Changes

Miller and Walt worked together on more projects such as ''The Misadventures of Merlin Jones'', ''The Monkey’s Uncle'', ''That Darn Cat!'', ''Lt. Robin Crusoe, U.S.N.'', and ''Monkeys, Go Home!'' But unfortunately, Walt died in 1966, and Miller was looked at as a man who could be his successor.

Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, Walt Disney Productions was mainly run by three men. Don Tatum, Card Walker, and Miller. Miller proved to be the most innovative of the three, as he expanded the company to form the Disney Channel in 1983, and pushed the movies that were being made to have a darker tone as he produced ''The Black Hole'' in 1979 which was the studio’s first ever PG feature (note that this was before PG-13 was invented in 1984.) He also gave the green light to ''Tron'', which was one of the first movies to heavily use CGI, and was also a PG movie. Both of those movies made money, but were both considered disappointments due to not being enough. Miller blamed it on them having a more mature tone, and believed it would be better if the company were to make a new brand that doesn’t have the Disney name. So Miller invented [[Touchstone Pictures]], and it’s first movie ''Splash'' was a major hit, and it helped kickstart to career of Tom Hanks.

It was now Miller started to be more involved with animation, as he served as an executive producer on ''The Rescuers'', ''The Fox and the Hound'', and ''The Black Cauldron''. With the latter being important as that was Disney’s first 70mm animated feature since 1959’s ''Sleeping Beauty'', and was their first animated movie to get the PG rating (although had [[Jeffrey Katzenberg]] not cut over 12 minutes of footage, it could have gotten the R rating.) However, during this time, Disney was the target of takeover attempts, and Roy E. Disney who was never a fan of Miller’s leadership, launched his first “Save Disney” campaign, where he successfully ousted Miller in favor of Disney and animation outsiders in Michael Eisner and Frank Wells.
