They'd have to buy Warner Brothers in order to do that, and I think Time/Life and AOL have something to do with ownership of WB.

I heard they had a contract on the town where you live, including all it's citizens. I'd move if I were you, before Disney candy-coats ya. :wink:

Disney want it all! It would be bad if they bought all the characters. Whatever happens especially with the muppets they will always be Jim Hensons muppets, Disney can't just put its name on stuff that they had nothing to do with during the making of them.

It's the town of Celebration, Florida.

I wouldn't want to live there, but many people would find it appealing.

:confused: :eek:

You know, I think you're right. Everything there is pristine, too! I seem to remember this. No lawn decorations, they have their own store and stuff.

Lol, I agree. In my opinion, Disney ruins almost everything they put their hands on.
