Gina Carano Sues Disney Over ‘Mandalorian’ Firing In Lawsuit Funded by Elon Musk
"If you’re asking if you can trust me, you cannot. Just as you betrayed our business arrangement, I would gladly break any promise and watch you die at my hand. The assurance I give is this: I will act in my own self-interest, which at this time involves your cooperation and benefit." — Moff Disney

"I’m shooting my way out of here." — Cara Dune

Walt Disney was a creative genius, but not a good businessman. His brother Roy was the financial end of the business. This is modern Disney:

I thought Ms. Carano stopped kicking people's asses to take up acting.

Turns out she's still kicking ass and taking names.

GOOD FOR HER!



As an aside, I may be the only person whose parents would not allow Disney in their home. I was about 16 when I saw my first Disney movie. But, there were benefits... for example, I was allowed to watch drool over Emma Peel.

Disney would take on most people, but they saw Musk was funding and took a dive.

They were in a no possible win situation.

When the judge ordered them to discovery they folded like a cheap lawn chair. The internal docs must have been so horrendous their lawyers went to the C suite and said you people are F’d, we reccomend settling.

Once she made it past dismissal, Disney was done.

Really well thought out by her lawyer/stupid by Disney to say “they had a first amendment right to control who they associate with,” rather than just going “no comment on pending litigation,” etc.

TMK, Disney is dependent on children, and the left-wing doesn’t have parents who can afford/will take their kids to Disney.
