Disney has had massive box office flops and poor critical reviews for movies such as The Marvels and Wish recently, but the cherry on top was Elon Musk and Disney CEO Bob Iger giving Dealbook interviews. With Elon Musk calling out Bob Iger by his name and even talking about how many people claim to be doing while, while actually doing evil. These interviews were great. Bob Iger admits some problems but seems to totally miss the point. Alongside obfuscating the actual truth behind a wall of corporate speak. The interesting part comes when you contrast his opinions here against his investor SEC filings. Where Disney admit the real reason why they are failing. They are no longer aligned with their audience. And this can't be solved, with their current staff. Is it too late for Disney? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
Thor isn’t even exclusively a property of Marvel or Hollyweird, we can make our own fan fictions infinitely more inspired than the activist shills and iconoclastic morons Hollyweird and Dismay (Disney) insist on ‘employing’. Base it on a love for Norse culture, Traditions, stories, history and mythologies, actually pay tribute to the history of not just the People of Europe, but use that mythology to branch into others, and connect the multiverse through different deities, messengers and gods dreaming of worlds, mortals and gods. It could be a beautiful story of how we are all human, united, even if our spiritual languages were shattered, we all tell similar stories and tales. To try and teach, convey and pass on meaningful lessons, morals, scruples, standards and values to future generations. Yeah, the Dismay (Disney) Rotten Kingdom doesn’t want those types of stories, They’d rather push animosity and corporate approved h@tred.
You're not the only one. It would explain the absurd amounts of money spent on Disney advertising. Their last resort is to push the name of the company in our faces. So we don't completely forget they still exist lmao
Same. Last Disney content I watched was End Game, and even that was cause I was already invested in the MCU and wanted closure. When you see Disney, you know exactly what you're gonna get... Soul was pretty good though, I liked that movie. Oddly enough, they didn't market it at all, nobody watched it, and they just brushed it under the carpet to be hidden forever.
My first glimpse of the evil of Disney was their purchase of The Muppets from the estate of Jim Henson, who adamantly refused to sell it to Disney while he was alive. Disney is just a corporation now. No soul.
It's crazy how much I hate Disney nowadays. I'm so sick of everything that they're doing with that company and then the CEO wants to put the blame on everyone else but himself
Cult members often state their weird opinions as facts. Other cult members mindlessly agree, and anyone who doesn’t agree is dismissed without listening. Y’all goofy
Woke activists posing as 'writers' are always in the radical-left marxist camp and their number one goal is to destroy the stable family unit. So ofcourse Disney won't be making family entertainment as long as the bluehaired snowflakes are still there. The fastest way to get rid of them is to no pay anymore for Disney movies.
Rachel Ziegler is the personification of a paper cut. She can be severe to mildly annoying, and then you completely forget about her for the rest of your life until it appears again. And then the cycle repeats.
I can write the premise for nearly every Disney cartoon kids movie. Dad is an idiot, mom has rules, the kid breaks the rules and by breaking the rules solves a major problem, then in the end of the movie the parents are apologizing to the kid for having dumb rules and thanking the kid for solving the problem. Why would any parent choose to groom their kids with that kind of garbage?
There's an interesting trend in all businesses. They're usually started by a charismatic who can get people on-board with his ideas and plans for the future. But eventually the charismatic dies or leaves. And the business remains. And then it either falls apart, freezes into a bureaucracy trying to carry out the charismatic's ideas after he's gone, but with none of the inspiration or leadership ability, or some new charismatic is found who more often than not leads the business in a completely new direction. I think Iger was the last. He had the full faith and confidence of the board and investors (and still does for many of them and the media), but none of them understood that he never intended to carry out Walt Disney's vision, but his own. He wasn't going to reinvigorate classic Disney, but make Nu Disney. And Nu Disney is a genderless utopia where sex convicts can play with other peoples' children. A very different kind of place than Classic Disney.
That’s exactly what it is, it’s a proxy company for The World Economic Forum as their propaganda wing, I’m not exaggerating, that’s literally exactly what it is, a Marxist propaganda company for Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink, Soros etc
The worst part of all of this, is that the core problem is so obvious but the company chooses to be oblivious and push what they want. I’ll be shocked if they question theirselves in the future on why they are failing.
@@2st_duallistPlaying devil’s advocate; he has been upfront, as far as I know, about it. Disney is being deceptive about their agendas and backstabbing each other along the way while chastising those that keep their lights on
Algorithm of cultural demolition 1. pump up EVERY classical and pop culture with crap and evil 2. invert morality on cultural mythologies 3. make common people HATE their heroes and morals 4. ERASE the old materials without a trace, prosecute the possession of them 5. pretend that the reversed morality evil material was the ORIGINAL culture all the time
What they thought actually in theory was if they can get all the girls as well to see their product, their profit will double as well. They were banking that existing fans wont leave the franchise. That was the sole reason for hiring nobodies as actors, directors and writers in later phase. To increase profit and nothing else
Where did he get really? Would you want to be like him?? (rhetorical) *Integrity* makes ppl wealthy in a Meritocracy, but sometimes subversions or family/friendly/invested ties put wrong person in power. LOOK where that got them! Why free markets tend to work, we have no direct say when government is running things. WE have the power if we choose to use it, not always easy.
I like how the interviewer sounded so incredulous " they're going to boycott DISNEY?" Boycotts don't need people picketing physical locations or even announcing it, people just aren't watching their trash. People are not pouring into the parks anymore. It amounts to the same thing.
Wednesday of this last week, around the time this happened, 'Marvels' was averaging $109 per theater per day. That is a boycott. And if it ISN'T then it is apathy with the same result as a boycott.
Don't kid yourself "Aug--2023 Disney Parks, Experiences and Products revenues for the quarter increased 13% to $8.3 billion, and segment operating income increased 11% to $2.4 billion." "The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) today reported earnings for its third quarter and nine months ended July 1, 2023. Revenues for the quarter and nine months grew 4% and 8%, respectively. "
@@marhawkman303 Revenue increased 13% to $8.3 billion, while half-empty? Boy, they really do have magic. Dude, no one cares about your billionaire with a screw loose. He lost 25 billion on twitter and thinks he holds all the cards.
@@ejtattersall156 They raised prices. They are losing customers right and left. Even if they were still earning film money they would still be in trouble because of the general word of mouth being so bad, but that's on top of box office disasters
I don’t believe Disney is capable of being who they were as they have got rid of everyone who had the traditional Disney mindset and replaced them (and in tern their culture) with too many woke people who genuinely believe that it’s their role to mold the minds of our children towards their dangerous political and social beliefs). Respect to Elon for standing up to their constant threats, I only wish it wasn’t going to hurt companies that had the integrity to stand up and say enough, as he did. That advertising machine may suddenly feel threatened and band together (even if they do not have aligned views with the Disney’s of our world) just to assure their dominance and control on the companies and agencies that rely on their support, and in turn those weaker companies that “depend on” or are indirectly manipulated by their sponsors, may feel they have to now ostracize and distance themselves from The Elons (Companies that say enough, you do not make our policies or control our core beliefs anymore), just so that they don’t loose their financial crutch.
It's mad how quick this has all went downhill, collapsing into chaos. The Iger's & his cohorts are insane for blaming the fans for their demise, & all because we are not paying to watch horrible movies, instead of looking at themselves. I'm not sure this can be fixed.
I used to be the biggest Disney fan. Now I can’t stand them. If you told me in 2013 “ten years from now you won’t even go see the new animated Disney musical” I wouldn’t have believed it.
