BitAzure (@bit_reactor) reported@juunibug I see it as sort of an indicator of the transition from fun melodrama with Disney and stuff in early KH to a story trying to take itself (too) seriously now to the point where there's a sort of tonal whiplash some people get because there's one group here for fun and vibes and Disney, while another group is there for "the lore" and those two groups don't always coincide with what the game is doing. I think also the ease of which they trivialize combat was the big thing at launch in which they were the easy obvious answer to any problem. Personally I think if the game is still gonna try to market to kids that an "easy button" is totally fine, it just may need to be more of a pity system than a default if that makes any sense? Anyways all that rambling to say they were a cool idea just emblematic of other disjointed things in KH3. On their own they're cool. Sorry for yappin lol

Jettsins (@Jettsins) reportedImagine a Joe Fix It disney series. Ill actually resub to disney+

Luke Taylor (@DefoNotLT) reported@Ace109610 ain’t it cause oscar isaac doesn’t wanna work with disney atm

TXT Sayeth Unto Thee... (@YouCantKillTXT) reportedMagsheto sounds on-brand for Disney, but I’d want to see something official. I hope it’s just a stupid rumor, because it’s an awful choice.

Bill Griggs (@i98737) reported@ConanOBrien Johnny Depp once said he wouldn't work for Disney, over cutting ties with him over domestic abuse allegations with Amber Heard . Things have changed. Both sides are putting their differences behind and ready to make money .Money makes hurt feelings go away .

StreamHub 📺📱💻 (@Topback9) reported@annezelnorval @DisneyPlus I will suggest you make use of your UK account in SA because the UK content available is more than the SA Disney+. However, if you want to cancel, login into your account using VPN to cancel the subscription.

Irose (@irose_R2) reported@StarWarsOnly2 Because thats what most live action Disney + shows look like (with the exception of Andor). The production and visual quality of 99% of their shows are garbage.

biggkahunaburger (@MillyRockyyy) reported@mktoon Hell nah. If there was a chance to work with Disney or Spielberg, Spielberg is being picked 9 out of 10 times
-
Ape Hands Holder 🇧🇾 (@sheevposter) reported@cruelsardaukar George Lucas studied the Golden Bough, the monomyth, wanted to create a work that would be the American reply to Tolkien/Wagner/Virgil/Homer. Succeeded with the OT, had a fit of Homeric Narcolepsy with the Prequels. Under the Disney regime it's obvious Star Wars is a corporate

Maddy, MPH | ✈️🐦🔥 (@MaddyPuffin) reportedLook at kids' TV directors Rich & Beth Correll: both wrote letters defending convicted child predator Brian Peck (Beth wrote 2). "It would be my pleasure to work with him again" "This man is not a predator" What did they say about the victim, Drake Bell? That "nothing seemed to change" in his behavior (implying nothing bad happened) and credited Peck for his talent. After Peck’s conviction, they continued working with Peck on Disney (The Suite Life of Zack & Cody) and with Drake on Drake & Josh. Drake had no idea they supported his abuser until 2024. Absolute betrayal.
-
Tom Odey (@odey_me) reported@LinkerFX Fox still owned the X-Men film rights during the Infinity Saga, so Magneto simply wasn’t available to the MCU. Even after the Disney acquisition, the creative team had already locked in a decade-long plan that didn’t include mutants until much later. Dropping him in as a late-game solve would’ve broken the carefully built escalation and robbed the story of its emotional weight.

Charles Tolman (@TheGr8Historian) reportedThe problem with the Disney pundit community is that they are all adults who don't seem to go to parks with kids, you know, the way Walt seemed to want it to be. They all act like nobody uses some features like Play Disney or want certain types or rides because all the other adults they stand in line with don't. This is the real problem Disney has. There is more money, in the short term, with the adults but at the expense of the future generations who don't think its that special of a place since there are other theme parks now who do nearly the same thing.

RichardBlue (@RichardBlue1963) reported@Vortasis Nobody cares about aura. People care about lore. The lack of lore and broken lore is why the Acolyte, Skele-crew, and the Mando movie bombed. And why all Disney+ shows have mediocre viewership.
-
SynthianDrakon (@Synthiandrakon) reported@derpo377 It feels crazy to be having discussions about disney causing the downfall of starwars. George Lucas made 3 of the worst movies of all time in the prequels, and then he sold the already dead star wars to disney so they could parade its corpse around
-
An Angry Albino (@An_Angry_Albino) reported@Maurice_eo @CryptumZetaXV The 343 games have a feel of experimenting with halo gameplay, but the stories have always been terrible and out of touch with what we got in the Bungie era to the degree they are like a prototype for what Disney did to star wars.

