Disneyland und Deutschland

http://www.sfweekly.com/2008-02-13/culture/disney-amp-deutschland/

Imagining the details of a historically documented 1935 meeting between Walt Disney and Adolf Hitler is a great spark for a play, but playwright and director John J. Powers' production never ignites. The 20-minute history lesson that starts the 90-minute play fails to build up the excitement before the big get-together. Once Disney and Hitler are in the same room, along with Hitler's right-hand man, Joseph Goebbels; and his personal filmmaker, Leni Riefenstahl; there is hardly any dramatic action to push the play along. There are occasionally tense moments, such as when Hitler wonders how much of a Jew-hater Disney really can be if he works in Hollywood. But most of the hour is spent sitting around a big oak table, drinking sherry, and swapping tales of German efficiency and American pluck. Powers teases us with some provocative themes, such as the true roots of Disney's fantasy playland for children, but the tease never pays off.

It took Walt two hours to explain that Heckle & Jeckle weren't Jewish.

lol, Disneyland und Deutschland, they'll be singing in Disneyland the new Disneyland und Deutschland National Anthem.  Disneyland über alles

[Raulmarrio2000]

"Deutschland über alles in der Welt" (Germany above everything in the world) was not meant to conquer the world. Originally that verse was wrtten to teach that national wellfare is above selfish personal interests. It was written long before nazism, and has nothing to do with it. Now German Leftist Govt forbade that verse.
If just Israelis sang something like that about their Land, instead of caring to look good to the world.......

Ah who cares, I still gotta admit I love the tower of terror and space mountain.

Walt was not an anti-semite, at least not that Im aware of.  The third Reich actively campaigned against the influence of Mickey Mouse on the youth of Germany by the late 30's.

BTW, Iran propogates that Disney is part of an zionist conspiracy, which explains why Jafar is portayed negatively in 'Aladin'

(Im not making this up )

For Iranian mullahs and their nazi brethren all books and movies are zionist except koran and mein kampf; and the Jews are rats nothing new here.
Still less dangerous becouse unlike "moderate" saudis and Pal loving comies they're unable to decieve us.