was watching the Jungle Book with a grand child and were whooping it up singing along with the songs (absolutely love King Louie) Have to admit that during a quiter lull I started to tear up as a contemplated this Disney animated film vs what Disney is today - how woefully far our civilization has been degraded with degeneracy and that companies like Disney are at the vánguard of enginnering it on purpose
@@TheSulross And _The Jungle Book_ is not even regarded as a good Disney animated outing. Not saying it's a bad film, but for their animated work pre-2000? Yeah, it's on the lower half.
@@boobah5643The animation might not be their greatest but the story and music make it a great event for kids and that to me is more important than the best animation.
which going to Jeffrey Epstein's island means they're profoundly evil - and is why Disney is so all embracing of a groomer agenda with their degeneracy aimed at children as their prey
Given how much money Iger is paid, I can see why he says he's successful regardless of how much money the company is losing. If I was a soulless corporate ceo raking in seven figures a year I'd be pretty satisfied with myself too.
The problem is that after earning so much money it has become meaningless to him. That's why he came back after the pandemic was over, because money isn't the goal. Power and legacy is. Unfortunately for Iger his arrogance is what is tarnishing that legacy.
@@ardendragoonHe's not a business man. Musk is. Trump is. Business men get uncomfortable watching a company burn money due to graft or inefficency. But a lot of modern CEOs are college educated leftists. They can't run companies.
The last year Bob Iger will be as Disney CEO is the year, when Disney goes bankrupt. Im not sure will he then pay somewhat from his own wallet for Disneys bankrupcy. Its his own fault for going political with his company, instead of making quality producys the customers ask for, that will eventually cause Disneys bankrupcy.
I went to watch Top Gun Maverick in theaters twice. First time on the standard showing and rewatched a week later in IMAX. It just takes a good movie for people to go into movie theaters and spend money. Disney just has been putting out dumpsters of rubbish
Yes sociopath. Ceo. Hand in hand. But he is also walking into a shit storm that was created in his absence. He's already made leaps and bounds to backtrack it with cancelations,reshoots, and admitting that they've lost sight of their main priority. He's not the only one making decisions. It's not a dictatorship.
What you have to understand is this: As of this moment, Disney will not stray from THE MESSAGE regardless of loss because they are not allowed to stray from it. Their institutional shareholders, the large investment firms, have a stranglehold on the entertainment business especially Disney because of its reach to children. This is what Klaus Schwab’s stakeholder capitalism is all about. It’s about them deciding which values we should embrace and cramming them down our throats. This is one major aspect of the Great Reset
Dude STFU it's just capitalists controlling culture as well as the economy. As far as "resets" go the economy is always reset constantly because when stocks lose value working class people are fired and stocks can be gathered up at a low price by companies and the ruling class. The economy has slumps as part of its design literally all the time. Conservatives take the bait all the time and act like this is a one time thing when if you just read Karl Marx you'd see it's a frequent part of capitalism destroying our lives.
Precisely, they are a proxy company for the World Economic Forum, they are literally a propaganda machine for Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink, Soros etc., they are no longer a company whose mission is profit for shareholders and providing entertainment for people, I just wonder how long they can continue considering various finance laws, I think its actually against the law to intentionally lose money
@@Rovr0 They have a say because, ostensibly, at least, the Chinese market is the largest on the planet, so releasing films there is worth a lot of money. Vague rules for who gets to release what films keeps companies guessing, to the point that they pay a CCP apparatchik to censor the film at all stages of production to get a better chance at a Chinese release. And that quickly becomes censorship of the corporation's entire output, because offensive film _B_ can (and has) led to banning films _A_ through _Z_ from Chinese release.
Iger couldn't change now if he wanted to (he doesn't), as they are now too financially weak to withstand the withdrawal of the ESG funds . They're essentially in the same trap Bud Light stepped in. They've chosen sides in a culture war against the bulk of their (former) customers, and set their multi-billion dollar brand on fire. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Leftism is all about trying to chant one's own solipsistic fantasies into reality, and believing they can get their antithetical to objective truth ideologies to work if only they have enough power to force everyone in the world to believe in them, too. So of course they're not going to confess and repent of their sins; they believe in power to truth (the belief that they can make their lies become truth with enough power), so admitting they're wrong undermines their entire dogma, and they're so inculcated by their beliefs that they've based their very identities on them, so they view being proven wrong with the existential dread of identity death.
Well Elon grasps how to be successful when running a corporate business, Bob is just an idiot who most likely failed business 101 and spent time doodling while eating the crayons. Willing to bet I would be more suited to run Disney then Bob and I'm just some random guy in the comments who knows nothing about running a company.
Honestly he came off as an idiot to me. He NEEDS advertisers to reduce the amount of cash X looses per year, and he is scaring them off or driving them away. A good business decision for Musk would be to shut his mouth but he can never do that.
lmao Elon worshipers will tell themselves anything. Iger and Musk are both complete fucking clowns. Twitter has hemorrhaged billions and Musk simps are like "durr he's such a boss!" Fkn hilarious
@silvercrescent1264 So what you’re saying is, he should be a good little boy and do exactly what Disney tell him to do, because ‘money’? Does your wife’s lover agree!? Does disneys constant haemorrhaging of money and customers not lead you to believe Elon may be doing this for other reasons than peak profit??!? Maybe he actually cares about the society he lives in? You’re talking about a man with an insane amount of money, who purchased the most hatefully divisive piece of sh!t in the entirety of western media, and fired every divisive, pro-censorship clown in the circus. IF the company fails, he has set it up so the world knows it is going under because he REFUSED to be blackmailed. You can’t buy that level of integrity. Financially he will be just fine regardless. But he never bent over to what he sees as the giant destroying the future of his own society.
Bob Iger always carries himself like a cult leader. Thanks for making things clearer for why Disney sucks, Disparu. Pretty much why I’m a fan of every video you produce by proving why “entertainment” today is horrible in Hollywoke.
Just got back from watching Godzilla minus one. Best movie I’ve seen since endgame and it didn’t need a a 10 year build up. Also, it was made with a 15 million dollar budget. It looked amazing btw. So wtf is Disney doing with all that money from those high budget movies and shows???
He says it’s “hard when something you love and have put your heart into so much is struggling.” Yea, Bob… imagine how us Disney fans feel. Or the Star Wars fans that have to watch our heroes be emasculated. Or Indiana Jones be treated like a bigot misogynist… It’s gross…
*Iger is like an alcoholic attending an AA meeting who can't even acknowledge the first step of a 12-step program. But instead of refusing to admit he's an alcoholic, Iger can't admit he's of the cultural-political left. Or: "I'm not of the left, I'm a progressive!" Or: "I'm not a leftist, I'm a liberal!" Or: "I'm not a progressive, I'm woke!" Or: "I'm not woke, I just have good intentions!" BTW, those intentions are what the road to hell is paved with. And there's nothing kind, caring or compassionate about that road either.*
he's on the govt dole... cia messaging essentially evil gender neutering an entire generation to sell medical services 4 life. pursuing fantasy is costly.
All of this BS is coming from the top from firms like Blackrock and Vangaurd to try and whitewash their criminal conduct and the fact they are the most evil corrupt companies on Earth. It's the goal of all identity politics starting with the kings of fake woke identity politics, the Israel lobby. They pioneered this by using fake claims of "antisemitism" to shut down all valid criticism and debate over their blatant war crimes. That is where the modern identity politics scam was started and perfected and all the shit libs who call anyone they can't win an argument against an "ist or a phobe" as well as 99% of Congress are owned and controlled by them.
