Also, I think Jaitea's right. Disney already has plenty of girl properties. They specifically went after Marvel and LFL to get "boy" properties.

Oh that's so cutely retro.

I'm sorry it's so offensive to you (?), but they talked about this explicitly in that shareholder's meeting that they had about the property right after the deal got announced. It's all there in corporate-speak; they wanted a property they could market to boys.  Stories about ghost moms or oedipal complexes isn't going to do it.
