You get what you fricking deserve.

They're trying to play the long-game by gradually normalizing this trash in hopes that younger generations accept it as normal they don't care what old fans think but they went so aggressive with it it ended up backfiring and losing them untold amounts of money so now they'll likely go bankrupt long before their cursed vision can ever see fruition.
>ceases >begin reducing
so which is it? That's like me saying I'm going to totally stop fricking your mom, right now, but we're going to keep fricking three times a week and cut it back gradually.
okay i guess i hate editors then
why would they pick a headline that so blatantly conflicts with the actual article? i thought part of being a good editor is picking accurate headlines not just literal clickbait with no regard
oh it's okay to hate everyone involved with the process. i'm not defending anyone. and the name of the game is clicks, not the content and not the quality so your commentary is right on the mark.
Star Wars >completely fricked up the franchise at the very start since they decided to remake the first movie and erase all the worldbuilding, character development and storylines that Lucas worked for 40 years to create >they also didn't plan out the sequel trilogy so it quickly ran out of steam and everyone lost interest in Star Wars when it ended
Marvel >the appeal of Marvel was that the movies were modern film serials, every movie led to the next one albeit in minor ways until the big Avengers crossover events >after Avengers Endgame the story concluded, the franchise was no longer serialized. It was just a splurge of mediocre content using less popular characters and actors, most of which were dumped on streaming services. There is no story to care about anymore
They basically planted their own demise when they reduced the civil war event - a legitimate way to get rid of some of the old characters, and something which should have been a massive, multimedia event - into a single movie.
>be disney >have many franchises for girls >buy star wars and marvel to have something for boys also >turn it into something for girls instead for some reason >now neither boys nor girls like it' >literally billions down the drain
how do they not get sued for this shit? I'm not even being rhetorical. this level of gross incompetence and harm done to their shareholders has to be worthy of some kind of lawsuit.
They’re getting sued for cooking D+’s books beyond recognition, but this? I have a feeling after this era of wokeshit is over “insulting your current customer base in the hopes of gaining a new one” will be added to the list of things that violate fiduciary duty because to my knowledge has never worked once
The problem is not only that they drove away their core audience, they tought them that they can live without hollywood movies in general. People get their entertainment elsewhere.
Diversity hires and they ran out of existing good material that they could adapt. Marvel movies were successful while they stuck to comic stories that were written in the last century.
Modern Marvel comics are a woke burning garbage dump that can't even remotely compete with the Asian comic book markets anymore. Woke Disney executives for some reason thought it was a good idea to adapt female Thor and She-Hulk and expected to make money with it. It's like they didn't check Marvel Comic's sale figures beforehand.
Stan Lee is gone
Everything went to shit
No Stan Lee and no George Lucas.
>muh stan lee
What the frick was Stan Lee doing in the last 20 years apart from cameos?
the old dude didnt have anything to do with the movies

Clearing up the schedule before the for sale sign goes up.
Pretty sure they are only stopping due to the strikes.
this was somehow announced when he came back months ago
Nooo we wont get a new Rey movie!?!?!?!
Nooo we wont get mode D tier capeshit????!?
Good thing we still have Brown Snow and 7 redditors coming bros!
>headline says "ceases"
>first line of article says "reduces"
why do journalists make themselves so easy to hate
Because the headline is all anyone cares about. Simple as.
editors (or even publishers) write the headlines, not the reporter
okay i guess i hate editors then

In case any journalists were wondering why they are going to be lined up against the wall someday this shit is why
Years from now Onions Wars will be sold to some organization/studio who loved the original and then all the Disney shit will be made non-canon.
>no more Star Wars ever
Thank frick for that.
>be disney
>have many franchises for girls
>buy star wars and marvel to have something for boys also

That's what you get for ruining everything I like. Go broke
Women, gays, Trannies and Blacks.

ESG nonsense has killed both franchises
at least Iger has enough sense to stop the shit show. too bad it took total franchise ruin before he realized it
No more star wars and capeshit?
>what went wrong?
Iger was the one who demanded a new Star Wars film be released every year. This is partly on him.