I disagree. Leftists THINK they're being compassionate... but it's the compassion of small children. They see problems in a simple-minded way and see solutions in a simple-minded way. It's why their spokespeople are so often children, and why most adults do eventually mature enough to realize that it's all nonsense and the world doesn't work the way Leftists pretend it does. If you want to try and convert a Leftist (it may take years) you have to go where they live and agree that they are seeing problems. And, actually, they probably are. And then you have to start walking through solutions and their consequences so they can see that none of their answers can function. It's not even particularly hard. Once they admit that they think people can't be trusted, they have to grant that their leaders aren't supermen and can't be trusted either. Once they admit that there can never be an infinite amount of everything desirable, they have to grant that some people will get things and some people will not. There aren't any other choices. Usually at this point they say to me, "Well we have to do something!" And I ask them to let me know when they know something that's actually better. I don't hold my breath waiting.
Everyone knows it is Iger's and not Chapick's fault. That Iger is the one that set Disney's course before he left in 2020. These guys really do think the public is stupid. And if you think about it, Disney's doesn't want to appeal to the audience they've lost. If they did, they would continue to advertise on X.
They thought simply making products with the names the fans loved meant they make money. Then they made terrible products and blame us for not swallowing sludge.
Nope they were one step further. They thought if they seem to further a message, more public apart from their core base will see their product irrespective of quality.
The funny thing is that a message can be put in a show without being preachy. Star Trek did it in the past. I disagree with the politics in Star Trek from the 90s - 2000s. But they made good entertainment, so I didn't care. Now they just say forget stories, just put in the message 🙄 and act like it's they same as the old stuff.
"What we should care about is the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. And what I see all over the place, I see people who only care about *looking good but DOING evil.* " I will not say he is by no means clear of this sin, but it is probably the first time someone nailed out the biggest problem plaguing the western society.
If writers and actors were paid like they were in the really old days... you know, where they got a percentage of the profit that the production made, they'd be inclined to make good entertainment. But, when you have people who get paid millions up front , whether or not their product sells or is well received, what is their motivation to do well?
It seems like he knew Disney was imploding so he decided to step down and name a successor that he knew would continue all of his projects and continue that path. Then once the implosion started he’d come back in to “save the day”. His plan was doomed because it was too late to save. He wanted to craft an “I’m your savior” moment but it ended up that people realized, no Bobby your the cause.
You are living in a bubble. "Aug--2023 Disney Parks, Experiences and Products revenues for the quarter increased 13% to $8.3 billion, and segment operating income increased 11% to $2.4 billion." "The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) today reported earnings for its third quarter and nine months ended July 1, 2023. Revenues for the quarter and nine months grew 4% and 8%, respectively. " Other than his fanboys, no one cares about Elon. He's just another billionaire kook.
@@bubsmp You want the world to choose between the orange moron and the rainbow morons. You want us to pick a team and make Elon a hero. He's an idiot who doesn't know what business he is in. I'm not going to worship an idiot.
So when is he gonna mention that the new hunger games movie has been a success now? Everyone said that the ballad of songbirds and snakes would never succeed but they’re now making a profit. The movie is proving so many people wrong and I love to see it.
I still recall that leaked Disney meeting video, where one woman, an executive member of the Disney Production Staff, was describing her personal household. She wants to project that lifestyle she has in her home with her children to the public, as if the public will follow her example. All her example is, her home neighbors tell their children not to befriend her children and to never enter her home. That is a very strange home lifestyle that she was describing. That is the lifestyle that she assumes and demands to project onto the public. This is what is hired at Disney. She is an example of the Crux of the problem at Disney. Bob Iger, and several BOD members at Disney Corp, needs to be let go, forth with.
Many fans like myself wanted to support Disney. We ended up even feeling slight guilt on "attacking" the Mouse. But to be truthful, and transparent even, we did nothing wrong or even disloyal. Disney dropped the ball. Not us.
Remember when it seemed like a _good_ thing that Disney had purchased Lucas Films, because Lucas himself didn't seem interested in doing more _Star Wars_ and Disney would?
Free market is tossing it's weight around, destroy Meritocracy and self destruct, can't be any other way. Likely be reborn better and much smaller, lol.
@@clogs4956 I am both an ex-Star Wars and ex-Star Trek fan. I have a lot of empathy for ex-Dr.Who and ex-Marvel and ex-DC fans. I feel like we have a lot in common.
Thank you for some extra context around that interview, A lot of the things Elon said were very well put. Like the bit about people desire the appearance of being good, while doing evil.
I was 2 years old when my grandmother took me to the Anaheim grand opening of Disneyland. To say I was a fan is an understatement. I have celebrated every year at Disneyland. However I haven’t, nor will I ever , step foot anywhere near this company again. They have become everything I hate about the direction our country is going.
Look north to see what will happen to the USA if you guys get another “placed” (not voted for) demondcrats in the next election. It’s bad in Canada real bad
Their incomes and careers depend on their not seeing. Pay me 800k plus options to tell people the moon is made of cheese and I'm all in on that tasty lunar goodness.
Bob Chapek wasn't a "mistake" he was a "fall guy". He was NEVER in charge, so all the failures on his watch were started on Iger's watch and Iger was in charge the whole time from behind a curtain while Chapek was "CEO".
A restaurant owner sits the chef down and says, "The restaurant is failing. The chief complaint is poor food quality. What do you think we should do about it?" The chef replies, "Larger portion sizes?"
I’m a woman and the whole girl boss and Mary sue pisses me off. They need to stop, it is not feminism. I want Disney to stop remaking the great original movies that I watched as a child and still watch with my son and nieces. Well my son doesn’t watch the princess movies lol. Give us entertainment not their agenda they keep pushing. Also Disney needs to stop with the gender ideology and politics.
it is feminism feminism originated from marxism the whole "equality and girl power" thing is a scam, feminism is one big lie fed to women and to control them and their choices and world view
I can’t believe Iger said he tried to distance himself, like that excuses him from responsibility for the failures! He’s admitting he’s a weasel that doesn’t take responsibility when things go badly. He came back to fix things and it’s all worse than ever. I’m amazed he had the balls to be interviewed at all. He looks like such a fool.
He hand-picked Chapek and NEVER LEFT HIS OFFICE. He was sitting right there the whole time. Not to mention that he green-lit most of the bombs that occurred on Chapek's shift YEARS before Chapek was even mentioned. It's amazing that anyone falls for Iger's nonsense.
Iger came back to 'fix' the stuff that he himself broke and also that sweet 8 figure paycheck. The paycheck is important, as Bob got rug pulled when FTX went arse-over-tit and all his NFT's tanked.
Be thankful it's private enterprise existing only by our choices. Why failure as an option is crucial for accountability, for health and prosperity. Governments never in our direct control.
I think this is a huge positive as it's coming to light that the majority of people are not woke and maybe it requires a few martyrs to show the people in power this.
@rileyp7Wokeness works best when you are a billionaire or a CEO. You can relax on your mega-yacht in between interviews about how regular people need to cut back on driving their 10 year old pickup trucks to save the world from the climate.
@matthewmosier8439 Seems to me like wokeness works best when you are an inner city spoiled child, who scored a job in a big company due to ESG scores meaning your average grades, poor attitude, and general all round underachievement, walk you directly into a job you don’t deserve.
No one cares about Elon. Most people don't care about the whole Trumpy vs. woke culture war. To me, it's an idiot on the left and an idiot on the right. I refuse to believe those are my only choices.

