Disney finally lost something to the public domain.

I'm not convinced that the legal right to make that film was there. Yes, the copyright has expired in the USA, however the film was produced and filmed in the UK. Winnie The Pooh is still under copyright until 2026 in the UK (70 years after the author died)

Good call. I didn't realize there were still places where the original works were still under copyright. But in retrospect, I should have thought of that possibility.

I suppose that makes Blood and Honey a pirate film, which is still good in my book. It'll be interesting to see if Disney decides to bring any legal cases in the UK or anything.
