moodsters. Imagine her surprise when Inside Out comes out and she sees that they’ve stolen her idea, gave her no credit and the only thing they changed was they replaced a character called love with disgust. She sued them and the court case is still ongoing.
