Does Not Play Well with Others

in hind sight I'm not sure if Clarabelle Cow actually is fully public domain yet, since the character wasn't actually named that at the time. And was originally _Catharine Cow_ or something.

Saw someone asking why people are only using OG mickey going public domain to draw porn or make z-grade horror movies. It’s because if someone actually tried to make something actually meaningful and high quality with Mickey Mouse they’d get an army of Disney lawyers going over every page/second of animation with a microscope looking for the tiniest non public domain crumb to sue over.

Disney doesn’t give a shit about people doing low grade mickey mouse porn or horror movies, they care about someone trying to make an entertaining, well made animation short featuring the character, because that’s what would really make them look bad.
