Disney's theatrical release record for sequels is far from stellar, though, hence my reply to Skull Kid.

Does limiting our examination to theatrically released films really improve Disney's reputation much?

But Disney also has a terrible record with sequels. Toy Story is I think the most notable success in the actual sequel department. Iron Man 2? Not so good. Cinderella/Beauty And The Beast/Mulan/Peter Pan/etc. 2? Atrocious.

It's really a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" scenario for divine-level beings, I think. Being willing to use your full power makes you seem like a monster who doesn't recognize the moral status of other beings. Being unwilling to use your full power makes you seem like a monster for not valuing other beings

It's interesting how the review considers the idea of an god-like being which acts upon the imperative to eliminate/reform evil as a bad thing, considering how the apparent inaction of God in the face of immorality is often raised as an objection to his moral character/existence.
