    It's funny how even today people don't understand the amount of value in animation when one of the largest and most successful companies in the world were built upon it.

      Animation is the foundation of live-action. It's just more recognizable with its remnants in VFX. However, it is overshadowed by motion and performance capture.

    Now that I know a bit more about the origins of Disney it makes a lot more sense why Disney are incredibly litigious and protective of their IP. Of course anyone would be, but the old saying goes copy right law is defined as the life of the author plus however many years it's been since Walt Disney died.
    Also, story time:
    When I was a child I owned a Disney Anniversary Edition of Snow White. After the film it had a mini documentary with Walt Disney and Shirley Temple talking about the development of the film and its successes and challenges. As an 8 year old I didn't really appreciate the gravity of what Walt Disney had achieved, but I would go on to understand it more and more. I think that post credits doco was instrumental in growing my love and appreciation of film as art and the creative process of film and documentary. How one makes a talkie.

      The copyright on Mickey Mouse was supposed to expire in 2003 but a Republican Congress extended it by 20 years because back then Disney was family-friendly. It won't be extended again, and Mickey will enter the public domain next year.

    In an alternate timeline, Walt Disney could've easily given up on his dreams and live a regular life. But through luck, and sheer determination, he broke through, and changed the world.

    Walt Disney, with hard work and dedication brought cartoons to the big screen as full fledged movies.
    The last 2d animated movie the Disney corporation made was in 2009.......
    Now it's just 3d animation and bad live action reboots, sad.

      He also heavily invested in the up and coming porn industry in California... nothing he did to keep afloat was an accident. He did it with intent for he actually communicated with higher forces. He did talk about some of these things in a self autobiography etc that he made on his life.

    Why not leave out all the very modern footage? What is Will Smith doing in a story about something that happened a century ago? Why is there a clip from The Godfather? Why would you show flatscreens? It's OK to stall on one pic instead of creating a strobe light effect. The western world wasn't filled with African doctors and CEOs, by the way (and still isn't), as much as you seem to want this. Maybe call the channel How I Want History to Work.
