The new, “get off my lawn”!

[Tinkerpeach]

My point is it’s making runs of money, you should be happy, but you are crying about woke. You are scared of losing your privilege.

Because their stock price is dropping.

 

[Tinkerpeach]

Does that include the promotion budget, which is almost certainly north of $100 million?

Nope, it doesn't.

 

[Jarod]

Nope, it doesn't.

Still tuns of money.

Why does variation upset you so much?

Why remake something if you are going to keep it exactly the same?

Who gives a shit, they aren’t forcing you to watch it are they?

Softly softly catchee monkey

I know this will baffle you so here's an explanation for buffoons like you.

Three OP's going on this right now. Ever use the search bar?

Jarhead has always done that, it gives you an insight into his arrogant persona which is totally lacking in self-awareness.

There is a reason he is restricted to an office and not let loose into the public.

It's not that Ariel is black it's that she was established as a white character and they changed her simply for political reasons.

She was always white, if they wanted her black they should have made her black to begin with.

Now Disney is making the live version of Snow White an Hispanic girl and she's never been Hispanic and they also removed the dwarves and made them into adults for political reasons.

If you create a history with a character you should keep that history, the message they are sending is that they no longer like white characters.

You should have typed in your humble opinion, they changed her for political reasons. They actually did it in an attempt to expand their base and make more money.

Wow. You have put a LOT of thought into this looming threat to our way of life.

 

[BartenderElite]

Of course, we can't know for sure, but the question to ask is Would they have made more without a black mermaid in the movie?

I'll tell ya - this is what keeps me up at night....

 

[BartenderElite]

I don't recall any uproar or boycotts when a white woman played Cleopatra.

 

[Tinkerpeach]

Yes, those of us on the right can actually think.

And how is that working out for them?

lol

And, it apparently backfired badly on them.

No that's your prostate playing up, you really ought to get that fixed.

 

[serendipity]

She wasn't black that's why!! You ought to lay off drinking so much. From Wiki.

Cleopatra VII, the last active Hellenistic ruler of the Macedonian-led Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, has caused debate in some circles. There is a general consensus among scholars that she was predominantly of Macedonian Greek ancestry and minorly of Iranian descent (Sogdian and Persian).

The modern version of the old person screaming at kids on the sidewalk is the kook watching whack job media screaming about how diversity, wokeness and transgender people are making his life miserable!

Disney changed my favorite kids movie by having dark skinned mermaids!

Remind me...what color are mermaids supposed to be

Humans come in many colors, why not mermaids?

 

[Poor Richard Saunders]

They should have changed her name to Laqueesha while they were at it.

It would be more appropriate.

Really? You are going to prove you are doing a racist rant?

 

[Jarod]

They want em pure white, otherwise they get scared.

 

[QP!]

Do you know why we are shareholders?

To make money.

Doesn't matter what your race is.

Disney is losing money and so are we.

The point you are missing is that YOU and people like YOU do not get to speak for ALL shareholders or Disney.

You have lived such a life of entitlement that that is your default position. That if you think it and want it, then you think everyone else does too.

Trust me when i say you are no where near smart enough to be Disney CEO, or a Board Member of their Janitor so what you think they should do for long term value in their stock, is irrelevant.

 

[QP!]

And, it apparently backfired badly on them.

Did it?

How do you judge a long term plan?

For instance if it is clear XYZ segment in a society is GROWING (lets use Asians) but they are not the majority yet, is it wrong for a company to start marketing to them before they are majority even if a bigoted part of their current consumers will cry and cry and cry that they want ALL the focus and its 'woke' to pander to anyone but them?

People who are a lot smarter than you MagaDerps understand companies cannot be trapped in the past and succeed. They must always be pivoting and reinventing to meet FUTURE demand as it shifts.
