Yes, keep disparaging us because we won't go see your shitty movies. Keep losing money and entrenching the disgust the general public is building for the preaching slop being farted out as "entertainment".

There are not enough "Please clap" sycophants to keep that business model afloat.

Bigoted audience?

What audience

 

[Saruhashi]

How do you describe people who don't go to see your movies as "audience members"?

If they aren't watching your stuff then they aren't your audience.

The level of entitlement is ridiculous.

 

[cryptoadam]

So what about the non bigoted audience members ? I thought diversity and representation were so important you would think their would be massive amounts of people dying to go see these movies. I guess the MAGA Qanons stood in front of the theaters blocking the way of all the gay troon BIPOC wamanz from watching disney movies.

 

[Saruhashi]

You can kind of see how this shit happens.

People within the industry have gambled basically everything on FOMO. Maybe because anyone really under the age of maybe 30 grew up in a time when some of these movies and TV shows etc felt like genuinely unmissable events.

They've just assumed that the audiences fear of missing out pretty much guaranteed audience numbers and I guess it crossed someone's mind that if we've got all these straight white male nerds in front of the screen we might as well hit them with a dose of feminism while they are a captive audience.

Unfortunately people left each movie feeling less and less satisfied until they just decided not to go.

I think there's a lot revealed in George RR Martin moaning that "Star Wars fans hate Star Wars now". A lot of these people genuinely thought that they could just do any old shit and because the audience are "fans" that they would blindly support it.

Now that it's becoming obvious that this is not true they are reacting in the only way they know how to a fanbase that they honestly haven't respected in almost a full decade. Accusations, abuse, shaming tactics. Like the chick who let a guy plow her senseless every night for a month screeching that he's shit in bed because he decided he didn't see a future with her. They are now literally showing you why you should never ever give them your time or money again.

These fuckers actually thought they could scream in a potential customer's face "this product isn't for you and you are awful" and that customer would still dip into their wallet because they simply couldn't conquer that fear of missing out.

Now that the customer is saying "well if it's going to be like that, I think I'll just get my entertainment elsewhere" they are genuinely gobsmacked. However, they decided to cope with that by blocking user reviews and hiding dislikes and comments on social platforms.

None of that worked so now the next tactic is "can we somehow shame the customer into paying for the product?"

Literally anything except just make a product that the customer actually wants.

The grandchildren of Walt Disney and Roy O. Disney are voicing their support for Bob Iger in his board seat battle against Nelson Peltz.

Two separate letters were sent to shareholders Thursday from each set of grandchildren, including Abigail Disney, who has been outspoken against recent Disney practices.

In the letter from grandchildren of Roy O. Disney, which is signed by Abigail and three others, the grandchildren outline the "magic" they experienced at the company throughout their childhoods, and say that Iger can continue that spirit at the company. Meanwhile, they call Peltz one of the "wolves in sheep's clothing" and also one of the "villains" in a Disney story.

There also trying to rely on an audience that has aged 10 20 30 or 40 years ago. Star Wars is 40 years old. People dont have the same taste and fandom at 40 or 50.or 60 that they had as 10 pr 20 year olds.

Studios.just rely on nostalgia and basically an ever growing older fanbase. They arent creating new fans because their shit sucks. So its just keep relying on the old fans. Hollywood has no ideas and no one has passion to create projects out of love. Its just diversity check boxes and franchise bait.

Aren't the Grandkids bas

Basically the Grandkids till yesterday kept saying their Uncle Walt was a fascist racist, and spoke alot of shit about traditional Disney.

Now all of a sudden they cherish their Uncle/ Grandpa and want Iger to maintain the status quo

Yea whenever a grandkid pipes up it's usually to say stupid shit and dump on Walt and current Disney paying employees too little.

Meanwhile also living in the life of luxury based on the empire their grandfather and great uncle built.

Why anyone would put weight in what they say is beyond me.

Liam Neeson is a pretty shit actor IMO. I suspect he'll be exceptionally shitty trying to fill Leslie Nielson's shoes.

No way. His dry comedy chops are amazing.

George RR Martin can suck my dick. He's got no cause to complain about fans turning against creators when he's spent more than a decade dicking his readership with the promised release of his last two books in A Song of Ice and Fire. I guess he's still sore about how badly received the ending to Game of Thrones was. Fuck that fat guy.

