The Walt Disney Company lost its top spot at the global box office in 2023 as the studio experienced an unprecedented string of woke flops, including The Marvels, Wish, and the latest Indiana Jones sequel.

For the past seven years, Disney has reigned supreme thanks in large part to its Marvel and Pixar brands. But this year, Universal took the No. 1 spot, propelled by The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Oppenheimer.

I’ll pay big bucks for a computer game featuring an A-10 which one can fly over any properties owned by Disney and brrrrrrrrrt things into nothingness. An extra game bonus wil exist for blasting the hidden Kennedy “woman” looking through a window. Disney’s anti aircraft volleys will be “woke” balloons, which explode into gobs of shi...er...Dorkbamastuff which can clog the engines, blur the canopy, or cause the software to assume that the pilot died by stink inhalation. ‘Twould be a great game and will sell by the billions and billions. Do it.

I hear Disney’s “The Color Purple bombed.” Too bad.

I, myself, just cant wait til Disney’s Snow Woke and the Seven Ding-a-lings hits the screens.

And here’s another “Claudine Gay goes to Hollywood” Disney bomb. dailymail.com-—Disney’s next biggest flop unfolds. Star Wars feminist director say her goal ‘is to make men uncomfortable’ Two-time Oscar winner Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy has declared ‘I like to make men uncomfortable. I enjoy making men uncomfortable,’ she said after winning the Oscar for a documentary about acid attacks against Pakistani women.’

AND THIS GEM-—Disney’s “Claudine Gay clone,” LucasFilm CEO Kathleen Kennedy, has been called by one movie fan, ‘legitimately the worst entertainment executive of my lifetime.’

I don't see how they cannot. Once you are invested in this poisonous ideology, you can't become unpoisoned.

I propose Disney should make a woke film with a woman lead. Preferably black and a lesbian. Fighting against non-existent White Supremacy. And I want them to spend a BUNCH of money on it. That’s what I want. For them to fall flat on their face again and be broke.

Blackrock and Vangaurd are subsidizing Disney’s losses. Losing almost a Billion dollars is worth it for the cause. Grooming kids is pretty important to these evil pricks.

"The Color Purple" is a Warner Bros. film. Amblin Entertainment produced it (Spielberg) along with Quincy Jones' company.

Since it's release on Christmas day it has brought in $49 million against an estimated $100 million production budget (probably a low ball estimate) and an estimated marketing budget of $75 to $100 million. On the low end this move would have to make $350 million at the box office to break even. In the past few years most movies make 1/3 to 1/2 of their total domestic box office take in the first two weeks.

They will lose at least $100 million on this picture.

The director wants to make a Star Wars film that makes men feel uncomfortable... no need to explain the foolishness and business impact that will have.

I hope this movie becomes a career ending event for many. I hope Disney is in Chapter 7 by this time next year.

Financially it’s not a worthwhile investment but the woke cause is what matters.
The wretched people who run Disney know it is the best tool the left has and win, win it hits the children.

Oppenheimer will win nothing. I don’t even think it’s nominated.
