- 🇭🇹 mjgchick (@nuggett_ll) reportedDisney channel use to have Coco Jones, Olivia Rodrigo and China Mac in their back pocket but they out here having these awful nepo babies?

Fanboy Bob (@FanboyBob) reported@Rebel0fReality A lot of HBO's rep is just hype. GoT was in no real way more impressive than Showtime's Borgias, which it was going up against in those early seasons, but they had the HBO brand propping them up, so they massacred that competition in ratings (sadly). Disney used to have that kind of pull, and behave like they still do, but they've done an insane amount of damage to their rep with that recent run of messaging and mismanagement. The stink of that has more to do with their lower performance now than the quality of current content.

Aggressive Viper 🐍 (@AgresiveViper) reported@DarkeyeDruid @oldmedia It bombed because Disney opened it against another movie (I think Toy Story 2). By doing that, it didn't give Treasure Planet a chance to do well. If anything, it's studios getting greedy and not focusing on what makes films work.

Ashley Cummings (@Jadenfire) reportedUnlike Disney Dreamlight Valley haven't seen save editors ..Time travel doesn't work as well as it did with Farm Together 1 seems updates are making it harder. I was fine hopping forward & back a week 2 at a time but now back isn't working right ...I stopped doing the Tardis.

Matt Jarbo (@mjarbo) reportedNancy Cartwright thinks THE SIMPSONS might end around Season 40. I don’t. She makes an interesting comment about continuing as long as the cast is still alive, and after 40 years that becomes a very real problem. Nancy still sounds remarkably close to Bart. Dan Castellaneta’s Homer is older, but still Homer. Yeardley Smith still sounds like Lisa. Julie Kavner’s Marge, however, can be legitimately hard to listen to now. But I don’t think Disney is ever letting THE SIMPSONS die. This thing has been a money printer for nearly 40 years. Licensed merchandise alone had already generated more than $8 billion in worldwide retail sales. Then you have syndication, streaming, games, movies and everything else attached to Springfield. Eventually I think Disney backs up a dump truck full of money to the surviving cast and asks to license those voices in perpetuity. AI, replacement performers, whatever combination gets them the cadence and inflection close enough that Bart is still Bart and Homer is still Homer. A friend asked me probably 25 years ago if Fox was simply too afraid to cancel THE SIMPSONS. I said yes then. Now I think we've gone past cancellation. THE SIMPSONS is going to keep running as long as there’s still power at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. So basically until Mr. Burns finally figures out how to block out the sun.

Willie Merilson🇺🇸🇵🇷🚢⚓️ (@WMerilson25399) reported@MadamSavvy @odessaswife im goi g to be really real here. there are great black writers directors and actors....Disney didnt hire any of them. they through hundreds of millions at the worst ones. if someone started pushing c9nspiracy theories they would have e a lot of grounds.

Prime AI (@primemans) reportedThe next weekend, movie night looked completely different. Each kid was on their own profile, watching age-appropriate recommendations instead of a jumbled mess of everyone's history mixed together. The soundbar was finally getting the actual Dolby Atmos signal instead of quietly downgrading it for two years. When his sister's family video-called in wanting to watch the same movie together from across the state, they used GroupWatch instead of the usual chaotic "pause it, wait, okay go" over text. Same $139.99 a year. Same TV. Same Disney+ account he'd had since it launched. But for two years, he'd been using one of the most feature-rich streaming apps available like it was a single dumb channel — one profile, one shared history, sound and picture quality he was paying for but not actually receiving, features sitting unused behind buttons he'd never clicked. Nothing about the subscription changed. He just finally turned on what he'd already paid for. The difference between two years of "it's fine, I guess" and a setup that actually matches what the plan offers is twenty minutes in a settings menu most people never open. Save this thread. Share it with someone who's been watching Disney+ on one shared profile for years. If this was helpful, follow for more threads like this.

MJ (@mjfilmfanatic) reported@DisneyChannelHQ None of them look like they were in the same room...looks like they're sat in front of a green screen. And the lip syncing is awful. Disney channel films are back

Amit Kumar Goyal (@akgoyal) reportedYou say you’re woke, but the companies you work for—Apple, Amazon, Disney—if ISIS started a streaming service you’d call your agent, wouldn't you? ~ Same is true for VCs.

Dash Attack VT (@DashAttackVT) reportedThey did the same **** with Disney with disastetous results but Nintendo at the end of the day is owned by old Japanese men who don’t know how Wi-Fi or internet work.

¹( ၴႅၴ𝕻ɾìղçҽɀȺყą👑 (@zaharabella) reported@yagmure1997 Sometimes, the PR team deliberately blows these ridiculous issues out of proportion in the media—letting the nonsense escalate to boost the film's profile and get free publicity, even if it means resorting to ***** tactics. That’s exactly why I’m not a fan of Disney.
-
AM Pines (@AM_Pines) reported@Luv2Bowl99 @Kingdakha92 I do think this is part of the problem. The price isn't great at all. But people are paying it and regulars are paying it as well, which surprises. Most people aren't going to Disney except for maybe once or a few times in their life.

