Imagine having decades of source material to rely on, including absolutely beloved story arcs, and then decide to toss it all, and make up a bunch of inferior junk. 😂
"Hey. We've got all these characters that have selling comics for decades and that we were able to turn in a multi-billion dollar movie franchise. You know what we should do? Get rid of all those characters because 'diversity'" Great idea. Why stick with what works when you can highlight characters people don't know in poorly written movies featuring bad special effects? Do people understand why sometimes gatekeeping is a good thing now? Victoria Alonso doesn't understand superheroes and shouldn't have had any say in what characters were going to be used.
I can smell it all the way across the country! Why investors took so long to fire these fools is beyond me. Do they NOT want to make money? Does no one have a fiduciary duty to them?!
To be fair, considering how anything that doesn’t contain woke ideology in it is cancelled into oblivion by the woke mob these days, I can see how they don’t have any idea of what the fans want.
@@K3nM3g CEO - What do the fans want? PR man - The fans want their old favorite heroes CFO - But we need more movies to appease our stockholders CEO - Could we make up a Multiverse? CDO - Great!! And fill them with Diversity!! Fans - What's on Amazon?
It could be a factor of both. MCU movies used to be events. Then it became almost a necessity to watch them because if you don’t then you might miss something that would be a big deal in a future movie. It almost became a chore. Add to that the agenda that they’re pushing mixed in with storylines and plots that aren’t exactly eye-catching, it became mundane to watch.
No, ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantum-mania’ is not the worst title ever. That goes to ‘Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of one Harley Quinn’.
How casually they insult and ruin art and creations that people (e.g. Stan Lee, Jack Kirby) have dedicated their entire lives too while losing so many fans of the genre and comics is an absolute disgrace and I am so glad it backfires on them.
You can very simply sum up why Disney has been getting worse and worse over the years: This is the result of a billion dollar business being staffed and ran by people who were hired based on a diversity quota and a focus on pushing politics everywhere, instead of hiring on merit, and a goal of entertaining and making the most money possible. Things will change. In the end their practices don't match what a company like them NEEDS to continue operation. The degree of change I think will be the minimum required to be successful again.
I don’t think there is fundamentally anything inherently wrong with these three words, it’s the shitty execution in movies that F’s up each and every time.
I love your passion, man. I'm beyond exhausted with the crap, and I have too many other ways to spend my entertainment dollars than to waste it on production houses that hate me and keep blaming us for their ideology's failures. Keep doing what you do, brother.
Yep. Watching Disney burn is more entertaining than anything they have released as you said in years. They had so much good will from us, but they are part of the anti-white great replacement, preach on their pedestals about how holy they are and evil we are, and they came for our kids. They !@#$ing came for our kids. And for that, the Groomer kingdom can NEVER be forgiven. Let it burn. Scoop up the ashes, and put the ashes in a rocket and launch it into the sun, just to be sure.
I'm glad you mentioned SpiderMan. That film came out during the holidays of 2021 when we saw a huge surge of Covid cases around the world due mostly to the Omicron variant, and yet the film still made nearly $2 Billion world wide without China.
Not a comic book person, but I am sick of woke culture, and I very much hate Hollywood. I've been watching your channel all morning, and I just subbed. Your stuff is funny. Great work, guys and girls!
@@13thdukeofwybourne69 oh yeah, and if you kept clicking there eventually would be additional voice lines acknowledging the fact you are molesting the unit with your mouse clicks. After all the years I can't quite remember what they were exactly for the boat unit, but I remember they were pretty funny 🙂
These people are so disconnected from the public it's comical. Keep doing what you're doing you'll eventually bankrupt Hollywood and we're seeing it right now with the writers strike.
A great man once said "In time you will know what its like to lose, to feel so desperately that you're right yet to fail all the same, dread it, run from it, destiny still arrives'
When will they start listening to actual fans who actually read the comics and have a good understanding of what the audience wants? How much does it take for Disney to wake up and realize that this isn't working for them or really no one in that matter?
I think they've honestly come to believe that any and all criticism of them and their works is solely because of various isms and phobias. They were told and told that if they went down the path they were on people would stop watching, just like people have stopped reading Marvel and DC comics.