When the costs has gone up and the quality of the output went down it's probably corruption. What we see here is that more diversity leads to more corruption. The same happened in South Africa.
All you need to destroy a company or civilization is *to destroy Meritocracy.* Employment based on anything but aptitude, integrity, productivity... is catastrophically immoral.
@tcdrx Who would have thought that allowing millions of uneducated, unskilled, culturally/religiously diverse minorities to infiltrate your country, would have both immediate and long term negative impacts on the quality of life of your citizens?
As a Norwegian, I don’t even get how they’re allowed to use Thor and the cult of Odin as part of their franchise and as part of “marvel” when it’s part of my heritage and cultural identity. Like, that’s the equivalent of having Jesus or Muhammad as part of the avengers
When a CEO starts the interview with, "I've tried really hard to distance myself from...." that running shoes have already been put on. The Disney execs all sound like that old song..."It wasn't me."
Spent billions and billions to aquire Marvel, a property with thousands of successful well developed interconnected stories already written, then proceeded to flip up the lid, dump all of those stories in the bin, and start from scratch. Make it make sense.
Disney knows what the audience wants because it consistently gives them the exact opposite - you need to know where true north is in order to keep going south. Best analogy ever.
I truly do not think the Disney company can be saved in it's current form. Crash, burn, attempt the pheonix thing; I don't even want to wish them luck. "THEY KILLED DISNEY! YOU BASTARDS!" 🤷
You are right on! Thank you. Disney is dead to me. Iger and Disney are fulfilling the saying, "The operation was a success, but the patient died!" Investors. If you care about your ROI, run away!
When I first became a manager I was told the "three envelope story". New manager comes in, his predecessors says 'here are three numbered envelopes. When it gets bad, open one." It gets bad right away, he opens first envelope, it says "Blame Predecessor". He does it, stuff still bad, he opens second and it says "Reorganize". He fires people, promotes others, it stays bad. He opens the third envelope and it says "Prepare three envelopes for the new guy". Iger is still trying to use the first envelope strategy but soon he'll move on to the second one.
In this video, Disparu was specially inspired and on point. Keep up the good work my man. It might seem over the top, but i really think you are helping to save our society.
As long as Disney keeps Bob the house will be on fire. Bob is the ignition source. Get rid of Bob and you might be able to save Disney. Doubtful but maybe. So it's definitely not going to happen. Did Bob really try to brag about Disney Plus? It came pre-installed on my phone. I canceled it right before I had to pay. Like a lot of people. And there were a lot more people who got tricked and forgot canceled before they had to pay. Once they realize they were paying they canceled though. We all know Disney plus isn't doing well. And yet he's still going to brag about it? Do these people know the internet exists? I'm also 100% done with creatives who hate the projects they're on and end up shooting on them. If Hollywood wants to hire people who hate the projects are on for projects Hollywood can go pound sand. I am sick and tired of these people taking opportunities that people would absolutely love to have for a paycheck. If I shit all over the job I did I'd get fired. So should Taika Waititi, Rachel Ziegler, and any other rich asshole. So did they only hire bob chapac so that Bob Iger could shit on him forever? Because the man was only CEO for a year. There is no possible way he could have done that much damage. Just not possible.
Don’t really care what they do. Nothing zigla is in will see a cent from me, it’s not just Disney, EVERY single clown that rode the woke train can fark off.
Directors shouldn't allowed to handle franchise they don't like. All of these directors had similarities of response once their movies flop. "I don't like this anyway." And they could get away with it.
A good question to ask oneself: Why would Disney give the MCU over to several almost first-time writers or directors? I have a hunch that they didn't expect there to be a future and wrote Marvel off after phase 3
@matthewmosier8439 Because ESG. If 80% of your staff isn’t NOT white and NOT male, you aren’t eligible for awards, or that sweeet ESG cash. The system is outright racism/discrimination, in the name of stopping racism/discrimination. 🤡
I’m not exactly an Elon fan (I’d say I’m more net neutral), but I will say that he was honest that this will probably destroy Twitter/X and accepting that fact while also still calling out the sources at play. I find that highly respectable.
The history will remember this period as the 'Dark Age of Hollywood' and historians will scratch their heads at the stupidity of this whole clusterfuck. Also, DaCosta forgot bigoted, lol. Her line of insults is incomplete without it :D.
It must be said, that your videos like this prove that YOU are performing the vital service that NEWS JOURNALISM USED to provide. While there are a couple of outlets in the UK that still report unbiased news, here in the States, 99% of it is dead - and following lockstep to the beat of the big pharma/government/tech/education/ corporate's fascist evil agenda. Thank you, my friend, kudos, mega dittos, and keep up the good fight! Loudboy2112
Bob Iger excuses: "I ran outta gas. I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts! It wasn't my fault!"
Great video, dub’d! Elon has gained a lot of respect from this guy. As a ‘60s and 70’s kid, I was a Disney fan. I was a major Star Wars fan. I was also a tremendous Marvel fan! Disney will never get another $1.00 from my family.
Johnson was trying so hard to spin what Elon was saying. I mean, David didn't know how to respond. Hopefully, Andrew will be better prepared next time.
I love how Elon doesn’t give 2 fucks and doesn’t sugar coat things or use roundabout business language all the time. Man is living his life and doing a job.
Disney has had massive box office flops and poor critical reviews for movies such as The Marvels and Wish recently, but the cherry on top was Elon Musk and Disney CEO Bob Iger giving Dealbook interviews. With Elon Musk calling out Bob Iger by his name and even talking about how many people claim to be doing while, while actually doing evil. These interviews were great. Bob Iger admits some problems but seems to totally miss the point. Alongside obfuscating the actual truth behind a wall of corporate speak. The interesting part comes when you contrast his opinions here against his investor SEC filings. Where Disney admit the real reason why they are failing. They are no longer aligned with their audience. And this can't be solved, with their current staff. Is it too late for Disney? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
Wish should be renamed to Fish. After all, it flops like one.
Thor isn’t even exclusively a property of Marvel or Hollyweird, we can make our own fan fictions infinitely more inspired than the activist shills and iconoclastic morons Hollyweird and Dismay (Disney) insist on ‘employing’. Base it on a love for Norse culture, Traditions, stories, history and mythologies, actually pay tribute to the history of not just the People of Europe, but use that mythology to branch into others, and connect the multiverse through different deities, messengers and gods dreaming of worlds, mortals and gods. It could be a beautiful story of how we are all human, united, even if our spiritual languages were shattered, we all tell similar stories and tales. To try and teach, convey and pass on meaningful lessons, morals, scruples, standards and values to future generations. Yeah, the Dismay (Disney) Rotten Kingdom doesn’t want those types of stories, They’d rather push animosity and corporate approved h@tred.
Elon Musk is a media/intel fraud, or you might say "agent" or "actor". His real identity is actor Scott Wolf.
Disney is done.
They need some *White Man Magic*
Now!
I'm not even consciously boycotting Disney. I just don't care about anything they create anymore.
You're not the only one. It would explain the absurd amounts of money spent on Disney advertising.
Their last resort is to push the name of the company in our faces. So we don't completely forget they still exist lmao
Same. Last Disney content I watched was End Game, and even that was cause I was already invested in the MCU and wanted closure. When you see Disney, you know exactly what you're gonna get...
Soul was pretty good though, I liked that movie. Oddly enough, they didn't market it at all, nobody watched it, and they just brushed it under the carpet to be hidden forever.
that sounds like me. And - I was a pretty major fan in the past - so it is different.
Globalist authoritarianism by design will ruin everything good to usher in a new dark age of feudalism.
My first glimpse of the evil of Disney was their purchase of The Muppets from the estate of Jim Henson, who adamantly refused to sell it to Disney while he was alive. Disney is just a corporation now. No soul.
Disney flew too close to the sun on wings of woke.
More like wings of shit. I get that's redundant but even if they tried to do something not woke I guarantee it will still be shit.
That would imply that the sun is something to aspire to, they just Ultimate Kars'd themselves into space for all eternity...😂
Nah... Their nose was too close to the brown eye of woke...and got a little extra for it....
Nah, they quit flying after the governments of the world shut down their favorite island a few years back >.>

