3:50 Didn't know Disney had a hand in this? Now I can blame Disney for it.
8:30 Disney never should've fired Johnny Depp without hearing the entire story. Johnny Depp was proven INNOCENT. Shame on you Disney.
True God Dammit Disney now we never will get Pirates Of The Caribbean 6

Yeah, folks. Star Wars really should have been at 1th place indeed
I saw coming the #1
No. Star Wars should not be 11. 'Fans' wouldn't be satisfied with anything coming out in the franchise. Doesn't matter who is in charge. You would all just whine and moan.
1st place actually…
They can't put all of Disney's failures on one list, they need to make more videos.
With Marvel taking the number 2 spot, after End Game, the MCU has gone downhill rapidly and they are still dragging its dead body into the cinemas to try and sequeze out a few more pennies!
How did Star Wars not even make the list? They torpedoed that franchise
Obviously!
Too obvious
Because watchmojo are Canadian and support Disney and what they stand for
Disney didn't ruin it,they butchered,massacred,violated it.
I’m just lucky that Star Wars wasn’t on the list. Although, I hate The Acolyte.
I hate it when Disney abuse movies by milking franchises to the ground by the name of profit and selfish reasons
Same
"Evil cannot create anything new. It can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made."
- JRR Tolkien (I think)
That sounds like something he’d say
You can say that again.
Facts
Leonardo are you accusing Disney of being evil? They did create new IP’s
Ayyy you're not crying about your ex today. Small victories.
Star Wars should be first place.
Agree
Yes bro
Look another fool
Yep.
Poor Star Wars.
No. Disney did not ruin Star Wars. Toxic fans did that
So, it's cool now to say that Iger sucked Walt's magic and soul out of the company? No creativity or originality, only acquisitions and broken franchises.
They will redeem themselves eventually , you republican manchild.
@@PeterStoneTheConductor-x9o When will that be, the ratings for the most resent SW show were so bad that they made Acoyle look good, yet Disney plus is failing to track on Nelson, they learned nothing, because they cannot acknowledge their own failures and with Epic Universe about to open, the parks are starring down the barrel of a gun due to the gross mismanagement of this once great company!
This dude does realize At World's End had a cliffhanger ending where Jack pulls out the charts showing him the Fountain of Youth, meaning On Stranger Tides was inevitable, right?
Yes
Just 10??? Try 50..
it would be easier to put down list of movies/franchises that disney DIDNT ruined ;) :P .
Can you write them down?
Mulan 1998: A completely ordinary young woman who overcomes her obstacles, and the people who doubted her.
Mulan 2020: Is a Mary Sue, with inexplicable super powers.
The moral of Mulan 2020: You can do anything, so long that you are born special.
Of course they ruined these IPs, it's what they do! Btw, shouldn't Star Wars be on this list? Everyone knows that Disney nerfed George Lucas' beloved space opera.
Disney did not need Star Wars. You guys have been complaining about Star Wars since the prequel trilogy while George Lucas was directing them
Disney has been mixed with Star wars but still lives, just don’t try to send death threat letters to them.
@@daniellewis4154And then the sequels came out which are infinity worse than the prequels.
I actually saw Indy 5 in theaters and loved it, even though I wish the franchise still ended with Indy 3.
Indy 5 was okay but disappointed, wish the movie for more attention
@mattiasolsson1523 That's your Opinion & Doesn't Reflect others, even Die Hard fans, like Myself.
@@robertrobillard4844
What am i suppose to say?
I’m glad they didn’t ruined the Power Rangers, when Disney acquired the rights to the show as part of their acquisition of Fox Family Network. Buying Power Rangers back from Disney is the worst decision Saban has ever made because the Disney seasons were legendary. He could’ve just work at Disney again, otherwise the 2017 cinematic reboot would’ve been a success that it wants to get.
Considering how much I was worried about Kingdom of The Planet of the Apes before the release, only to ended up loving that movie, let's hope Disney keep up the same path Caesar's franchise has been and never ruin it as well.
