Seems like a PR stunt to me after reading this and clicking the link to view the ad:

https://docsend.com/view/q9x3bdin5vy9cst8

Even with the voiceover, it sure "feels" to me as a consumer like Minnie is endorsing calling #LAW ... which goes beyond fair use, in my estimation.

Fair use? Steamboat Willie is public domain.
leakycap•1h ago
But Minnie is not, and the way the ad is used (see link to video) goes beyond simply using the ad.

If it was clearly legal and clear-cut, why would a law firm be suing for clarification?

A version of Minnie is in Steamboat Willy...?
