Lio by Mark Tatulli for December 05, 2019

hot dog… the mouse has got him

Can the mouse do the same thing to the cat or squid?

Aww, what’s wrong with Mickey Mouse?

There’s some good stuff on it.

The force is strong with this channel; it’s because the company is the size of a planet.

Next year, HBO Max joins the ongoing streaming wars. Meanwhile, pirating makes a shocking comeback. Who will win this fight? Tune in to the next Streaming Wars to find out.

Be glad it’s not the hands from the old Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour.

Shockingly accurate.

Sadist, the Mouse!

“We have ways of making you watch!”

When I read the contract, if you cancel early, you don’t get the remainder your back. That’s why I didn’t join, yet.

The Mouse is your Master

I’m not getting it.

probably gonna get us all!

The Di$neyfication of America continues apace. Me, I’m not a fan.

I can’t find it right now, but Robert Sheckley wrote a dystopian short story on the Mickey Mouse club, back in the mid ’50s

fusilier, rummaging though his old paperbacks.

James 2:24

He doesn’t have a flatscreen?

Alas, dear Tatulli, we knew him well. (1st Commandment of cartooning: Thou shalt not piss off the Mouse.)

Break out the Clockwork Orange eyelid props next…

I was interested until I learned that is was bundled with HULU and ESPN+.

Prisoner of Mauswitz.

I have a piece of artwork depicting Darth Vader in a TRON uniform. The caption: “When one job dries up, apply for another.” The humorous thing is that artwork was developed years before Disney bought out Star Wars. Far-sighted prediction or coincidence? Sci Fi has long been the forerunner of the future. What’s next: Thumper in Gundan Suit Battle Armor? The Little Mermaid, Battle General of Namor? Or perhaps Goofy as Doctor Who? (Wait, that might be an improvement…) ; )

About time!

I feel the same way about Disney+.

I wonder if Lio’s dad can afford it.

At least he admits it!

Cool! Does this mean there will be a Lio movie on Disney+?

By the way, don’t quit your job intending to learn a new skill on your own time if you have streaming services. I knew I would get sucked into them, and I was right.

Mickey Rat has been a conniving, cheating, untrustworthy corporation for a long time. Predates Bezos and Gates by several decades.

Disney is now pulling all of their movie DVDs out of the local libraries to force people to buy them or subscribe to their new streaming service.

Mouse trap

it’s also walt disney’s birthday. he would have been 118-years-old today.

I’d rather face the Master Hand from the Smash Bros. series.

Is this a slam against Disney+, and why? I am a Disneyphile…

Still not gonna join. Even for Baby Yoda.

Yep, pretty much the impression I got too….

Steaming is a way of picking your pocket.

TV does have a lot in common with a black hole…

Lilo and Stitch is getting changed to Lio and Stitch?

Wonder what shows Lio would hate and love the most on the Disney channel.

How true.

Big Disney is evil! Do whatever it takes to escape its corporate clutches, Lio!

mandalorian, baby yoda

Please tell me I wasn’t the only one who at first thought it was cartoon cat.

i like how Disney plus has a mickey hand
