Anyone Else Read Disney War...?

[mickey0624]

I just finished reading Disney War by James Stewart and was wondering if anyone else has read it. If you are a Disney fan it is a VERY interesting read about everything Disney over the past 15-20 years including Eisner, Katzenberg, Ovitz, Gold, Roy Disney, Euro Disney, ABC acquisition. I don't know if it is 100 percent accurate, but it seems like Stewart does a good job at citing his sources. Anyway, a very interesting read if your a Disney fan.

I read it, and enjoyed it. He did do a good job citing sources so I like to believe that it was pretty accurate.

He took a lot of stuff from the legal proceedings so I imagine that stuff is sworn testimony.

The thing I found most interesting were the stories about ABC and the shows they passed up or that Eisner didn't like. I also thought the movie stuff was interesting. For example how they sold off the profits to Sixth Sense and didn't make anything and how the studio tried to torpedo Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow.

I really enjoyed it. I read it this past May and couldn't put it down until I finished it.
