    Some people don't understand why we celebrate Disney's demise; the answer, it's the same reason we celebrate when a child predator is convicted. We love our children.

    • @wbass243
      @wbass243 Před 10 měsíci +55

      while there is that i think the reason is more core. The reason we celebrate Disney's downfall is because it tried to shove an agenda down our throats. They think, the old metric of the youth: goes to see movies at the expense of the parents, so they have to promote "woke" culture because teens identify with this. They are being taught this more and more in our educational system. But the backlash has been, parents teaching the next generation about what they used to love and introducing old classics like batman the animated searies and its stylized art. Music: did you know many teens can identify classic rock greats because the people producing movies add them to the sound track because it is the music they grew up with.
      This identifys the problem for Disney. Remember when you didnt have opinions about music or movies as a child and you only liked what your friends did ? But as you aged into an adult, suddenly you started liking the music and movies your parents made you watch with them? It is because lessons that start as acorns grow into mighty oaks. Meaning, we don't realize as our brains are developing that the greatness we were introduced to suddenly has meaning when our mature brains realize how monumental the messages in the greats were. We must mature and look back at the wealth of culture our parents taught us. It only becomes prolific and profound when we fully integrate those old lessons.
      My personal opinion is that profound ideas must gestate and grow and become intertwined with life experience till we understand the lessons our parents were trying to teach us. Disney used to understand this and told classic allegories. But the new narrative of Disney is the almighty Dollar. We see it in their market anylists whom follow the current cultural identity and forget those which made our nation the strongest on Earth. We were the envy of all other nations because our culture was predicated on a dream sold in the form of Americana. This is different to everyone, but Disney used to sell the core tennants: A middle class family, with loving parents who made time for their children and embraced that side of youth that kept us feeling optomistic Anything was possible if you believed. Remember Disneys own intro music? "When you wish upon a Star" .."Dreams will come true". Now its girl boss and men cant be toxic. Some bean counter put it into Disneys head that females make 76% of purchasing decisions in the household. But they didn't understand that men/ Dads/ Fathers decide if the children should be exposed to political, synical, controversial, woke, subcultures. They failed to understand while women buy the familys clothing and groceries, buy the tickets for the movies and decide when its time to get a new car. Its the man who makes majority of the money (in traditional values) that protects the family from those fore-mentioned ideas.
      While I wouldn't go so far as to say all these ideas are predatory, They are for sure not educationg the family unit with the right messaging. Men as protectors limit exposure to this kind of garbage by teaching the youth about the greats from long past. You cant just brain wash the youth when the parents create strong roots. It only worked in the past because Disney was "Family Friendly" and parent could trust the messaging" Conservative parents realize creating a "Princess" girl who thinks she deserves her prince was allowed in an era when the middle class was strong and people had a more likely chance of seeing their child find a mate who kind of fit that prince/ princess ideal. This is now long gone with the destruction of the middle class. Now its every man for themselves and its even more important to shield your child from rogue ideas that can lead their children into chaos and distruptive family values. I hope this new hallow shell of a corporation named Disney falls apart. It doesnt resemble anything from my chilhood. My mother would have written her congressman if she saw a "She Hulk Twerking"
      TLDR: Disney used to promote Family values and even if the massaging was off tilt they still promoted a princess should find their prince. America accepted this in an era of plenty, when a strong middle class had expendable cash. But now times are tough It's a families obligation to protect children from Disney's rogue ideas that are predicated on "the current: you can be anything culture". Most aware Parents realize this is a dead end and shield their family from this new way of thinking. This is why Disney can't sell this new agenda. And blaming their fans for not accepting this garbage was the final straw.

