They killed the brand. A few years ago 77% had a favorable opinion about Disney now its in the 30's. They're in big trouble. An animated movie during holidays used to be an easy billion dollars and Wish stalled out at 145 million global.

It won't matter as long as they keep churning out animated movies that kids grow up watching. They need to step up their game though these movies suck shit. They need to go back to proper gender roles and stereotypes. Give the parents something they want their kids to watch over and over and over and yes daddy over and over.

Hate would be a strong word, but that South Park episode opened my eyes. We went on a Disney cruise, and that episode made a ton of sense.


I've talked before about how it seems at times as if we've been in a continuation of the '90s ever since, and I think in a lot of ways we have. But one thing that really differentiates the Gen-X-led '90s from the Millennial/Zoomer-led present is the attitude toward the Walt Disney Company. It used to be that it was cool to hate Disney, just absolutely hate the family-friendliness, the overexpansion, but most of all how litigious they were toward everyone who might even try to poke gentle fun at them. Michael Eisner was like the devil. But today, no one loathes them. They own the intellectual property we all love so much. They let gay people act at theme parks and write musicals. What's not to love?

That movie is in deep shit. They got it in their heads that casting midgets to play the dwarves was racist so they decided on 1 midget and 6 people of various gender and ethnicity and sexual orientation including a trans. When some pickup shots became public and they were mocked they decided to scrap the midget and the 6 weirdos and add CGI dwarves. They had almost completed filming so now they have to go back and either re-shoot everything or use CGI to erase the wierdos and add the new dwarves. Dumb shit like this is why they can't make a movie for under 300 million dollars.

Plus the wise Latinx lady they cast as the lead promoted the film by saying how much she hated the original.

Is that why the song, “Save your crotch, ride a tranny” has been trending?

Was there a cool to hate period for Disney? I've really never given this a ton of thought. Disney and all that is great for kids. I watched and enjoyed Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, etc... as a yount adult. Most of those I saw as a result from dates....fine. But that's about it for me.

When the day comes I finally get grandkids, I will absolutely take them to Disney. I won't love doing it for me, but I get the whole magical experience for kids.

The whole adult Disney junkie thing is what weirds me out and makes me kind of hate Disney. It's just creepy. All the places in the world to travel, see, and experience and there's people that would rather go obsess over a cartoon mouse. That makes it cultish in a way.

We took our kids because we felt we had to. They didn't especially care for it, nor did we. I know two sets of families who absolutely worship disney. It is beyond creepy.

Mid to late '90s under Eisner was when the company really started taking on evil-empire tendencies and getting that reputation for sterility and corporate coldness. They had the sue-everyone-into-oblivion reputation before Scientology did. It was a common Simpsons joke in the '90s, which, well, I needn't say more.

I remember whatever little alternative/sub-mainstream media I was digesting at the time (think cranks on Usenet, mostly) being very hostile toward Eisner and "The Mouse." Even as a kid, I remember rifling through my grandpa's trade publications, reading that Disney was buying ABC and ESPN from CapCities, and thinking this was weird and probably not good without really knowing how to articulate it or why it was bad. It just seemed like too much. If only we knew how much worse it would get.

Looks like anyone who paid $29.99 for this one could have waited and gotten it on a paid streaming service for free.
