Not sure Marvel will make enough profit for Disney cinema to break even in 2022 given the disasters such as with movies Lightyear and Strange World.

Remember that 5 trillion dollar "covid relief" bill in 2020?

There's 330 million Americans. The max any one American could receive was $1,200. $1,200 * 330 million = $396,000 million or 396 billion or 0.396 trillion or a little less than $0.5 trillion.

5 trillion - 0.5 trillion = 4.5 trillion that didn't go to people...

Where do you think that money went, and why do these companies keep doing dumb shit that pushes woke propaganda which ALSO drives away people that would normally purchase their PRODUCTS?

Pretty certain the pedophile groomers at Dizney will be just fine..

Strange World is looking like a $100M loss, and that's going by the bullshit accounting. Probably more.

It's also not just that the movies do "Okay", some of them have to do incredible once the gimmick accounting is gone. Merchandising, as Yogurt the Schwartz Master said, is King. Disney projected at least a billion they didn't make on Merch for the last Star Wars movie.

Isn't it kind of pathetic that little kids are still doing Star Wars? Star Wars came out when I was 6 years old in 1977.

It's kind of like if I was playing with Commando Cody toys at that age, but that was only 1952. That was only 25 years old when I was 6. Star Wars is now 45 years old. It's more like Buck Rogers, which first appeared in 1929, the ORIGINAL Buck Rogers. The radio serials came out in 1932.

Star Wars is SO OOOOOOOLD. It's as old as Buck Rogers was to me as a kid, really. The television series came out in 1950. The television series was only 27 years old when Star Wars came out. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, the television show, came out in 1979 - it was 50 YEARS old by then.

Name something Hollywood has released that isn't old.

Absolutely. Copyright should be limited to 20 years only, just like patents.

What we have now is spectacular proof that DC is corrupt, since Mickey Mouse got copyright protection extended every time it was about to expire.

Disney pulls "Simpsons" episode that mentions Chinese forced labor camps

Disney, ever eager to avoid any confrontation with the Chinese Communist government, cut an episode of The Simpsons from Disney Plus streaming platform in Hong Kong that referenced "forced labor camps" in China.

The episode, titled "One Angry Lisa," aired in October 2022 and showed the instructor of Marge Simpson's virtual bike class state, "Behold the wonders of China. Bitcoin mines, forced labor camps where children make smartphones." Another episode of the show that broadcast in 2005 mentioned the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and the Chinese government's efforts to suppress knowledge of it; it was cut in 2021.

Yes, the old Uighur concentration camps conspiracy theory.

Except it's not a conspiracy theory.
Here, I found a left-wing article to explain:

These camps are much more like prisons than so-called boarding schools. A 2018 report by Agence France-Presse described camps in which thousands of guards carry spiked clubs, tear gas, and stun guns to surveil detainees, who are held in buildings surrounded by razor wire and infrared cameras. AFP journalists also reviewed public documents showing that government agencies overseeing the camps purchased 2,768 police batons, 550 electric cattle prods, 1,367 pairs of handcuffs, and 2,792 cans of pepper spray.

So let's face it: Disney is out here working their magic in China to make sure nobody is exposed to the truth — even when it comes in the form of a Simpsons joke.

Anything that goes against the Chinese Communist Party is just not what Disney is about. They're about money, and when you call out the CCP you don't make money in the Chinese market.

Laying off 7000 people means to me that they have too many people hanging around in offices somewhere.
I have been asked by 3 females to take them (separately of course) to Disneyworld; I refused.
The latest request was from Riviera Beach, FL and we would go along with her family; this would be a nightmare in so many ways I can't even begin to contemplate it.

Nelson Peltz got his way

The big time turnaround King and Trump donor is demanded a seat on the board of Disney, says Iger is the reason Disney is where it is now. Over the past couple of months, he put immense pressure on the board and wrested concessions from Iger in return for withdrawing his campaign for a Board Seat.

Last time at Dinny Lan was 30 years ago. I was really tired and didn't enjoy it. They gave me the survey as I left the park. I was yelling and screaming as I read the questions.

Every single question hinted at if we raise our prices will you still come to the park and pay.

I was yelling they need to change that sign to "The Greediest. Place on Earth"

Never been back nor will I go. I'll get a season pass to Knotts Berry Farm before those Dinnny Assholes! Hope they go BROKE!

Disney getting rid of deadweight like the blue hairs working non-value added jobs is a step in the right direction.

Seems like Amazon, Google, and Facebook already are doing the same.

Higher interest rates means no more easy money, and going on hiring binges to hire more managers to manage the managers.

Like a gas, management expands until it fills all available space.

corporations fire across all departments equally, not just dei shit. economy is bad, they usually cut to lean out. theyll have to hire later, work still there.

i still see plenty of blue haired weirdos employed just fine

Sick MFers

I remember back in the early 1990s hearing about how some of the rank in file at Disney, such as the creative types like animators, were gay.

