RingMaster Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 From Screamscape: Ever since Disney decided to build a theme park in Hong Kong and began talking about building another in China, we’ve heard countless reports from other various countries about how they too were making deals to build their own official Disney parks. Meanwhile a fellow down in Argentina has decided on a different plan to bring open a “Disney” park in his country… he’ll just steal the name. Take a look and you’ll see a small website teaser for Walt Disney Mundo SA Inc., which tries to get their concept across through a painful to watch 10 minute video. They do note that they have no relationship with the true Walt Disney Company at all on the site, though this hardly explains their actions. Perhaps the best thing about the website is the crazy looking green logo with the crowned butterfly and mutton-chopped fellow in the background. The Walt Disney Mundo SA Inc website: www.waltdisneymundosa.com The Walt Disney Mundo SA Inc logo: The Official Walt Disney Mundo SA Inc Press Release: The leadership of The Walt Disney Company of Orlando, Florida, United States which consist of John E. Pepper, Jr, Chairman of the Board and Robert A. Iger, President, made it clear to Max Higgins that Walt Disney USA will never support Max Higgins building a prototype of Walt Disney in Argentina due to the fact Max Higgins is having the support of $1 Billion US dollars from the dirty rag head Arabs including the Chairman of kingdom Holding HRH Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal who is to be blamed for the massive amount of corruptions with Euro Walt Disney. Only upon Max Higgins accepting only Wall Street Investors will Walt Disney USA support Walt Disney Mundo SA, Inc being built in San Pedro, Argentina. Based on the serious discrimination against the Arab World from the leadership of Walt Disney Company of Orlando, Florida, in the United States. The other Walt Disney Mundo SA, Inc wants the Arab World to know that we do not in any way shape or form support the most serious on going discrimination against Arab Investors by The Walt Disney Company and I Max Higgins welcomes all Arab Investors to come and Invest with Walt Disney Mundo SA, Inc being built in San Pedro, Argentina which is managed by the Higgins Warner Group headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina Sign Emile Maxim St. Patrick Higgins President Walt Disney Mundo SA, Inc.

Discodude3737 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 This seems like an exremely asinine and hypocritical concept, as they are trying to benefit from the facade of "Walt Disney", all the while attempting to protest the discrimination of said company. I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Butcher Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 This is probably the first thing that I've ever seen or read, that I still do not know what to think. I am speechless, dumbfounded even. such a truly odd concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RingMaster Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 And in all fairness, this isn't the first time someone's made an attempt to copy a Disney park. In fact, six years after Disneyland opened in California, Nara Dreamland debuted to the Japanese public in 1961: http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/dream41833/dream29.htm Rumors were spread around about Dreamland supposedly being the result of a partnership with the Japanese and Disney himself that, unfortunately, fell through during construction. Allegedly. As of now, the park's closed indefinitely, but what made the park stand out was the inclusion of two roller coasters (one wood the other steel) that one could find at any Six Flags/Cedar Fair park. http://www.themeparkreview.com/japan2004/nara1.htm Oh, and the fact that it looked like total crap in its last few years and received almost no guests whatsoever. ....kinda makes ya glad Japan's got a REAL Disney park of their own now. Actually, make that two (Tokyo Disneyland and the FREAKIN' AWESOME Tokyo DisneySea)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italianchef Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I don't think plagerizing Disney's name and insulting its management team will inspire Disney to build a theme park in in the Paris of the Western hemisphere. Don't cry for me Argentina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersNSich Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 If the Walt Disney Company loses a lawsuit against the other (hypocritical) people, the we're screwed. That creates precedent for someone to open a burger stand called "Wendy's," a guy named John C. Penny to open a department store featuring his first two initials and last name*, or the right to open a "Mary Ott Inn."** *I purposely spelled it "Penny," as it is different than the existing company "JCPenney." **Remember MikeRoweSoft.com? That kid's site didn't last long. Just personal commentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
