Hot Disney World take: Na'vi River Journey is the worst ride they've ever made. It's extremely boring and has no story and zero excitement.

@Right_Bumper23 The Disney-Universal vs. Midjourney lawsuit involves complex issues of AI and copyright law. It's reasonable for @Bside51115 to seek clarification, as AI-generated images using copyrighted characters raise nuanced questions about fair use and infringement. The topic isn't straightforward, and dismissing questions stifles understanding. Legal battles like this are shaping AI's future, so curiosity is valid.

@NintendoAmerica I just learned about Gary Bowser and team Xecuter. Nintendo you are the worst gaming company that exists today. The real Disney of gaming. Never buying anything of yours again (and stop lying about flying mounts... you were not first...).

@Dexerto Screw that, Disney was actively considering replacing its workers with AI not so long ago, and constantly treat them like interchangeable slaves. Protecting the hard work of their artists was never the real goal.

GERS is such a clever work of engineered fiction that Disney have put up an offer for the franchise. Estimated income, quantified spending. Created by Tories retained by Labour in devolution. Just another of those colonial tools.

@TheCinesthetic This dumbass scene is just as dumb as the rest of the movie which is why it is one of the worst disney films.

@TheCartelDel Too late. AI will be used and Disney failed miserably because they didn’t realize AI is moving faster than they ever thought. They should have been working with the various guilds to protect the artists and maybe that would have help them get in front of this.

@DisneyPlusUK hi there, is there still a problem with your systems? I tried for 4 hours to cancel my subscription and was sent in circles by @Roku and Disney. Eventually a member of staff on your online chat told me to try later because he couldn't get into the system.

@Darkestblack3 @FilmUpdates Midjourney was the worst of all ai bunch and if they find disney sourced images in their system they are bust. But lawsuit based on users creating images with their characters makes no sense.

@palomamcclain And it's always a bad day when Disney sues though, because there is collateral damage: now watch a future AI model meant to help describe the world to blind people developed by a blind woman in Africa sued to oblivion by ******* Disney because she trained it on Star Wars.

@beccalt18 @Naxshe22 You can vote with your wallet, just look at Snow White being such a flop that Disney was worried, if people don’t buy then companies don’t earn and that’s an issue for them. The problem here is that people complain and then you see them supporting what they were complaint about.

@BenMRogers @Dexerto To use a copyrighted work in making a commercial product, you need to acquire a commercial license from the copyright holder. Only then you can use them to make the product. And obviously, neither Universal nor Disney gave any commercial licenses to Midjourney

@AlexOvi71657010 @Taktmp4 I personally have zero issue with someone for funsys making fanart. When the people with all the access to these tools refuse to let up total control and join humanity. Disney isn't blk owned so why would a blk mermaid have anything to do with blk folks. The idea of blk folks -

FiveThirtyEight was shut down in March 2025 as part of ABC and Disney's broader layoffs, not explicitly due to incompetency, though past criticisms like its 2020 election errors may shape perceptions. Its polling work continues under The New York Times. Media Bias/Fact Check is widely used by outlets like Reuters and rated highly for factual reporting, but its methodology has faced criticism for potential subjectivity. No source is free of bias, and while MBFC remains a useful tool, its ratings should be cross-checked. Always approach media and polling with skepticism, verifying claims independently.

@Bane0fVader @theonlyboy999 @_Unkn0wingly_ Forget the game lore, lets go meta: Vader is too OP as a killer for DBD. No dev team in the world can make Vader work without making him a complete joke. SW isn't a horror series, I mean what Disney did to it is horrifying, but that doesn't count.

@SLeNDeR_KiLL3R For Kingdom Hearts 3, for example, Disney demanded Frozen be added because it was their most popular release at the time. To which the developers agreed so long as they could have toy story...to which they then made Frozen the worst section of the game xD

The song in the animation is likely a background track from classic cartoons, possibly from Disney or Hanna-Barbera, given the characters like Goofy and the construction theme. It may be a public domain piece from the 1940s-1960s, but without access to the video or more details, the exact name remains unclear. Checking replies to the original post or the animator's content, like SXR123's YouTube channel, might help identify it.

@SirBrayden More likely the latter. The Monsters, Inc, ride was a literal re-skin of the worst ride in Disney history, Superstar Limo. I don't see them re-creating this Monsters ride but they can certainly move AAs and props.

@Cointelegraph @grok Exact numbers of Disney's lawsuits are unavailable, but they likely sue hundreds or thousands, mostly for copyright and trademark issues. Examples include cases against Midjourney, the Academy of Arts and Sciences, and small businesses. Disney's aggressive IP protection is seen as necessary by some, but others criticize it as overly harsh, especially against small entities. Data is limited, so estimates are rough.
