Disney + has blocked this


How stupid can they be? These movies are classics.
I changed my daughter's profile so she is not considered a child and she can she still watch her beloved movies.

Yeah, I heard about this. It is completely stupid, but Disney has always been one to cave to pressure very easily so it's sadly not surprising.

reply

It's because of the amusement parks. If people don't like anything they do they stop going to the parks, which really hurts them in the pocketbook.

Always by physical media my friends.

Todays culture is a joke.

I have them but she likes watching when she wants

I do and I adore my physical animation collection.

I really don’t see what the big deal is?

Boycott Di$ney

reply


Conservatives have always had a hard time screwing together enough sustained outrage to organize a boycott and stick to it, and Disney knows this. Knowing that 20% of the people will have a problem with this phony racism, Disney caves in because those 20% will make their lives miserable. So Disney cancels these innocuous movies and the 80% who realizes how stupid censorship and wokism is go on social media and rants, but it will be over in a few weeks, and no boycott will be forthcoming.

That 20 percent live in mommy and daddy's basement, so that's why they have the time and energy to be a nuisance. Maybe it's time to bring back the draft and make it an equal opportunity situation so we get everybody into uniform and growing up just a bit faster.

Agree.

It has one of those "culturally insensitive" warnings on it. It's dumb but you can still watch the movie on Disney plus just not under a kids profile.

It is even more stupid that they blocked "The Jungle Book" since there are no racial stereotypes in that movie.
But you can't convince some people that not all apes and monkeys in a cartoon are meant to be black people...
