A lot of pessimism on this board.

This may be the result of LFL dicking-over its fans so many times *cough*GOUT*cough*.

This may also be the result of Disney dicking-over its fans so many times *cough*Song of the South*cough*.

This implies that once she goes LFL + Disney, she'll never go back.

(Take from that previous sentence what you will.)

The OUT and Song of the South situations could not be more different.  Clearly there's a reason Song of the South is locked away.  It's really not accurate to compare them.  Besides, Fox still has the original trilogy, right? 

I wasn't comparing the two situations. They are both situations of a company (Disney, LFL) dicking-over its fans and I was merely pointing out that similarity.

You're right in that Song of the South is/was a bad example. Better examples may be censorship (e.g., The Three Caballeros and The Rescuers) or crappy colortiming (e.g., Snow White).
