- In light of recent STAR WARS Controversy, I've come to realize why Disney blames the fans for all its failures.

Disney believe they are too big to fail. Let's do our best to prove them wrong.
it's sad when a corporation forgets who made them who they are😊
The power of manyyyy 😂😂😂
That's exactly it.
@@snarkyjay*brainwashed humming* mannnnnnyyyyyyy
Oh A boycott is so in order. Bud Lt style.
Read a comment a while back that said “the girls that used to bully us for liking Star Wars are now in charge of it”, and that is probably the most accurate description of what’s happening here.
PERFECT 😂!!
Completely agree with that statement
Wrong group of girls. The girls that liked Star wars used to bully the girls that are writing Star wars now.
You forgot "Dr. Who".
For most my life sci-fi and comic books were considered a nerd thing that most women wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole (yeah I know a small percentage like my wife liked it, but that was unusual)…. Until they became billion dollar industry with a lot of power and prestige attached to them… then all of a sudden a bunch of progressive feminists suddenly came out of the woodwork and felt entitled to take it over…. And they immediately ran it into the ground.
The fact that Leslye Headland is painting the Sith as misunderstood heroes is Frigging HILARIOUS!! Oh, the irony.
Haha! How right you are! Hadn't thought of it that way 😄🤯
Lucas having literally designed the Sith in the image of the n*zi of WW2, we can wonder if Leslye Headlund thinks the same thing about the original?
Ahhh fkn toxic feminist
Irony that's lost on her😂
I just stopped watching Disney wars. Only episode 1-6 matter to me.
Rogue One was pretty good. That’s about it. 💯👍🏾
I always wonder why people who are so apathetic even watch videos like this? You don’t wanna fight for what you love then why even bother wasting your time here?
And Fanboys
Agreed
@@stephaniejaniczekssmugglerscanbecause… I want to? Watching this trainwreck from the sidelines is entertaining,
I took my little brother to go see Rise of Skywalker in theaters because I'm the one who introduced him to Star Wars and he asked me to take him. I genuinely think that was the last time I spent any money on Disney Star Wars. As a black man, and more relevant to topic at hand, a lifetime Star Wars fan, the complete disregard for the legacy and fans of this franchise cannot be forgiven. Race and gender were never a problem in Star Wars until Disney got their hands on it. They will burn everything to the ground before they admit that they failed to capitalize on the most profitable fictional franchise in history.
It was a money printing machine, when i saw how much they paid i shrugged and said "its not that much theyll make it back in a year or 2", if only i knew what they wore gonna do with it
Well said.
I personally thought mace windu was one of my fav Jedi of all time, I’m
White. Idgaf about the race of the person but why are all new stories about girls and shit. If it wasn’t smeared in our faces we wouldn’t care
@ThisIsSparta300 that's what I hated most about the Daisy Riddley trilogy. The first one was alright. If you take in to account, she was a Mary Sue from the start. Seriously she went from a no name nobody scavenger to flying the fucking Millennium Falcon in like 10 minutes. No training needed. But she'd never left the planet before?
Then she goes from baby force user to being a Jedi Master in less than a movie. No training needed. Then they tanked Luke Skywalker while killing off the entire original cast in the most idiotic ways possible. Aside from Space Jesus Leia, that is. And don't even get me started on them literally killing everyone who was an actual Skywalker all so Rey fucking PALPATINE could steal the name.
It's fucking sad.
@@stephenadkins616I love how you said "the first one was alright" meaning The Force Awakens and then proceeded to explain part of why it's so bad. And there are many other reasons. It's a cheap demake of A New Hope.
The Force Awakens wasn't good when it came out and it still isn't good now.
It’s crazy to think that WB was able to create House of the Dragon, a female lead story with a diverse cast, great writing, directing, effects and acting for the same money as this dumpster fire Disney made out of Star Wars.
The juxtaposition of these two shows, releasing at the same time, is blowing my mind every week.
Ummm have you SEEN House of the Dragon?
Extremely bland through and through.