🇺🇸 (@DebtSlaveUSA) reported@TmAlberto I wish a hispanic guy would come into the office to save white people from white collar work by taking them to disney world 😭
-
Stefon Diggs’ Crop Top (@justsumyunghoe) reported@GraceRandolph Shut up! Stop trying act like you know everything and you can see the future. Go get your hair done. These ppl gotta pay the bills too. Them 2 other movies can taint her career and she can be struggling for work. At least with Disney marvel and has a consistent job & check.

Trefology (@trefology) reported@ScottMcCreaWest Somehow this film completely escaped me. And Disney + is no help. So, actually, thank you!
-
KyloKen (@KyloKen_) reported@Kyle_Carter89 @DanielRPK Marvel are just co-producers of Spiderman films. Sony are the distributors. Sony owns all rights to the films and any Spiderman adjacent characters. Marvel/Disney are just compensated for their work in the production. Disney can't use Spiderman without Sony's permission.

shadowmoon (@im_shadowmoon) reported@anabelle_dawn I am so glad it got deservedly cancelled and people like you are crying. This trick of “consume this **** now, be brainwashed and we promised something cool next season” does not work anymore. I hope all Disney Star Wars gets purged from the lore.
-
Raphael De Varona (@RaphaelDeVarona) reported@OrangeGrove55 @DisTouristBlog I think they know DCA has that problem, and I do believe they are going to get to it, when of course is always the big issue with Disney.
-
ClairebigBlue🇮🇪🔜🇨🇵 (@ClairebigBlue) reportedDoes the sing a Disney song hack work with these as well?
-
Dead Tom (@LegendDeadTom) reported@Wezzelus @DashingDavidYT It made KH3 so much worse. The soul and heart that was captured with KH1 and KH2 that NO ONE thought would work was taken out of 3 and it felt just like one massive Disney plug.
-
Dru 🇺🇸 (@LAKingsDru) reported@anabelle_dawn Remember how this show kept losing viewers every week? Remember how terrible the writing and acting were? Remember how the shills slopped up every spoonful of Disney SW serving they were fed? Yeah…good times
-
beanmouth strikes again (@piperocktheory) reportedkeeping Clone Wars canon destroyed Star Wars more than anything Disney did prior to 2018 (and informed many of their worst decisions from Solo onward) the biggest sin of Clone Wars (besides reviving dead characters) is its inclination to give EVERYTHING an unnecessary backstory
-
Rose of Sharon Mayer (@RozeRage) reported@AdamPippert Yes! I was watching one of the episodes of Caleb Hammer’s “financial audit“ and there was a Disney adult on there and she was basically one of the most awful people I’ve ever seen. They were tens of thousands of dollars in debt because of her obsession with Disney and Caleb asked her about it and she said “I didn’t really get to have a childhood so I’m doing that now“ and the husband commented that she’d been doing that “for the last 10 years“ and to grow up.
-
Bob Baskerville (@TheHoundBB) reported@SomeRndmGuyUT Perhaps, but when a company pays you north of $60M annually, goes without saying that the leverage rests with the employer, and if they feel McAfee’s presence on a high profile show will help preserve, maybe even elevate ad rates down the line for Disney, the network is going to squeeze every drop out of their asset that they can. Can he say “no” to that? I suppose he can, but he also may not have a choice for that “deal with the devil” kind of money!
-
Zeitgeist Zealots Podcast (@ZZealotspodcast) reported@PaulSSYS This is a real Disney problem. Remember their Cruella prequel where they portrayed the lady that wants to skin 101 puppies just to make a coat as the sympathetic protagonist 🙄🙄 This is purposefully brainwashing women into thinking they can do anything they want bc "victims"
-
Brad Robertson (@brob361) reported@BrerOswald This is a very positive trend. The least charitable reading is that Disney is fixing things that have been broken and brand tarnishing for decades. The positive to take from this is that they made significant announcements *not based on IP*: that’s a game changer.

Vinnie T. (@VinnieTambe) reported@TheOutside88999 @ThemePahk Same, I think they should've added at least one more thrill coaster, then keep spoon-feeding the Disney adults. Lightning Rod now looks like one of the worst RMC's since they didn't increase the height of the lift hill to keep up to it's original speed.
