.38supersigDisney has gone full woke
Got to thinking about what Disney movies I have on hand. Just one:
Song of the South Yup, I'll do just fine without them.

Recently bought that on DVD.
Sent a copy to my son and kept other copy for myself.

Just checked... two vintage VHS tapes is all here (and yes we still have fully functional VHS machines).
No desire to add anything newer.

PASigThis is amazing to me. I can’t figure out whether Disney just doesn’t get it or just does not give a shit, but they are just intent on going down this road and it’s like watching a slo-mo trainwreck.
So they are going to replace Johnny Depp with a minority female as the lead role? Do they not understand that Captain Jack Sparrow IS the entire franchise?

Ryanp225Programming our kids from an early age to hate themselves if they are white, straight, or American.
Home school you kids.
Keep them away from the internet unless strictly monitored.
Do not allow any woke content to be in their lives until they are old enough and taught well enough to see through it.

Yeah, saw that yesterday or the day before
In my mind it's not so much they're replacing Depp. (Though that seems stupid.) My big problem is ...
quote:
Ms. Edebiri ... is being considered for the role of Anne, purportedly based on the historical figure Anne Bonny, a 17th-century female pirate, according to a post on X.
Fine, replace Depp with a female lead based upon a 17th-century Irish female pirate. But for the love of God, stop blackwashing every historical figure in history. It's just stupid.
I won't watch this. I won't even be tempted.
This seems germane to the topic of this thread...

PrefontaineI’ve been done with these clowns. They bought and ruined Star Wars. Superho is beyond played out. Over-saturation isn’t even enough of a correct term. They decimate everything they touch. They just love losing money. I’m reminded of a Samuel L. Jackson quote from one of his movies. “Yes they deserved to die and I hope they BURN IN HELL!” We’re all fucking sick of this bullshit.

.38supersigWell, back in the day,
The Little Mermaid did have a gold penis on the cover.
Back then it didn't go over well. They would be proud of it now.

Just a minor drift, but that is from "Rules of Engagement", which I thought was a GREAT movie. Entertainment Value - 11...
As for Disney and what they've turned into...pfffft. They can suck it.

Even more thread drift, I think that's a line from "A Time to Kill".

CitadelI lament the Demise of the Old Tom and Jerry Cartoons. They got scrubbed before all this nonsense and some of the best episodes are gone. I would literally split my sides from laughing so hard. More the loss.