@@kfitz2711 certainly entitled to your opinion. You are in the large, large minority. Best to you internet stranger.
Yeah... I don't know about that one Chief... Season 2 has been COOKING!@@kfitz2711
It's mad, i've been watching the Acolyte and House of the Dragon in tandem, and the SHEER DIFFERENCE IN QUALITY is like night and day.
Like Jim Carrey said: “Hollywood are not the cool kids anymore”………………….and they don’t realize that.
Hollywoke
Blaming the fans for the failure of the a show or movie is the worst excuse ever. It's like a chef getting mad at the customer for not liking the steak he prepared when the customer ordered the chicken.
that music video is so pathetic
when an actor/actress has to defend the show thats bombing by literally insulting those they're supposedly "entertaining" you know its bad
And at the same time trying to use her body to get people to watch it by gyrating half naked. Its just pitiful.
I try not to be a cancel person, but considering the disgusting, horrific crimes of Ms Leslye Headland, it's hard to imagine watching anything she was a part of.
You're not a cancel person if you don't consume a product you don't like. You're entitled to your opinion, and you have the right to share your opinion with anyone. It becomes a problem when people try to silence others. You're not telling others to shut up. You're not trying to suppress anyone's right to free speech. Even if you say those who disagree with you are dumb, wrong, etc., you're not trying to silence them. Contrast that with DEIsney. They are actively engaged in trying to silence those who speak out against them...
@@MSgt5J071 Thank-you.
DSW defenders are currently sweeping for her all over the place. I saw one person claim "She only worked for him for a year" as if she knew nothing while spending a year working as personal assistant to the biggest monster in Hollywood history. The gaslighting is infuriating. And all to protect a space tv show.
@@phonepunk7888 If they really cared about metoo, would they really have hired her?
@@phonepunk7888DSW? Like the clothing store?
Disney have been doing this since tlj came out. They can't accept any blame or criticism whatsoever. Instead they'll use buzzwords and attacks on fans to defend their low effort, intentionally insulting shows.
As a former Disney Studios employee, you are spot on with the narcissism accusation. Everyone who works there in leadership roles feels they are the arbiters of good movies, so anything they sign off on MUST be amazing in their minds. It's the main reason why I left as it was around 2019 and started to see this steep decline beginning, as just saw a bunch narcissists deciding "we know best!" While heading in the wrong direction
The Disney board is trying to replace the old "toxic" Star War fans with new "democratic" Star War fans that franculy don't even exist.
"Democratic" isn't even the correct label, otherwise everyone would have a voice, including the classic fans. They want a gay audience. They insist upon gayness in our faces and when we look away, they freak out, despite telling us it isn't for us. There's nothing wrong with gay people, but they are a tiny sliver of the population, despite what the shows try to portray. It isn't a big enough audience even at its maximum, and they aren't even getting that maximum, particularly when they are driving away their already massive audience in favor of it. It's downright criminally negligent as officers of a publicly-traded company.
Seems wild to me to spend $4 billion to buy Star Wars and then ignore the fans when they tell you what they want to see
Because they are social engineers. That's what happens when the elites try to mold society (and particularly all those young, impressionable minds) into what they want it be. The Star Wars brand is a good way to get that messaging out.
You can view their products as top-down edicts, and you, the plebs are required to conform to this new kind of "story telling" and the ideologies within it, or you're an Istaphobe, irrelevant, obsolete. The audience is there to be re-educated, not entertained.
Ideology is priceless to them. They bought Lucas out to destroy his legacy
Once you understand and accept they do not care about making money, then it will start to make sense. Its called social engineering. And sooner or later everyone will have to pick a side.
@@spartanx169xThey do care about money they just don't care about the current fans. They think they're playing the long game by social engineering the younger generations, think they'll grab them for life vs the aging out fans.
Problem is in reality, the younger generation does not give a shit about Disney.
I heard they're trying to sell SW back to George Lucas for millions.
