Mouse House Getting Nervous as Disney Shutters Lucasfilm Studio in Singapor
PJ Media ^ | 15 Aug 2023 | Michael Cantrell

By now, just about everyone and their mother’s brother’s uncle’s sister’s cousin twice removed has heard the phrase, “go woke, go broke.” And while it’s been a most excellent catchphrase, the truth of it has been somewhat of a mixed bag. Until this year.

Thanks to the boycott of Bud Light in the wake of its partnership with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney, along with the rejection of Democrats and progressives’ constant efforts to force twisted views of sexuality — as with drag queen story hours — down the throats of children across the country, people are voting with their wallets. And the impact has been devastating.

Not only has Bud Light lost billions of dollars and its cultural influence, thanks to the devastating boycott, but Disney is also taking some very hard hits as their woke movies and television series continue to flop with viewers.

In fact, Disney is feeling the pinch so hard right now that it announced on Tuesday it would be closing down Lucasfilm’s visual effects and animation studio in Singapore, according to Breitbart News.

Maybe Singapore will give them a good caning before they leave. Of course some of them may actually enjoy it.

I even believe Walt is happy Disney as it currently is, is in for major suffering. They’ve run his name through the mud.

Always tell the truth: "Thanks to the boycott of Bud Light in the wake of its partnership with transgender activist fake woman Dylan Mulvaney..."

Another reboot will save them! Expect to see “Snow White and the seven gender benders” coming soon to a theater near you.

Insulting your base never ends well. Whether it’s politics or business.

"Disney’s just gotten too big for their pantyhose."

The Disney pantyhose is stretched with a penis, a bag of candy, duct tape, clown porn, and zip ties.

I need to pitch them on a live remake of Cinderella with Mulvany as Cinderella. But instead of a ball, it will be a ‘ball’ And, of course, the target market is pre-teens and their parents.

Disney movie losses this year have now passed 1 billion and with the girl playing Snow White basically accusing the Prince of sexual assault good riddance to this piece of garbage company.

I have heard on several different outlets (podcasts) how Skittles stepped in it, this stuff is getting fun: Skittles blasted over new pro-LGBTQ packaging: ‘Time to Bud Light them’

Hopefully LucasFilm gets sold to someone who actually respects the IPs it created and declares (most) of the Disney stuff to be non-canon. The only decent Star Wars movie made was Rogue One - actually consistent with the established storyline - not sure how Kathleen Kennedy let that one slip through. 7 could have been okay except everything potentially interesting with it was destroyed by episode 8...and they admitted in the end what was obvious: They had no plan or storyline - just made it up as they were going along to churn out movies with the “Star Wars” name thinking fans were just lemmings who didn’t pay attention to storyline.
