    Adam: Just fyi, Disney did not pay any money to that man's children. She's wrong about that too. His family filed a lawsuit that INCLUDED DISNEY and they signed the settlement document, but all the money the family got from that lawsuit came from the record company because Disney was clearly not liable. Technically "Disney settled" because they signed the settlement document, but they settled for $0 since all the money came from the record company that was actually responsible. This is a good example of lying by omission.

      @@blank-vj1mc He started working on a video for The Lion King (2019) and he wanted to do a segment talking about Kimba The White Lion, since people have been saying for years that The Lion King (1994) ripped it off. He watched through the original series to make sure everything he said was factual but noticed that pretty much every claim about Kimba and The Lion King is bs, so it's spiraled off into it's own 90+ minute long video he's working on. I'd recommend looking at Kimba Part 1 on this highlight channel and watching from there, because there's a lot of content he covers.

      In fairness she is a law professor rather than a Kimba professor - the core focus of her book & TED talk is on the principles of copying and IP law rather than whether this one specific thing is a copy; she's just using Kimba as an example and framing device. I assume she used it so heavily in her TED talk because it's better for narrative purposes than droning on about dry copyright law.
      I guess it sucks that she clearly didn't research Kimba in detail and gets some details wrong, but she's clearly making a wider point about whether it's ok for separate works that bear a lot of similarities to exist simultaneously. I think getting autistic over whether it's the moon/clouds/the sun is missing the big picture - i.e. that it's just one of many very similar, quite specific things in the two works.

    Here’s the deal though: ASSUMING that Kimba told the same story as The Lion King (which it doesn’t of course), that would just make Kimba a retelling of Hamlet, which is in the public domain, which would make the story fair game for Disney, would it not? I mean, all their classic animated features are based on public domain fairy tales anyways

      Because The Lion King is a shit version of Hamlet. I get this from my student all the time. The connection is incredibly vague, if anything. It would have to be every son avenging every father in the universe. Credibility: I have, in fact, watched Kimba the White Lion. And yeah, Disney did make it their own and added lots of cool things and visually, it's better, BUT "original" it ain't. And "but we've never even HEARD of Kimba" is disingenuous at best. Even Matthew Broderick had heard of it. If Tezuka could say "yeah, I was inspired by Bambi," they could totally have given it the same respect.
