It appears that in the latest installments of Walt Disney Winnie the Pooh films, Christopher Robin has been replaced by a girl. I wonder how A.A. Milne would consider this? Even the Disney Corp has gone PC.
Kat Stevens said:And I always thought Joan of Arc was a bulldyke. Would you feel the same if Disney renamed it John of Arc and made her a male character? How androgynous is the name Christopher? If Milne would have named the kid Chris, you may have a case, but he didn't.
Wow. What a bunch of hard chargers. Pure hardcore. I wonder if you went through that site how many of them posted direct links to our site.

Hmmm, the real motive?The gamble could sweeten the pot of a company that already brings in $1 billion annually from Pooh merchandise, "more than all their core characters combined," says Thomas Ranese of marketing consultants Interbrand. "Pooh appears to be a robust brand that can handle expansion."
Thanks in no small part to Disney, kids read today because they have to, not want to.
