Default More Anti Movies from Disney

James, I wonder if you've asked Disney about the PETA poster? Is this,
indeed, a licensed trademark/copyright agreement between Disney and PETA
-- or is PETA doing what they typically do, pushing the law to the limit
by stealing Disney property to enlist them in their cause.

All the web research I've done shows that PETA thinks its a good idea --
but I can't find a legitimate Disney source who says they agreed to
license the characters. I'll write Eisner when you can show me that
Disney did, indeed, license this deal.

Disney Goes Overboard

PETA has modified a film poster from the Disney blockbuster Finding Nemo to
promote its anti-fishing campaign. Disney's cartoon fish, Nemo and Marlin,
appear on PETA's website and leaflets that read, "Fish are friends, not
food!"
