Do you think that Walt Disney really was cryogenically frozen?

[garrison-san]

Officially, Walt Disney died on December 15th 1966, but legend has it that he had his body cryogenically frozen and is currently stored away under the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland, waiting for the day that medical science discovers a cure for lung cancer and he can return and start spreading his unique brand of magic all over the world again. Most biographers dismiss this as nothing more than a baseless urban legend, constructed entirely from circumstantial details, but what do you think? Have we yet to see the last of Walt?

Oh he was frozen alright, but quite dead. You see, freezing him was used as a way of preserving his flesh until such time it was possible to raise him again as a zombie. Only the thing is, due to pressure from investors over Disney's financial state over the last decade this has already happened.

Top voodoo experts agree that Disney's current bulk output of live action teen sitcoms are the brainchild of Zombie Walt's decaying and highly suggestible mind, which at the moment is under the control of network executives with single digit IQs. Therefore, the only solution is to provide Zombie Walt with a sufficient source of nutritious brains to rejuvenate his own, and return to him the ability to once again create masterpieces that will capture the hearts of children around the world, instead of pandering to tweeny prostitots.

So if you care about the future of Disney, please send your brain to the following address:

Walt Disney Animation Studios
500 S. Buena Vista Street
Burbank, CA 91521-4850

Somebody once told me that Walt Disney was stolen years ago by cryogenic robbers when Pirates of the Caribbean was hit by an unprecedented raid, and that the man they've got down there right now is actually Michael Eisner...but that's gotta be a sick joke, right?

 

[Winterdaze]

I don't know, if it is Michael Eisner under the PotC ride then there's a good chance Jeffrey Katzenberg was behind the raid, and Walt is currently being held in the Dreamworks animation studio.
What they're planning to do with him, I don't even want to imagine...

Also, dat punny poll title

Oh, if Cats n' Burgers has Walt right now then that definitely doesn't bode well. They're probably using him in experiments to genetically engineer a workforce of animators who can create Oscar-winning material that still sells plush toys and plastic cups by the shed-load.

Snopes says no. And snopes is kind of my god, so I believe everything snopes tells me.

No, because Snopes told me it was a spoof. And I believe everything Snopes tells me.

No, because Snopes told me it was a spoof. And I believe everything Snopes tells me.

Ah, but when Snopes told you it was a spoof, did they also not say this:

"It's just as much a mistake to look to a usually-reliable source to do all of the thinking, judging, and weighing as it was to unquestioningly believe every unsigned e-mail that came along. Far too many have transferred the same breathlessly unbounded faith they used to accord various bits of e-tripe to those who make it their life's work to get to the bottom of crazy stories. It's sad to say, but the behavior of abdicating responsibility remains the same even though who is being believed has changed. It's still an abdication."

I'm willing to take that risk.
