You've probably noticed that I've changed how the entries have been split, changing it from four entries to five. They are now covering: 1990-1999, 2000-2003, 2003-2005, 2006-2009 and 2010-2015, with the new entry (2003-2005) consisting of the end of the former 2000-2004 and the start of 2005-2009. This entry shouldn't be affected by the change to the middle.

One of them is still waiting for Peer Review availability.

I spotted a couple of my mistakes:
'the the Bechdel test'
Also, you can get rid of the 'Composed by' in 'Planes'

While I still think it is inexplicable that characters in Sussex would celebrate Thanksgiving, you can press the button. (Can you imagine it if Winnie the Pooh and friends joined a Sussex Bonfire Society and celebrated by marching through the Hundred Aker Woods in uniform carrying torches in blackface and burning guys on a bonfire?smiley - yikes)

Ah smiley - eureka I didn't realise you thought that, so I have made a tweak smiley - ok

Is it Hundred Akre Woods, or Hundred Aker?

"(Can you imagine it if Winnie the Pooh and friends joined a Sussex Bonfire Society and celebrated by marching through the Hundred Aker Woods in uniform carrying torches in blackface and burning guys on a bonfire? smiley - yikes)"

smiley - snork Like the scene in Red Dwarf smiley - rofl

It is daft that Disney go out of their way to emphasise that Winnie the Pooh is set in Sussex, with artists travelling there to do their sketches and the recent 'Christopher Robin' definitely 100% being in Sussex, but then they slip Americanisms in.smiley - shrug
I standardised the spellings as Akre in the end across all entries, so ignore my typo above.

Yes, it is a challenge, that they try to cater to their biggest audience by using appropriate language, but also try to cater to the British audience by emphasising the Sussex setting, so end up not doing either as well as they could if they did one or the other smiley - erm Still makes more profit in the long run that way, though, I imagine...

Aha, Akre it is - I have pressed the button smiley - ok

Do you think we could add some info in the King Louie section?

Louis Prima died in 1978, twenty years later in 1999 his widow Gia sued Disney for lack of royalties following the home media release of The Jungle Book and the use of the character in television series TaleSpin (1990), claiming that Jim Cummings was impersonating her husband's voice without permission. Disney settled out of court and in 2001 agreed not to use impersonations of Louis Prima's voice, which is why King Louie does not appear in Jungle Book 2.

I've got three change requests, but other than that all good: smiley - ok
Can Max in 'Twice Upon a Christmas' be in bold, as he is recurring from 'Once Upon A Christmas' (though voiced by a different actor)?
In 'Mulan II' can 'Like Other Girls' be removed from the song list as I seem to have listed it twice.smiley - doh
For smiley - footprintssmiley - musicalnote 7, can the words 'The Winnie-the-Pooh films are set in the UK.' be added at the end.

The images I sent in for this and the other entry have been approved over the weekend and I hope to upload them by the end of the day.

smiley - ok

Max has been emboldened, and I removed 'Like Other Girls' as it is the same as '(I wanna be) Like Other Girls', I see smiley - ok

'The Winnie-the-Pooh films are set in the UK.' - I'm not sure that's true from what I've read in your Entries - the Winnie-the-Pooh films are set in a fantasy version of the UK where Ashdown Forest contains gophers, is subject to avalanches, etc smiley - laugh

Ah, so you don't question the existence of talking toys/animals such as Bears, Piglets, Tigers and Kangaroos in Ashdown Forest in the UK - but if there's a Gopher, that's clearly beyond the palesmiley - yikes. I still believe it is set in Ashdown Forest as that's what they've used to inspire the look of many of the backgrounds, albeit a magical one. And none of the events of 'The Tigger Movie' are referred to in the Heffalump films.

I was only making reference to your other Entry smiley - whistlesmiley - winkeye

Magical Ashdown Forest or otherwise, I just think adding the extra sentence would make the footnote unnecessarily bitter in flavour... It might also imply that you're suggesting Disney was deliberately breaking the law, and we don't want to go down that rabbit hole...

I added the excellent image smiley - ok
