It’s not just the Wokeness, Disney also had little to no script or storyboards for “Thor: Love & Thunder” and “Secret: Invasion”. I believe the director of “Secret Invasion” said they put the story together in editing! Question answers: 1. I don’t see Disney recovering any time soon because they are attached to Woke activism. 2. “Snow White” will be the next huge flop. 3. “Ant-Man” was probably the least offensive.

[@laser__unicorn]

But this is a problem that stems from 'wokeness', the emphasis is on using the movie/show as a propaganda vehicle and so the focus on actual writing is lost.

@@michaelkarimian7538 I suggest sitting back and enjoying the movies in chronological order. Raiders is a great homage to classic radio dramas temple of doom might have a little too much screaming but is really fun. Third movie caps off the religious through line of the original trillogy.

All of them are IMO as good as Kingdom of the Crystal skull.

What would completely wipe Disney out is if the KZbinr Meatcanyon and other independent animators sign with Universal.

[@Samsapopin]

The car accident metaphor is a bit of an understatement. Disney has been mostly an ongoing parade accident for awhile now. Outside of GotG 3 (& Avatar 2), they've pretty much became a trainwreck of a parade; in which the Grand Marshall is blaming the watchers for either ruining the parade or not coming to see it. Meanwhile, they're ignoring the fact that they overpaid on the floats, thinking that they appeal to certain people, but then the floats either crash or they don't see the people that the floats are supposed to appeal to.

All Disney can really take 'total' credit for might be the music/songs. Hell, the list of ORIGINAL Disney properties would be shorter! And if you think about it, haven't Disney ALWAYS been 'groomers'. They've been trying to 'trick' young boys into becoming fans of MUSICALS from the beginning! lol

Yeah, I think the Studios had a few HUGE HITS and convinced themselves that if they invested $200 Million on any big CGI heavy movie then they could generate $1.5 BILLION box office and profit around $1 BILLION on every movie. They no longer seem satisfied with bothering to produce projects like Sound of Freedom with $15 Million production budgets that generate $130 Million box office and only result in $100 Million of profit... I mean they'd need TEN 'hits' like Sound of Freeedom to equal the profits from ONE lucky $200 Million budgeted & $1.5 Billion Box Office earning hit movie!

Now I can’t speak for Barbie, but I know that Mario did so well because it gave us exactly what we wanted. No subverting our expectations (aside from video game movie curse); no putting Mario down and making him a bit character in his own movie; no reimaginings that make characters unrecognisable. It’s just a simple yet fun story about two Brooklyn-Italian plumbers beating up a giant fire-breathing turtle.

1. Disney has a business model problem, and a culture problem. It's too big, too many different units, all with their own drivers, risks, customers, and no cohesion. Overspending with poor results is a symptom, but the cause is deeper. 2. The last MCU thing I enjoyed was Black Widow. I know, I'm not proud. Ant-Man was dire. 3. I'm looking forward to Bob Iger's star performance in the investor call tomorrow. If he's not persuasive about vision and fixing problems, they'll bail. That's basically it for Disney, as the banks and bondholders will pull credit. As DIS cannot run on revenue (lol, are you serious!? there is none, except pocket chain at the parks), they must run on credit. At what price?

The problem with Disney is they hire ACTIVIST, and activist pander to broken people or losers who blame others for their failures and refuse to change themselves. Activist always pander to those people because they are easy to manipulate and can convince them to vote or support a socialist cause. However they don't buy merch and normally don't see movies more then once. That's why they are going broke. They need to pander to dreamers people who dream in a better future and work to have a better future like old star wars fans and star trek fans and old marvel fans. Believing in a bright future and superhero is what positive people do .And that's why those Hollywood idiots call old school fans losers.

I had high hopes for Secret Invasion but I only made it an episode and half. AM3 was not good and I haven't seen the other two. I'm hoping Ashoka will be good but I don't have any faith in Skeleton Crew or The Acolyte being good. Depending on how Ashoka goes will determine when I cancel my D+ subscription, during or after.

Cant wait till your comic is available in the 🇬🇧.

