> While these petitions are nice, they don’t help. This is about the 4th one that’s appeared. Disney is paying no attention, and even worse if they do, the more interest these petitions get, the more Disney might think the IP has value and not sell it back. The best thing to happen is for everyone to forget about MI and for Disney to think it has no value.

> I’ve said this before… it’s not pessimism, it’s being realistic. I don’t spend my days bemoaning not being able to make a MI3a. I’ve moved on, but still keep my eyes and ears open and if the opportunity arises, I will certainly jump on it.

> No petition needed. I’ve been working on my new game for over 6 months. After TWP and the Kickstarter, I’m enjoying being about to work on this new game with some “privacy”. It’s not a adventure games, it more of an odd take on a RPG. The reason I don’t post on here more is that… I’m busy working!
