Robin Williams Sings Pixar's Freedom

[Salty-]

ign.com posted an amusing .mp3 of Robin Williams launching into a Disney rant and making an off-the-cuff song that could be called "Song of Freedom"

ign.com was in the course of interviewing Robin when the subject of Pixar's departure came up and well in, classic Williams fashion, this is what happened.

NOTE:This is Robin Williams folks not Robin Williams as The Genie. He drops the f-bomb once and there are a few adult references, but IMO a hilarious take on current Disney state of affairs.

(Save target as)

ign should be putting more of the interview when the post their interview for Robots (of which was the source of the interview).
Robin is also said to speak of his distaste for the over-marketing of Aladdin and other Disney over-licensing. If more comes, I'll post and give credit where credit is due.

Definitely not a family friendly clip. Do not play it when there are sprogs around.

But you have to play it if you want a good laugh :lol: Thanks for the pointer Salty :wave:

Funny he mentions Apple too.

Because Steve Jobs of Pixar is the same Steve Jobs of Apple.

Can anyone write down the lyrics? I'm in an environment where I believe playing this audio would be most inappropriate.

You have to listen to it - it's all in the delivery

As promised, here is a very small clip explaining Robin's falling out with Disney. Cut from the same Robots interview, this is a different clip than the Pixar bit.

NOTE: A lot less tame than the above mentioned link, but a small expletive still squeaks out. Rate this one PG.


Thanks to ign.

Hasn't Robin Williams kinda evolved into that guy you want to like but kinda cringe whenever he opens his pie-hole?

Actually, I want to hear what he actually says! I personally don't get why the Academy of Arts and Sciences shudders at him for the thought of him hosting the Oscars. He would be VERY funny, and ratings would finally go up. I'm tired of the FCC cutting back on stuff since the Janet Jackson/Super Bowl incident. Yes, I understand and agree that was bad, but now they're cutting too close, and re-privatzing stuff that was already public, like bad words, etc. We NEED to have more freedom of speech and other things, but cut-back on some stuff.

Anyways, I'm just saying he would do a good job helming the Oscars, and anything else.
