I wonder how much of the layoffs are about right-sizing and how much is about ChatGPT?

So cutting 7,000 employees will save “billions” in operating costs? Sounds like executive pay.

Let the gays and trannys Disney caters to patronize their businesses - the parks, cable outlets, etc.

While the rest of us flee. I grew up close to Disneyland - but will never set foot in there again.

They are putting out a new “Little Mermaid” movie featuring a black actress as the main character. No big deal, as long as they keep the homosexual stuff out. Either way, I think the film bombs.

Also the “Haunted Mansion” film, filled with woke ghetto characters is going to bomb bricks.

Die Disney, die! /spit

They are making another Haunted Mansion movie? The one with Eddie Murphy didn’t do too well, did it?

Sounds like a good example how people say Hollywood doesn’t have any new ideas. Recycling/rebooting a previously produced movie. Go for it.

Also, hasn’t Disney done a few other “live action” versions of cartoons? So their “new idea” there is to make a live version of a previously produced cartoon. Maybe they consider that thinking outside the box???

As a stockholder and former Year-Pass holder, I beg Disney, please drop the woke, you don’t need it. Children don’t want it.

Walt wouldn’t want it.

Drop it. You won’t regret it.

Well, with their new culture, the same person can play Mickey AND Minnie Mouse.
Or Donald AND Daisy Duck.

And then there’s those guys, Cinderella, Snow White, and girls, Jimminy Cricket, and that white guy, Uncle Remus.

“Any bad news about Disney is music to my ears.”

However, Trump is saddened.

Perhaps he would not be if he had had my experience with Disney.

This means only the best in custom characters will be feeling up your young wife and teen daughters.
Of course, w demise of Reedy, you can go to the local police rather than the bought and paid for disney police.
