Disney was quite good in the old days. There weren't as many cartoons in those days, so they were entertaining to people. Just look at Snow White and how good it did at the box office! They did a good job on Pinocchio, Bambi (eventhough it's kinda stupid), Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and a lot of other films.
After Walt Disney died, the cartoons stayed good. Especially the ones that were around when I was little, like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King. Their stuff with Pixar was also good (though I admit that Up was pretty stupid.)
However, now their stuff is ridiculous. Hercules and Mulan were pretty bad. Hercules was almost as insulting to Greek mythology as Clash of the Titans (which I heard is being remade). And my sister and I used to make fun of Mulan all the time when we were younger. Treasure Planet was one of the crappiest things ever made by ANY company. What were they smoking when they thought it up? Chicken Little did more damage. But the one movie that I have the biggest problem with is The Wild, that apparent ripoff of Madagascar. It was pathetic, annoying, and unoriginal.
I do think that Lilo & Stitch and Enchanted were great, and I have high hopes for their newest one with the black girl, but overall, there's been a huge decline lately. Maybe because of competition? I don't know.
My REAL biggest problem, of course, is the Disney Channel. I hate Miley Cyrus so much, I can't even go into detail about why. Let's just say she's a bad role model for her audience that is mostly made up of little girls. I hate the Jonas Brothers too, and the shows on the Disney Channel are so annoying, especially the ones made in the past few years. The kids are so obnoxious, they make me want to live in an evangelical Christian household.
High School Musical is also a load of crap - so much that I can't go into detail about it. According to a magazine that I read, Ashley Tisdale lied about being bullied as a kid. In fact, she was bullying other kids. Some of these Disney starlets make Paris Hilton look like the Virgin Mary.
And the kiddie crap, like the Little Einsteins, is not good for kids either. It's just plain silly.
Overall, Disney is a shadow of its former self. Please stick with animated movies like you did 50 years ago or even 20 years ago. No more of this Miley Cyrus/HSM/Disney Channel crap.
