Disney Effect 

Disease contracted by mostly women (and some men) who ingest too many Disney princess movies. Evidenced by being in love.. with being in love. They are always looking for their "Flynn Ryder", never happy until they are in a relationship. They break up at the drop of a pin when they find out their "true love" is human.

Facebook post, "Dear People, *happy squeak* my hearts tune has changed from "Everybody's Got Somebody But Me" to "I'm Yours" I'm sooooooo happpy! I finally found my Flynn Ryder!"

Followed, two weeks later, by a noticeable silence on their Facebook page- which everyone naturally assumes is because they broke up.

She may of contracted the Disney Effect.

The Disney Effect 

When a company pushes out a movie, video game, etc that is either a direct sequel, remake, reboot, or an amazing brand new fully restored with 1,000 hours of extra bonus features platinum diamond edition of an older title; with the primary purpose of earning that much more cash, instead of letting it be or making another installment only because you actually have a good story worth telling.

commonly happens when another company takes over a popular franchise after it has run its course, and often times involves recasting roles instead of using the tried and true original cast, further reducing any credibility.

Most Disney sequels, The Force Unleashed 2, Evan Almighty, and recent installments from the Medal of Honor and Call of Duty series plus many more suffer from the Disney effect.

The new Red Dawn and upcoming Halo sequels will most likely suffer the same tragic fate.
