Tinker Bell.

From IMDb:

The Walt Disney company believes in fairies. Tinker Bell, who was represented as merely a beam of light in the original J.M. Barrie play Peter Pan and later became a full-fledged character (whose life is saved when the audience shouts “I believe in fairies”) is about to star in four direct-to-DVD movies. The studio on Tuesday announced plans to issue a Tinker Bell movie each year through 2011, beginning with Tinker Bell in October of this year, followed by Tinker Bell: North of Never Land in 2009; Tinker Bell: A Midsummer Storm in 2010; and Tinker Bell: A Winter Story in 2011. Disney said in a statement that the movies will be released in Blu-ray and DVD but gave few other details.

I really don’t understand Disney’s obsession with Tinker Bell. Yes, she’s a small and cute pixie/fairy, and she makes for a good icon for the company because of how she looks (except when she’s played by a man with a moustache … but that’s another issue entirely), but her character is … well, she’s a bitch. She’s selfish, obsessed with Peter Pan, and tries to kill Wendy. Admittedly, Wendy is a whiny little girl but she doesn’t deserve all of the hatred that Tinker Bell piles onto her.

Oh well, at least they’re only direct to DVD releases.

EDIT: On a totally and completely unrelated note,  I actually like a band that Daniel recommended to me. Oh dear.
