...and that's exactly where this crap is going.What kind of nutcase would actually be scared by that logo??? Anyone remember that logo with a lion at the end, but the "roar" was from a small kitten? Ooooooooh! ![](http://www.film-tech.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif) (Also, please do not post things like "read this" in the title. Why would anyone care, much less want to read about disturbed people who fear a logo?)

There is the Pixar variation on the Disney logo with the 3-D castle and the moving shadow as the light arcs overhead.I too miss the original BV logo, it also was my visual cue that the movie was starting when I was a kid... -Aaron

While most of Hollywood was bought out by huge media empires, Disney avoided that fate by becoming a media conglomerate.For that matter, Disney has a history of being independent. They took a chance on three-strip Technicolor after it was first introduced, produced animated features when others were making shorts, and stuck to the 1.75:1 aspect ratio for their flat films when everybody else had standardized on American (1.85) or European (1.66) widescreen. Of course, Disney wasn't unique in any of these cases. Still, it is interesting to note these and remark that Disney is probably the only independent filmmaker that has survived in its original form from the 1930s? Others got bought out, RKO died, but Disney is still here.
