Well I was going to take my kid to this movie last weekend but we went to see the Minecraft movie (again). Looks like we didn’t miss anything.

Still waiting for the Disney shareholders to get tired of the hemorrhaging that Disney’s wokeness is costing

[Red Badger]

Posters say the answer is clear - the studio 'talent' isn’t making movies for mass audiences, they’re making movies for themselves and about themselves.

Is anyone else as sick and tired of the alphabet mafia garbage propaganda in entertainment as I am?!

[No name given]

That’s true.

They are powerless................

I posted earlier on another thread about ‘Brand Collapses’ since 2000.

I may soon need to add ‘Disney’ and ‘Pixar’ to the list...............

Did you have to wear garbage bags to protect yourself from food flinging?

It’s a real shame what Disney has done to Pixar - there was a time when it was exciting to see Pixar’s releases. Cutting edge computer animation (I knew a couple of guys who worked up there) and great, watchable scripts (Toy Story, Wall-E). There’s nothing the Left’s wokism can’t ruin.

Disney must continue to do this until they go out of business.

Is it any wonder that children are jumping off their cruise ships?

Disney could have 100s of flops, and it would still survive as a company. So much money, and so much revenue from their legacy (older) products.

Now, they have to deal with the huge financial loss of putting it in theaters and the embarrassment of it being a colossal flop.

Apparently at Disney after Snow White snd now Elio, there is neither embarrassment at colossal flops nor accountability for them.

That would be Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street, Morgan Stanley and Iger, being the largest share holders. And they must not mind losing hundreds and hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars to push their social agenda. In any case as long as millions of idiots are willing to cough up billions of dollars at the parks for admission and overpriced food, drink and crappy souvenirs it’s not gonna stop.

They ran the creative guy out with metoo allegations and have flailed ever since.
