Great, hopefully that'll see the end of replacing characters from European myths with pathetic race-swaps in the name fake diversity. Maybe they can follow that by firing whoever keeps thinking that shitty (semi) live-action remakes of their stuff is a good idea.

They still have the Latina Snow White to come out…wondering what they’ve done to the seven dwarves in that…I’m predicting sex and race swaps of at least one.

The failure of Pinocchio (with, ignoring the race-swap, the ugliest bald blue fairy), the disasterous loss of The Little Mermaid and the upcoming failure of Snow White, I think live action remakes might be quietly stopped.

The flop of Elemental and Lightyear also highlight the disaster it was firing John Lassiter for dubious reasons.

Indiana Jones 5 is set to lose astronomical amounts of money (they brought in Phoebe “Franchise Killer” Waller Bridge), they resorted to having Harrison Ford beg fans to go see it this weekend.

Star Wars is dead, they’ve gone full desperation and announced they’re bringing back Rey for a movie. Star Wars Acolyte looks and sounds like it is going to be literal AIDS and their one moderately successful Star Wars IP “The Mandalorian” just shit the bed in Season 3.

Marvel is in deep trouble having lost money on Antman 3 ($476m global box office on a reported $200m budget) and even Guardians 3 was only a muted success ($822m global box office on a, some say, underreported $250m budget). They’ve sacked their “big bad” actor for putting hands on a woman and have been forced to push back TV shows and films for cost reasons and their brand new show “Secret Invasion” hasn’t even aired yet and the critics have shat on it.

Disney is fucked, they even fired the woman who was set to be the next CEO, the current CFO.

If I were Bob Iger I would be implementing “Project Based” across all IPs and kicking the Alphabet and feminist crowd out, because they’re the ones who have run the company down into the ground. Disney was riding high when it catered to what little girls wanted with its Disney Princesses and let Marvel make movies for little boys, and Star Wars would have been massive if they had just gone with fan favourites and brought in Timothy Zahn to adapt his Heir to the Empire trilogy for older Luke, Leia and Han.

And Indiana Jones 5 just didn’t need to be made at all. They could have made a Young Indy TV show, reviving the old 1990s show that was fun and sadly cancelled too soon.

What I’m trying to say is:

ClassroomPast6178 for Disney CEO
