Disney General - The saddest fandom on Earth

Things should turn around at Disney pretty soon. Since the previous VP for Diversity 'n' Sheeeit:

The new one is fat, but may not be a lesbian, so the DivSco remains equivalent.

The Who wrote a song about this, I'm having trouble remembering what it was called, though.

Cue to the old classic trope: "What could possibly go wrong?".

Why does Wish look like a Fire Emblem game?

Your insulting Waifu Emblem, at least the women usually look semi attractive.

 

[AnsemSoD1]

I thought that was what Wish was going to be, until the first trailer dropped.

Hell for the Pixar Spergs you could even tie in BnL as the big villain.

 

[AnsemSoD1]

Eh, you may have a point there since the Deadline article covering Wish’s initial D32 announcement (Alt link) said that King Magnifico as one of the most formidable foes in Disney history.

And when you use terms like “formidable” and “Disney history“ to describe an antagonist, my mind doesn’t go to some pompous jackass with a magic staff picking and choosing which wishes to grant.

Spoiler: Where my mind goes when I hear those terms

Say what you will about Kingdom Hearts, but the Heartless are pretty damn scary when you remember that they decimated the universe during the 10-year period between KH:BBS and the KH1 and that you can count the methods that can actually kill them on one hand.

Seeing as how this was a celebration of stuff put out by WDAS I think those were purposefully left, especially if it’s related to DTVA’s stuff.

Kingdom Hearts did the whole multiverse thing (Because let's be real here, in reality each world is its own entire universe) better than any of the new capeshit, if only the series could be allowed to have a T or higher rating and the heartless could end up resembling lower todash or warp demons.

i dont get this. why dont they a) just make good movies again, and b) get people who are creative and good at artistic things?

How does that further the religious beliefs of the Disney board?

I decided to watch the new Haunted Mansion going in with zero expectations, and it was fine. I laughed maybe twice, but can't really remember at what. I've never been a big fan of the hat box ghost, so I wasn't thrilled he was the main villain, but I'm also not a fan of Constance Hatchaway either, so I'm glad she wasn't the focus. I kind of wish it was based off the Paris version, just for something a little different.

I also watched Once Upon A Studio and was amazed they even referenced characters from the package films, like Johnny Appleseed. It wasn't great, but I did like that when Mickey saw the portrait of Walt Feed the Birds started playing.

Nah man, we can't have any enjoyable, traditional family films anymore. Everything's gotta have faggots and be about "muh generational trauma." Sure all of their recent animated films with fags have bombed horribly but i'm sure that is just a coincidence.

for lurking in the Disney Park Nerd community for ages I don't recall half the OH HOLY SHIT HAT BOX GHOST fucks that were apparently expected to be given, like, I vaguely recalled it was a thing but not that big of a deal for things that almost happened
like, he's no Orange Bird for stupid nerd shit, that's for sure

I'll see people hype him up every now and then, but it always feels forced. I don't really like his placement in the ride and his effect feel really cheap since it's just two screens alternating between on and off. If it was all practical like it was supposed to be, maybe it would be more interesting? People are hyping him up that he's going to be in the MK version now. I really wonder how many people actually care?

the back and forth about the ethics of putting the Hat Box Ghost before Madam Leota is probably some of the best autism I've seen in ages

Which version of the ride? They updated it to change the storyline a few years back.

I loke both versions, but I think I do prefer the new version better. I like the idea of her dad killing off all her suitors.

Warwick Davis lying about Disney+ Willow series being beloved as woke continue to memory the lesbian fan fiction about ugly dykes.

He isn't. He's saying the film was popular and that's the reason why the shitty series was made. He doesn't want to admit that the series was a festering turd but given Disney are trying to disown it themselves he should not have to. That's their own shame to admit.

Warwick's great. People wanting to slap a dwarf around can go punt "fuck you, got mine" Dinkledge instead.

Bringing actual new stuff for those unaware Disney has started to get into the crack TCG business. Naturally there's a long list of article about it but this one from The Gamer caught my eye.

https://www.thegamer.com/disney-lorcana-merlin-elsa-cards/

Have you seen the latest Disney Lorcana card? It’s Merlin. What about the one before that? Yeah, it’s Merlin too. And the one- you guessed it buddy. Merlin. In The First Chapter, we have one Merlin card, which is the correct amount. Even that might be too high. Coming from one of Disney’s lesser hits, he can think himself very lucky to have beaten Snow White, Tiana, and Winnie the Pooh to the game. But now we’re getting silly.


The first cards revealed for Rise of Floodborn were excellent. Tiana and Pooh Bear arrived, while we got new looks and mechanics for A-list stars like Cinderella and Belle, the latter of whom comes with a potentially game-changing ability. We also got another Elsa, focusing on her riding Nokk from Frozen 2, which brought us up to five Elsas. Given she’s the most famous and popular Disney character created this century, and has been a central mascot of Lorcana since its reveal, it’s only right for her to feature so much.