Narcissism think they are the main character in life's movie/tv show, and blame others than take accountability.. and the unfortunate thing is that the internet glorifies that behavior as empowering, and standing up for yourself and to 'ignore the haters'.
The thing about Bud Light (AB Inbev) is they never fully recovered, despite them putting out good ol' boy commercials and sponsoring UFC. Year over year sales were down 27% in the first quarter of 2024.
If you anger the people that cared most about your brand, they won't ever come back. After years of support, I won't ever watch anything put out by Disney, Disney Lucasfilm, Disney Marvel, or BBC Doctor Who. The only chance these properties have of getting me back is to sell the property to another company that doesn't have broken creatives.
That has been ongoing due to the rise of craft beers and just other quality companies that just make beer for a similar price. Not that the commercial helped.
I feel like South park said it best. A moment that was about Cartman but can apply to Disney Star Wars in this circumstance. ''People like Cartman always make things someone else's fault. We wrongly see ourselves as the victim sometimes, but Cartman sees himself as the victim all the time. He'll always find someone to blame for his shortcomings, and because of that, he's never going to change.''
Funny thing is that this can equally apply to the fandom menace as well. Yall constantly keep saying you're the victim when you're the ones shouting "dei hire" constantly. I'm sorry, but times change.
Put a chick in it and make it gay!
@JustSayin2216 This is a prime example of what was just said lol absolutely no accountability on your part.
The only way this stops is if people stop watching Disney Star Wars all together. Views gives them another season. Hate watching actually helps them no matter what it's rated by critics and audiences. Velma is a terrible show as well but it's getting a second season for that exact reason.
They're taking their losses out on tourists: just keep on raising prices at theme parks and people keep on paying. Its how they get away with messaging nonsense
Not anymore though: Disney parks prices have been raised to the point where the "common people" can no longer afford to go visit them and therefore visitor numbers are declining. In reaction to that Disney raises the prices yet again and even more people can no longer afford it, creating a vicious circle. Ironically, this is what Bob Chapek (remember him?) warned against when he was "running" Disney.
@@tjroelsma well we'd LIKE to think they would pay attention but clearly that isn't happening. NO idea what it will take before they effect change
@@andrewlowden322 I believe that's at least partially down to Bob Iger having made his bed and now having to lie in it. Iger expanded Disney immensely during his run as CEO by buying all those franchises and/or studios. He then had the illusion that he could switch to being a politician and therefore catered to the Far-Left activists; the deal in my opinion being that HE would usher them into key positions within Disney and they would support his political aspirations. That deal went south though: as soon as the activists had dug into Disney, they dropped Iger like a hot potato.
The irony is that now Iger's back, after trying to shift the blame for HIS failures on Chapek, but probably to his chagrin, it's the activists who are running Disney, NOT Bobby Iger.
Right up until the market for their parks collapses.
Snarky. I 200 percent agree with you. I think what makes this situation even worse, is the fact that Disney has failed to use the material that…. IS ALREADY WRITTEN FOR THEM! Not that hard people. Not that hard. Just stick to the Star Wars material that previous Star Wars writers have written for us. Not. That. Hard.
The Timothy Zahn books would have made an amazing episode 7, 8 and 9... And Mara Jade would have been an incredible female character onscreen.
They *_have_* used it… through inferior knockoffs:
Jacen Solo and Ben Skywalker? Kylo, a.k.a. Ben Solo.
Jaina Solo? Rey.
Cade Skywalker? "Jake."
Dark Empire? Rise Of Skywalker.
Heir To The Empire? Ahsoka show.
Etc.
Absolutely spot on! They are rapidly tapping out the reputational successes and goodwill of their past - not realizing that it is a reservoir, not a spring fed fountain. And thus can be drained dry. Admire your intelligence, wit and ability!
Disney: Entertainment by Bigots for Bigots
Edit: Those types of interruptions are always welcome.
Amen to that.
Underrated comment. 👏👏👏
This is the first channel I've ever seen point out what many seem to miss. The ultimate narrsassim from which this ALL stems from. Thank you Jay for sharing the truth. Keep up the fabulous work. Its not easy getting to the nitty-gritty of it all.
