Disney Is the ASHES of Civilisation Elon Musk NUKES Bob Iger

Disney's recent cinema movies such as The Marvels and Wish have had huge budgets. Yet the box office revenue from these soon to be Disney plus shows were below expectations. Disney CEO Bob Iger was questioned at a dealbook interview about this, and later had run ins with Elon Musk. But why are Disney shows from the Marvel MCU such as Secret Invasion, or Star Wars Ahsoka failing? Does Bob Iger Understand Disney's problems? Is Disney+ worth watching?

Disney CEO Bob Iger got Nuked by Elon Musk at the Dealbook interview earlier, but Bob Iger's interview itself was very interesting. While giving lip service to caring about less sequels, quality not quantity and entertainment over messaging, did he mean it? Or worse, is he even capable of understanding the size of the problem he's facing? Because SOME people do like the Disney movies, but for entirely different reasons to what the audience means when they ask for "good stories". They like the people in the movie, not the acts that the people do. In fact the acts of the people are motivated by the identity of the person. This is entirely backwards to how stories used to be told, how values and morals used to be passed down through history. But as Doctor Who tells people to relinquish power, is that the right way? Or is it a moral duty to push for the change you want to see? As if one point of view doesn't, the other one will. But what do you think? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

[@teenybopper598]

Great video, my only question is does everyone have to use the term "nukes" in the video titles? I'm guessing it's because of the whole clickbait algorithm system but I'd hardly call what he said nuking. He wants to say they're holding him hostage which is such a victimhood exaggeration. I hate Disney as much as the next person but not giving someone money because you don't like what they say is not holding them hostage that's just capitalism.

[@maozedong8370]

I COMPLETELY disagree with you that "morals" are what make a good story. Morals don't even exist in reality so they have no meaning regardless. Now personal values do influence how a particular story can be received by someone and as most people share basic similar values like wanting to survive for instance or protecting family, seeing a character fight to live or protect their family will connect with these people. Such things though do NOT make a good story. If that were the case, most horror movies would be despised solely because the monsters in them wipe out the people and then the movie ends. There are many ways to captivate an audience, aligning with their personal views on life is an easy way, but NOT the only way. The real problem going on nowadays is just sh*tty plot and forced values. This is where these companies really screw up because a good story doesn't need to ram a lesson it wants to teach you down your throat, yet media these days want to give you a random lesson they believe in, ram in down your gullet by bringing it up constantly and not even necessarily having said lesson even agree with their own show. Like in Robyn Hood, if your idea is to show people trying to get justice, it is a very bad idea to seemingly give the very characters you are writing almost no reason to get it. A guy legally bought their property and was going to develop a crime ridden neighborhood and to fight back, they did crime whilst trying to portray the guy as the one with the problem. This is poor storytelling because it makes no logical sense. A story like this can easily be told like from a perspective of Breaking Bad, you can even make your "villainous" characters win and have the audience love them, you just have to write them properly.

Nono... That is exactly what Hollywood's definition of diverse is. No one who is different from the established and approved. So in that sense BP was diverse... Just not dictionary definition diverse, or normal persons definition of diverse. UK's BBC is now considered diverse and the idiginous British person is a minority in its halls. Historical figures like Anne Bolin and Isaac Newton are race swapped and are now 'diverse'. When the term diverse is used, don't think of what the term means. Look at how the person is using it. Enough time has passed to see what Hollywood's intent is when making places diverse which is not defined by who comes in... It's defined as who they are getting rid of.

Black Panther is one of the least diverse films made recently. Like there are only 2 non black characters, one of whom gets killed, and the other gets called 'coloniser' the whole time, but it's set in Africa, so it makes sense that everyone is black.

I would much rather have a million more direct to video sequels, then all the unnecessary remakes Bob iger is allowed to make. At least those films tried to show some creativity and continued their stories, rather than just retelling them again for no reason other than just to make them better for the woke crowd that never pays money for them anyway.

And he also knew that he'd face torture and a very slow death for that. So this is actually a really cowardice solution.

They are doing it all on purpose and giving a middle finger to their audience while gaslighting them and telling them that they're the problem, that they actually *are* making good movies. Your version sounds more plausible but also more optimistic. It implies that they could still be taught that identity isn't the same as morality and that'll fix everything, instead of the core problem being their alternate goals and their morality itself. I do hope you're right. Side note: Jack Harkness. What an awesome character that EVERYONE liked. I don't remember anyone complaining that he was bi-sexual (but mostly gay), it wasn't who he was just an interesting part of his character. I actually can't even think of a single non-straight character other than him that's both a good character and whose entire identity isn't based on their alternate sexuality. Just Jack. I can think of plenty of gay celebrities or other noteworthy people in reality who are great for something other than being gay, but no other gay fictional character.

You really nailed it with this one. Possibly my favorite of your videos and a phenomenon we should all be talking about.

[@gishjalmr5628]

The underlying message of Secret Invasion was that when you open your world (countries, specifically in the West) you must promise the migrants (invaders masquerading as good people) that their lives will be completely provided for and they must have free reign to live how they wish regardless of societal standards and laws that have existed in the world (countries, specifically in the West) and that if anyone that is native to the world (countries, specifically in the West) questions the migration (invasion) those natives will be demonized and when possible jailed to send a message that the desire to protect your world (countries, especially in the West) will not be tolerated.

