You know, that is the most interesting take on the whole philosophical probelm of the 20th century*.\n\n My guess is that Disney was making the point that standing upright, using tools and speech were an important part of being granted human rights; Since Goofy at least managed to grasp those concepts, he had more rights than Pluto did. \n\n * This is of course the question "Mickey is a mouse, Donald is a duck, pluto is a dog, so What's Goofy?"

If you mean Merlin, as in Merlin the Magician in King arthur stories, it was originally  Myrddin. \nThis may have arisen from a place-name in Wales meaning "sea fort".\nMy name, Diane, means "divine".

My elementary school kindergarden class each year did a disney movie. The man character would sometimes be played by two different people. The kids stood on the side of the stage when their character was not in the scene and would sing in the chours. This let every kid be on stage the whole show.

The Romanian figure he was based on was Count Vladimir Tepisch Dracula.  His father was called the dragon (dracul) and he was the son of the dragon (dracula).\n\nHe is considered a hero in Romanian history for his resistance to the Muslim conquest of Europe.  He was a particularly brutal man though.  After one battle he is said to have impaled 2,000 of the Muslim captives and left them to die, arrayed in the fields around his fortress.  This earned him the nickname "Vlad the impaler".

My favorite story!\n\nArthur was the son of Igraine and Uther Pendragon.\nHe was tutored by Merlin the magician.\nWhen he got older, he pulled the sword Excallibur from a stone, indicating thaht he was to be the next king of England. \nAs king, he built a round table around which his knights sat. His capital was Camelot.\nUnfortunately, he had a half sister called Morgana le Fay. She tricked him into having a son with her, called Mordred.\nArthur married Gueneviere, but she fell in love with one of the knights of the round table, called Lancelot. Lancelot was also Arthur's best friend.\nEventually, Mordred grew up and challenged Arthur for the throne. Mordred revealed that Gueneviere had an affair with Lancelot. Now Arthur had to punish them, which he would rather not have done.\nThere is a battle, Mordred kills Arthur.\nThe end.

Simple.  It is a form of magic, a combination of filmmaking and storytelling that is both compelling and interesting.  And not only to kids, because I have heard of many adults, myself included, who enjoy many Disney films.\n\nBy the way, do you know where the Disney surname originated?\n\nFrom their ancestral home, the town of d'Isange-sur-Mer (pronounced disanyi) in France.

The Three Mouseketeers, I think.\nAnother is Mickey Mouse Playhouse, it's for preschoolers and is in CGI.  The playhouse was this year and the movie was a year ago, I think.
