      “We have no obligation to make art. We have no obligation to make history. We have no obligation to make a statement. But to make money, it is often important to make history, to make art, or to make some significant statement. We must always make entertaining movies, and, if we make entertaining movies, at times, we will reliably make history, art, a statement or all three.
      We cannot expect numerous hits, but if every film has an original and imaginative concept, then we can be confident that something will break through.” - Michael Eisner, former Disney CEO

      Yes there was blackface in Mickey’s Mellerdramer, and Jewish parody in The Three Little Pigs, but it’s odd that nobody claims that Robert Clampett hated African-Americans, reason being that one of his most famous cartoons, “Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs” Blacks are portrayed in a positive way, yet it’s now considered one of the Censored Eleven, and Disney’s Song Of The South portrayed African-Americans positively, and people called it racist.

    While it's probably not as bad, Disney's also mistreated animators in the past and has now closed Blue Sky Studios, cancelling a film with a LGBT+ character they had in the works in the process and as many club penguin youtubers have pointed out, their greed basically killed their games in the end to the point they lied to Club Penguin Island employees, telling them they'll have two years at least with their job still, only to three weeks later, decide to let them all go and close Island, with one employee confirming if they were to continue working in the game development area, they would have relocate with their families due to there not being many jobs for game development in Kelowna and this was all after they basically let go of employees constantly with the original club penguin.

    You know what's so awful about Disney's current state?
    Before Walt started the company, he was working with universal studios by making cartoon shorts. He made a character named Oswald the Rabbit. However, when Walt resigned from the studio, they decided that the character belonged to them unrightfully took his creation due to the fine print that never existed.
    You know what Walt did? He made his own animated studio so none of his characters or creations would be stolen by a greedy studio again.
    Walt Disney, The man who made this company, Started this giant superpower Because he couldn't do anything with his own work for a really long time. And it wouldn't have been that long if the company didn't keep pushing back copyright expiration dates. IT TOOK ALMOST A CENTURY TO GET BACK OSWALD, AND THEY COULD HAVE GOTTEN THOSE RIGHTS BACK.

      It isn't even greed.
      In America you need money, and the older you get the more medical issues and in turn money you need.
      As prices go up but the income doesn't increase at the same rate means you need more money.
      It literally becomes a way out of a wheel of suffering and manipulation... by being manipulated.
      Let yourself become the pawn to protect those you love...
      Or let you and your loved ones suffer.

They have almost a full monopoly on kids movies, it’s only a matter of time before illumination and maybe dream works gets purchased.

    I truly feel like there needs to be a huge antitrust law to break up huge corporations like Disney, like an anti-monopoly law. Basically, just break Disney up into what it used to be: a large, yet small entertainment company, leaving them with their regular Disney assets, and that's it. Pixar becomes an independent animation studio again, Marvel Entertainment once again becomes its own corporation, and the same goes for 21st Century Fox, Lucasfilm, and the Jim Henson Company. I know this sounds too optimistic, but I just can't stand for big corporations to keep growing and growing until there's only one mega-monopoly, or worse, they become political entities like corporatocratic states, and I know that Disney is aiming to create one starting with Los Angeles or Anaheim, and Big Tech with Silicon Valley.

Staff members have gone on record that a lot of the songs that were written for those movies were meant to be allegorical for LGBTQ+ people since a lot of the people that worked on them were closeted at the time. On top of that, I feel that pandering or money was less of a priority when it came to the messages those movies wanted to promote.

I am sure the Russo Bros would be more than happy to prepare a version that didn't have her in it at all...her highlight scenes(rescuing Tony, helping subdue Thanos, destroying his ship, leading the female charge, almost stopping Thanos but failing) could ALL have been passed around to other characters. Thor could be in lightning form and get Tony. Thor, Hulk, War Machine can all have Thanos subdued. Pepper(the original MCU leading lady) could lead the female Avengers.

      @@majine.2606 Well, there are plenty that want to make Copyright last indefinitely, and they try constantly. They want to kill things such as fair use and want to make it so people can't use any kind of copyrighted material in any way. It is never enough for these kinds of vultures, they just want more and more control. Thanks to them we now have things such as Article 13/17 in the EU for instance that they now want to bring into the US as well. In Japan meanwhile they are trying to make things such as cosplay a copyright infringement and require pay.
      And then there was that incident during the Clinton era that really showed what they are after. It truly has nothing to do with the creator, it is all for the big corporations. If you don't know, what happened was that one guy quietly snuck in a small amendment to an omnibus bill that no one noticed until after the fact. What that amendment did was that with just four words, all kind of copyrightable materials created by people would immediately fall under the ownership of the big labels. Although the fallout made sure it was removed, it made it clear that they really just want it all. They really want to make things such as independent creators and the like illegal. In short, if you create something, it belongs to them.
      And then the guy who made amendment was then hired and is now the boss of the RIAA.
      And really, things such as copyright, trademark and patent laws are now the biggest obstacles to innovation and progress. All they do nowadays is to hoard loads of them, simply for the sole reason that no one else can have them.

      @@matteste All of this is true, and it makes me fearful of the day when even genuine new twists on public domain stories fall under copyright infringement. Like, how much can an adaptation of The Little Mermaid in the future really change to make it stand on its own, not infringing upon any other adaptations that have been made? Would having the little mermaid with red hair infringe upon copyright? Will having her voice get traded a specific way violate copyright? Even Disney's Aladdin made the change from infinite wishes of the genie to just three. It's scary to think of how much harder it will be for people to express themselves if all of this remains unchecked.
      People take inspirations from stories all the time, so I am a firm believer that the original model of 28 years is how it should be to this day. By no means am I saying Disney should make copyright indefinitely from a moral perspective, just that if lawmakers are always going to take their side every time they push the envelope, they may as well get it over with and stop dangling the carrot. Short of some anti-corporate revolution in Congress, I just don't see it changing anytime soon, regardless if Democrats or Republicans control things.

Thank you for pointing it out, since it'll give me more ammunition to work with when I make my point to a lot of people who don't really seem to care about any of this.