They had gay pride day at Disney World from what I recall back in the late 1990s where a large amount of visitors wore gay pride shirts.

It was a determined progression on their part, and now they control the content at Disney.

This resulted in Disney produced stale Woke shit and once in a while they may produce something that is noteworthy and very profitable like Frozen.

But in their collective mind, this is perfectly acceptable as its all about ESG or Woke objectives, whereas profitability is not a priority.

It's not a problem that Disney is doing this, the problem is that I suspect government money is being given to Disney to do this.

If they are being paid by some sort of NGO or other government corruption, and I strongly suspect they are - the COVID bailout was one method, that's corruption.

But then again, every big corp has government money thrown at it.

If you wonder who the glowies are on Patnet, the above quote/post has glowie written all over it. An obvious attempt to cause distrust and hatred of the government. Disney is the problem bub, and just because Disney has enough money to influence the government doesn’t mean they get a free pass. Disney does what they want to do, government doesn’t fund Disney, rather Disney helps fund the government.<

You are constantly accusing me of this.

Look, I don't like the government. What's to like about it? I have put this question to you before, and you come back with shit like "well, they build roads". Look at what they are doing in East Palestine? At Katrina, they turned away trucks bringing water from Walmart - I know Walmart did it for free PR, so what? They just forced us all into a lockdown over bullshit, and then tried to coerce us into becoming a medical experiment.

Fuck them. I'm quite open about my dislike for this criminal government. It's not even legitimate anymore - was Biden elected? No.

And you're like "oh slow down, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater!" - the "baby" is a 65 year old man with a diaper fetish, pretending to be a baby. It's practically a rotting, stinking corpse. You're bitching that I complain about the government? Sure the fuck do!



When they arrest that asshole, and convict him, I'll change my mind. If they arrest ANYBODY and convict them, I'll change my mind. Clinton, Pelosi, George W. Bush, Fauci, anybody, I'll change my mind. The government is in the business of protecting criminals, not prosecuting them. There is no law.

You can be a pathetic bootlicker if you like. I use my REAL NAME here. Wouldn't make a difference if I didn't. Anybody working at the intelligence agencies can trivially find out who I am or your are - they can do stuff Patrick himself can't do, even though he runs this site. Here's my IP address:

You know why I gave that to you? That SPECIFICALLY identifies who I am. This is the best you can do with it:

https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/75.31.75.102

I'm not a coward. If there were less cowards, we'd have a much better government. People have 3 possibilities

1) have no clue what is going on, and just how criminal government is (people ACTIVELY work to be ignorant)
2) have a clue what is going on and go along to get along, be complicit in the crimes these are cowards or they are criminals or something in between.
3) have a clue what is going on and at least complain about it, see if you can do something about it.

I actively work to eliminate option #1 for people. You're going to go with #2. It's your immortal soul, dude. Do what you want.

Booger says

This stuff is just mean.

I don't know why people care about Halle Bailey being cast in the Little Mermaid. I know the first film had a white character, and I know the original tale was by Hans Christian Andersen and he was Danish but the Disney adaptations have NEVER been faithful to the original works anyhow, so who cares?

Halle Bailey is a well regarded singer. Who you rather have Miley Cyruss in the part? She's a slut now.

Ever read the AA Milne Winnie the Pooh books, they bear LITTLE resemblance to the Dizney stuff. Same thing with Pinnochio.

This Dizney stuff doesn't matter. All their live action remakes of "classics" suck, and are promptly forgotten. Part of the reason they keep changing characters and add in all this woke BS, is so as attitudes change, they have something new to sell - just "update it". Our culture is forcibly changed to sell new books, new films, new crap, periodically.

Don't think somebody can sincerely hate the intelligence agencies and criminal government that has dragged us into the precipice of World War III?

I happily spend time debunking government propaganda, it's my favorite hobby. I waste plenty of time informing people of past government crimes, why do you think I do that? I do it to prove the government is criminal.

Here - did you know that the FIB was warned PRIOR to the bombing of the WTC in 1993 that it was about to be bombed?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M8QtYTplyk

The DOJ tried to prosecute him, but he didn't trust the FIB (smart man) and recorded all his conversations with the FIB.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emad_Salem

Salem released that recording in part, to prove his innocence, and to prove FIB involvement.

Now, given the FIB allowed the WTC bombing, and the discrepancies about 9/11, who do you think did 9/11? Some guys from the Middle East being directed by a guy in a cave in Afghanistan? Who PAID the terrorists - they needed money to live, where did the money come from? 90% of them were Saudi, our "good friends". They are our government's friends, they did terrorism for the United States government to justify 20 years of endless stupid wars.

If Americans only knew, but most people are cattle. It doesn't matter how much proof or evidence there is presented, they either can't believe it, or simply won't.
