Seems Like “Fair Use” To Me…

Not sure why Mickey’s panties are in a twist over this ad

A beer advertisment featuring a ranchy version of Snow White has reportedly raised the ire of Disney.

The x-rated advertisement, for Jamieson’s Raspberry Ale, depicts the fairytale heroine blowing smoke rings while lying in bed with seven semi-clad dwarves.

In this Disney dystopia, Snow White has been renamed “Ho White”, while the loveable dwarves Sleepy, Happy and Doc are rebranded Filthy, Smarmy and Randy – supposedly to represent different types of drinkers.

I mean, what better way to illustrate the perils for young ladies of drinking absolute crap could they come up with?

My god, it’s damn near a Public Service spot!

    I wonder what Disney would have done had the Brothers Grimm been around to complain about their adaptation of the tale of Snow White being hijacked by Walt and Co.?
    Bought them off, probably.

    I never knew she smoked!

    I try to be a tolerant fellow, but deep down I scorn men who drink raspberry beer. I just can’t help it.

    Don’t mess with the mouse.

    Well, most of them have smiles on their faces. I’ll drink to that.

    Raspberry beer.

    That’s just blasphemy.

  7. Dave J. says:

    Gunslinger, raspberry beer is still beer and represents a longstanding brewing tradition, not some frufru innovation. Don’t knock fruit beers until you’ve tried them…ideally at La Mort Subite in Brussels. 🙂

    Bet she has a tramp stamp tattoo…

    And she does have a little of the unhealthy, dissipated Amy Winehouse look to her.

    Jenna Jameson loses another chance to go mainstream.

    As for fruity beer, just try drinking it in the bleachers at Yankee Stadium and see how many boxes they carry you out in.

    I think the term “fruit beer” says it all.

    Fruit Beer!? Blech. Dave J.! Come on, is wheat beer or oatmeal stout fruit beer? Fruit is as fruit does….

  14. Dave J. says:

    Gary, being a Sox fan, I doubt I’d have to be drinking ANYTHING to get carried out of Yankee Stadium in a box.

    I simply don’t speak ill of any Belgian beers, not for the country that gave me Hoegaarden and Duvel. Except Stella Artois, which was the “in” thing for about ten minutes and is basically the Belgian version of Budweiser (as in, tasteless watery swill).

    Australia is like ten thousand
    miles from the US.They should
    have the decency to create their
    own concepts.Leeching from
    ideas created by Disney Studios 50 years ago, shows that there
    is no other source except one..We are the source now,
    everyone else are leeches.

    Greg, you are our little ray of sunshine, I swear.

    I do have my moments of clarity,
    when the demons are put to rest..