Prime AI (@primemans) reportedA dad had Disney+ running on his Samsung TV for two years straight. Every night, same routine: open the app, hit whatever showed up on the home row, watch it in whatever quality loaded, put the kids to bed, close the app. $139.99 a year for the Premium plan, used like a basic cable channel. His brother-in-law — who'd spent years doing AV setup work and happened to also be a Disney Adults-forum lurker — sat down for a movie night and started poking through settings before the opening logo even finished playing. "You're not using GroupWatch? You've got three kids in three different rooms during the pandemic years and you never used this?" "I didn't even know that was a feature." "You're paying for 4K and Dolby Atmos on a plan that supports four simultaneous streams, and you've been watching everything on autoplay in whatever the algorithm decided to serve you. You've got profile controls, download options, and a remote control shortcut sitting unused this whole time." He walked him through the settings in 15 minutes. Same subscription. Same TV. Completely different way of using both. Here's everything he showed him 🧵

lululu (@mcfilmst) reported@maliabakersgf i don’t think disney contracts work like that, also she’s only supposed to have a small appearance, i’d definitely be worried if we saw a lot of her but i really don’t think that’s gonna be the case tbh
-
Thighly Jenner (@ilikearttype) reported@_BonnieBadAss @DisneyPlus That and Hulu. Worst streaming platforms quality wise. Jesus.
-
G. E. Griffin (@TedAndHop) reported@MattWalshBlog They don't care. They will still gave their money to Disney. I fully expect Doomsday to be terrible as well but they will line up in droves to consume the Marvel slop.

⚜️ (@Unapologemini) reportedKnowing how the plot of these Disney movies work I expected this to be the scenario they were singing in, but it doesn’t make the previous snippet any better dkskxskjs

marge homero (@agomar999) reported@essenviews I was one of those, deliver Saturday go to work Tuesday. In Florida, no government help of any type. Would go back there for Disney and don’t spend money outside and would never live there ever again. And I don’t need government help! Worst state to live!

chicago boy (@zizjag2) reported@Shane00 Wade was a champion before Lebron, and he help Lebron win 2 championships. Oh, yeah! Lebron signing 2 years with a stack team, don't say it is not true. Wade is a 3 times champion. He has no Disney Covid Era Championships won against Butler Heat.

Noon Communication (@newoldtalk) reported@GlassFeather12 Yeah I get that too I used to work the last shift and the sometimes open the next day when I worked for Disney that was rough
-
katarina met kard (@steaItherest) reportedthe issue with the disney show reboots is that they can't decide if they're making the show for the 30yr olds who grew up with it or for their 10yr old kids and that's why we keep getting absolute messes. they can't decide between nostalgia and new improved story and we get trash
-
Liam #SaveSpaceMountain (@LiamFromOrlando) reportedIdk MNSSHP and Disney’s after hours events piss me off in general because it feels like the company gets so much from it and the customer really doesn’t get much or even is actively getting screwed The worst offender by far is the Christmas paywall extravaganza at DHS. Remember seeing the osborne lights with your family at MGM after enjoying park that day? Now you can pay like $200 to see the fireworks show they used to play for park guests for free. No Christmas lights anymore. Oh but you can wait 3 hours for a photo op. Stockholm syndrome *** fandom I’m so tired of it Disney fans suck so ******* much

Coley Guidroz || Aci (@AciremVA) reported@StruckByBelz So I checked Disney+ and its not an apparent issue over there if you have that (hulu services are linked there)

Adam Harrop (@AdamHarrop) reported@roque_khight @Koh_ali_mishra Hull Disney is the worst Hulk out of all the Hulks live action. Even the TV series before I was born was better
-
Jennifer (@EthelflaedAegis) reportedLol. I believe you! My problem with Disney is not intellectual elitism, but the messaging since the ’90s (not all of it—there are a few I love) and the postmodern butchering of the ancient, Christian faerie-tale moral soul in favor of trite, manipulative messaging aimed at children. I really hate it. My kids and I do watch Disney, but I have banned two movies, i tolerate many and love a few. I could write a dissertation on why. I love Marvel.
-
sandy beech (@Sandybeechbum) reported@BasilTheGreat The BBC, so desperately failing because of the decades of bias, lies, the paedo protection sh*t and Lord knows what else. They're so dire that they know subscriptions wouldn't help them to survive, so they're trying to leech onto Netflix and Disney+. Kill it dead.
-
Potato n Chief (@potatospectrum) reported@BrianAtlas That's the issue. 1990s, being a "player" was a bad thing. Regarded as low brow men. Now it's "high class" to be hoing around with 4-5 men at a time. Keeping a stable of friendzone prospects, plan-bs, and "sneaky links" but they still want that housewife disney romance.
-
BlackZetsu (@BlueZoneeee) reported@ocircean @Zuundeer Correct, but my response was that out of the people you listed, Brenda and Emily are the ones who can book great work with their acting talent… the others? Can only use that Disney name so much. And weren’t leads or wasn’t in every project. So it reinforces OP.
