"You can bring movies to the public, but you cannot make them sell. Once an unassailable and uniting brand, Disney brand is now negatively associated with activism by a significant number of consumers. The company is now even reporting a decline in licensing revenue from products associated with Star Wars, Frozen, Toy Story and Mickey and Friends — iconic and once-unassailable corporate images," Turley wrote."

Too bad 20th Century FOX didn't own STAR WARS still when The FORCE AWAKENS was made?? Perhaps it would've turned out much different, like having all the heroes reunite in the 1st movie instead of killing them off because in the end, this is the sole reason WHY this movie made the amount of $$$$ it did and it wasn't because of the New Cast either

Faux Newz cherry picks as usual. They take one snippet from a myriad of other issues that could impact the company and run with it thinking it's the biggest issue they're facing. If you see more woke movies then it proves that wasn't as big an issue that Disney was referring to. This mention was short and brief as well in the SEC filing if you search for it.

Snippet or not, facts are facts.

The point was not to disseminate that entire form but to summarize the biggest issue among others.
And if/when they continue releasing more woke shit, it still doesn’t refute the main issue.

Sounds like that dirty ESG money isn't making up for their losses. The worst part is, the studio won't learn anything or change until they get new leadership and a purge is done.
