Disney has changed...


I've noticed that Disney TV has changed over the years. Back in the '90s, the TV shows were either based on a movie ("Aladin" and "Little Mermaid") or Mickey Mouse and co. Now it's all gears towards the tween pop generation, such as this and "Hannanh Montana". I think there's more live-action teen sitcoms than cartoons today.

I wonder how the change started. Strange things are happening lately. Now, Cartoon Network broadcast live-action shows. Now that's weird.

...uh...I had an idea...someone make a parody of the "War Has Changed" speech from MGS4...I'll even provide the original text!

"War has changed. Its no longer about nations or idealoligies or ethnicity. Its an endless series of proxy battles fought by mercenaries and machines. War and its compsumption of life has become a well oiled machine. war has changed. ID tagged soldiers carry ID tagged weapons, use ID tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. genetic control. information control.emotion control. Battlefield control. Everything is monitored and kept under control. War has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control. All in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield... controls history. War has changed. when the battlefield is under total control... war becomes routine."

Isn't Boy meets world pretty old by now? I remember them airing it like two years ago, but now they've stopped. And that's a live action Disney show.

On the other hand... those movie based cartoons are REALLY weird when you think about it. Like... crap, I don't know the English name, but the one that's a spin-off of The Jungle Book. I mean, WHY would a bear from the jungle suddenly be flying a plane?

Or Rescue Rangers, it's also REALLY weird. Both are great shows, but I don't see the connection to the movies, except for the characters. They don't really do it like that anymore, do they?

Haha, Animal Planet, I think you're talking about Tale Spin.

You can tell from the opening that the show was weird, don't even have to watch it. Lol.

Yeah, that's the name! I think it's a great show, but when you think about the movie... WEIRD. :P

Disney xd basically has all the cartoons now, even though they're crap now. But I think even Stevens or Lizzy McGuire started all the tween crap pop shows. Though still alright tween shows back in the day. But now all tween shows are stupid. Ant crap farm, Liv and die Maddie, shake it up, k.c undercover ect
