Go woke go broke? Disney loses $900 million from box office bombs

https://thedirect.com/article/disney...nimated-movies

https://www.marca.com/en/lifestyle/m...d6e8b456c.html

Renegade tracked the losses of Disney’s last eight releases: “Lightyear,” (Pixar); “Thor: Love and Thunder” (Marvel Studios); “Strange World” (Disney Animation); “Black Panther,” “Wakanda Forever,” “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3” (all from Marvel Studios); “The Little Mermaid,” (Walt Disney Studios); and “Elemental” (Pixar).


So 8 films flopped and now the new woke Indiana Jones and the Flash is projected to flop as well. With the decline in Disney plus subscribers and ESPN viewers, is the era of Disney over?

I hope Disney completely and utterly fails. Absolutely pathetic the amount of pandering and virtue signaling they've done over the past decade. The trash they put in front of children today is pathetic.

EPSN was fine until they starting talking about politics. There's such a simple solution to all of this, keep politics out of entertainment and stop trying to push the f@gg0t agenda crap down people's throats. (Super Ded fkn Srs)

There will not be a more relevant post in this threats than this one.

I appreciate how the misc turned to accepting cancel culture though.

Did a whole 360 with that one.

Honestly I have no idea. Maybe someone who actually watched the movie can chime in.

Their marketing is trash now, maybe cause I'm not a kid and don't watch kid networks anymore but I remember OG Disney stuff getting tons of marketing it felt like seeing the movie was your duty, now it's like random weird animation movie with gay or race swapped character and repeat.


and being woke means they hired a bunch of activists who can't come up with anything good or original so they sacrifice quality for "the message" so they only succeed with reboots until they run them into the ground.

Not watching media by people who hate you/America or products participating in the wrong side of the culture war =/= cancel culture where individuals lives are being destroyed because they said something that wasn't PC.

All those chemicals from flying helis in the military did you in. The title is go woke go broke, not accept woke. People are rightfully voting with their wallets and eyeballs, and that is not acceptance.

They don't care about box office, all they care about is keeping BLACKROCK happy so that investor money keeps pouring in.

The consumer doesn't matter anymore, because sales don't matter anymore, it's all about getting that CABAL dollar.

If this wasn't true, the woke trend would have ended years ago after ghostbusters 2017 and 1 or 2 more big woke flops. The fact it hasn't shows you they DON'T CARE about sales.

Their stock has recently gotten in trouble, having been downgraded as higher risk.

So much for ESG being a low risk indicator LMAO.

Cancel culture is trying to get someone fired or advertising pulled.

Refusing to give support isn't cancel culture.

Some of those movies grossed nearly a billion dollars, not sure if that qualifies as a "flop"

I don't know the economics on them all. But a lot of the big movies can legitimately make $500m globally and lose money for the studio.

People still don't get how effed we are.

We literally as "the people* don't even have the ability to vote with our wallets anymore.

They took all the money already, it's all been siphoned.

What we all have combined is pittance, it's meaningless.

The CABAL has ALL the power now, we let them take it, it's gone, it is NEVER coming back.

This is the last couple of generations of them needing a peasent class, they have figured out they basically have no need for a servent class anymore and would rather have the planet to themselves so they are going to stop us breeding and if we don't die off quick enough for Gates and Co they will kill us off.

We have shown over, and over, and over again that we will do absoloutley nothing.

It's over lol.

It's Ded fkn srs over.

ESG is socialism, and the problem with socialism is that it eventually runs out of other people's money.

The three big Marvel movies you mentioned each grossed over $760M, there's no way that those movies lost money.

Only cancel culture leftists try to accuse others of cancel culture for not supporting something. Democrats: all they can do anymore is project and deflect.

One profited $100m. One profited $200m. One lost around $100m

https://deadline.com/2023/04/thor-lo...ts-1235317525/

https://deadline.com/2023/04/black-p...235320190/amp/

https://boundingintocomics.com/2023/...ox-office/amp/

Worth noting the profit numbers for Thor are suspect. They include something like $120m that Disney+ paid itself for the streaming rights.
