[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9893324, member: 18"] You can argue that, but the trouble is, we don't know, and we don't have much evidence about it, and the "parts of Disney that have been weird about women main characters" allegation is pretty vague and like, who, exactly, are you even talking about? Were they even in the chain of command here? I ask because my experience is people make these vague hints at dark forces but then when we try and pin it down, it'll start turning out that half the people being said to be the villain will not even have been involved, sometimes will have left the company before the decision was made and so on. So without some evidence or specifics, I would say that you're not actually "arguing" it, you're just alleging stuff or theorising. BUT That doesn't mean you're wrong. I say all that, and I don't think you actually are wrong, I just don't think that without support and specifics it's an argument as much as a vague allegation or theory. Is it a fanciful theory? I don't think so, but it would be helpful to have specifics. Because it might be completely false, and historically similar claims have turned out to be false. We have, but only like two I can think of. That absolutely was a crime in the metaphorical sense. That was why the new trilogy went the way it did. They should not have started work without that. The crime isn't just on her, but also on whoever agreed that it was okay to go ahead without that. [/QUOTE]
