Jeebbers (@Thtomb) reported@OliverJia1014 Actually, we all can agree on what Star Wars should be, it is Disney that can't seem to figure it out. The reason why people say that Andor wasn't great Star Wars is the same reason people say that Breath of the Wild was a terrible Zelda game, but a great game.

R O Junior (@Ro__Junior) reported@Rach4Patriarchy I was just talking to my wife about this. I believe birth control and ssris contribute not only to hormone changes that allow for the increased weight gain, but the broken minds that are needed to become a Disney adults.

KayC (@KayC_Slizzy) reportedThe email scammers, text messages scammers, door to door salesmen are all trying their best to get money from you. I got about 30 emails back to back saying someone trying to login to my Disney + and I don’t even have one

Based Pete (@based_pete) reported@sitcomcrave What's crazy is the caliber of her acting work has not evolved beyond her C-tier Disney show. But I guess it's cool that she got to pick the show's name. What a girlboss

****** bc im up (@IgnantLilNiggLt) reported@ObiTheOneNonly A lot of people literally think bullying is some Disney channel ****. Ik people who were robbed, lied on, jumped, beaten, manipulated, even groped as a form of bullying in school. It was so awful, they would force the quiet ones to fight then jump em. We were middle schoolers 🫤

Mackay Bell (@mackaybell) reported@MarioNawfal There were six major film studios in 2000, when digital cameras started to make an impact. Fox has been sold to Disney since. Meanwhile, Amazon sucked up mini-major MGM/UA. And Warner Bros. was just sucked up by Paramount, leaving only four remaining. So at least two and a half long established major studios have effectively been lost in two decades after the digital revolution. But the disappearance of major studios is only part of the issue. Their relevance in the entertainment world is shrinking too. Apple is a completely new feature and television competitor started from the ground up only seven years ago. Virtually all (effectively 99%+) of Apple TV+ shows and movies are shot digitally. It has received 30-35 Oscar nominations in this short period and numerous Emmys and Golden Globes. Apple has the financial resources to buy up a major studio any time it likes, but it’s probably cheaper, thanks to digital cameras and post, to do what it is doing and create one from scratch. Netflix offers another prime example: it has dominated global streaming with well over 300 million subscribers, far ahead of any traditional studio’s streaming efforts, while racking up major awards (including dozens of Oscars and Emmys) and increasingly moving into theatrical releases for its biggest titles. Like Apple, the vast majority of Netflix originals are shot digitally to meet its 4K production standards. Meanwhile, the podcast industry, a format that barely existed at scale two decades ago, is already pulling in roughly $30–40 billion globally in 2026, closing in on or rivaling the entire worldwide theatrical box office (currently hovering around $34–35 billion). This low-overhead, creator-driven medium is generating serious revenue with tiny teams and is only economically feasible thanks to digital cameras. Who knows what they will be able to do now with AI. Add in YouTube, started in 2005, which now pulls in over $60 billion in annual revenue, dwarfing the entire global theatrical box office. It is powered almost entirely by independent creators shooting on consumer cameras and phones, with far greater cultural impact than the traditional studios which chase tentpoles and theatrical windows. And it is quickly becoming a distributor that the major studios are rushing to provide content for, and depend on for marketing. Meanwhile, Disney had to pay billions for Pixar and Lucasfilm because it couldn’t come up with sufficient four-quadrant films on its own. It has arguably destroyed both of those companies, or at least seen less than a full return on those investments. Prominent early digital filmmakers/advocates like Robert Rodriguez, Gareth Edwards, Neill Blomkamp, David Fincher, Steven Soderbergh, Danny Boyle and Sean Baker continue to have great success and have been co-opted into the studio distribution system while retaining independent power. The notion that giant established companies come up with the great original ideas and AI can’t compete with their “forward looking” creative insights is absurd. They have tons of money to throw spaghetti against the wall, but their track record of making it stick isn’t much better than random (which is why the major studios have to keep consolidating or buying up outside IP or talent). But he misses the bigger point. AI is not going to be asked to make decisions on what projects to throw money at. Mostly because clueless executives like him want that power for themselves, even if their track record isn’t spectacular. Which is why it is self-serving to argue AI couldn't do his job better than him. What will happen is AI, like digital cameras, will further empower independent creators, like it did with digital cameras, who will have more opportunities to compete on an increasingly competitive creative field. And those people are likely to have better ideas for “forward looking” entertainment than clustered executives. (Maybe by bouncing ideas off of AI.) If the majority of those breakthroughs are bought up by bigger companies with big budgets, that doesn’t prove big companies are more “forward looking” but proves they can’t come up with enough good ideas on their own.

