Disney General - The saddest fandom on Earth

[Toolbox]

I'm glad that the daft punks exploded and don't have to see this.

I have a feeling they're going to hire some soundalike music producer just to capture that little bit of magic Tron 2 had due to their involvement.

Tron but on the Internet is an obvious thing that should be easy to do and what people thought Tron Legacy was going to before seeing it was mostly nostalgia bait.

Disney fucked up Ralph Breaks the Internet did they not?

2. The tar baby is a booby-trap literally made of tar so anything that touches it gets stuck to it. "Tar baby" was never considered a slur until modern times, it's only ever been an metaphor for a sticky situation that only gets worse the more you involve yourself in it, usually laid as a trap by someone who would mean you harm. Kind of ironic, though, considering that nowadays talking openly about race has similar outcomes to touching a tar baby.

Also you find the exact story in African folk lore in Africa. I personally heard it first as one of the tasks Anasi the trickster spider had to do to get stories from the sky god. This bit is not in every version as how many and what tasks varies from telling to telling. That's normal with old stories that got passed on mouth far and and wide over time. Still the tar baby included versions do exist and follows the same idea as in Song of the South. Just that the baby is sometimes call a doll and is made sticky with sap of a gum tree rather than tar.

To catch the fairy Mmoatia Anasi made a doll and covered it with sticky gum. He placed the doll under the Odum (Tree of Life) where the fairies play and put some yam in a bowl in front of it. When the fairy came and ate the yam she thanked the doll which of course did not reply. Annoyed at its bad manners she struck it, first with one hand then the other. The hands stuck and Anansi captured her.

Rolling Stone really thinks that mocking the fans of the original inception of Splash Mountain is still a good idea

To be honest, the outrage isn’t that deep. While the new ride is scheduled to open in 2024, released concept art shows little besides the characters will change on the ride. From all of the responses, you would think they’re razing the mountain to the ground in front of thousands of wailing kids.

Sisters and Disney content creators @themouselets made it to the park on Friday for one last ride. While the two say Splash Mountain held a lot of memories for them and other parkgoers, they (and a lot others) are ecstatic to see a harmful ride go.

“We are definitely sad to see a ride that was nostalgic for us go, but are super excited for the change because we feel it was very much needed,” they tell Rolling Stone. “Especially for a ride that had racist ties.” According to @themouselets, most fellow Disney Adults agree that some of the reactions are over the top. But the pair say it’s high time for Tiana to have her own attraction — and they’re already planning their next visit.

You can mock Disney consumers for literally being theme park consoomers all you want, but stuff like this is just disingenuous to read. Not even their sarcasm is sarcastic enough. I‘m not even sure if they care this much for The Princess & The Frog as much the as corporation would like you to believe.

Either way, Splash Mountain will be missed, and Walt Disney would be ashamed to see it being given the treatment that it‘s getting in establishment media like this.

The journos weaponizing the closure of Splash Mountain and calling its fans "racists" has left enough of a bad taste in my mouth that I probably won't step foot in the new ride, even if it ends up being a worthy replacement. Hell, I know people who likely won't step foot on Disney property again because they feel alienated by the narrative being spread.

And the saddest thing of all is that James Baskett’s Oscar-winning performance (and his final performance, period) will never be seen again because of these politically correct assholes. Joel Chandler Harris collected all of those stories to keep them alive before they disappeared with the slaves that told them. Ironically, it seems that the very thing he was trying to avoid is now happening.

Honestly I always found it ironic that the people who claim to care for social justice that demand Song of the South and Gone with the Wind to be banned completely. Are erasing the achievements of two black actors and I always kind of get sad thinking about it.

Its gonna be the same ride. Less of a change as Maelstrom to Frozen was. People will go on it because of course you go on the rides for your 120 to 180 a head park ticket.

Disney literally poops out carnival rides with hour waits during peak. (Hello toy story land in Hollywood)

They replaced a ride based off of stories originated from black slaves recorded by an Irish man with a ride based on a European fairytale reskinned to look black.

This shit reeks.

It's one thing when some nobody on Twitter whines and complains about diversity in media, never mind that it's existed and will continue to exist in better forms than their checklist garbage for years.

It's something else entirely when a massive media giant shoving woke shit and forced diversity down your throat:

1. Fails to utilize existing properties with reasonably good or at least not offensively bad female character (YMMV); Mulan, Jasmine, Tiana, Pocahontas, Moana (the Mary Sue of the Disney Princess line) — all of these characters exist within cultural frameworks that could lend themselves well to a diverse line of doll couture. Mulan alone could carry enough ideas for 4-5 designs based around ballgowns that don't all look like European knock-offs, which brings us to
2. None of this is diverse. These are all patterns, colour schemes, and poofy dresses that have graced American audiences in some way, shape, or form. The most 'African' of the designs is by far and away Snow White's (laughable and likely on purpose) but aside from the pattern on the bow and the necklace, that's just your usual princess dress with some patterns that would usually be reserved to add flavour to a male doll's suit jacket sleeves.
3. Can't see past African-Americans who, by the way, seem to have only hip-hop degeneracy and hoodlum activity as a culture because anytime they try to claim they have so much more culture than whitey, we are presented with watered down variations of unsavoury African culture none of them know the names of.
4. Flat out doesn't know how to make anything good. What fucking child would see any of this and go, "Thanks, mom and soy-dad! I'm so happy I can have dolls with hair I can't brush or easily restyle, dresses I can't play pretend with because that's appropriation, and dark skin which means I can never play with them because that's a form of slavery in the year of our lord 20XX! Let's donate this to Beyonce's starving daughters, their mom just missed out on that Oscar for The Lion King: In Real Life: Live Action!"
5. And as an aside: I realize this might be aimed more towards collectors and Disney adults, but which self-respecting bitch is buying one of these dolls and not just making a pinned tweet with a bunch of links to various black-owned scams and saving up for a pretty white doll with better hair and a prettier dress to display on their wall instead? That's a trick question. They have no self respect, it's why dolls like these and most of Disney's shitty out-put the past few years even exists.

It's telling the cutest dress out of this mess is Cinderella's, which is basically just her usual dress with some 20s style vomited up on it. Rapunzel's is repulsive and Tiana's, Jesus Christ, is lazy and confused. Snow White probably would have been better off as some 70s/80s funk/disco tribute because that's African-American too, don't cha know, but again: when they need to scream about culture, they go running to get scraps from a continent they like to pretend doesn't exist 99% of the time.

Difference is that The Wiz celebrated black actors for who they are, and their skin color was irrelevant. Today‘s world in this case has them fetishizing due to their skin color as “diversity” reasons while not understanding it caring for the art or entertainment from said actresses who happen to be black.

Looks like their was an Elsa one too that didn't make the doll cut.

The great tragedy is Disney Plus not having Cory in the house on there. So what if the main actor is a pedo. Kevin Spacey's a pedo and I don't see House Of Cards off Netflix!

Those black actors did not hate white people enough. Clearly they had internalised white supremacy.

Anyone got a good version of Song of The South? My VHS finally broke after so many years of loyal service.

BLM ignores Micheal Jackson and Bill Cosby being slandered, yet both have suspicious unfair trails where DAs and judges brag to the media how they are going to be taking them down for political reasons because their trails begin. This is indeed how BLM thinks. BLM don't like blacks who aren't racist against whites and non-black races. Most the media still going after Micheal Jackson own by Disney and WB. Which were invested in MJ losing because of music rights.
