Are there any legal issues attached to using VMK? It would be something to consider.
Are you forgetting the intellectual property rights of Disney images, Disney-created graphics, Disney-created gameplay, etc.? There are no more or less legal ramifications for using VMK in the name of the game whose intellectual property is being utilized without their permission.
I highly doubt that Disney will pursue this (or any other) venture at recreating VMK. Why? Because they are always "moving forward, and not looking back." Of course, just because I highly doubt something doesn't mean it won't come true. I think in this case, though, there is precedent. Time will tell, however.
