: : i'd like to ask what is with the disney(mooby) criticism in dogma and the animated clerks being aired on abc, a disney company?

: I don't have the exact answer... but my guess is, it has something to do with you taking things far too literally.

I'd agree with Neil. The Mooby stuff was good-natured ribbing. Dogma was a fairly broad satire. It didn't really stick it to anyone. Anyway, after MrShowbiz published a completely false report about Disney dropping Dogma over the Mooby bit, Kevin posted a reply. He said that Michael Eisner faxed him after he read the MrShowbiz story. The fax read: "Kevin! I thought that scene was funny!"
