Disney abandoned men... But now they want them back??
Did Disney just admit to needing men?? What timeline is this lol. This is the same company that spent billions to buy the heroes and stories that once defined generations - Marvel, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones - but instead of honoring them, they tore down everything that made them beloved. π
Over the last decade, male heroes have been mocked, sidelined, or replaced with condescending female stand-ins, while the gaming industry also joined in on the crusade. The result, as you can imagine, has not been prettyβ¦
Audiences, especially men, have walked away because the stories began to despise the very values and things that drew them in. Meanwhile, franchises that still respect their target audiences - Top Gun: Maverick, John Wick, Helldivers 2, and Warhammer - all prove that celebrating masculinity still works, especially when (shocker) your target audience is menβ¦ π«¨
π¨οΈDo you think Disney can ever win back the audience they lost? Or is the damage permanent?
I personally am not a fan of giving money to companies that hate me *cough Nintendo* and think Disney would have to do some serious groveling and somehow manage to actually put out some good content to get these fans back. π¬
