How has Disney impacted you?

Hey, guys, I'm writing a paper on Walt Disney--the actual person and the company, and as part of it I'd like some opinions from others.

As artists and/or as general people, how has Disney impacted you? And I mean that in terms of have the movies (animated or not) left an impact on you; did the actual man, Walt Disney impact you/your life goals/career choices; have the Disney parks left an impression on you? etc.

Basically, any way, shape or form that Disney, as a whole, has impacted you, I'd like to know. This can be in a positive, negative or neutral light--it's your opinion.

Disney has set a widely accepted way of entertainment for the widest audience.
He had a smooth way of merging the taboo with our "common sense" of fantasy.
The balance of sensuality and taboo allowed his style to thrawt discrimination.
His Art are linked to Fables that have moral codes.

Well the old, calssic animated films were amazing and taught me lessons. I cannot honestly say ALL their movies are still good anymore but some still are. :3

A lot of ways, I think. My obsession with stories, my love for fantasy (which lead in turn to my love for sci-fi), my love of movies, my bondage fetish (don't ask about that one), and probably dozens of other ways I haven't even thought of. I have Disney ingrained into my brain, since toddler-hood.

Disney has bought Lucas Films, which is still freaking me out.

Disney has definitly impacted me. I would love to be an artist for Disney when I get older. I love all the movies. Walt Dinsey also just seems like a good and funny guy. I had to write a research paper on him.
