This will not be an easy fix, especially when it is releasing films lacking a compelling reason to see them.

It really is that simple. Pander to a specific portion of the population, and you had better hope they support you financially or fool the remainder of the population.

People are done with Disney. It will never be the same for them. I’ve been done with movies since Endgame and I have no intent on watching any more movies.

Although, if Battle Angel II comes out, I might make an exception. I want to see the conclusion of that story.

Ironically, that specific population LOVES all things and all eras Disney. I was always confused why Disney has such a loyal gay following. This was years before this.

Maybe they should try re-releasing Song of the South. Except it stars a Black man, and they wouldn’t want to be caught doing that, would they?

Simple answer. Perverts always go where the children are.

It’s amazing to me how a company could crap the bed as thoroughly as Disney has in the last 20 years. Utterly breathtaking. And still not done.

Good riddance to all of them. I hope they destroy themselves and go broke doing it. No one has ever been more deserving.

“But then Kathleen Kennedy is like, ‘F–k it! Make it more lame!’, And everyone in town is like ‘No, please, Kathleen Kennedy, stop ruining everything!’, but Kathleen Kennedy is all like, ‘Put another gay diverse woman in it! Make it more f–king lame!’ And Disney stock just keeps going down and down and down! And then Bob Iger is all like, ‘No! No! What’s going on with my stocks! No, Kathleen Kennedy!’”

South Park, “Joining the Panderverse”

Somehow, a gay Luke Skywalker saving the galaxy from homophobia doesn’t compel me to go watch it. Neither does a Snow White of Color and her struggle to rid the world of the capitalist patriarchy.

Disney is done with movies. Maybe they should switch to making masks or hand sanitizer or even vaccines. Yeah, a Disney Vax.

I was raised on Disney TV and films (1950s). Great films such as Snow White, Old Yeller, Davy Crocket, Shaggy Dog, Absent Minded Prof to name a few. And on the telly, MM Club, Zorro and the Walt Disney weekly show.

Now, I would pay money to stand in line to NOT see a Dis film. Now, if my grandkids want to go to Disneyland or world, I'll be the veto vote. If they want any Disney merch, I'll be the veto vote. They are to precious for me to allow woke indoc.

How about a Disney lite beer. They could hire a tranny spokesman who thinks he’s a girl.

I’ve seen the previews. It looked suspiciously woke and the animation looked cheesy and not very well done.

How about a modern version of “The Swiss Family Robinson”? You know, a family less white, a family more...diverse?

"No, Kathleen Kennedy!"

I wonder if she'll mobilize her online followers who will denounce the South Park creators has racist, homophobic, and transphobic and demand a public apology.

Or maybe she knows the gig is finally up.

If you go woke, you should go broke. If you don’t want that, stop pandering to a small percentage of our population.

From what I hear, Disney was considering casting Louis Armstrong (a black musician) as the voice of King Louie in “The Jungle Book”, but they ultimately chose to cast Louis Prima (an Italian American singer) instead. Good for them.

I don’t think Disney has ruled that out yet. I can only hope they don’t ruin that classic.

Theaters will finally die away, leaving kids to watch movies from home on ever-bigger TV screens. But, the huge income stream from movies will never return to Disney. It's over.