The ape movies are handled by the Fox part of Disney and iger is more intersted in trying to make Disney plus a thing, when its not a thing and will never be a thing until they can deal with all of the bad content that's being made for it and getting the production costs down!
The Lion King should be on the list.
The worse are Little Mermaid and Snow White by changing their race and swapping some characters’ genders completely.
10:21 That's a fair reason. I mean, not all the Star Wars universe is bad.
6:29 one could only imagine what a Martin Scorsese version of Inspector Gadget would be like.
They've announced half a dozen film series that have gone nowhere and as good as Andor was, hardly anyone watched it because Star Wars is so badly received these days. Disney had a juggernaut and now it's a mess. Absolutely it should be #1 and it's insane it's not on the list.
The reason why you think Star Wars is a mess is because Disney is terrified of upsetting the whiny, pathetic, self-entitled jerks who make up the Star Wars 'fandom.' Fandom. What a joke. George would be ashamed of all of you if he isn't already. All of you people just whine and complain about how a franchise INTENDED FOR CHILDREN isn't how you all want it to be.
Cry me a river. And after you are done, gather the rest of the pathetic 'fans' like you, and have that river made of tears carry you all off to an deserted island where none of the real fans have to hear the lot of you complain. We are ALL tired of it.
Star Wars should be first and I don’t care what you guys say, Dial of Destiny was much worse than Crystal Skull.
The MCU, Willow should have been in that list
You're right about Star Wars not belonging on this list.
Disney didn't ruin Star Wars.
Disney *killed* Star Wars.
The 1993 Mario Movie didn't look that bad, Nintendo made a mistake trusting Disney and 30 years later, Nintendo took the L To Disney
I Don't think Disney ruined Pirates of the Caribbean, it's still a masterpiece
I liked all the Pirates of he Carribean movies and Indiana Jones movies tbh. Johnny Depp is apparently supposed to be coming back not to mention he got an Oscar nod for his role as Jack Sparrow. For the Indiana Jones franchise I liked the last movie because it was his send off and Harrison Ford has said he was glad he made it.
The Lone Ranger movie I actually did like. I wouldn't mind a redo movie sequel or even a reboot
Man, Disney is turning into the EA Games of movie studios.
Power Rangers (1993-2023) Now After Disney bought Saban Entertainment In 2001 things wasn't that bad seasons Like Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder, SPD, Mystic Force, Operation Overdrive*, Jungle Fury and RPM were Decent to Downright Awesome the only outliar was Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (2010) as It was just MMPR (1993-1996) edited like Adam West Batman (1966-1968) but Disney just did not want this TV Show In their library and maybe the Saban Entertainment Library and after buying Marvel In 2009 they got their Male Targeted IPs to counterbalance the Female Centric brands like Tinker Bell (2008-2015), Hannah Montana, High School Musical and Wizards Of Waverly Place and sold Power Rangers and PR Adjacent IP's back to Haim Saban In 2010 leading to the heavily Reviled yet Franchise revitalizing Neo Saban Era that gave the Disney Seasons recognition and made them favorites to many Power Rangers Fans hell love RPM, SPD, Jungle Fury and Operation Overdrive controversial opinion I know
Power Rangers did it dirty by not making some crossovers like Mystic Force, Jungle Fury, and RPM.
I never liked Disney's Power Rangers because I thought the Disney Era Power Rangers was too cartoonish and campy in the 2000s. I grew up with the Saban-era Power Rangers in the 90s and that will always remain true to my nostalgic heart.
Why bother making this list if you’re not even gonna put Star Wars on it. Disney put that franchise in the ground
As Milo Thatch says it best, “that is what this is all about, right? Money”
There should a list of franchises that Disney bought out to destroy. These were promised to be continued but never got any development and just left on the shelf, like Super Ted. No need to fear the competition if you buy it and let it rot.
Topic Suggestion - Best Movie Characters from each year of 21st century. Include fictional characters only and not characters based on real life people. Make a separate list for animated characters.
