> My sentiments exactly. The film I particularly saw this with was 101 Dalmatians. The Disney version changed the names of the characters enormously, bringing Perdita in as the heroine and dropping Missis entirely, along with Prince (I think...anyway, he was Perdita's husband). So, to get it back to 101 Dalmatians, do they put in some more, equally interesting characters? Nope. They bump up the number of puppies. The upshot of this is that the film version is taken as gospel, and when people eventually get round to reading the book, they'll think it's wrong.

Are you serious?! How could someone read a book that a movie was made FROM and think that the discrepancies are the fault of the book's author? Can people that thick actually read?

> And don't even get me started on the live-action version. Giggling raccoons and what-have-you in what is SUPPOSED to be England? Give me a break.

Ughh. If there's one thing I loathe more than modern-day Disney cartoons, it's live-action Disney movies.
