Disney turned me from a 40 year Star Wars fan into someone who didn't care anymore about that galaxy far far away. Good job.

Disney used to touch our hearts. Now they touch us inappropriately.

Disney is the embodiment of
"Congratulations, you've played yourself!"

"Disney built by geniuses, inherited by idiots" -The Critical Drinker
Well said, mate. Sadly. Well said.

Seeing Disney, the company/creator of both our childhoods and adulthoods, destroy itself is both depressing and saddening but utterly satisfying at the same time.

Looking at Disney now is like watching your close friend get slowly corrupted by drugs

nuDisney’s 3 step strategy :
1)buy the Golden Goose for stupid amounts of money.
2) then immediately slaughter it.
3) be genuinely clueless as to why you’re not getting any golden eggs.

I read this quote the other day that I think sums up Disney perfectly - "When pushing an agenda takes priority over telling a story you have a problem."

Lucas buying back Lucasfilm at a discount and throwing everything Disney did in the trash is the first true happy thought I've had this week.

"Despite all my joking around, I don't want them to fail."
That's where we differ. Disney's manipulation of copyright law has been enough for me to want them to fail for years. The fact that we now live in a world where nearly every one of my favourite movie IPs has been absorbed by their amoeba like form is frightening.

“I’m old enough to remember when Disney were the gold standard in animation”

I feel that. Oh how time flies.

The real issue is this. Disney has lost Walt’s vision for what Disney was supposed to be. They are suffering from a severe case of vision drift.

"Puss in Boots: the Last Wish" was a movie Disney wished it made. That was incredible. Universal crushed it on the animated front in 2022.

It’s just shocking that catering to an incredibly vocal, incredibly woke, and incredibly small minority of people was not a sound business strategy. Truly, I am befuddled.

Disney might have been the biggest childhood memory for many people, but it's good seeing them finally experience the consequences of their actions

As someone who has a 4 year old boy living in the Philippines I have purchased all the old Disney classics.   Bambi.  Dumbo. Peter Pan.  Etc.  because I want him to see the world the way Walt Disney wanted kids to see it.  Is to bad Disney has lost its way for both the company and the audience.

Jeremy Renner jumping in front of that snowplow to save his nephew would have been the best Disney movie in years

The clip of Henry Cavill saying “fuck” will never get old. He delivers it so perfectly and it just encapsulates the feeling of being absolutely over it and not at all surprised

Disney has recently done something that the ABBA group refused to do at the time
Once a member and producer of the band ABBA Benny Andersson was asked in an interview , " You are a mega popular band , a very huge number of people listen to you - why don 't you raise important issues such as political and social in your texts ?"
to which he directly replied , " As soon as we start singing about political and social topics , a huge part of our audience will stop listening to us - that 's why we sing only about good and love , and EVERYONE likes it "

The "go away now" was perfectly timed with the Scar kills Mufasa scene 👌
