Gee willikers, things sure are changing fast. Seems like just yesterday I was piloting a boat powered by good ol\u2019 fashioned steam and you were suing the whoopsie-daisy out of anyone who so much as drew me in the corner of their soft-serve truck. Ha-ha!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tBut now, boy oh boy, you\u2019re letting folks create <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/ai-3\/\" id=\"auto-tag_ai-3_1\" data-tag=\"ai-3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI<\/a> videos on Sora using me and the gang? Golly, that sounds swell. Sounds swell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tYou know I\u2019m a company mouse, paw to tail. Ha-ha! Entertain the children by shuffling to classical music in a sorcerer\u2019s hat? If you say so, boss! Get serenaded by Minnie in a rap parody called \u201cIce Ice Mickey\u201d on the Mickey Unrapped album? You betcha! Let Cheech Marin kick me in the whoopsie-daisy during a musical number in my 1988 60th birthday celebration on NBC, after sitting at the Cheers bar where they serve alcohol? Hot dog!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tI know you invested one billion smackers in the wonderful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/openai\/\" id=\"auto-tag_openai_1\" data-tag=\"openai\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">OpenAI<\/a> and are going to put some of these user-generated AI videos on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/disney-2\/\" id=\"auto-tag_disney-2_1\" data-tag=\"disney-2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Disney<\/a>+, but, gee whiz, we have a hullabaloo of a thingamajig going on!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tIt turns out folks on this Sora thing are having me do some stuff I don\u2019t like doing fancy one bit, no sirree! I know you agreed that folks can\u2019t have us drinking, using drugs, or having sex \u2014 penovaginal or whoopsie-daisyal. But, jumpin\u2019 Jehoshaphat, it turns out that leaves a whole heap of supposedly fun things that I never, ever want to do again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tFor a few seconds I had six fingers on each hand, which is two too many. Ha-ha! Also, even though he\u2019s a swell guy, I don\u2019t know why I have to take 1,000 selfies with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/sam-altman\/\" id=\"auto-tag_sam-altman_1\" data-tag=\"sam-altman\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sam Altman<\/a>. Have you clapped eyes on Five Nights at Mickey\u2019s? Gosh, I couldn\u2019t follow a second of it, though I believe that was a problem in the source material. Ha-ha!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tI thought I was coming in for regular ol\u2019 \u201cget ready with me\u201d video, but they took the beauty products and tested them by rubbin\u2019 em right on my ol\u2019 eyeball. That sure smarts! <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tNothing too silly happened, but, aw shucks, I don\u2019t know why you wanted me to go to Club 33 with that fella Jeffrey Epstein. I took my head off at a theme park, and, golly, do you know what was underneath it? Chuck E. Cheese! I don\u2019t remember shaking hands with Cousin Greg at any board meetings, but he told me some silly stuff about the cruise division that, oh boy oh boy oh BOY, makes me want to never set a paw in the Bahamas again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tWhen I was told I was going on a super-secret mission way down underneath the Pirates of the Caribbean ride to bring Walt back, gee whiz, was I excited! But the way they had me thaw the ice was not something Walt would have liked one bit, no sirree!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tI wasn\u2019t there, but I\u2019ll never be able to unsee the one where Pluto has Goofy on a leash. I believe Disney\u2019s legal team knows how I feel about that kind of woke bullshit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAnd it\u2019s not just about me, Mr. Iger. Do you know what Sora is willing to make? Song of the South.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tBut don\u2019t worry, pal. You can just undo this Sora deal. Why, it\u2019s as easy as un-retiring. Ha-ha! In fact, it just took me 45 seconds to make a video of your press conference announcing it. Golly gee, I hope you put it on Disney+ right away!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tYour loyal castmember,<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tMickey<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dear Mr. Iger, Hiya, pal!
