You're supposed to be funny?

Wow, this indictment of "the Disney vault" is great. Even the animation is pretty good; it's clearly made by people who love the Disney characters even as they poke at their masters. And here I'd say "no" if you were to ask me yetsrday if NBC would have the guts to air a (lengthy! and spot-on) parody of Mickey Mouse and other lawyer-encrusted properties for the purposes of mocking their creator and their corporation. Fairusetastic! (From joecab.)

Edit It's been yanked already. Anyone have an archived copy?

For the record, it was the "Saturday TV Funhouse" clip from this week's Saturday Night Live. I.e. the work of Robert Smigel, aka Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. SNL is doing a "Best of TV Funhouse" episode in two weeks so they might re-air it then.

The funniest/saddest part was seeing a bound-and-gagged Jim Henson (and Kermit) still alive inside the vault ("he wouldn't sell!"). Sigh...
