Old Disney stuff was dark. The fluffy versions are relatively recent.

How far do I have to go back? I know Sleeping Beauty (1959) is definitely much sanitized from the stories it's based on.
Thirties and forties.
Snow white is dark ???

Disney is brainwash for children.

The fluffy versions sell. How popular would Little Mermaid have been, if at the end, Ariel ended up as sea foam?
depends on the director and the script.