Woke activists posing as 'writers' are always in the radical-left marxist camp and their number one goal is to destroy the stable family unit.

I can write the premise for nearly every Disney cartoon kids movie. Dad is an idiot, mom has rules, the kid breaks the rules and by breaking the rules solves a major problem, then in the end of the movie the parents are apologizing to the kid for having dumb rules and thanking the kid for solving the problem. Why would any parent choose to groom their kids with that kind of garbage?
Is this true, I didn't know it was this bad? Give me a couple titles I can check out.
You forgot that idiot dad HAS to be white, mom a poc, and the kid probably trans, or at least gay

You act like parents are never wrong about anything.
@@zombifiedpariah7392The ratio of mistakes between children and parents is wider than the Grand Canyon.
Disagree if you're childless.
Disney is a zombie company. They forgot their founder’s core values, and audiences spoke, loudly.
If you research Walt Disney, you will find there never were any values. It's shocking.
The powers that be at Disney and their ilk were taught totally opposite values all their lives. This is the result.
There's an interesting trend in all businesses. They're usually started by a charismatic who can get people on-board with his ideas and plans for the future. But eventually the charismatic dies or leaves. And the business remains. And then it either falls apart, freezes into a bureaucracy trying to carry out the charismatic's ideas after he's gone, but with none of the inspiration or leadership ability, or some new charismatic is found who more often than not leads the business in a completely new direction.
I think Iger was the last. He had the full faith and confidence of the board and investors (and still does for many of them and the media), but none of them understood that he never intended to carry out Walt Disney's vision, but his own. He wasn't going to reinvigorate classic Disney, but make Nu Disney. And Nu Disney is a genderless utopia where sex convicts can play with other peoples' children. A very different kind of place than Classic Disney.
They didn't forget. They simply hate Disney's old core values.
That’s exactly what it is, it’s a proxy company for The World Economic Forum as their propaganda wing, I’m not exaggerating, that’s literally exactly what it is, a Marxist propaganda company for Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink, Soros etc
The worst part of all of this, is that the core problem is so obvious but the company chooses to be oblivious and push what they want. I’ll be shocked if they question theirselves in the future on why they are failing.

Algorithm of cultural demolition
1. pump up EVERY classical and pop culture with crap and evil
2. invert morality on cultural mythologies
3. make common people HATE their heroes and morals
4. ERASE the old materials without a trace, prosecute the possession of them
5. pretend that the reversed morality evil material was the ORIGINAL culture all the time
What the owners of Disney do not realise is when a franchise has a fan base already it's best to stick to the original program
What they thought actually in theory was if they can get all the girls as well to see their product, their profit will double as well.
They were banking that existing fans wont leave the franchise.
That was the sole reason for hiring nobodies as actors, directors and writers in later phase. To increase profit and nothing else

I don’t believe Disney is capable of being who they were as they have got rid of everyone who had the traditional Disney mindset and replaced them (and in tern their culture) with too many woke people who genuinely believe that it’s their role to mold the minds of our children towards their dangerous political and social beliefs).
Respect to Elon for standing up to their constant threats, I only wish it wasn’t going to hurt companies that had the integrity to stand up and say enough, as he did. That advertising machine may suddenly feel threatened and band together (even if they do not have aligned views with the Disney’s of our world) just to assure their dominance and control on the companies and agencies that rely on their support, and in turn those weaker companies that “depend on” or are indirectly manipulated by their sponsors, may feel they have to now ostracize and distance themselves from The Elons (Companies that say enough, you do not make our policies or control our core beliefs anymore), just so that they don’t loose their financial crutch.
Congratulations. You made one of the dumbest comments I've ever seen on YT.
It's mad how quick this has all went downhill, collapsing into chaos. The Iger's & his cohorts are insane for blaming the fans for their demise, & all because we are not paying to watch horrible movies, instead of looking at themselves. I'm not sure this can be fixed.

2013 they made the frozen musical, so Disney musicals were not even good back then.
was watching the Jungle Book with a grand child and were whooping it up singing along with the songs (absolutely love King Louie)