A key element of narcissism is the inability to even ask the most basic questions about one's own failure.
Disney's trying to completely change the culture of this world and shape it in their image. They are not gods who hold all this power over us, I'm at the point where Disney Star Wars isn't canon because those who work at Lucasfilm (and Disney for that matter) aren't people who understand the source material. They hate when fans point out the OBVIOUS plot holes/issues with their shows because they couldn't spend 10 minutes looking stuff up before making this garbage. Keep up the good work Jay, you'll be at 1 Million in no time!
Disney Lucasfilm do not care about SW lore. They are wearing SW like a skin suit to disguise their attempts to recruit new members to their religion, aka the ‘modern audience’.
The new Coke fiasco of the 80s is another good example. Coca cola realized they screwed up and apologized. The consumers returned. Why is that so hard for Disney to understand???
Coke sells soda, not communication. Disney's value is as a mouthpiece for The Revolution.
@@Mangolorian-je3eo It's not even a revolution, it's a religion trying to force itself on the world.
I use that analogy all the time!!! Yes that is what a company SHOULD do.
That is actually Denial. Denial is a type of defense mechanism that involves ignoring the reality of a situation to avoid anxiety. Defense mechanisms are strategies that people use to cope with distressing feelings. In the case of denial, it can involve not acknowledging reality or denying the consequences of that reality. Very important to note is that you can avoid reality, but not the consequences of denying reality
People tend to forget that even though these are large companies there's usually only a handful of people making these types of decisions, and yes, those people are flat out narcissists.
Why would anybody put a narcississt in charge of anything? They are not exactly productive or rational.
Just looked in the dictionary and saw K Kennedy's picture illustrating the narcissist entry. However, want to thank her for all the cash I've made shorting DIS stock.
Fans: "We don't like the Obi Wan show because of bad writing."
Disney: "You just don't like white men!"
Kathleen Kennedy: "Hold on, we're okay with that. But remember, we have Reva."
Disney: "Oh yeah, you're right. They just don't like black women."
I just don't like crapping on the original trilogy, just so Disney can poop out another TV series! Remember Leia looking at Obi-Wan getting murdered and going, "No! We went on a long, stupid adventure together, when I was a kid!" NOPE, she was like, "Who's the geezer? Why does this guy who just saved me look like he's about to cry?"
Bud Light's attempts to recover were lackluster, to say the least. Check out Tractor Supply debacle. Now, that is a company that apologized correctly.
The problem with arrogant people (disney) is that they think they are right about everything. That is why they will NOT listen to criticism. They double down because they are incapable of admitting they are wrong. Can you believe there are people in this world that are THAT arrogant. I am sure their tombstone will say " I am still right".
They're that arrogant until the fist of common sense goes saling towards their mouth. Disney has taken some hits but they need that fist to REALLY come flying in to spark any sort of actual 'change' or response that isn't written like some highschool cunt.
I think Kennedy got control and just thought she could do better than George and Steven, her hubris ruined SW and Indy.
All this attacking the fans might help them keep anyone from daring to cancel their shows.
Disney Official: The Acolyte is not getting a second season.
Screeching KK: YOU'RE ON THE SIDE OF THE TOXIC MEN!
Fans are not the problem. Pushing a unwanted agenda has taken over every franchise. Movies, gaming, television. It's all being ruined.
Bud Light never took responsibility. They swept it under the rug like it never really happened. But the customers remember how they were not addressed and were only taken for granted.
Aren’t they still down 30%? People moved onto other beers
And most will never go back.@@richtes
Go spray some cans neckbeard.
Budweiser may not have used those exact words "We messed up and wer're sorry." but the about-face they did in terms of the marketing campaign to rescue the brand was extraordinarily swift, widespread and no doubt very costly. They got the message from their fans alright and they did something about it.
Was the main issue just having Dylan Mulvaney repping Bud Light or was there more to the original marketing campaign?