Randal Eckert 🇺🇸 (@EckertRandal) reportedI can’t understand for the life of me why the @espn app is so bad. It’s just awful, it never works.. Do better @Disney

emily (@haemjjji) reported@djlong00 @NickWatts It depends on the character you're portraying. I don't want to reveal where I work but the character I am is like 5 years old in the cartoon so she has to be short as possible. I think Mr. Met has to be tall and I know Goofy at the Disney parks has to be tall

m (@M11122233344454) reported@AdamDroge @KevinLamb74 Well AotC definitely is teh worst SW film but I don't count Disney fan fiction. If you want to consider Disney's films then AotC is a great movie.

Ikami Igami (@ikamigamichan) reportedThe worst thing is that people don't see the bigger picture here. The only ones happy if Glitch won't succeed and fell off would be big corpos like Disney and Warner Bros. Yes indie stuff won't disappear but they won't ever reach level of corpo if things will continue like that.

JustAnotherBecky (@BeckyAnoth86604) reported@bennyjohnson I’m not a fan of these particular people. However. I was a kid that had her whole childhood ripped from her due to every kind of abuse you can imagine. I frequent Disney. I’m living out the childhood I never had. I couldn’t care less if you have a problem with that

Marc Cinqmars (@goji175) reportedOkay so....Star Wars,I finally drifted back and actually watched something new,first on May 4th I noticed the new Maul show had ep 1 on YouTube so I decided to check it out,then tonight since I finally watched new Star Wars I subscribed to Disney plus to watch Andor,I'll give a very brief review of both first episodes: Maul. It's definitely not bad,has a marvel comics from the 80's vibe to it,does look like Star Wars,Maul himself is enjoyable as a character. Bad is I don't like the padwan character,whatever her name is,the whole "angry young wholesome character will be corrupted and struggle back to the light,or become a tragic evil character" is boring ****,done to death,drop her in the goddamn volcano where Vader was born. Andor. I really liked Rogue One so I'm not disappointed in this one,it REALLY feels like the old marvel comics Star Wars of the 80's,like they're actually trying to create parts of the galaxy outside of the main films that we don't normally see so I'm cool with the show's vibe. Bad is Cassian's back story...ooooh he's a young lad that had tragedy happen to him,look quit with the emotional bait,it's beating a frickin' mummfied horse corpse and is annoying,just stop,same problem as Maul and the padwan. Now there is one problem I notice with both Maul and Andor which I suspect is a problem with all the Disney Star Wars TV shows...they look like Star Wars but they certainly do not feel like it,the old marvel comics of the 80's may have looked odd but the felt connected to the movies,these new TV shows don't,odd for Andor since Rogue One did feel connected to the original 1977 movie but both Andor and Maul...well they feel more like Blade Runner than Star Wars.

Jim Hofstede (@etasjim) reported@FLVoiceNews @GovRonDeSantis **** Pope, the man who founded Cypress Gardens was hyping up Disney coming to Florida because he thought new tourists would help his attraction. That did not work out well for him.
-
Mister Origin (@OriginComics98) reportedThere were plenty of problems with the Disney+ show. One of the biggest for me was giving Marc straight up divine powers. I know in the comics he does have some powers, but he’s mainly meant to be a crazier and more violent version of Batman.

boston (@0nlyBoston) reportedif you refer to omega as a "******** character" when she's very likely to be modeled after young boba fett's appearance in tcw, which would include his portrayal in aotc as well (where he's played by an actual child)—you're the issue, not disney. no normal person thinks like this

Kendall Hale (@kendallhaleart) reported@FiredUpCoug I work on the Disney Lorcana trading card game. I have a contracted job that ends in June and am available after that for fulltime work. I also have dozens of contacts on the card game that work in the Disney style - some of which live in Utah. HMU

Lou WILLXV (@YanVsFood) reportedI procrastinated switching to a SIM only deal for over a year now. I do it abd they’ve added free Disney+ for the duration of my contract. Only a few weeks ago my Disney+ auto renewed. I’m my own worst enemy at times.
