Yes everyone, you heard that right, the company that everyone's childhood came to live is now being sued from what I feel, is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Apparently, just confirmed a few days ago that a woman is suing Disney for $250 million dollars for stealing her "Frozen" story.
Yes, this involves everyone's favourite movie "Frozen" (okay, most people, I know a couple of people who didn't like the movie, but I'm not judging them) which we all know the story is based around "Hans Christian Andersen's" Snow Queen. But everyone knows how popular this film is so it's not a surprise an attention seeker would ask for millions of dollars.
Apparently Disney "stole" from Isabella Tanikumi's autobiography "Living My Truth" and "Yearnings of the Heart" which was apparently published in 2011 (2 years before Frozen). From the storyline to where the characters live to apparently the characters names. But here's the document if anyone is interested:

Here's a couple of things I find wrong about this lawsuit:
The Autobiography?: I can understand if the autobiography was popular but if this "autobiography" was considered "popular" why does the story have 1 star ratings? Apparently it was a poorly written book and of course according to many people, many people did this idea before. How do I know it has 1 star ratings, here's the Amazon link, see for yourself.
www.amazon.com/Yearnings-Heart…
Anna's name: Throughout that entire lawsuit document, they kept spelling Anna's name wrong. Instead of "Anna", it's "Ana". If you want a proper lawsuit, at least spell the characters' names right. I can understand if she made one mistake throughout the entire document with Anna's name but seeing the same mistake over and over again, you can tell it was not proofread.
Names of Characters: Apparently Hans and Kristoff's name was copied from the autobiography. Unfortunately I can't prove Kristoff's name however, I can prove Hans' name that pretty much helps Disney. "Hans" is actually connected to the "Snow Queen" story. The author of the series was named "Hans" Andersen which is possibly where the name came from, NOT the Isabella's story.
The Trolls with Powers: Isabella had problems when Kristoff from "Frozen" said his friends have "magical powers" because her characters also had magical powers. I might as well mention that in the old Norse Legend, it was said that Trolls had "mystical powers" which again, is nothing related to Isabella's story.
No Magical Powers in Isabella's Story: None of the characters have magical powers in her story, "The Snow Queen" actual does.
There's a few other things I can mention about this but this is only a brief list but the list, I can always update if I see anything else.
But what do you guys and girls think about this situation? Do you support Disney? Or Isabella? Any opinion is acceptable here.
I hope to talk to you all soon.

Merry Belated Christmas and Happy New Year!
Hey everyone; How is everyone doing? I hope all is well, hope everyone had an awesome Christmas and hope everyone has an awesome New Year. 2021 is FINALLY coming to an end, thank goodness, this has been a bitter sweet year for me, wish it was bit better but unfortunately that was out of my control. Some accomplishments were made, Swans Ontario is now soaring, made the logo for the club which will be in some of the communities in Ontario and another huge news that happened right after one of our darkest times in our family’s lives. Here’s were the darkest time happened. If you haven’t followed me on instagram, I’ll fill you guys and girls in about what happened. You probably remember me talking about our family dog Gracie the Cockapoo, who we had for 6 years. When we first got her, she was a rescue and we were told she was at least 5, (she may have been older). Well, late August, she ran into serious health issues, and we took her to the vet immediately and they had no idea what
Hello everyone!
Hello everyone! How is everyone doing? I hope all is well and everyone is healthy. So even though I’ve uploaded a few drawings since my last journal, it’s been almost a year since I’ve wrote a journal (and I need to do better showing up here as it has been a while since I’ve uploaded something). Believe I had a difficult time trying to figure out how to upload a journal the last time I was here but now I’ve figured it out, thank goodness. So how am I doing? What happened during the past couple of years, especially during COVID? I’ve been doing good, my family and I have been very fortunate not to have gotten COVID so far, we had been extra careful and we’re getting vaccinated, which is a good thing, we try keeping everyone safe. Obviously busy, I’ve been very fortunate to have been working throughout this entire time, trying to help out businesses, advertise, etc. Matter of fact, majority of my family has been working throughout this entire time doing what they do best at, helping
11 years on DA and Future years to Come! :)
Hey everyone; How is everyone doing? I hope all is well and that everyone is staying safe. I know outside of DA has been a bit crazy with everything going on such as the COVID-19. Just want to give an update that so far my family including myself are doing okay so far. A lot of my family members are part of the medical field or are considered essential workers and we've been taking extra precaution to make sure everyone stays safe. We hope everyone else takes same precautions as we do, stay home if you're not feeling well, wear a mask, take proper hygiene and of course, be vigilante. However, some exciting news to mention, it's now officially 11 years since I've joined DA! (unfortunately, I missed the 10 year anniversary, forgive me for I have sinned XD). I might try holding something at some point for the 11 years of DA, just need to figure things out. But there is things I want to mention about which I'll be mentioning here on this journal. Seeing me a bit more frequent here on
News about Commissions!
Hey everyone!
How is everyone doing? I hope all is well.
Quick update about commissions, I’ve decided to open commissions up once again and even accepted a couple of new commissions since my return. Which is fantastic, I’m still working on previous commissions, I’ll try getting it done as soon as I can. Can’t wait to get back into drawing! :D
However, I do have unfortunate news...
Usually, when I accept a commission, I usually give you guys a choice whether you want to pay for it before or after the commission is done, unfortunately I ran into an incident were someone asked for a commission, demanding it and then di