I'm pretty sure kitty is not sorry for interrupting, haha. What a cutie!
A recent example of a company listening to their customers is Tractor Supply Company. When it was made public that the company was big into DEI. Within a week they did a 180 and publicly denounced all DEI programs.
Yup. At least they retracted.
Lucid Dreaming.
@@stormshadowctf Shouldn't that be "re-tractored"? 😄
It's just such a sad state of affairs what has happened to Star Wars and just Disney and their IPs in general. I really do try to give their shows and movies a chance but with the Acolyte I just couldn't anymore. It's just so unbearable and as you said, Disney and their infinite wisdom blames the REAL fans for their failures. What's really sad, too, is for those with kids who really should be enjoying what the real essence of Disney used to be. That "essence" is gone and has been for a long time.
I feel like Disney is that astronauts looking at earth while the other is holding a gun saying "always has been" meme. Since my childhood, I've always disliked Disney, and my first thoughts when they acquired Star Wars was "so this is how Star Wars dies, in a thunderous applause." Though I gave them a chance with TFA, TLJ was the nail in the coffen for me, and ROS was the 6 feet of dirt being shoved all over the corpse of something I once held as special (despite some issues with the prequels). I'm just glad others are finally realizing it.
Its a bit of a confusing mess. Why would Ewan McGregor and others in the popular media put out calls on fans to stop spreading racial hate? Makes me wonder what the execs and the celebs associated with SW are really hearing on this Disney SW fans controversy. Cheers to SJ for keeping a same voice to this mess 💪💪
The general unwillingness to accept personal responsibility or have a basic level of humility. And its lack of these personality traits that is really at the heart of the demise of StarWars and other famous brands.
One thing about Budlight, initially they tried to go the Disney way and it spectacularly backfired on them. That's when they backtracked
Disney: "We'll change star wars into a crazed-KOOK nightmare!!! AND YOU WILL LIKE IT!!!!" **NO ONE LIKES IT** ... DISNEY: **FREAKS OUT**
The problem with Star wars right now is Kathleen Kennedy. There have been some glimmers of Hope but most of what has been released under her shows a complete disregard of what made Star wars the epic that it is. They need to give her The $100 million parachute and cut her loose.
They demand our praise rather than seek out what benefits their fans. Great job J.
What they want is validation of their politics, their identities, their grievances. For too many, these days, anything short of fawning validation - even tolerance, the idea that we should live and let live - is regarded as an act of violence, the moral equivalent of genocide.
Jay, Anheiser Busch (US owner of Budweiser) didn't back track on the Bud Light 2023 fiasco. They tried to double down very early on, then went silent on the issue and tried changing their marketing (which you described). Had they back tracked and apologised instead of trying to misdirect and memory hole their beer would likely still be in the top 3 by sales in North America. Tractor Supply recently suffered a similar issue and they did backtrack and apologise, which has seemed to go over well with their customers. The problem with Disney is that it doesn't understand itself, its market, or how it is designed to create intergenerational revenue streams selling stuff to people they don't need, often can't own, and keep them coming back for more.
I think Disney should take a cultural item from our past, disrespect it and twist it and then cry victim when those of us offended by such disrespect speak out against this careless and obtuse sacrilege. Oh wait, they already did that?
Glad that you have come to this realization. As soon as someone blames you for not approving of their choices or beliefs, you can write them off. They will not understand HOW you could not see them as special. These people, and companies, are WEAK and feel they NEED protection.
I stopped watching Disney a lonnggg time ago. It's not like it was growing up in the 80's and 90's.
Narcissism is a real problem in any “kind” of relationship. I’m afraid social media tends to make us crave the “likes” and “emojis” and we don’t try to self evaluate
And the funny thing, they call everything negative as "review bombing", and now they are doing a "positive review bombing" to their trashy show.
Thank you! Someone else has beef with Outback! They don't know how to get the temperature right and they waaay oversalt their meat. I refuse to eat there.