And since the mid 2010s everything Disney touch is ruined. Let it be beloved animated Disney classic or other property they bought out or got the rights to. "Modern" Disney lacks the charm and understanding why people love the originals in the first place.
For me, the series that disney ruined that I am most angry about is the chronicles of pydan which is a 5 book series? No one knows this, though. Because their stand anlone movie was the black cauldron, which was the second book in the series.
The horn king wasn't even the villain in that book he was the villian in the first book, The Book of Three
"Somehow, GOOD Star Wars HASN'T come back!?!"
What about Andor and the Mandalorian?
@mattiasolsson1523 Andor, yes. Mandalorian fell off at season 3.
Oh, man. I would love to see Martin Scorsese to direct Inspector Gadget.
Star wars and Marvel and transformers not making the lists is wild
Star Wars toooootally wasn't ruined...😏
All of Disney classics they made into live action should take the entire cake
The Lion King.
One of Disney's most successful, most popular franchises to this day. Also notable for having one of the most critically and commercially successful straight-to-video sequels.
And what did they do to follow that up?
The Lion King 1&1/2, a movie whose only ambition was to take a giant crap all over the original.
The Lion Guard, which... Well, it did get better, but everyone from the youngest to most nostalgic viewers had trouble getting passed the farting contest (yes, they actually did that).
And of course, a 2019 shot-for-shot "live action" remake, and its Mufasa prequel that blew up the established canon that The Lion Guard had taken such painstaking care to work around while leaving intact.
To be honest, what the hell happened to Disney? Why did it become such a greedy company?
2:11 This Doug theme tune still can't getting out of my head of this memorable show...
*But Don't Tell Nostalgia Critic about on what I said, Folks*
Something tells me that Disney needs a whole lot of reforms ASAP.
What about "The Muppets" franchise? There hasn't been a new Muppet movie released ever since Muppets Most Wanted. That was over a decade ago. Now, their just doing average streaming shows and guest appearances.
With a title like "10 Beloved Franchises Disney RUINED", ipso facto Star Wars should be on this list.
12:43 God, i hope they do craft a live-action remake....
Stuff they have ruined ✅
Stuff they will ruin: see upcoming projects
At least Star Wars didn’t make the list so that says something
Because of Andor and the Mandalorian, these two were loved.
@@mattiasolsson1523 Mandalorian fell off at season 3
@@Macintosh1001
But as a tv-series as a whole, one of the best.
The Black Cauldron scared the shit out of me when I was a kid
I read Disney was working on a King Kong series. I want to be optimistic about it, but I don’t think it’s gonna stand a chance against Legendary’s Monsterverse iteration of the character.
I know Star Wars should’ve been on the list, but I wonder if Marvel should be considered too.
MCU to be precise.
The Chronicles of Prydain should be replaced with Star Wars. That might be a bad adaptation, but it was a great movie and an hidden gem from a Disney that is no more.
How the hell is Star Wars not on this list but SUPER MARIO BROS is? That movie shouldn’t even be here considering it was Disney in distribution only. Honestly I’d be better off not knowing it was distributed by Disney.
Disney absolutely destroyed Star Wars. Not putting it on this list is a HUGE oversight Watchmojo.
I hope Disney does make better adaptations of both The Chronicles of Prydain and Artemis Fowl someday.
Idea for the future: top 10 cartoon franchises that got worse after changing studios. Example: Captain Planet was great in DiC’s first three seasons but went south after Hanna-Barbera took over from the fourth season.
Does anyone seem surprise or curious as to whether or not The Muppets should/shouldn't be included on this list?
COME ON!!! How is Star Wars not in this list ? Acolyte, Kenobi, the entire sequel trilogy. One Andor doesnt redeem the vandalism that they inflicted on Star Wars!
Agreed
Every live action Disney remake should be on this list. That's Disney ruining Disney.
Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Willow... it's all dead thanks to the house of mouse.
Disney has some redeem quality, now it seems no one has faith on Disney at that really hurt.
@@olleselin It doesn't mean they are faithful to the source material either. I'm all for light changes to fit in with a more modern day audience, but sometimes Disney doesn't seem to get what the audience really needs.
