So apparently at 81 years young, Walt Disney Co. has decided that Mickey Mouse is showing signs of aging and needs to go under the proverbial knife and get some much needed animation plastic surgery. It’s finally time for Mickey Mouse to step up into the new millennium and become a bit more ‘edgy’ and ‘rogue’ apparently. I’m thinking full sleeve tattoos, gauged ears, perhaps a mohawk and a lip ring, but that’s just me. Perhaps Walt Disney Co. is preparing Mickey for an upcoming cameo in a new Grand Theft Auto game. It’s possible, “Grand Theft Auto: Steamboat Willie & the Disneyland Disaster.”
All that said, it’s fun to think about how one would remake everything about the iconic Mickey Mouse if given the chance.
