    Walt Disney Animation Studios seems to be in a state of chaos right now. Jennifer Lee has (seemingly) stepped down from her role as Chief Creative Officer to work on Frozen 3 and 4, and Jared Busher (Moana, Zootopia) will be taking her place effective immediately. Did she get demoted and they’re just trying to make it sound amicable? This is mere days after IGN dropped a bombshell expose on the working conditions at Pixar. It sounds like it’s a bad time to work at Disney Animation. Maybe Skydance is hiring?

  • Agatha All Along: How BAD Is It, Really?
    Sep 19 2024
    🐠 Become a MEMBER of The Reef at http://ClownfishMinus.com
    Agatha All Along is out, the media is running with its very mid Rotten Tomatoes score, and most of movie YouTube seems to hate it. But... is it REALLY that bad, or did the media and people associated with the show do some "anti-marketing" before the series dropped, leading to people already making up their minds about the show? Let’s talk about this...

    The backlash against "Agatha All Along" stems from anti-marketing and review bombing, overshadowing its strong performances and humor, while reflecting broader audience fatigue with Hollywood’s ideological themes and profitability focus.

    00:00 Anti-marketing and review bombing hurt "Agatha All Along," which has a low Rotten Tomatoes score despite decent acting and less focus on its gay character than claimed.

    03:19 Hollywood is shifting focus to profitability, as the Halloween-themed WandaVision spinoff features mild adult content and LGBTQ representation without major plot impact.

    06:47 Disney’s ideological themes in products spark audience fatigue, while character identity hints at ties to Scarlet Witch and the Young Avengers.

    08:22 Season 2 draws inspiration from WandaVision, garnering mixed reviews as early episodes entertain but raise concerns about potential later twists.

    10:51 Recent DC films face audience disengagement due to perceived agendas and controversial creator statements, while review bombing narratives are often premature and unfounded.

    14:24 Agatha All Along showcases strong performances and humor but feels contrived, while early reviews are being mischaracterized as "review bombing."

    16:34 Companies should learn from mistakes and improve, while audiences navigate the politicization of entertainment and manage expectations for quality.

    The publisher of Sonic the Hedgehog and TMNT comic books is trying to pivot hard to save itself from bankruptcy. Now they’re talking about publishing BIBLE comics... no I’m serious... but this is after hiring a foul-mouthed sex worker to work on My Little Pony and their editor baits Christians with "Hail Satan" t-shirts. So good look with that...

  • YouTube Goes Full TV! Will Indie Creators Get CRUSHED?

    YouTube is going full mainstream TV with a slew of new announcements that include turning the TV interface into something that looks like Netflix or Disney Plus. Could this turn YouTube into a "streaming service" that will attract more Hollywood types, and will it push out indie content creators in the process...?

    Pixar animators are FURIOUS at Disney because they got screwed out of their bonuses for Inside Out 2. Then we talk about how YouTubers (like us) are being blamed for Disney’s "pivot," but all they’re doing is going back to Old Coke -- what actually works to bring in money.