They’re gross! I do like a Bloomin’ Onion though.
@snarkyjay just a glorified onion ring. Kraft breading is the secret btw.
Thinking about what you said, you're right. Outback does over salt their meat. If you've ever been to a Brazilian steakhouse they do a far, far better job with that.
You hit the nail right on the head. What this comes down to is their ego and pride. They know fans have finally caught up to their agendas and garbage products. They are just too egotistical, too prideful to admit it. First it was just about pushing the agendas lame shows and movies. Now they're doing to spite the fans. Which is why we have to instead on COMPLAINING about the product. We have to STOP WATCHING the product all together unless it warrants attention ( Deadpool & Wolverine for example). They will lose tons and tons of money, they will have no choice but to change their course of action...unless their willing to go out of business for the sake of an agenda...
Bud Light actually doubled down for a while until the shareholders started to threaten legal repercussions for tanking Anheuser-Bush shares. The boycott lasted almost 6 months.
Excellent video! Best analysis of the narcissists running Disney yet. The problem with narcissists in general and Disney narcissists in particular (and in Spades!) is that they are unaware of and will never admit to, their narcissism. Disney can only be fixed from the outside. Iger the Terrible and his High Priestesses of Woke cannot do it.
"The customer is always right *in matters of taste." Use the whole quote, and its not so insane.
Agreed, although the use of proper punctuation has unfortunately meant your bold text isn't working.
With Disney Star Wars, it's as if they bought a McDonald's restaurant, gutted the inside and completely changed the menu without changing the exterior or the sign out on the road and then act surprised and angry when people came in looking for Big Macs and chicken mcnuggets. And then doubled down and said the people complaining about the food were bigots because the staff behind the counter were "diverse" and "progressive".
Hate your customers. They disappear.
Disney still earns too much money from their parks. BUT!! Mid to long term it's going to be a DISASTER for them! 🔥🔥🔥
Disney has better things to do with their time, instead of insulting their audience. Like returning to the quality of the Mandalorian season 1 and 2, and recuperating that ridiculous $180 million loss in producing The Acolyte.
Weeeell, the Bud light story may not be a good example, because they waited way to long and never apologized. The Brand is now completly destroyed.
There are people who do enjoy this show and others entirely because of the diverse cast and messaging. 1) Maybe Disney is appealing to that audience by shaming traditional fans and maybe they are actually making money from it. 2) From a raw marketing data perspective, all engagement looks the same. It is probably really hard for Disney to measure the actual impact of the critical voices. Loud feedback makes things trend on the internet regardless if it is negative or positive. Again, this strategy might be working for them.
I think it speaks to a lack of vision at Disney. Ever since Frank Wells died in 1994 Disney has been a vision-less mess, floating aimlessly from one social cause to the next, all while maximizing profit to absurd degrees. It’s something I’ve thought about a lot. Our problems started with Eisner’s downward spiral in the mid-90s and they have yet to fix it. Iger was not the savior, he has no vision beyond ever-increasing prices for content and amusements.
It’s a shame. It’s a big damn shame.
Disney makes dumptrucks of money from the parks. The entertainment division adds 2% to the bottom line. No one is stopping their attendance at the parks. Nothing will change. The thing you loved is dead. Get used to it and move on.
Took my daughters to DW 14 years ago. Can’t image going now with the app nonsense and all the fees.
ehhhh but they've priced out the average consumer these days though. Attendance has gone down
One of the most saddest aspects of the way Disney handles Star Wars & Marvel that I've noticed in the last several years is how they don't even highlight that the particular director, writter or actor are even fans that want to help enhance said franchise. Instead it's just about "oh yeah this person was from a popular show/movie isn't that cool?"
I'm always fascinated that these companies buy IPs for their built in audience, then completely rejects the built in audience .
Yes. Disney thinks they are leaders in children entertainment. That's why there was a naked Sith and a perv Jedi in episode six. Children love that stuff.
There is only one thing, a consumer can do in such a situation ....
.... and it is not "just consume product".