[@boobah5643]

I suspect you're right that that was the intended message. That's not what I drew from it, which is something closer to "Don't accept refugees; they'll inevitably decide that their interests are more important than your shared interests, and think themselves righteous in evicting you from the land you offered to share with them."

[@DeadlyPlatypus]

Pretty much shows why their “newer” films and shows don’t have realistic struggles.

What would Walt think now? He’d be rolling in his grave at how far his company has fallen, how it’s lost its way.

He’d keel over a second time if he’d seen how much Disney has lost its way. Which is why some fans have abandoned it.

Bob's only mistake is in the choice of people who ultimately f'cked everything up for him. 🙄 Insightful. I honestly think that Davies' explanation regarding he and his production team's compulsion to project their shared proclivity to view the disabled as being innately evil onto the viewer was the dumbest case of virtue signaling that I've heard. At least this year. No matter how hard I try I'm incapable of steel manning this concept. "Handicapped=evil" isn't even a thing. At least not since the advent of the microscope and the general acceptance that disease isn't a sign that you've displeased the gods. It's like a parody of what a SJW believes.

[@Nyet-Zdyes]

Russell T. Davies' comment is a perfect example of what Elon said... Davies was pretending to be virtuous while... not being virtuous. Bob Iger himself is another example. He claimed to be virtuous by dragging Disney into that political fight with Florida... all so that he could stab Chapek in the back so that he could get his old job back... which, in a fitting case of karma, is part of the reason Disney is having problems right now... problems that Iger caused... and that he now has to try to solve.

well said. the film industry is using identities rather than individual actions as the measurement of morality, because as token characters aimed to represent a specific minority demographic, it has become taboo to showcase them as committing acts of evil, because it would be perceived to reflect badly upon the entire demographic they were supposed to represent.

These studios allowed themselves to be convinced that what they saw on twitter 1.0 represented the majority of people in the real world. They were easily persuaded because what they saw resonated with their own echo chambers. They should’ve realized something wasn’t quite what they expected when their audience started shrinking even though they were doing exactly what the echo chamber said audiences wanted. Since twitter 2.0 began they now know that what they saw on twitter was carefully curated to look like the far left represented way more than it did. They were in denial for a while but their profit margins continued to shrink as fast as their audience. They’re finally realizing that twitter was a lie and they bought it hook line and sinker. Now their companies are full of these commie activists that don’t care about profit only the message. We’ve seen some of them testing the waters with movies and shows that don’t have any woke garbage in them along side the stuff they’ve been producing without any success to guage the true feelings of the paying customers. The results have been obvious but now they have to get the activists out of their companies and those people aren’t going to go away quietly. They’re in a real mess and getting out of it is going to be even messier. Good they deserve each other and everything that comes with it!

If Bob had distanced himself further away from Disney then the office shower, Disney could be saved.

[@fpvx3922]

If there's a concern about avoiding negative stereotypes by not portraying characters with disabilities as evil, it's equally important not to limit them to exclusively positive or virtuous roles. Applying a double standard reinforces the idea that people with disabilities should be treated differently in media and storytelling. ust as it's unrealistic to stereotype them as universally evil, it's equally limiting to portray them as uniformly good or virtuous. True diversity means allowing characters with disabilities to be as complex and varied as characters without disabilities.

[@boobah5643]

But didn't you hear? "The only remedy for past discrimination is current discrimination, and the only solution to current discrimination is future discrimination." Thus ensuring that the merry-go-round never stops spinning, and the associated grifters can continue to get paid. Seriously, even decades before Kendi's formulation there were folks arguing that 'entertainment' needed to reverse all their most hated tropes to even the keel. I'm sure they had a perfectly rational way to weight Shakespeare's portrayal of women versus _Beowulf's_ versus the more recent Ridley Scott or James Cameron.

I have lived in this world for over 30 years, in Poland, and I am sure of one thing when it comes to people: what matters is their character, what kind of person they are, not what social/ethnic group they belong to. There are people everywhere who commit bad acts, in every group, looking at one and saying that they are "clean as a whistle" we fall into a very dangerous trap. No one is a saint, no matter how many limbs they have or what skin color. What matters is whether they choose to be good people. That's what humanity is all about. I don't wonder why Hollywood doesn't understand it. I doubt there are people who still have souls... After all, they sold them for fame and fortune and they don't hide it.

[@zeroryuj6093]

Iger brought woke politics into Disney. Thats just a fact. Hes had (and likely still has) aspirations to run for President as well as mayor. He was donating to BOTH political parties until he ultimately decided to go full democrat and wanted to use his handling of Disney as a boon to his campaign. Once he went full Democrat he opened the doors and encouraged the woke infestation because he thought it would help him...fast forward to today and hes trying to blame everyone else for what HE caused. Chapek was meant to be a fall guy, until Iger thought he could "save the company" and come out looking like a hero, but instead wound up getting bit by the consequences of his own actions. Esiner wasn't the best, but Disney was still doing well until Iger took over in 2005..then, the Obama Era came, between 2008-2016 is when the collpase of everything began. "Gamer gate", Ghost busters, the death of comedy, the introduction of DEI etc...ALL blew up in those years....as well as the beginings of Disney's fall.