I thought the first one had potential to set up something interesting, and Andrew Garfield was well cast, but yeah, second one pissed it all away.

Still, it all payed off with a pretty good complete character and story arc in No Way Home, so I'll give it a rewatch on the big screen.

Personally I thought Garfield was the best Spider-Man. His portrayal was the closest to the original Peter Parker created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. People seem to forget that in the character's long history, Peter wasn't always the nice guy loser he's portrayed as today. In the original comics he was an angry moody teen who was prone to lose his temper and cause more problems rather than solve them.

Why are people saying wokeness is dead? How retarded you gotta be to say that.

Why are people saying wokeness is dead? How retarded you gotta be to say that.

Think of it as a counterpoint to the way leftists used to declare that 'gamers' are dead, or whiteness is the ver, that kind of thing.

Basically it's a melodramatic way of saying the wheel of history is rolling away from the elite's new religion being in its ascendancy, and is turning back towards a more normal path now the majority have made it clear they're not buying this shit and are no longer being cowed by the threats of cancel culture.

That doesn't mean sanity has won, just that the normies have finally twigged what's happening and are becoming ungovernable, with whatever goes against the 'woke' agenda, like Sydney Sweeny being undeniably the most fuckable Hollywood starlet currently on the scene, is being applauded.

I think it's selective. Sure there is some semblance of normalcy returning but it's minuscule.

The main channels through which wokeism is being projected is still alive and well. TV/Movies and gaming.

Can Hollywood really afford another 2023? You'd think the multiple bombs would have taught them that this woke shite ain't worth it. The only thing with any wokeness that seemed to make any profit was Barbie.

But most of those main channels are dying. Look at how badly cable, streaming, Hollywood and AAA is doing and how risky and unsustainable their current models are now. They gambled on being able to socially engineer the public and still make money, and they lost.

Like I said, it's not a victory, it's just a turning of the tide. There's still a long, long way to go, but look at social media, traditional media, product sales, politics and opinion polls. Everywhere there is a noticeable rightward shift in trends that would have been unimaginable and would have been already destroyed by cancel culture just a couple of years ago.

If history has taught us anything these things often get repackaged with a better looking, prettier bow but it's the same shit inside the box

What's even more embarrassing for Hollywood is the fact that the so-called Fandom Menace channels; namely people like Nerdrotic, The Critical Drinker, Midnight's Edge and the rest are getting more views than any of the stuff they put up on streaming. I mean, a bunch of dudes streaming online talking about how your million dollar tv shows and films all suck has got to be a big blow to their ego.

I mean, if it yields something worth watching then maybe that in itself is a victory for the normie audience who despise woke shite? I mean shit, one of my favorite shows in recent years has been Arcane: League of Legends.

It's filled with all the diverse and inclusive stuff that we're supposed to despise, yet it still managed to be a fucking great series with compelling characters and a fantastic story. That's because the showrunners didn't forget the cardinal rule of entertaining your audience and NOT lecturing them. The writers of this show haven't forgotten how to use subtlety and restraint to get their point across. The problem with most woke writers today is that they don't know SHIT about writing with subtext and hidden meaning. Everything about their agenda has to be LOUD and OBNOXIOUS as possible, which turns off most people.

Maybe this time Hollywood will finally employ people who know their craft rather being a diversity hire to fill a quota.

But it will also continue to fail.

Fundamentally they're at war with reality/nature/god, and no amount of wishing will win that battle.

Don't get me wrong, they can, will and have done enormous amounts of harm before they properly lose, but there is no future where they end up with their post history, post human, will is all that matters eternal utopia.

The Angloliberism, Protestant work ethic and Christian morality built world that allowed these far left woke elites to exist in the first place is long gone, and the progressive, technocratic vision their managerial class want to bring about is all just repeating historical trends for what always happens at the the end of a great civilisation.

This is just another step on the downward path towards collapse, and just like every time before hand, they're the kind of people that think they're going to end up on top of a mountain instead, and are completely unprepared for the hardships to come.

[Stilton Disco]

Because of boobs

Boobs really are the greatest sign of a civilised, cultured populace, of a people that not only understand their nature, but that have a sophisticated and evolved mind to see beyond the primal and appreciate true perfection.

Is it any wonder that the previous years of woke propaganda and cultural decay saw arses being held up as better and more desirable? They're the object of the baser urges of the primitive savage, more ape than man and blind to the consequences of their actions.