I dont hate women, i dont hate anyones skin colour, i hate Disney. Simple as that.
Disney in a nutshell is the scenes from an episode of South Park when Kyle moves to San Francisco and every adult was getting high off their own farts.
Disney's the people getting high off their own farts.
I think you really hit the nail on the head here. This is probably one of the best explanations I've heard besides blanket "they're just woke" statements (although I think it's a combination of both of these things). In fact, I'm going to take it a step further here: I think Wokeism and Leftism attracts narcissists because it caters to their ego.
Still dont get why the Jedi don't disappear when they die like Obi, Yoda, and Luke.
Those 3 knew a special force power. The others didn't. I think it said that somewhere in a book or comic or novelization or something.
This is actually a very good point: Disney is incapable of accepting feedback and criticism from fans, and will instead blame the fans.
Textbook narcissism.
Well done, great points.
Disney: “you know what’s wrong with the paying customer??? They’re wrong!!!”
Preach on Snarky Jay! Disney will rue the day they started peddling this garbage.
LETS GO SNARKYVERSE!!!!!!
LFG
Hi. I just started watching your channel a few days ago and enjoy it. I laughed so hard during your reading mean comments videos! BTW, I'm also a half breed but only half Hispanic. I also appreciate there are beeps during the cussing.
Disney got mad at South Park for saying that they always "put a chick in it, and make her gay." Then what do they do with EVERY show? They put a chick in it and make her gay.
OK, this is my opinion. I don’t think Disney hates Star Wars fans. I do think that Kathleen Kennedy does because I’ve been told that by people who are connected and I know Leslye Harveys former PA Legohead does.
I think they’re all together on this tbh.
And yet none above KK or those who know her had the integrity to tell her to course correct from the look of things
Disney hates all the popular Ip's that the majority of fans love and want to destroy them with their activism. This virus is affecting a lot of entertainment. Hollywood will eventually burn to the ground.
@ 7:30 Please don't include Star Wars Theory in this conversation. The guy is a Dave Filoni shill and has the mind of a 6 year old. He still to this day cannot accept the fact that Dave Filoni signed off everything we are seeing in Acolyte. Not to mention he initially loved the sequels. He only "changed his mind" about them when Pablo Hidalgo made fun of him for crying in the Mandalorian season 2 finale because of key jangling Luke and Theory read the room that no one likes the sequels besides shills so he said he doesn't like them. All you gotta do is jangle some keys with Anakin/Vader, Jedi/Sith, cameos, The Force and he is like "yeah this is good Star Wars!". Guy wouldn't know good writing and character development if it hit him in the face.
@7:35 Please don't compare yourself to Tyrone Magnus. You are amazing and can form your own train of thought and come up with valid criticism. Tyrone Magnus just jumps on the bandwagon of what's in and goes with that. He saw its "cool to hate on Star Wars" and did the same. Also only 7 year olds watch react videos these days. He can't give you a valid criticism of why he doesn't like something. Not to mention he compared PC gamers to a certain group of people back in 1940's Germany. Guy is a clown.
Otherwise great points you made.
There's one name Disney/lucas film never talks about Ming-na Wen. That's bc we love her, from street fighter to agents of shield to book of Boba Fett. Speaking of the book of boba fett, nobody from Disney/lucas film, or the shill media talks about how much that series was disliked. Why's that? bc that's one of many that destroys their narrative.
I've had an authority figure be an abusive narcisist for almost 30 years to me, his family, and anyone else that didn't stop calling him out for what he was doing. This is exactly what Gisney is doing.
Aww pretty little kitty!
This reminds me when Disney sold Power Rangers back to Saban, a podcaster once said something that stuck with me when I first heard it:
“Disney has no respect for anything that they did not create themselves, and even with championing the brand internally, they’re not going to gain any traction because of the corporate culture.”
In many ways that was a red flag for those of us who didn’t realize what Disney would do with IPs they didn’t create.
Keep up the great work Snarky!
