Walt Disney grew up in Marceline, but almost every child has grown up with his beloved characters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Honestly, I grew up with Disney.
Oh, when I was a kid, I was raised up with all the Disney classics.
I don't know a kid who grew up in the '90s who wasn't obsessed with Disney, and I guess I never grew out of that phase, honestly. It's not just Disney: it's anything that has to do with fairytales for me. I think I just have Peter Pan Syndrome or something.
I have always thought of Walt Disney as my second father.
When Walt Disney was making his films, he trusted his instincts and made films for himself, but they appealed to everybody, not just kids.
Growing up, I was always really inspired by Disney, and I had a great love of everything they created. My mum was huge fan, and she used to collect stills, and so they were all around the house, and we very much grew up on the early Disney films.
When it comes to classic Disney, I've got it in my DNA. I mean, the guy who trained me, the man who mentored me when I first came to the Studio was Eric Larson, one of Walt's Nine Old Men.
Mr. Disney believed everyone was still a child deep inside.
Everyone loves Disney, it just has a special place in everyone's heart.
Plenty of Disney kids are perfectly normal and love what they do. But you always hear about the people who aren't doing well. It's kind of like the squeaky wheel.
