Dug from Up gets a show.. Lightning and Mater from Cars get a show... Buzzy Lightyear origin story... Enchanted, Turner and Hooch, Mighty Ducks, Sister Act, Cheaper by the Dozen, Ice Age, Night at the Museum, Lion King, Little Mermaid, Pinocchio, Peter Pan, Chip and Dale, Hocus Pocus... all getting sequels, spinoffs, or remakes of some kind. Embarrassing.

Plus like ten new Star Wars shows/movies and Marvel shows/movies. The announcement video that Patty Jenkins made for her movie was one of the most shameless, cynical things I've ever seen.

What happened to Touchstone? Or, like, people not wanting nostalgic bullshit and wanting to find something new to enjoy? I see people my age or older getting excited about all this stuff. What is wrong with people?

Things I like are being suffocated by things I don't like. Going to allow myself to resent anyone that feeds into this bullshit.

You can turn a profit on a small movie. Although I suppose a company would rather have a $400m profit than a $100m one.

Worth considering throwing a bone to people who don't have adolescent brains though.

Not being able to take criticism is another interesting thing about Disney's rapid fandom.

Why? You have infinite money. You can pay the best filmmakers on the planet to make anything you or they want to. Why are you picking a movie series that hasn't had a celebrated movie in 35 years?

What we really need is a modern version of United Artists. Get a few of the biggest names in hollywood to pool together their money to create a new studio for artists by artists. It'll get bought/corrupted eventually, but for a while it would have the freedom to make good movies however they want.

possibly because that's a much narrower topic and doesn't encompass the full scope of the issues with what Disney is doing

but also "what happened to touchstone?" is a question with a very simple answer:

The problem is clearly with you. Lighten fuck up and be happy for the diversity here. I agree there's probably too much announced and that nowhere near all of it is going to be great, but these franchises and stories resonate with people.

I think this assumption that something has less worth because it isn't new or different is a trash mindset.

But yeah, Disney owning basically everything in the movie industry sucks. Maybe try being more of a tv guy

Reading the list of shit in the OP again and its like reading it for the first time. Its such an amazing cavalcade of what-the-fuck that my brain glazes over and I stop actually processing the words before I finish, or I forget what I had already read.

Like, its one thing to make an animated series based off of a recent billion dollar movie that people like and is popular with children. That's understandable, I'd want to make that. But. What the fuck

the fuck

Turner and Hooch reboot

I need to fucking wash my brain out with a bad horror movie. Satan's Slave, from 1976, here I come.

The rogue squadron movie is directed by Patty Jenkins will most likely be female oriented. For someone that seems to be far left you seem to be fake about it and only give a fuck about seeing yourself represented and the things you want. You you you is all we ever hear you bitching about. Grow the fuck up and accept the things you enjoy and want most are never going to be in mainstream demand. The world does not revolve around you, no matter how many Internet groups you make to burrow into your own limited tunnel vision safe space
