Currently, 2024. I wouldn't be surprised if in 2022-2023 there was a sudden fervour of Disney trying to extend copyright law again though. (This would be the 3rd time)

Although Mickey Mouse doesn't seem to be a major part of Disney the way it used to, and only the Steamboat Willie Mickey is being made public domain, so it won't be like January 2, 2024 you can rip off Mickey Mouse clubhouse.

I'd still bet on Disney pushing to extend stuff over the next few years though.

Never. Last time it came close Disney lobbied hard for more extensive copyright laws. I expect the same thing will happen next time it comes close.

I know a lot of people who that was their favorite that we read. They all have some fairly similar characteristics.

Also Romeo and Juliet is terrible and shouldn't be anyone's first experience with Shakespeare.
