Disney quits Peter Pan film after row over Gt Ormond St

Walt Disney has pulled out of the new $140 million film version of Peter Pan after refusing to give a share of its profits to a children’s hospital in London… Barrie transferred the copyright of his famous creations to the hospital in his will. The hospital has full control over all productions of the play and is supposed to benefit financially from each subsequent adaptation. —Disney quits Peter Pan film after row over Gt Ormond St  (Telegraph)

More evidence that Disney is evil.
