The soft initial numbers are bad news for “Strange World,” which carries a steep $180 million price tag. They also continue the theatrical challenges of animated fare in a post-COVID landscape.

But we'll blame the lousy numbers on Covid.

Nice spelling. “If you though ...”

But like Billy Eichner’s “Bros”, many don’t want to watch WOKE garbage. If you want to be gay, be gay. But don’t rub my face in it.

I will not be seeing “Strange World.”

Sure, they hit most of the woke themes, but it sounds like they missed the key ingredient which all american families are demanding to see more of - obese, non-binary trannies!!

.....growing up in the late 50’s & 60’s us kids would wait all day for Walt to come on the Philco TV. Great adventure stories, great animated stories, Mickey Mouse, cartoons and so on. All just wonderful, fabulous, world class, CLEAN stuff.

Just under 2/3 of the stock in Disney today is owned by large financial institutions enabling Liberalism to take root in management. Next year, 2023 will be Disney’s 100th anniversary. Recently, it has lost 40% of it’s value due to the liberal a holes running the company who conflate sex with children instinctively and cannot restrain their perversions.

Meanwhile, millions of us hope Disney continues it’s financial path to oblivion so that hopefully by it’s 100th anniversary the company liquidates and is no longer able to pervert children. Maybe Elon will buy it and fire the managers.

“Strange World” is a most aptly named movie. It doesn’t even seem to be a poor grade of science fiction, and Disney is reaping the whirlwind with their emphasis on “woke” themes.

I’m GLAD I cut off Disney+, it is a bust in every way now imaginable. Totally indifferent to their target audience, they just keep on doubling down of their mysterious vision of somehow preaching the “virtues” of their ideology to the great masses of the people all over the world.

...“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” which is expected to top box office charts with more than $40 million over the holiday period.

...more than $40 million over the holiday period.

$40 million over five days (Wednesday through Sunday) - about 4 million tickets at $10 a pop. These are definitely not blockbuster numbers and are probably indicating that the movie will gross its production costs, if that.

If they had just made the main character a trans gendered black lesbian it would have made a billion.

But how can that be? The movie was so woke, diverse and inclusive. They included all of the correct racial and sexual groups.

Maybe they should have included a decent script with an interesting plot?
