This many have been mentioned (I'll admit, I didn't read back through all the posts) but they actually got rid of the original Redhead completely and replaced her with the (much less attractive) Jane from the Tarzan scene in The Great Movie Ride. So, it seems to me we have an "epic fail" here.

I figured they'd put an Olaf in drag Smile

It does seem a bit odd that they are concerned about the portrayal of a woman in a town being ransacked by pirates, but the idea that a woman murdered her husbands in the Haunted Mansion is allowed to persist? Disney is sending mixed messages.

Yet poor Wendy is walking the plank in Peter Pan.

The only bad pirate left is Captain Hook.

I'm surprised there are no "Black Widow Bride" hatchets for sale at the gift shop, what little princess would not want one? :hide2:

.....the Haunted Mansion remains as-is ....because no one has "officially" complained yet. Just wait until someone that is just a bit too sensitive ....or just a perpetual whiner, writes Disney Corporate that the homicidal wench hits " too close to home" for who knows what reason ....and they'll probably run the Mansion with the lights on and the sound off!!

.....I am positive this is the reason they "put clothes on" the sculpture in Spaceship Earth that used to resemble the Venus de Milo. It was an animated representation of one of the great art masterpieces in history ....and they threw a blanket on it!!
