Behind the scenes
The Walt Disney Company, often just “Disney”, is a media conglomerate which grew out of the Walt Disney animation studios. Though also owning media in various tones, styles and genres, the “central” Disney brand carries a popular image of unfailingly family-friendly entertainment, often softening the stories of the fairy tales they adapt into animated feature films to make them more “kid-friendly” or to better fit conventional narrative moulds. As a result, the slang phrase “Disneyfied” pejoratively refers to a reimagining of a preexisting work that makes its subject more formulaic and ordinary in an attempt to give it broader appeal than its source material.
Dibbsy in A Series of Queer Events was an obvious satire of Disney.
