The "New" Disney, October 11th, 2009
On this week's show, Nathan Rose and Jim Hill explore The "New" Disney...the Disney that is represented by Rich Ross, who is replacing Dick Cook, signing the deal to acquire Marvel, as well as runs shows like "The Secret Life of the American Teenager", on ABC Family. It moves into family-friendly horror films like "Trollhunters" with the creation of Disney Double Dare You, as well as the new Epic Mickey steam punk game for WII. How are the hardcore fans going to handle all of this radical change? More importantly, how do all of these recent developments mirror what happened back in 1984 when Eisner, Wells, and Katzenberg came on board at Disney and reawakened the sleeping kingdom.
