The potential for selling merchandise is what projects are based on; the hitpotential of a song (LET IT GO is what FROZEN was constructed around). Derived stuff (anything you can glue a Starwars logo on. The green milk - available in Disney parks - was a surprising failure). Just imagine if Disney put the same amount of effort into the plot of a movie that they put into that coloured flavoured milk ... but nooo, "somehow Palpatine returns" is what they came up with.

I don't watch him often but the last video I saw he showed a graph of demographics and who watches what genre and he said what you're saying. Studios come into a genre that's mostly male skewing and then make movies designed for women. Funny enough they never do the inverse. There's not many rom-coms or musicals geared towards men, for a good reason. Like when they made that gay rom com that flopped. Men don't want to watch it because it's rom com and women don't want to watch it because they can't relate to any of characters when both love interests are male.

"We can't still associate dead characters from five years ago with the modern franchise." Except after five years, the dead characters are still better than what the modern franchise condescends to put on screen.

“A snake can shed its own skin. But it’s still a snake” Iger proves it every time; being the manipulative person his is. Also, the biggest problem with “introducing characters” is that their bad writing causes them to take ages to get people to get to know them. Which, in turn, creates the myth of “needing more time to introduce a character”. Plenty of films in the 2000s only took 5 minutes for the audience to know in the beginning and witness their character arc in the rest of the film. 2 hours and on in a second film to understand them is just terrible writing when no one knows more about who they are in the first few minutes.

Justice needs no modifier or qualifier, and if it comes with one, it's NOT justice, but simply "tilting the playing field" which is NOT justice. Period.

I've heard a story from a pilot, that during his first flight he went for a rougher landing that he should, and when his older and more expirienced co-pilot told him that pasadgers wouldn't like that he replied "it's not a big deal, they can endure it". Later on, when plane safely landed and pasadgers were on their way to the airport, elder pilot came to the younger one, hit him in a face with enough force to put young guy on the ground and said: "remember this, asshole. They're the one who put bread on your table, light in your home, and clothes on your back. They will not endure. Instead, you will tie yourself in a knot, but make them happy". Shitting all over your own audience feels so obviously counterproductive, that I can't come up with any rational explanation for this.

The explanation is that the industry is run by people who are either staunch activists (or pandering to activists, same thing), or narcissists. The former beleive that they are changing the world for the better so anyone who opposes them must be evil. The latter believe that they have their finger on the pulse of the zeitgeist, and anyone who disagrees is just stupid. "We know what you want." The problem is that making money and pleasing their audience is not a priority for either of those groups. They have "a higher purpose," which is a real problem in multi-billion dollar entertainment industry.

the rational explanation is that the industry doesn't run on your money. It runs on financing provided by the banks. This is the result of low interest rates: banks throw money at everything, whether it's successful or not, because they need that volume to compensate for the tiny % of interest their making on the other side. Your loan is their collateral for the debt they actually want (government) so, again, they throw money at you whether your product is profitable or not.

They claim brown people are poor and oppressed when brown people in the USA are among the poorest AND wealthiest. They claim white people with a high school diploma, but no college degree are "uneducated." Then they praise minorities with no college degree. It's divisive and another brand of supremacy that is just as bad as every other kind.

All these issues stem from one original sin: DEI. This has caused them to hire people based on their physical and genital characteristics and not talent or competency. So obviously you’re not going to got get any big, visionary stuff from directors, writers producers, etc who’ve never even been involved in a big budget movie before. They’re too busy figuring out what the heck to do for the movie at hand to even contemplate where it’s going down the road.

F Disney. I’ve canceled my subscriptions and won’t buy any of their stuff anymore. Won’t support someone who hates and condemns me just for the traits with which I was born. This is what happens when you hire based on traits and ideology, rather than ability ... starting with Bob Eiger.

When Kathleen Kennedy steps down the Star Wars franchise is saved without a doubt....

Let the whole franchise die on the vine for 10 years, sack all the staff and start again..

No they did not respond to you or "critical drinker". This was a clickbait and pointless buzzword salad.

disney complains about toxic fans while still hiring the most toxic actors they can find

Another big issue is that none of the new characters are resonating with audiences, and that is evident from watching dozens of videos about how Marvel and Star Wars merchandise is clogging discount stores. Every video it’s tons of Shang-chi, The Eternals, and Black Panther (nothing from Antman 3 or the Marvels because they were never ordered in the first place), which have been rotting for years. Hasbro is in huge financial trouble because lots of these toy lines aren’t selling, and it’s little wonder why. People don’t want the figures, because they aren’t featuring characters we care about

go back to being a "traditional family" company, get rid of those weirdo writers, management & staff !