I heard some kids around 10 years old talking about movies, and one question was asked, Anyone want to go see The Little Mermaid? And one of them spouted off, no Disney suxx! And there you have it, right from out the mouths of babes! The market that Disney once catered to? Now totally disliking it! That is also hurting their parks for the first time as well, with all the flops the magic has gone out of the magic kingdom, and I think too much has gone on and the time has past, where Disney can fix it and it's just a matter of time when the fire sale happens? Oh! It already has, well then Disney has only themselves to blame!

Disney needs to relearn what it knew under Walt. It doesn't matter how good a story is. As long as you tell it well there will be an audience. Disney is having losses because all they have been telling since 2021 is political agenda, stories are flavor and background accents. They have hit the end of padding with talent drawing eye balls. That coffin was built with Aladdin's remake and is nailed tight with Secret Invasion. Walt cared about telling the story his way, for as many people as possible. The politics at Disney are, even before filming, shutting out anyone not aligned with it. Even some people who are for the agenda are now wondering if the stories are being lost. Take Mulan and its tonal contrast. The story, the bare bones story, was a coming of age tale of a girl taking on the life of a man to save her father from certain death. And the Triumph of even her nation's emperor excusing her breaking of their taboos to save the entire country. Where is her growth? Where is her fear of being found out? Where is her comic relief? You know Eddie Murphey's Mushu from Disney's first take on this script who highlighted her problems and kept the story on point for the audience. They even had warning of how losing that loses the point with the direct to DVD sequel. Disney needs people who love stories and know what the story means for the main character again. Then maybe some Directors who will listen to them. Can they pull off a comeback. Maybe, but they have to get back to trying to be for everyone again. And seeing anyone as an enemy because of politics is just going to poison that apple.

Next is Bambie and Zorro.

I don't see Woke Disney succeeding at another Seargent Garcia, he was repeatedly an alcoholic that was fat shamed just for starters. And its really hard to get up to Guy Williams quality in the role. I think only Anthony Hopkins came close since.

6:50 That poster...that's not Secret Invasion...that's Hobo with a shotgun 2 =P

[@paulparker1360]

Off white and the seven pronouns...😂😂😂😂 that's perfect 😂😂😂

[@SlashTheWeasel]

It will take a lot of hard work on Disney's end to recover which I wonder they can do even do. They have ruined so many franchises and movies that I don't even bother to go see them anymore. All Disney had to do is good stories and nurture their franchises and they would not have been in the shit show they are in now. Reason why Lucus sold Star Wars cause he's getting old and doesn't want to spend what he has left in life to make movies so he hoped Disney would carry out his vision. They could have too but . . . build up whatever characters Lucas has and go. Marvel: so much Disney could have done with FF and X-Men. Bit of reboot to Marvel without destroying what came before.

[@nstooge]

Dang, I almost feel responsible for Disney loosing all that money. I didn’t go to see any of those flops. Almost…. Bwaaa ha ha haaa!

[@Black_Revue]

I like this Year of the Disney FLOP

[@zalkebjones4917]

1 NO 2 Marvels 3 Didn't see any of them

[@stevenperrell7217]

You saying Dial of Destiny was better than Crystal Skull was hilarious....hilariously wrong too.

[@darricksulfridge2574]

burn Disney burn. 🔥

[@xheralt]

Must be nice, having that much money they CAN piss away. Just think what that billion could have done if it were actually circulating in the economy, paid out as wages, taken back for goods and services, paid out again as wages, and so forth instead of sitting locked away in some accountant's ledger?

[@AnnieBeanie]

The only one I've seen is Antman because I like Paul Rudd...but his kid in the movie puts me off so much I don't know if i will be watching anymore lol

[@kenjifox4264]

They’ll call him billion dollar Bob

[@Khultan]

*The beginning of the end began in the year of 2012 by CEO Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy.*

[@mattd5240]

GOTG 3 was the marvel/ disney movie I've seen and may ever see.

[@MrTobi013]

Stealing Solo can't be real. That's freaking hilarious!!😂

[@johndurham6172]

I haven't watched any Disney movies in a long while. They're talking about rebooting the MCU so we will see.

[@Bidimus1]

But.. no Star Wars movie flop... Oh they did not make one "interesting game the only way to win is not to play" Joshua (War Games)
