It wasn't like Star Wars hadn't already sold out. Maybe we'll get some Bly-rays of the original trilogy now (unstupefied versions). Not holding my breath though.
I don't have too much of a problem with Disney, other than them taking credit for stuff that didn't originate with them.
I don't know why everyone hates Apple so much. Yes, their computers are overpriced, but they look nice, function well, and are overall good-quality computers. Same for their phones, except the overpriced part. The iPhone goes for the same prices as any other phone on the market, and functions performance-wise just as well. Though theirs no point in owning a iPod Touch, iPhone, or an iPad if you don't jailbreak it. If you don't, get an android tablet.
OT: I really don't like Gameloft. They take an idea of a console game, turn said idea into an iOS game with just enough of a difference to avoid copyright, and sell them for 4-8 dollars.
4-8 dollars for an iOS game? Come on! That's rediculous!
Ok, I agree.Disney is horrible.How about we go through their failed shows. shall we?

Let's not even start on Miley Cyrus, The Jonas Brothers, Zach Efron etc...
Don't even get me started on People Eating Tasty Animals (PETA)...
But the companies that I'm the most irritated with are universities. The widely accepted belief is that a person needs college to succeed in life. However, they make that person jump through hoop after hoop, requiring them to take multiple Gen Eds and other courses unrelated to the individual's field of interest.* This happens until that person gets a degree for the low, low price of 50K, which they will spend their life paying back.
In the long run, I doubt the average college grad (ignoring medical and pharmaceutical fields) will be much better off than the guy who got a job right after high school with this economy.
*Yes, I know the colleges say that it makes the person "well rounded". I think it's just because they want to take me for every cent I've got.
Alright well i am back and well from my year full of disapointment as my girlfriend for 7 years left me thanks for asking :/
And well, I'd say hostess, twinkie's weren't all that great but now whenever i go onto craigslist or ebay people are selling boxes of twinkies. Dafuq happened?

That's not really his fault though, it's all the idiots that did it.

People weren't mad at the owners for being against gay marriage, they were mad that the owners donated money to organizations that try to keep gay marriage illegal. Thousands of over enthusiastic people? Not at all, they told the owners that if they were going to fund anti-gay organizations, then the people would give them less money to donate by refusing to eat at their restaurant.
Personally, I just hate when corporations bribe politicians to create unfair laws. A lot of people hate Disney for creating a few bad T.V. shows. Who cares? That's a stupid reason to hate a company if you ask me. The problem with Disney is the fact that they lobbied politicians to increase the duration of copyright laws.
Copyright exists to give people time to profit off of their ideas. Copyright originally lasted, I believe, 14 years if I remember correctly. That's already a redicilous amount of time. On top of that, if the author was still alive, he could extend it to 28 years total.
Disney would continue to lobby Copyright laws to the point where they became absolutely redicilous.
The Copyright Term Extension Act (CTEA) of 1998 extended copyright terms in the United States by 20 years. Since the Copyright Act of 1976, copyright would last for the life of the author plus 50 years, or 75 years for a work of corporate authorship. The Act extended these terms to life of the author plus 70 years and for works of corporate authorship to 120 years after creation or 95 years after publication, whichever endpoint is earlier.
Because of Disney, copyright laws went from lasting an already redicilous 14/28 years to 95/120 years! Disney WILL NOT let their characters fall into the hands of Public Domain. I love some of the stuff Disney does, but it's definitely corrupt.

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch.
Not too long ago, I made the mistake of clicking "Next" instead of the little, greyed out "Skip" button in the corner while downloading something, and accidentally agreed to have the Babylon trollbar installed in my web browser. Flashy "CLICK HERE" or "UR COMPUTER MIGHT BE INFECTED" scum adds polluted the home page, and I think some malware also found it's way into my PC. I tried everything to get rid of the toolbar; ran anti-malware programs, turned off everything with the Babylon name in Firefox's settings, and did a manual scan throughout all my files, deleting everything with "Babylon" in the title. And. The. Toolbar. Still. Was. There. Every. Time. I. Opened. Firefox. Eventually, I searched online and found one working solution out of many non-working ones on how to get rid of it.
So yeah... the Babylon company is currently pretty high on my "Wish would burn to ash" list.

I'll admit, iPod is great, I've had one for years, but everything else is horrid.
I will never own an iPhone or any other form of smart phone. Not that smart phones are Apple's fault, but the iPhone is!