Merlin now joins Elsa in the elite club of five carders, where just Maleficent sits alongside them and only Mr. Disney himself, Mickey Mouse, eclipses them all with eight. I love Elsa, and think you can never have too many Elsa cards. Show Yourself, I say to future Elsas. I’ll follow you Into The Unknown, and the haters need to Let It Go. Some Things Never Change, and I hope Elsa continues to be one of the most represented characters the game has. But is anyone all that interested in Merlin? He needs to get Lost In The Woods.


When we revealed Lorcana’s gameplay with designer Ryan Miller, he stressed that every Disney character is someone’s favourite, making a point to highlight Sergeant Tibbs. So someone out there likes Merlin a lot, but with five cards to choose from, every Merlin fan can have their own and there would still be a couple left over. I’m glad Lorcana isn’t just going for the biggest headline names for brand recognition, and is instead telling a story, but as preorders for the next set remain on hold (or in some cases, sold out instantly), these reveals are supposed to keep excitement bubbling over. I am so sick of Merlin.


In The First Chapter, we had a Merlin. Fine. Whatever. Some people even liked the card. Then in Rise of Floodborn, we got a second Merlin. I didn’t think much of it. Then we got Merlin as a rabbit, and it seemed kinda weird. Then we got Merlin as a squirrel, and at least that was cute. Then we got Merlin as a crab, and okay I’m getting bored now. Then we got (yeah, still not done) Merlin as a goat. Why is this happening to me? Alongside Merlin we also got Madam Mim as a variety of animals too, but did their chase in The Sword And The Stone really need this many cards dedicated to it? All these horrible furry freaks and still no Gurgi. He just wants some munchlings and crunchlings, is that too much to ask?


The worst part is all of these Merlins are Storyborn, so we might still be due another one to fit the Floodborn theme of the set. The Merlin in The First Chapter is Dreamborn too, so he’s floodless. Elsa has all three bases covered, so we could yet see the unthinkable as Merlin surpasses her. All of the Merlin cards have unique mechanics that (kind of) tie into each animal transformation, and even synergise with Madam Mim in some interesting ways, but that’s a slim silver lining. The rabbit lets you draw cards when bounced, and the goat charges off for lore. It’s cute. Or it would be if there weren’t so many, and they weren’t all Merlin.


Disney is a big factor in my interest in Disney Lorcana. Across my various decks I’ve tried out a lot of characters I’m not a major fan of, and have branched out from building entirely around Elsa, so I know there’s value in a broad range. But on the collecting side, I still mostly just want my favourite characters. That means more Elsa and way, way less Merlin.

As brought to you by Stacey Henley, The Gamer's editor in chief who is usually screaming about JK Rowling hating trans people. The second I saw the title and the source I knew it would be Stacey but I was still amused to see who it would be and unsurprised to find them screaming about an Elsa fetish.

OK, obviously take this with a grain of salt the size of Jupiter, and feel free to bombard this post with rainbows, but this is big if true:

TL;DR: Rachel is supposedly being kicked off of the Snow White remake, to be replaced by Jenny Ortega; this is the real reason why the movie was delayed. This is where the grain of salt comes in: they're also supposedly rewriting the story to be closer to the original to course-correct. Modern Disney actually making changes to please its audience is about as likely as a troon passing, but, like I said, big if true.

 

[Kari Kamiya]

I'll believe it if the dwarfs are all actual dwarfs for reals this time.

I think there's merit to the idea of watching Rachel Ziegler get fed a banquet of dicks.

Disney shareholders know, even if its activist writers and various other creatives don't, that most people who weren't buying into the recent spate of Live Action Remakes aren't doing so because they're various shades of -ist and/or -phobe, but because it's all cynical pandering, and if you're going to ask people to hand over money, especially with the current state of the economy, you have to stop talking down to them.

The fact that Ziegler didn't get the memo (she fucking made the writers' strike about herself...whether or not you agree with the writers' strike, it was a shit move on her part) is not something that people were likely to ignore for too long, particularly when people are bored of Disney changing classic stories to fit modern sensibilities for a very niche audience, not to mention the reaction to Ezra Miller as The Flash (the fallout from that movie should be counted in refugees, not dollars), it wouldn't be surprising in the least that Disney is finally laying the fucking pimp hand on its out-of-control creatives.

What I personally wouldn't give to see a South Park-esque Mickey slapping the shit out of Ziegler. I don't watch South Park anymore, so maybe it's happened.

Jenny Ortega;

Googling her name, she looks somewhat doll like, but at least pretty in that way.

 

[Your Starter for 10]

Not sure if it's true, I hope it doesn't fuck up the release schedule, since it's supposed to coincide with Daily Wire's Snow White release (although I guess they can shift their release too, since it will invariably be smaller and more flexible). I would've thought that would've been equivalent to Asylum having a limited release of Transmorfers: Day of the Beast at the same time as Trasnformers: Rise of the Beasts, but after the success of Sound of Fury and how utterly hard Disney has been felted on their live action shit, I was ready for meme magic to happen.

Although re-casting or cancelling Snow Shite is almost meme-magical enough for me.