Pirates became the Jack Sparrow show after his surprise hit withe the first.
10:29 Andor was good until they started trying to queer bait the audience
Oh god I'd had no idea the 1993 super mario bros movie was Disney but who would notice right the film's crap on crack.
Bloody Disney! You doomed Pirates of the Caribbean! Now you firm yours sentences!
And it's a wonder that I look back at the Nick-era Doug Days more fondly. And no Billy West in Doug's Disney era? Hard pass. And seriously, WTF, Disney?
They ruined Lion King by revealing Mufasa and Scar ARE NOT BROTHERS!!!😤😠😡
Actually they are adoptive brothers so yes that still counts
Blood brothers I mean
Did anyone belive they are brothers? Chill out and stop acting like a loser
@@mattiasolsson1523Of course why would anyone believe that two characters calling each other “brother” actually means they’re brothers?
@@hpfan2007
Mufasa has brighter fur and red brown mane while Scar is more darker and not closer to Mufasa.
I'm surprised you didn't even put Marvel on this list....
Star Wars 🤝Marvel: Safe from being ruined by Disney
Do A Warners Bros and Paramount Pictures Versions
For Warner Bros, that's definitely DC.
As for Paramount, it's probably Transformers.
What franchises has both Warner Bros and Paramount Pictures ruined?
Disney was once a company that people loved now when I think of them I just as company that ruins good franchises
Forgot the Star Wars franchise!
Pirates of the Caribbean should have been a one off movie.
ARTEMIS FOWL
I wouldn't have put the pirates of the carribean franchise on here. To me, I love all of the films that came out. As for Indiana Jones, to me, they only had 1 flop the crystal skull one. The rest were brilliant. Including the last one.
I read the Artemis Fowl book and the Black Cauldron book. To be honest, they weren't great.
What did you think about the Artemis fowl movie?
can you do 10 beloved franchises warner bros ruined?
How the hell is star wars not here?? It's one of the most obvious choice
you also forgot to mention how the animation in mulan 2 was completely subpar. mulan kinda feels like a one and done movie.
is it possible to mention toy story, frozen, wreck it ralph, or lion king among the contenders?
Disney really fucked up Indiana Jones. KOTCS was great.
Some others include The Muppets, Underdog, Snow White (in a couple of months), Star Wars, and nearly every single classic animated film.
Everything Disney touches now is ruined. I do not understand how Star Wars and MCU are not tied for number 1
What does it takes for you all to stop give crap about Disney and go back to the normal life?
Where's Star Wars and the MCU post-Endgame?
they forgot Star Wars and the Marvels.
I don't think the Chronicles of prydain period should be on the list because the movie, had parts cut off due to a certain executive.
Disney learned nothing from the _Mulan_ remake.
Disney never watch their own movies.
I don’t think that they did that intentionally, did they? 🤔
To save Mulan use the original ID for Mulan two
10 "Your shorter than I except"
Megan #2 due out.
Wait till we get Megan 6 the return.
Arrggghhhh!. 😮😮😮😮
The one that got me the most is inspector gadget. It was the 2nd movie not the first.. the first one was ok not that bad but for my personal opinion they could have chosen a younger actress for his niece penny gadget since she was and looked like she was younger than 12 years of age and they chose a girl who was 12 years old or in her teens.The second one was stupider and made inspector gadget more stupider by comparison..
Doctor Who. They killed Doctor Who. And for that I will never ever watch any Disney shit again 🤬
Pirates Of The Caribbean Still Deserve A Chance & The Same The Live Action Version Of Disney Animated Movies But Is Just My Opinion!
You forgot Star Wars and the MCU.
The disrespect to my queen Mulan 😭
I watched Mulan 2 all the time as a kid. So I kinda love it, if only for the pure nostalgia
Mulan only had 2 movies
Marvel should be number 1
The dog's name is Brain not Brian.
Disney is ruining everything these days
Percy Jackson?
Hello?
Disney plunged these franchises into the ground 😢