    -Seeing Bob Fett, Obi Wan Kenobi and Mandalorian season 3 (Wich also showed the flows of the other two seasons) bashed by fans again
    -Seeing Andor, wich is the only positive thing viewed by fans in Star Wars in years, have lower audiences than all of the other shows
    -Seeing the Star Wars galactic cruiser ride close within a year
    -Seeing the Willow Disney+ series flop and removed from Disney+ itself

      Well as a response to the last reply. My concerns are the Disney seems to want to introduce sexuality particularly transgender and non-binary things such as that two very impressionable kids. If your son came to you and said he thinks he's Vincent van Gogh and he wants to cut his ear off you would get him a psychologist. If he comes to you and says he wants to cut his leg off and his eye out because he wants to be a pirate you would get him a psychologist but if he comes to you and says he wants to cut his private parts off then Disney and the rest of the world think that he's a hero. They're confusing these poor children a very very very impressionable time. I don't want my kid to be exposed to such heavy deeply troubled psychological options.. I also want them to know that men can be heroes and don't have to be deconstructed and wait for a woman to save the day. Just like if I had daughters I would not want them to watch old Disney movies that make every woman look like the helpless Damsel in Distress. For all of my liberal brothers and sisters out there, you are eventually going to reap what you sow either your son or daughter or niece or nephew will come out deeply confused and make horrible decisions they can't undo because of the left-wing media. They make trillions of dollars and keep it all for themselves and have us fighting over things like this.

      Within that 35 there are some also-rans, but also an incredible concentration of greatness - Fantasia, Cinderella, Lady and the Tramp, The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmations, The Jungle Book, Sleeping Beauty, Bambi, Dumbo, Aladdin etc...
      Another great film was the next one in 1995 - the very first feature Disney farmed out to Pixar as a fully computer animated movie - Toy Story.
      Disney released 37 animated features in 58 years before Toy Story, and 100+ in under 30 years since. The balance of quality, impact, and greatness VASTLY favours their first 38 cartoon movies. Toy Story is critically acclaimed as one of the great movies - well written, well voiced, well scored - but it is also the end of an era of incredible quality for Disney that they have never looked like recovering.
      I guess the technology Toy Story ushered in simply made them lazy.

To connect with boys and young men they bought Marvel, Lucasfilm and Fox then have spent the past decade turning all of those properties in to princess films too, putting women and girls in the central roles of everything and seemingly making a point to denigrate all of the former leading men.

They put their ideology above the family, so my family will not be going any time soon. I used to love Disney. I traveled thousand of miles to go to Orlando to experience it on a few occasions.

    A certain games developer once said "If you don't like it, don't play it!" in response to critique about them politicizing a game and then started begging people to play the game when people did just like adviced, basicly the same thing is happening to Disney.
    Just like that developer Disney has ruined too many IP's by changing the lore and/or adding unnecesary political agendas, catering to vocal minorities (that have no interest in the content anyway, ie not contributing to their profits), getting rid if "uncomfortable" actors/characters/directors and should be banned from acquiring good profitable studios and IP's, they'll only ruin them anyway.
    If they want to start the journey to get their reputation back they will have to begin by getting rid of the people who demands that political agendas should be the foremost thing in the movies and shows (ofcourse unless it's a movie about politics) and clear the names of the actors and directors they have ruined because of it. If they do, they might be back on track in 10-15 years, if not, then they'll probably be gone in at most 5 years by my estimate.

    I work in the industry and I can tell you one thing, they piss away millions of dollars like its going out of style.

Now you've got production sitting on sets, flipping through their phones, production houses making stupid decision like using CG to remove mustache. CG artists are hammered into the ground with endless OT because people like (you know who ) directing something that sounds like "store" who then turn around on release and actually have the audacity to make fun of the bad CG when theyre leadership is what caused it. I worked on a certain all CG animated film that they thought would be a flop and basically let go of the reigns and gave the artists control. We finished 30 million under budget and a month early. Our film saved that company because theyre other "big hit" that they spent 200 million on (and could've been easily finished with 100 million) flopped so hard that the studio wouldve gone down in flames.. its a horrible horrible game they play these days. Disney has become morally and creatively bankrupt.

I have had to deal more and more with parents challenging grades I have given their kids and school administration being afraid of them. We have had an entire generation grow up being told their special and never having that idea challenged, or when it has been they were told the challenger was “wrong”, biased, or some type of phobic. Now these same people, now adults, are writing stuff that is getting rejected by the consumer and they can’t handle it. Their special in their mind and all they know is to say their critics are wrong, racist, or a phobic because that’s what they’ve heard their entire life. They never had to confront the limitation of their own talent or just been told to abandon something because they are simply not good enough to succeed.