Disney and other woke have to go bankrupt. Forgiving them would be a great mistake.

After the way Disney has shown how manipulative they've been it's surprising see how many people are excited to see what they will come up with next.

People in the future will look back to these times and say “Damn! The world was really f*cked up back then!”

You always have fake titles Jesse, just stop, this will kill your credibility.

Solution: Give Dennis Villanueve a billion dollars and complete control over the MCU.

Cancel any future Captain Marvel movies Shes a horrible character Literally can jump start a sun but cant beat a D list villain

THANK YOU !! I am not alone wishing we could go back 10 yrs to better times. Its bad when the most popular streaming titles are all from 80s and 90s. When movies had story and entertained instead of "the message" and trying to force agendas down our throats.

I highly doubt it. If I was betting, I would put money on the stupidity will continue.

Lucasfilm should start a division like DC Elseworlds titled Legends where they hire fans to make non canon stories and give full creative freedom and not interfere, and let them make faithful adaptations of Expanded Universe material. Disney can still make their crap, but give the option for customers to buy and watch other Star Wars content not part of their continuity. I think the same should apply with Marvel by allowing a division to hire fans to make Marvel movies and shows not part of the MCU and tell good stories with any Marvel related characters and properties without interference from Kevin and Disney.

What messed me about was Dr Strange 2, imagine watching the first film and being excited about the 2nd only to discover that you had to watch a TV series firstly to understand the next film.

I wouldn't think there could be good stories and characters in superhero movies. It's about men dressed up in tights, wearing capes, with magical powers. It's little boy's stuff.

You articulated this really well.

If it takes just a few people to topple down those "creative" endeavors, then they're all on shaky foundation to begin with. It's simple as that.

There are no people left at Disney able to write and execute quality movies. Moreover, Bob Iger cannot be trusted. Just ask Bob Chapek. Disney has had one flop after another, self-inflicted injuries that have made audiences skeptical of Disney's entertainment products (even the parks) and have cost Disney the ability to generate income and stock value. Disney must change, but Disney does not know how to do this effectively.

I'm at the point now where I just don't care about movies anymore. To much damage has been done.

Too little too late unfortunately. They’ve destroyed so many long cherished IPs and they’ve done so with such inexplicable unmitigated contempt that only the most steadfast of apologists bother to support them. They’ve made every possible mistake imaginable and have just kept repeating them. The only way they can even begin to heal is by doing a complete overhaul on their leadership structure and place safety precautions in place to keep the cancer away. As a start

The world is modernizing, we've gotten to the point where the company can't ignore it's customer, Disney is now in a bad place because of their inability to ignore their customers.

When it comes to trust I think they crap the bed. Trust is earned & they completely blew it. I'll never be a fan again. Only chance they have is getting rid of everyone responsible.

I remember seeing Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when I was a kid and there was an intermission. I forget how long it lasted but the restroom had a long line of both kids and adults. And in those days, kids as young as 5 would regularly go to the restrooms by themselves. Kids and many older adults, have difficulty sitting through a 2.5 hour movie. They should bring back the intermission for movies over 2 hours long. A lot of families wait for a movie to come out on Netflix or Amazon prime or other services to watch a movie at home because not everybody can sit through a movie over 2 hours long. Of coarse an intermission will cut into screenings but it will more than make up for it in increased concession sales and maybe more families and older adults will be willing to sit through a long movie. Its not attention span that limits how long many people can sit through a movie, its nature.

Saw this coming right before end game. still shocked they didn't.

Personally I still wouldn’t trust them! It shouldn’t have taken them this much for them to get a clue. If they tried this garbage once, they will do again when they think we have our guard down.

If Disney cared, they’d either severely curb Kevin Feige’s power or just outright fire him. All he does is bring in people who have never opened a comic book in their lives to execute his vision, micromanage everyone and everything, piss off the actors, and alienate longtime fans. He’s lived long enough to become the villain.

Remember, Disney thinks the character is what drove the popularity of Phase 1. So they started making a bunch of DEI characters in the comics and in the movies with no storyline.

It will get worse. They don’t even understand the problem.
