damn imperialist rat
I know Disney is as cliché as an evil megacorp gets, but I'm going to need a source for this before I start believing in just any absurd sounding tale.
There are plenty of reasons to hate Disney. If you're still paying for their content at this point, you are part of the problem.
The happiest place on earth, y'all!
It's particularly entertaining because he's dead, so whatever agreement he made doesn't stop her from filing a suit. In other words, this is not a situation where someone who's currently alive had agreed to something in a click-through many years ago and is now suing.
One of the other interesting points of contract law that I think Disney will quickly lose is the fact that the agreement years ago was between two parties for something that happened years ago. They will have difficulty successfully arguing that what looked like a small scale deal that has long since ended actually had potential negative ramifications but only for one party, for the rest of their lives. If Disney were still giving him benefits up to his death, I think that could potentially be a different situation.
And as usual, depending on the level of negligence on Disney's end, it doesn't matter what he agreed to.
Disney probably doesn't care if this argument holds in a court of law. If it does, jackpot, they now have a get out of jail free card due to case law. Their main objective is to wear down the plaintiff financially or mentally so that they drop the case.
I can't believe nobody has mentioned the fact that it looks like Mickey is pissing over the disney logo in this image
The importance of piracy right here friends...
Seriously I hope this situation goes in favor of the widow.
Imagine if he had actually purchased it.
