    He also declared Barbie would fail. Go woke or go broke. Right, Ben?

        Are you unironically saying Disney went broke? The company that probably owns most of the entertain properties that you consume.

          It’s producing nothing but shit lately tho. Marvel movies suck, with the exception of Spiderman which is handled by Sony, Pixar movies suck, their own Disney animation movies suck, Star Wars was a disaster. Sure they may make money but the quality is really, really low.

            Yo, but the facts don’t care about your feelings. Lol

            Disney is printing money whether you like the content or not.

            Producing content you don’t like has exactly zero bearing on this conversation.

            Sure they may make money but the quality is really, really low.

            By this I assuming you mean rake in a metric fuck ton of cash every day of the year.

            Do you understand what ‘going broke’ means?

            Hint: Making money is the exact opposite of that.

          21.92% decline in 2020. Why did they decide to become so incredibly woke for that year alone?!??

              I don’t think so. Perhaps there was a global woke mind virus. Looking at the finances of many companies, it seems they all went broke and thus woke during that specific year.
