MICKEYMOUSE NIXON innovation bites the dust:
ESPNCorp will no longer make direct-to-video spinoffs of its best-known animations. The purists will say these factory seconds cheapened the putative founder Mr. Disney's spirit, but the more we learn of Uncle Walt the more we learn of how the banks forced him to compromise his artistic vision (which, we might add, was still a thousand times greater than MICKEYMOUSE's), and at any rate, it's a little late in the day to blast a company that issued R movies to make friends with ad-blurbists for having compromised itself.