@@boobah5643The animation might not be their greatest but the story and music make it a great event for kids and that to me is more important than the best animation.
Very good analysis. Disney executives are compromised, evil or mad. All of those 3 are bad for the company, society and themselves.
compromised. they went to that island too many times.
They want to shrink the company so the regulator’s don’t carve Disney up on Acquisition. You don’t fail this hard by accident.
which going to Jeffrey Epstein's island means they're profoundly evil - and is why Disney is so all embracing of a groomer agenda with their degeneracy aimed at children as their prey
Healthy mix of the three?
Early life.
Given how much money Iger is paid, I can see why he says he's successful regardless of how much money the company is losing. If I was a soulless corporate ceo raking in seven figures a year I'd be pretty satisfied with myself too.
Sure, If you're a sociopath. Bob is nuts. He doesn't understand business is more than buying stuff.
The problem is that after earning so much money it has become meaningless to him.
That's why he came back after the pandemic was over, because money isn't the goal.
Power and legacy is.
Unfortunately for Iger his arrogance is what is tarnishing that legacy.
@@ardendragoonHe's not a business man.
Musk is. Trump is.
Business men get uncomfortable watching a company burn money due to graft or inefficency.
But a lot of modern CEOs are college educated leftists.
They can't run companies.
The last year Bob Iger will be as Disney CEO is the year, when Disney goes bankrupt. Im not sure will he then pay somewhat from his own wallet for Disneys bankrupcy. Its his own fault for going political with his company, instead of making quality producys the customers ask for, that will eventually cause Disneys bankrupcy.
It's actually 8 figures
I went to watch Top Gun Maverick in theaters twice. First time on the standard showing and rewatched a week later in IMAX. It just takes a good movie for people to go into movie theaters and spend money. Disney just has been putting out dumpsters of rubbish
As a father and a grandfather I will never take my kids to any Disney property or buy them any Disney products or take them to any Disney films!
Disneyland tokyo is a whole nother beast! Owned by Oriental Land, its the best Disney! They are the franchise but do their own spin.
The reason Disney is in the shape it's in is because of Bob Iger wanting to fight the culture wars and pushing an activist woke agenda.
The ppl that own Disney are the ones pushing that. Those same people print the money. Profits dont matter, it's about pushing the message.
Honestly listening to Iger speak was embarrasing. You could easily tell that his sole agenda was to make himself look good.
Yep. Go Woke, go broke.
All so he could ride the Democratic ticket to become US President.
Yes sociopath. Ceo. Hand in hand. But he is also walking into a shit storm that was created in his absence. He's already made leaps and bounds to backtrack it with cancelations,reshoots, and admitting that they've lost sight of their main priority. He's not the only one making decisions. It's not a dictatorship.
What you have to understand is this: As of this moment, Disney will not stray from THE MESSAGE regardless of loss because they are not allowed to stray from it. Their institutional shareholders, the large investment firms, have a stranglehold on the entertainment business especially Disney because of its reach to children. This is what Klaus Schwab’s stakeholder capitalism is all about. It’s about them deciding which values we should embrace and cramming them down our throats. This is one major aspect of the Great Reset
Dude STFU it's just capitalists controlling culture as well as the economy. As far as "resets" go the economy is always reset constantly because when stocks lose value working class people are fired and stocks can be gathered up at a low price by companies and the ruling class. The economy has slumps as part of its design literally all the time. Conservatives take the bait all the time and act like this is a one time thing when if you just read Karl Marx you'd see it's a frequent part of capitalism destroying our lives.
They print the money, I don't see why money is the problem...
Precisely, they are a proxy company for the World Economic Forum, they are literally a propaganda machine for Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink, Soros etc., they are no longer a company whose mission is profit for shareholders and providing entertainment for people, I just wonder how long they can continue considering various finance laws, I think its actually against the law to intentionally lose money
It honestly wouldn’t surprise me if the CCP is also financially involved and has a say here as well.
@@Rovr0 They have a say because, ostensibly, at least, the Chinese market is the largest on the planet, so releasing films there is worth a lot of money. Vague rules for who gets to release what films keeps companies guessing, to the point that they pay a CCP apparatchik to censor the film at all stages of production to get a better chance at a Chinese release.
And that quickly becomes censorship of the corporation's entire output, because offensive film _B_ can (and has) led to banning films _A_ through _Z_ from Chinese release.
They are so deep in those "weird funds" that they would rather burn the company down that admit the reality that preaching and lecturing don't sell
Iger couldn't change now if he wanted to (he doesn't), as they are now too financially weak to withstand the withdrawal of the ESG funds . They're essentially in the same trap Bud Light stepped in. They've chosen sides in a culture war against the bulk of their (former) customers, and set their multi-billion dollar brand on fire. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Especially when what they preach is evil and degeneracy
Leftism is all about trying to chant one's own solipsistic fantasies into reality, and believing they can get their antithetical to objective truth ideologies to work if only they have enough power to force everyone in the world to believe in them, too. So of course they're not going to confess and repent of their sins; they believe in power to truth (the belief that they can make their lies become truth with enough power), so admitting they're wrong undermines their entire dogma, and they're so inculcated by their beliefs that they've based their very identities on them, so they view being proven wrong with the existential dread of identity death.

Does disneys constant haemorrhaging of money and customers not lead you to believe Elon may be doing this for other reasons than peak profit??!? Maybe he actually cares about the society he lives in?
You’re talking about a man with an insane amount of money, who purchased the most hatefully divisive piece of sh!t in the entirety of western media, and fired every divisive, pro-censorship clown in the circus.
IF the company fails, he has set it up so the world knows it is going under because he REFUSED to be blackmailed. You can’t buy that level of integrity.
Financially he will be just fine regardless. But he never bent over to what he sees as the giant destroying the future of his own society.
what's funny is that when Elon said FU, Iger was at the same NYT summit. Im sure Iger didnt have the balls to face Elon in the same building.

Pretty much why I’m a fan of every video you produce by proving why “entertainment” today is horrible in Hollywoke.

Just got back from watching Godzilla minus one. Best movie I’ve seen since endgame and it didn’t need a a 10 year build up. Also, it was made with a 15 million dollar budget. It looked amazing btw. So wtf is Disney doing with all that money from those high budget movies and shows???
He says it’s “hard when something you love and have put your heart into so much is struggling.”
Yea, Bob… imagine how us Disney fans feel. Or the Star Wars fans that have to watch our heroes be emasculated. Or Indiana Jones be treated like a bigot misogynist… It’s gross…

All of this BS is coming from the top from firms like Blackrock and Vangaurd to try and whitewash their criminal conduct and the fact they are the most evil corrupt companies on Earth.
It's the goal of all identity politics starting with the kings of fake woke identity politics, the Israel lobby. They pioneered this by using fake claims of "antisemitism" to shut down all valid criticism and debate over their blatant war crimes. That is where the modern identity politics scam was started and perfected and all the shit libs who call anyone they can't win an argument against an "ist or a phobe" as well as 99% of Congress are owned and controlled by them.
I disagree. Leftists THINK they're being compassionate... but it's the compassion of small children. They see problems in a simple-minded way and see solutions in a simple-minded way. It's why their spokespeople are so often children, and why most adults do eventually mature enough to realize that it's all nonsense and the world doesn't work the way Leftists pretend it does.
If you want to try and convert a Leftist (it may take years) you have to go where they live and agree that they are seeing problems. And, actually, they probably are. And then you have to start walking through solutions and their consequences so they can see that none of their answers can function. It's not even particularly hard. Once they admit that they think people can't be trusted, they have to grant that their leaders aren't supermen and can't be trusted either. Once they admit that there can never be an infinite amount of everything desirable, they have to grant that some people will get things and some people will not. There aren't any other choices. Usually at this point they say to me, "Well we have to do something!" And I ask them to let me know when they know something that's actually better.
I don't hold my breath waiting.
Good riddance, new woke Disney.
Iger is such a slimeball.
Laughed my ass off when he said we need more executives micromanaging on set.
Everyone knows it is Iger's and not Chapick's fault. That Iger is the one that set Disney's course before he left in 2020. These guys really do think the public is stupid. And if you think about it, Disney's doesn't want to appeal to the audience they've lost. If they did, they would continue to advertise on X.
Not everyone knows its all Igers fault.
Only those who've paid attention to what Disney has been doing since 2015 or so know it.
They thought simply making products with the names the fans loved meant they make money. Then they made terrible products and blame us for not swallowing sludge.
Nope they were one step further. They thought if they seem to further a message, more public apart from their core base will see their product irrespective of quality.
The funny thing is that a message can be put in a show without being preachy. Star Trek did it in the past. I disagree with the politics in Star Trek from the 90s - 2000s. But they made good entertainment, so I didn't care. Now they just say forget stories, just put in the message 🙄 and act like it's they same as the old stuff.

