Imagine being someone with millions of dollars who can sue Disney so that others with far less money dont get screwed over by Disney in the future

Disney definitely should have just paid them and not been dicks. But unfortunately it looks like their new CEO is going to run the company into the ground

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

Movie theaters should not be open during a pandemic and it's perfectly fine to release on a streaming service.

Scarjo cause she wanted more money from what she could have gotten if Black Widow was only released in theaters. People trying to spin it into an equal pay argument when she's really just butt hurt it went to streaming services while in theaters.

I'm glad they made a Black Widow movie.

I'm sorry it came out too late.

I'm sorry that ScarJo got shafted.

She's in the right here and has nothing to lose.

Streaming is pay to rent, tickets are one per person. 6 people rent Black Widow for $30 total or 6 people pay $17 each for a ticket for $102.

I agree with your point about theaters, but there is no way they can make the same from streaming rental. Disney is worth how much? This should have not been an issue and she should get paid as initially contracted.

Yeah I get the business side of things, but we're also in the middle of a pandemic so streaming is the best option for everyone's safety so she should get over herself.

Attacking my sig and not the crux of my post is a sign that you have no leg to stand on. What do you get out of licking Disney's boots, TC?

I get nothing. What do you get out of this topic? What did you add to the topic besides your typical toxicity?

How DARE someone look out for their value instead of kneeling to the Great Megacorp

You can say that ScarJo's financial concerns are frivolous, but it's pretty silly to feel the urge to run to Disney's defense.

Not even meaning to defend Disney. Just saying people shouldn't care what happens to millionaires when they're arguing over millions.

I feel like very few people are defending anyone in this topic and both sides are just accusing one another of defending ScarJo/Disney when theyre just attacking the opposite side.

TC, nobody should care about anything celebrities do outside their specific craft (aside from ridiculous situations like the Roseanne thing), but sadly we, as a country, have decided to deify them, so shit like this ends up somehow mattering. *shrugs*