Plenty of good movies out there if you are willing to not watch Comic book rubbish! I have never really been a fan of the MCU or DC outside of a handful of films ( Batman 89 , Superman 78 , The first Captain America was ok , the first Iron man was fine......the rest I just think are " Muh" ) Get into some Horror , some great TV shows to watch, watch the 100 greatest movies list honestly this MCU shit is the McDonald's of Cinema , fine if you are hungry enough but doesn't have any real substance.
Thanks for continuously providing me with solid info that prevents me from making the mistake of getting D+. Keep it up, your content is so much better than the rubbish Disney is pushing out. The more they crap out, the more content you have to make good videos. Well done!
I just can’t CANT understand these decisions made at each and every level… I think I speak for all of here that’s it’s so damn mind numbingly frustrating and incomprehensible that we can’t find the words so we watch these videos for someone to vent the right words for us…
Someone should make a video that’s starts off showing flashes of all the crap Disney has made recently, just really laying them all out… Then cutting to Bob Iger yelling at Bob Chapek, saying, “Tony Stark was able to build this in a cave, with a box of scraps.” And then cut to Walt Disney, His amazing team and flashes of all the fantastic stuff we grew up with.
Why color inside the lines? Its not like the artist put them there for a reason. Its not like the person who created the picture expected you to respect their vision. Toddler says fuck it, and the MCU said “If a toddler can do that and be praised for it we can be too.”
Imagine filling your leadership roles with the least qualified, motivated, and professional people and wondering why your company's in a tailspin. The Bestbuy equivalent of Alonso is someone who hates the color blue and struggles with the 'settings' menu of their Samsung TV.
@ 5:10 In countries like mine you are not allowed to bad mouth your employee in public, because as employee you have to maintain a certain degree of loyalty to your company, and among other, cause no harm to it. So it is not only a breach of contract, failing success, and creating an toxic environment (=> mobbing, verbal abuse etc. pp.) but also violating her obligations to her employer.
"I would like Disney/Marvel to take a couple of days off so I can touch some grass, but if they don't I'll be here, because I can do this all day." - Gary
I never understood how/why a company would hire someone who has never read, or even states a hate for comics to lead a comic based movie. It would be like Disney hiring someone who actively hates past Disney movies and putting then in charge of future Disney content and......(ahhhh....damn, bad example). Star Wars, yes putting someone who hates Star Wa.....oh crap...ahhh...Why would you do that?
That quote from Jack Kirby is amazing, and it really highlights the Stark contrast in not just the quality of writing of then vs. now, but the quality of writers as well. Jack Kirby loved people. Do you honestly think modern writers love anything?
@Biggie Trismegistus Yeah, but that's not actually love. It's the type of love an addict has for their addiction. They know it's bad for them, and they stopped having any real enjoyment or passion for it long ago, but it's become so ingrained in what they are, and they lack the will and courage to imagine themselves without it.
Victoria Alonzo: Who makes the decisions? Former Hollywood: People who are a lot smarter and have much more experience than you. Victoria Alonzo: Then I'll take over. Disney: You're fired.
Has anyone heard about the financial games that may have been going on at Disney. It's probably the reason Chaepek was fired sunday night. So he couldn't learn about it monday morning. Only Midnights Edge Live Archives has spoken about this and neither Nerdrotic nor Doomcock has mentioned this ( If either one has, I missed the vid and I apologize ). This is huge. It explains alot of the actions at Disney, and if Iger losses control, could bring down not just Iger, but alot of the board also. This could be a major financial scandal bigger than the recent bank collapse. I'm trying to find out more, but there's not alot comming.
FWIW, Argentina 1985 was decent. I'm not a comic-book movie guy, but I tune into Nerdrotic here and there for the Amazon- and Disney-schadenfreude especially.
"Nerdrotic".....is the one RU-vid channel i find has the same top tier quality content whatever the subject matter....and thats because of a thing that Hollywood has never had and now "The House Of Mouse" realises it is the perfect size to fail. So Gary you and the Drinker "keep calm and carry on" because we are going to need good honest knowledge when the Access Media is being buried!
The only thing I look forward to, is watching Box Office Failures through out Summer 2023. It already started out as a trainwreck!😁 GO BANKRUPT ALREADY BOBS DISNEY!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
The worst thing isn’t the bad writing , the disrespect, not even the shitting on the fans. It’s the damage to our young people that were exposed to this garbage.