It seems like he knew Disney was imploding so he decided to step down and name a successor that he knew would continue all of his projects and continue that path.

He wanted to craft an “I’m your savior” moment but it ended up that people realized, no Bobby your the cause.

I still recall that leaked Disney meeting video, where one woman, an executive member of the Disney Production Staff, was describing her personal household. She wants to project that lifestyle she has in her home with her children to the public, as if the public will follow her example.
All her example is, her home neighbors tell their children not to befriend her children and to never enter her home. That is a very strange home lifestyle that she was describing. That is the lifestyle that she assumes and demands to project onto the public.
This is what is hired at Disney. She is an example of the Crux of the problem at Disney.

Tolkien said it best, and Disney is living proof.
Crazy thing is I’m a big marvel comics, fan and a Star Wars fan. I just wish it wasn’t owned by Disney at this point.
Remember when it seemed like a _good_ thing that Disney had purchased Lucas Films, because Lucas himself didn't seem interested in doing more _Star Wars_ and Disney would?
Free market is tossing it's weight around, destroy Meritocracy and self destruct, can't be any other way.
Likely be reborn better and much smaller, lol.
I’m an ex-Marvel comics fan and ex-SWs fan. I’m also an ex-Dr. Who fan and ex-Pixar fan.
Join the dots…
@@clogs4956 I am both an ex-Star Wars and ex-Star Trek fan. I have a lot of empathy for ex-Dr.Who and ex-Marvel and ex-DC fans. I feel like we have a lot in common.
@@clogs4956 HAHA RIGHT 😂
Thank you for some extra context around that interview, A lot of the things Elon said were very well put. Like the bit about people desire the appearance of being good, while doing evil.
I was 2 years old when my grandmother took me to the Anaheim grand opening of Disneyland. To say I was a fan is an understatement. I have celebrated every year at Disneyland. However I haven’t, nor will I ever , step foot anywhere near this company again. They have become everything I hate about the direction our country is going.
Look north to see what will happen to the USA if you guys get another “placed” (not voted for) demondcrats in the next election. It’s bad in Canada real bad
These executives get paid millions of dollars and they still can't figure out what everyone sees
Peter principle. CEOs have literally always been incompetent
Their incomes and careers depend on their not seeing.
Pay me 800k plus options to tell people the moon is made of cheese and I'm all in on that tasty lunar goodness.
They very well can. This is by choice that they're doing this.
Any company that is anti-free speech and woke child groomer is a major NO NO for my whole family and everyone I know...
Absolutely!
The anti-woke are no free speech champions. They get all triggered over Elon and Trump.
Bob Chapek wasn't a "mistake" he was a "fall guy". He was NEVER in charge, so all the failures on his watch were started on Iger's watch and Iger was in charge the whole time from behind a curtain while Chapek was "CEO".
Could be. It has precedent in lefty organizations/ countries.
Note Russia about 20 years ago
A restaurant owner sits the chef down and says, "The restaurant is failing. The chief complaint is poor food quality. What do you think we should do about it?" The chef replies, "Larger portion sizes?"
😂
Thanks!
I’m a woman and the whole girl boss and Mary sue pisses me off. They need to stop, it is not feminism. I want Disney to stop remaking the great original movies that I watched as a child and still watch with my son and nieces. Well my son doesn’t watch the princess movies lol. Give us entertainment not their agenda they keep pushing. Also Disney needs to stop with the gender ideology and politics.
I saw some of the princess movies as a kid. Still some good introduction to mythology and idealised male role models as virtuous princess.
it is feminism
feminism originated from marxism
the whole "equality and girl power" thing is a scam, feminism is one big lie fed to women and to control them and their choices and world view
But you’re not outraged enough to be the loudest complainer.
And the blackwashing. So gross.
I can’t believe Iger said he tried to distance himself, like that excuses him from responsibility for the failures! He’s admitting he’s a weasel that doesn’t take responsibility when things go badly. He came back to fix things and it’s all worse than ever. I’m amazed he had the balls to be interviewed at all. He looks like such a fool.
He hand-picked Chapek and NEVER LEFT HIS OFFICE. He was sitting right there the whole time. Not to mention that he green-lit most of the bombs that occurred on Chapek's shift YEARS before Chapek was even mentioned. It's amazing that anyone falls for Iger's nonsense.
weasel is the perfect word.
"Ah ah ah! First rule of leadership, everything is YOUR FAULT." - Hopper
Iger came back to 'fix' the stuff that he himself broke and also that sweet 8 figure paycheck. The paycheck is important, as Bob got rug pulled when FTX went arse-over-tit and all his NFT's tanked.
Be thankful it's private enterprise existing only by our choices.
Why failure as an option is crucial for accountability, for health and prosperity.
Governments never in our direct control.
Spot on. These people are in a cult and don't care how much money they lose. They will take the company down with them.
Unfortunately not, Blackrock will still pay the bill and nothing will change.
@@kimlarsen4472 or the government will. Let's see how it goes.
I can live without Disney, because I can’t live with it.
Thank you. I will apply these wise words to my addiction to weed and p*rn.
You know your out of touch when board meetings are about realigning with your audience. Wtf disney. Get a clue what half the country thinks
I think this is a huge positive as it's coming to light that the majority of people are not woke and maybe it requires a few martyrs to show the people in power this.
@rileyp7Wokeness works best when you are a billionaire or a CEO. You can relax on your mega-yacht in between interviews about how regular people need to cut back on driving their 10 year old pickup trucks to save the world from the climate.
@matthewmosier8439
Seems to me like wokeness works best when you are an inner city spoiled child, who scored a job in a big company due to ESG scores meaning your average grades, poor attitude, and general all round underachievement, walk you directly into a job you don’t deserve.
All you need to destroy a company or civilization is to destroy Meritocracy.
No one cares about Elon. Most people don't care about the whole Trumpy vs. woke culture war. To me, it's an idiot on the left and an idiot on the right. I refuse to believe those are my only choices.
@@samblack5313 Ah, no, wokeness comes out of college campuses, white suburban, college bound and college graduated. Inner city folks are more conservative than you are. You just never met one before.
Jeezus, Iger has NO MORAL COMPASS💩
When the costs has gone up and the quality of the output went down it's probably corruption. What we see here is that more diversity leads to more corruption. The same happened in South Africa.
All you need to destroy a company or civilization is *to destroy Meritocracy.*
Employment based on anything but aptitude, integrity, productivity... is catastrophically immoral.
@tcdrx Who would have thought that allowing millions of uneducated, unskilled, culturally/religiously diverse minorities to infiltrate your country, would have both immediate and long term negative impacts on the quality of life of your citizens?
If Disney wants “Consumer Acceptance”, wants to make money, then go with the “Angel Studios Guild” model.
As a Norwegian, I don’t even get how they’re allowed to use Thor and the cult of Odin as part of their franchise and as part of “marvel” when it’s part of my heritage and cultural identity. Like, that’s the equivalent of having Jesus or Muhammad as part of the avengers
You should protest!
Viking Lives Matter!
When a CEO starts the interview with, "I've tried really hard to distance myself from...." that running shoes have already been put on. The Disney execs all sound like that old song..."It wasn't me."
The only difference between Bob Iger and a sack of sh** is the sack.
Spent billions and billions to aquire Marvel, a property with thousands of successful well developed interconnected stories already written, then proceeded to flip up the lid, dump all of those stories in the bin, and start from scratch. Make it make sense.
Women are in charge of institutions now and are "destroying the patriarchy" and men are letting them because they're too simpish.
Seeing that Dr. Who clip makes me want to cry. Poor David looks like he's dying inside, knowing what he agreed to come back to
David deserved better. 100%. He was a huge part of what made DW great. They basically sh*t all over his iconic portrayal of the character.
I remember everyone saying that the mouse has become to big to fail, and I think he truly believed it lol😂🤣😂🤣
Disney knows what the audience wants because it consistently gives them the exact opposite - you need to know where true north is in order to keep going south.
Best analogy ever.
"You need to know where true North is in order to keep going in the complete opposite direction!"
Dude that was gold 😘👌
I truly do not think the Disney company can be saved in it's current form. Crash, burn, attempt the pheonix thing; I don't even want to wish them luck.
"THEY KILLED DISNEY! YOU BASTARDS!" 🤷
You are right on! Thank you.
Disney is dead to me.
Iger and Disney are fulfilling the saying, "The operation was a success, but the patient died!" Investors. If you care about your ROI, run away!
When I first became a manager I was told the "three envelope story". New manager comes in, his predecessors says 'here are three numbered envelopes. When it gets bad, open one." It gets bad right away, he opens first envelope, it says "Blame Predecessor". He does it, stuff still bad, he opens second and it says "Reorganize". He fires people, promotes others, it stays bad. He opens the third envelope and it says "Prepare three envelopes for the new guy". Iger is still trying to use the first envelope strategy but soon he'll move on to the second one.
In this video, Disparu was specially inspired and on point. Keep up the good work my man.
It might seem over the top, but i really think you are helping to save our society.
As long as Disney keeps Bob the house will be on fire. Bob is the ignition source. Get rid of Bob and you might be able to save Disney. Doubtful but maybe. So it's definitely not going to happen.
Did Bob really try to brag about Disney Plus? It came pre-installed on my phone. I canceled it right before I had to pay. Like a lot of people. And there were a lot more people who got tricked and forgot canceled before they had to pay. Once they realize they were paying they canceled though. We all know Disney plus isn't doing well. And yet he's still going to brag about it? Do these people know the internet exists?
I'm also 100% done with creatives who hate the projects they're on and end up shooting on them. If Hollywood wants to hire people who hate the projects are on for projects Hollywood can go pound sand. I am sick and tired of these people taking opportunities that people would absolutely love to have for a paycheck. If I shit all over the job I did I'd get fired. So should Taika Waititi, Rachel Ziegler, and any other rich asshole.
So did they only hire bob chapac so that Bob Iger could shit on him forever? Because the man was only CEO for a year. There is no possible way he could have done that much damage. Just not possible.
No, Iger is not the only problem.
The workers within the company are an issue too.
@@TheOriginal_Unaleskabecause Bob installed his lackeys and they installed their own lackeys
Well written
Don’t really care what they do. Nothing zigla is in will see a cent from me, it’s not just Disney, EVERY single clown that rode the woke train can fark off.
Iger gave Chapec the CEO's seat because Iger thought Chapec would be his puppet. Unfortunately, the puppet had his own ideas and that would never do!
Disney is burning and I wouldn't pee on them to put them out!
Not "what was Bob thinking?" More like "With what was Iger thinking?"
Boycott anything to do with Disney!
An amazingly lucid take on the problem. Too bad main stream journalism can't see it. I guess they're part of the problem.
Directors shouldn't allowed to handle franchise they don't like. All of these directors had similarities of response once their movies flop. "I don't like this anyway." And they could get away with it.
A good question to ask oneself: Why would Disney give the MCU over to several almost first-time writers or directors?
I have a hunch that they didn't expect there to be a future and wrote Marvel off after phase 3