The customer is always right. That should be the very first lesson every business needs to learn from day one. Even a major corporation like Disney. If we the customers do not like your product then we will not waste our money to pay for it. Simple as that.
It’s a result of company culture, starting at the top. What does Bob Iger say on Disney’s corporate calls? He blames Bob Chapek, who was only CEO for 11 months (and inherited Iger’s mess).
The little lady is forgiven for meowing. It's no trouble at all 😊
She hits the nail on the head. Everytime. I can't believe disney is going down this path. When it comes to the pocketbook, I thought all corporations are about profits 1st? When they started losing money, I thought disney would right the ship, how wrong I was.🤦♂️
Exactly, I keep saying this to myself over the years. Aren't businesses about making money first? Almost every product Disney has put out over the years has been a loss for them and not a small loss either. Its like hundred of millions. They are bleeding money but don't care for some reason.
@joshwhite557 For some reason, they are on some woke addiction, and they seem to probably think it's righteous, stunning, and brave. The whole disney company truly is the textbook definition of narcissist. They know the fans are upset. They really just don't care at this point. And we are all ist's, bigots, sexist, transphobic, and mysoginistic, middle aged white men. They really don't understand that star wars was already diverse. The fan base is diverse. They just are completely out of touch and don't know there own fan base. It sucks cause we get shit content in the mean time.
Happy Friday Jay
You too Alfred!
Disney has become the epitome of "biting the hand that feeds you".
Cats should never apologize for wanting to be the center of attention. That why the internet exists.
Great analogy Snarky Jay, loved the time you put in to the research and tied it back to the Disney narcissistic mentality. As consumers we have the right to spend our money how we wish. If you lay a bad dish on the table at a restaurant and then chastise us for not liking it we won’t go back and eventually you will go out of business.
You've got the right diagnosis.
What we as disappointed and insulted fans can do is withhold our trade.
Don't watch. Don't buy.
And eventually they'll stop.
If Disney's position on blaming the consumer came from marketing, they should fire the employee responsible.
They did fire their marketing team - but they're still producing shit!
They need to fire their CEO, writers, actors & management too.
I'm one of the original Star Wars fans from 1977 and we, as fans, gave it life. We, as fans, put George Lucas and the Star Wars franchise on the map to stay. We bought the tickets, we bought the toys and other merchandise. We look forward to comic con every year because of the relationship the franchise had with the convention. We gave it life and now we are taking it back. We no longer watch the movies and tv shows. We are not buying the toys and other merchandise made by Disney. Disney can hate the fans all it wants but we, as fans, are taking the life back that we gave the franchise.
Nothing will change at Disney until investors purge Bob Budweiser Iger and Kathleen "burn your franchise to the ground" Kennedy and their entire staff is thrown out the door.
We’ll continue to reject Disney with our wallets. No buying merch, no subscribing to D plus, no visiting parks, no watching their movies.
Congrats on 100K Subscribers! Love the show and content. Disney has now failed Marvel, Snow White, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones, losing over $1 billion. Disney used to be about good storytelling, but political shaping (propaganda) is now their objective. It's sad because fans have waited over 20-40 years for these stories to be disappointed.
And when you mix narcissism with ideology and activism you get the deadliest combination for any creative work, storytelling, entertainment and business 👌🏻☠️
I think you've got their motivation accurately diagnosed Jay. Also, I still love it when you walk into your set at the beginning of your videos with the mood lighting. Beautiful!
I was just saying this the other day. The biggest thing that stands out to me is how the people involved in these projects believe they deserve praise simply for doing anything at all. They don't believe themselves responsible for competency, just unconditional praise and admiration.
It seems like the narcissists in charge there are just surrounding themselves with other narcissists and sycophants. I do genuinely think they are narcissists. The interview where George Lucas was describing how there are actually evil people who "think" they're doing good and Kathleen Kennedy tried to make excuses for those types of behaviora was a pretty clear demonstration of that. She wants to remain undetected as a narcissist, which is another common trait.
Also, Leslye Headland's former associations are suspect...
