Its like Disney making a rated R movie!

Disney though has made R rated movies.... though before 1985 it was their policy NOT to. When Disney was almost lost in a giant takeover bid attempt and saved by Roy Disney (and a series of close counterparts Michael Eisner and Stanley Gold) - they realised they (they being Disney the braind) could no longer sit on the side letting 20 year old movies, two outdated theme parks, and a creatative division just collect dust and expect this not to happen again.
One of their initatives was in their Movie division - and they actually approved the change and began the Release of R rated movies in 1986. (now I read this book almost 15 years ago on the whole Disney Empire being almost lost - so I'm a bit rusty... feel free though to use todays wonderful search technology to look up how Disney was almost Disney-No-More...