Because ESG. If 80% of your staff isn’t NOT white and NOT male, you aren’t eligible for awards, or that sweeet ESG cash.
The system is outright racism/discrimination, in the name of stopping racism/discrimination. 🤡
I luv what You said on FNT about a person doing evil thinking it's good is worse than a Tyrant. Beautiful Truth, brother!!
Imagine being laughed out of an interview because u have "diversity equity and inclusion officer" as a previous position.😂
I’m not exactly an Elon fan (I’d say I’m more net neutral), but I will say that he was honest that this will probably destroy Twitter/X and accepting that fact while also still calling out the sources at play. I find that highly respectable.
They need to fire everybody in Hollywood and never re-higher anyone from Hollywood!
The history will remember this period as the 'Dark Age of Hollywood' and historians will scratch their heads at the stupidity of this whole clusterfuck.
Also, DaCosta forgot bigoted, lol. Her line of insults is incomplete without it :D.
It must be said, that your videos like this prove that YOU are performing the vital service that NEWS JOURNALISM USED to provide.
While there are a couple of outlets in the UK that still report unbiased news, here in the States, 99% of it is dead - and following lockstep to the beat of the big pharma/government/tech/education/ corporate's fascist evil agenda.
Thank you, my friend, kudos, mega dittos, and keep up the good fight!
Loudboy2112
Sorkin seemed to have a lot more respect for Musk than he did for Iger (when you watch both interviews in entirety)
Thanks for that, only watched Elon, will check other. (hope you are right!)
You have thought this through, and this is a brilliant take on what is going on
Bob Iger excuses:
"I ran outta gas. I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts! It wasn't my fault!"
G…F…Y…
“They’re going to boycott Disney?”
“They already are” 🎤 ⬇️
Great video, dub’d!
Elon has gained a lot of respect from this guy.
As a ‘60s and 70’s kid, I was a Disney fan.
I was a major Star Wars fan.
I was also a tremendous Marvel fan!
Disney will never get another $1.00 from my family.
Johnson was trying so hard to spin what Elon was saying. I mean, David didn't know how to respond. Hopefully, Andrew will be better prepared next time.
kinda like my daughter's boyfriend jim, brandon, that one guy, creep #3, Eddie, etc
It’s almost as if money is no object and the most important thing is to get out ‘ the message’
I love how Elon doesn’t give 2 fucks and doesn’t sugar coat things or use roundabout business language all the time. Man is living his life and doing a job.
