Will say that hopefully this wakes up some people to see how shallow of a corporation Disney is.
on the local version of iHeart's gay dance station they have a promo specifically talking shit about all the companies that dropped LBTQetc the moment it became inconvenient
 

Disney Pulls Transgender Storyline from Pixar’s ‘Win or Lose’ Streaming Series (A)​

View attachment 6762661
"A spokesperson for Disney confirmed that the story arc was removed and provided the following statement to THR: 'When it comes to animated content for a younger audience, we recognize that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with their children on their own terms and timeline.'"
Funny how both the scrapped troon episodes so far have been about them getting excluded from sports teams.

Rare Disney W?! I know that this changes nothing in the grand scheme of Disney being shit.
 
Excuse me but I must sperg about the rise of skywalker for a moment.
I prefer watching movies in the theater. I prefer the experience of sensory envelopment, though not every experience is better. Some films were too loud. Too much flashing. Once sat in the front row for a two hour movie with my neck craned at a 80° angle. But not once in all my years of movie going did a film give me a headache—until the Rise of Skywalker. The editing and pacing was so shit that it literally made my head hurt.
Okay, so I'm not the only one. That movie is literally the only movie to ever give me a headache while watching it, not helped by the fact I didn't want to see it in the first place. My dad's been a SW fan from the beginning and we'd seen every mainline movie together, and whether it was sunk cost or a refusal to believe it could get much worse, he wanted to see it with me. I went along for his sake, but man, by the time we were headed out of the theater, my head was throbbing. In a just world, I could have sued for damages, or at least gotten my money back for my trouble.

But at the risk of derailing this when there's a perfectly good Star Wars thread over yonder, I'll add that I hope Mufasa fails miserably. It probably won't outright bomb because people still see Disney shit, but if it at least underperforms, that's good enough. It won't kill this stupid remake trend no matter how it does, though. Only Disney dying will.

Not sure if this will be satisfactory to you, and feel free to shower me with rainbows, but I think the third Sonic movie will be eating into Mufasa's lunch hard. Purely anecdotal evidence, but I decided to check my usual theaters to see how the seat availability was this weekend as well as tomorrow, and while there were a number of seats purchased for Mufasa (let's be honest, a complete and utter bomb is unrealistic even if it's welcome), there were multiple times I saw huge theaters for Sonic 3 to be completely packed with the exception of seats reserved for cripples, which was never the case for a single Mufasa screening even if the specific showtime was in a small room.

I also get that the real test is if that type of momentum sticks for next week, but I wouldn't be surprised if it does.

I’m starting to think about Aunt Sarah from Lady and the Tramp. It’s a weird thing to think about, but bear with me for a second.

Did Aunt Sarah buy racist cats knowing that they were both racist, or did she pick two cats that happened to be racist? I just find it sus that she owns not one, but two asian stereotype cats. That, and the image of her walking into a pet store going, “Yes, I’d like two cats to keep those japs out of my house,” is funny
 
All right so here's the scoop on Mufasa now that I basically watched a bunch of reviews that spoiled everything.

I think the only thing I can say is that I like the songs but they're attached to a script that is surprisingly far less promising than I had initially hoped.

Essentially the movie begins with Nala basically having weird schizophrenic behavior and we later find out for Simba that she is expecting a second cub.

The entire story is basically rafiki babysitting Kiara with Timon and pumbaa and he's telling them the origin story of Mufasa which almost reaches biblical levels of propaganda.

Timon and pumba seem to be self aware like they're Deadpool and constantly break the fourth wall talking about the original film, the Broadway show, and even Disney executives for some reason.

Mufasa was born into a drought and his parents essentially sing to him about something Milele which is more or less the pride lands before a flood breaks out and his parents are swept up and seemingly killed (more on this later).

Mufasa is found and saved by baby Scar who immediately tells him that he's always wanted a brother but his father is rightfully not keen on taking in another male lion not just because of the obvious reason but also because there are a group of Outsiders going around and dismantling entire prides.

One pretty decent song later and Mufasa is inducted into the pride but he has to stay with the lionesses which ultimately ends up to be a net positive because he ends up becoming better at them because he's a male lion.

Meanwhile Scar's father tells him to watch his back because male lions tend to betray one another eventually and he doesn't like Mufasa.

Anyways, Kiros ends up attacking with his pride and he's crashing out because his son was killed off thus making him basically the last of his kind so he ends up attacking and killing scars parents but before he dies Scar's dad tells him and Mufasa to leave.

From there it turned into the Lord of the rings where Scar and Mufasa travel with other dismantled animals which include sarabi, her familiar zazu, and rafiki who's basically a stereotypical African shaman.

Mufasa won't shut up about Milele and scar is basically smitten with sarabi and acts kind of like a wingman of sorts but ultimately sarabi ends up falling in love with Mufasa and that is essentially what sends scar down the deep end.

They end up falling in love when they reach Milele and surprisingly it's basically the pride lands and despite a bunch of animals not believing it there's actually a decent amount of animals there including mufasa's mother who somehow survive the flood.

Scar who's basically turned into Jeremy iron Scar voice wise decides to betray Mufasa after he sees that he stole sarabi from him which causes Kiros to attack but ultimately scar has a change of heart and tries to save Mufasa which causes him to get the scar that we see on his face.

Mufasa ends up drowning Kiros and basically ends up becoming King because everybody sees him as the Big hero and he even tries to make scar be a part of his pride but obviously that doesn't really make him feel any better thus leading to the events of the 2019 remake.
