Learn to live with it. People do all sorts of stuff to Shakespeare. Check out “American McGee’s” take on Alice in Wonderland. They even tried to turn Jesus into a “superstar”.

horrible things Peter Jackson did to “The Hobbit”. Dragging it out into three movies was his first sin ...

Mickey Mouse premiered in 1928 in Steamboat Willie so should he should be public domain in 2024, but only if you draw him like this:

There IS an upside to all this: ridiculing and mocking Hollyweird.
South Park's cigar-smoking, cussing, violent, totally corrupt Hollywood magnate Mickey Mouse is epic and 100% accurate. It's probably why Disney didn't sue them.

Peter Jackson actually got permission from the Tolkien estate to do those things though. Well, he may not have gotten permission for each individual transgression, but he did get permission to do his adaptations.
To: DoodleBob
Well, Disney didn’t sue them because they would have lost. Satire is a protected use.
Disney suing them would have just been lawfare, but the South Park guys and Comedy Central (and whichever conglomerate owns them) are big enough that Disney can’t intimidate them just by threatening a lawsuit.

Can’t wait for Steamboat Willy to enter the public domain and Disney loses control, but I am sure they have already paid off enough DC crook to assure that will never happen.

Eeyore is not in this movie. When Christopher Robin goes off to college the Pooh characters become feral because there is no one to feed them. Subsequently they chow down on Eeyore. His tombstone is in the movie.
(The reason is the rights to his character have not became available in the public domain)