The self inflicted damage has been so unnecessary. It’s not as though making all these movies more woke has made certain minority groups happier- nor has it helped ‘break down barriers’. The only thing it’s done is reduce viewership of large swathes of content. From Marvel to the Buzz Lightyear movie, they have done untold damage for no real reason. Everyone of every background went to see their stuff in the past, now there’s stuff nobody wants to watch.
Another great video, friend! IMO, since they destroyed The Avengers (the last movie I loved was Infinity War) their only option is to perfectly cast and write The Fantastic Four, starting with Dr. Doom and ending with Galactus and the Silver Surfer.
Jonathan Majors got a bit too much into his new role of a villain and kept doing villainous acts in real life as well. Talk about dedication to his job!
Why did Gary morph a picture of UFO expert and Intelligence Agent Luis Elizondo and Thanos together with Roseanne Barr doing something gross and vaguely pornographic in the background?!!
I know I posted earlier but, I have another question. It is about "love and Thunder" I will admit I have not seen the movie, the previews were enough for me. Now the question. In the previews there is a scene where Thor is being held captive in what appears to be a stadium, and ALL of his clothes are magically removed. Did this scene make it into the movie? If so, what would have been the reaction of the woke mob if this happened to a female character?
They could’ve recast T’Challa but instead, in Wakanda Forever Shuri became the lead of the movie while her brother was alive.....nnnnnnnnnn-amor. Too soon?
The way her lawyer keeps bringing up the movie nominated for an Oscar like it’s a legal precedent or something. If it wasn’t that would mean Disney marvel could fire her. Lmfao I can’t wit these idiots. Thinking her lawyer is just taking her money knowing she’s gonna lose. Contract is a contract and that’s legally binding not Oscar nominations.
You're wrong ! She would need lots of make up cause she's so ugly no one would believe that someone so ugly would ever exist, even in comic books. Not to mention the fact that no one wants to see the Penguin or any other character spend the whole movie bitching about men.
Dr strange 2 was my last marvel movie. I watched endgame, skipped a few movies, then tried to go back to dr strange 2 because I liked the first one. It was kinda sucking, then I got to the 2 moms part. That was it for me. Turned it off and I was done with marvel for good. And yes, I’m giving it up for good. I gave up watching sports for good and I used to be a huge football fan. Haven’t watched a game in over 2 years.
@@lesterparker1594 I hear ya. I’m done with sports too. Every single one has given in to the woke crap. They won’t get one more penny or second of attention from me.
@@libertas5005I seriously doubt they will learn anything, and that's all fine by me. I agree. Call me spiteful, call me cynical, I'm going to enjoy watching some of the people responsible for fuxking with my life go through a little pain.
The problem is that they didn't failed their own company/movie/etc. They ruined something WE love and care about. It's the same as watching a moron destroying your house and then say "lol I told you don't nothing about construction!" Then realizing he can just go away and you left with no house.
Thank you!!! For that “innocent until proven guilty” part. One of the absolute worst parts of “wokeness” is their reflex to ruin someone on the basis of a rumor
It's kind of our fault by not jumping into their shlt the first time we see a woke cancel-comment on any social media. It's just a bunch of cowardly kids pounding away on their computers. Social Media has made stupid people important. Crazy.
@@pannoncannon No, mate...it's like you're replying to someone else. Your comment makes no sense in the context it's in. Are you sure you've replied to the right comment? The comment you've replied to is; "Thank you!!! For that “innocent until proven guilty” part. One of the absolute worst parts of “wokeness” is their reflex to ruin someone on the basis of a rumor" And you've replied by saying that all the OP does is use buzzwords, yet there is not a single buzzword there whatsoever at all. Literally nothing in the OP is a buzzword. The closest one is 'wokeness' but given the context it was most certainly not being used as a buzzword. Then, you also have the audacity to accuse @mainzergirl9610 of having poor literacy skills despite YOU being the one with poor literacy skills. So...yeah, gonna have to agree with mainzergirl here. Sense, you did not make! Mm!
@@MrRaffles1234 I think that's when we all quit! I honestly tried dr Strange in the MoM, but it was so bad I could not get through. I also tried Moon Knight and it was even worse...
