Do you remember Kimba The White Lion?
Disney swiped practically the entire story from that old cartoon, and IIRC won in court because their animators claimed they had never heard of it.
That's right...the world's most famous animators claimed they had never heard of Japan's most famous animator.
I don't know if this dentist is telling the truth, but I DO know that Disney has swiped material in the past.

Someone posted that on the thread in post #24.
