    ORWEN: This is what happens when you bring in so many non-Disney themes into the company. It ends up watering down the original spirit of the mouse and of Uncle Walt.

    Thank you for that! You could even go back further and say that it all started with the Alice comedies. I've always disliked the "all started with a mouse" line - it's a cute line, but it's revisionist history.

    They date MM's birth from his first public showing: 11/18/28 in Steamboat Willie (even though Plane Crazy was animated first.)

    I think it would be better to say MM "premiered" on 11/18/28 not born.

    But if you come onto a Disney discussion site and throw a stink bomb like "Mickey is just a drawing and doesn't have birthdays", you deserve what you get.
