You don't have a Chinaman's Chance with Ub Iwerks' FLIP THE FROG (1934?)

Iwerks was considered by many to be Walt Disney's oldest friend, and spent most of his career with Disney and that explains a lot.
Just look at the guy--he was already being portrayed by Johnny Depp in 1923!

Hopefully nobody that actually looks anything like these characters will be offended.

  2. What if he had become the star instead of Mickey Mouse, but I suppose they're just pretty much the same character!
