We are happy to present to you this very limited edition bottle (one, worldwide....on my table) of Veuve Clicquot's La Grande Dame...the "Fuck Chapek!" edition. (I know technically he was fired on the 20th...but most of us got the news on the 21st)
Notice the silver paint pen details, documenting and highlighting this historic occasion. As you turn the bottle, you can see that it is inscribed with the commemorative Motley Crüe lyrics, "Don't Go Away Mad.....Just Go Away", noting and celebrating the occasion.
This too can be yours....for the price of champagne of your choice and budget, and a paint pen.
While I happily toasted that impotent fucker's departure, I equally welcome back Bob Iger, a competent CEO, and a man who had ZERO HESITATION to stand up for Disney LGBTQIA2S+ staff when they needed voices on their side.
So to borrow a classic phrase from our friends across the pond, noting the seamless transition of power:
The Bob is Dead. Long Live the Bob.

If soriku winds up not being canon despite all the foreshadowing, or if they kiss and the series gets cut short immediately afterward, I know who I’m blaming. And it’s not Tetsuya Nomura, or Shinji Hashimoto, or Michio Matsuura. It’s not any of the writers or animators or voice actors. It’s not sincere fans of other ships.
Tumblr media
It’s this fuckin’ guy.

Bob Chapek was running one of the world's largest animation studios and saying in live interviews "Oh yeah, adults don't enjoy animation. It's all kids stuff really"
It's like a large brightly colored billboard announcing loudly to consumers and investors "I plan to bring us back to the animation age ghetto. This is the perfect place for disney going forward!"

you gotta love how Iger dismantled all the stuff Chapek’s did to the company to go all in on the metaverse, then turned around and invested 1.5 billion dollars in making a metaverse play but not calling it the metaverse because everyone agreed investing in the metaverse was a bad play

Mcu Stan's are some of the most ignorant and annoying people especially tony, Wanda and Peggy Stan's. I never understood how you could get mad at Jewish or romani people for having a problem with the way the mcu handles its characters. Countless Jewish people have pointed ot why peggy is problematic and why Wanda is to but people get so up in arms about it like a billion dollar company dosen't have the resources to research the characters they're writing.
Peggy as a character fustraits me so much because I know her problematic orgions in the mcu and so do the writers but they keep pushing her and it's starting to effect things outside the mcu.
‘Nonny, I couldn't agree more! 
They've already retconned the comics-Peggy to match MCU-Peggy/HA, to cover up that they adapted Cynthia-the-Nazi by another name.
(Sorry folks, a turd by any other name still stinks!) 
under a cut cuz you know I had to go off:
They've given this new Buff Liz Truss her own run in the comics, where she performs sudden leftwingism by- omg, guys -discovering Colonialism is bad?? Oh wow, so impressive, give her a biscuit!
And they've had her attacking, somehow beating, and victim-blaming comics-Bucky, saying it's 'insane' of him to question her motives.
(Just like She-Hulk lusting over Steve's ass, you can tell it's a nasty dig by male Disney execs at female fans; in this case at those who point out how rotten Peggy is. 
Ironically, it's super authoritarian, radfem and totally in-character of Peggy to violently attack anyone who dares to question her majesty, since that's the very first thing she ever did on screen!) 
Right before pissing away 80+ years of comics history, showing absolute devotion between Steve and Bucky, to turn comics Bucky into a full blown villain who attacks Steve (y'know, like she did?)
Cutting off comics Bucky's nose to spite MCU Bucky's face, cuz all they really want to do is further de-gay MCU Steve in order to bring his stalker Agent Brexit into the main MCU movies again, (because that's her only value! As an accessory to a man!), while they’re supposed to be raising up a black Cap they transparently Did Not Want. 🤮
.
And just as it was absolutely unforgivable to take Jewish-penned Antifa Steve and pair him off with a Nazi, (I can't help feeling the Indiana Jones movies might have been an influence, there?) 
It was also unforgivable to take Romani Jewish Wanda and turn her into a Nazi. 
Her joint Jewishness and Romani heritage were important, too, because they showed the intersectionality of Fascism’s victims, since comics-Magneto (Jewish) met her Romani mother while imprisoned in Auschwitz. 
(You could also count MCU Bucky under this whitewashing heading, too, since MCU Bucky is partly based on Jewish comics character Arnie Roth. Another Jew made into a villain to serve Disney's Fascist 'don't say gay' values! 
There’s even speculation that they’re going to give WhatIf Bucky Peggy’s shitty corrupt backstory in the next season, and shift the blame off her by having Bucky co-found SHIELDra instead of her. I wouldn’t put it past these whitewashing bastards...)
.
I can't fault the mere existence of Wanda's villain arc, since that is in the comics... 
Except for two things: 
1) it was transparently done too soon, just because a male creative wanted to be the one to have Cool Scarlet Witch Stuff in his movie.
(If there had been, say, a second season of WV, detailing her slow post-bereavement descent down a dark-mother path? That would've been more interesting and made MoM more organic, IMO.) 
2) The real problem, as someone on twitter I think pointed out, is that if you know about Wanda’s Jewish background in the comics... 
Well, the whole film is about an evil red-headed Jewish witch trying to kidnap and hurt a child for magic ritual purposes. 😬  
Which, if you know about the history of antisemitism, and that Wanda was originally Jewish, makes MoM ‘Blood Libel: the Movie.’ 
And it’s not like Disney would give a shit about the antisemitic vibes, if they knew. 
They’re about to undo all the good of the Captain Marvel movie by doing Secret Invasion, where evil lizard people are secretly infiltrating the earth (IYKYK). 
I saw one Jewish person on twitter pointing out: “Someone was arguing that the skrulls don't deserve their own story because they're evil infiltrators and... this is not comforting to me as a Jewish person, you know? antisemitic conspiracy theorists literally describe Jews as evil lizard people who infiltrate and disguise themselves...” 
Captain Marvel repositioned the Skrulls as innocent maligned refugees, but I guess Disney doesn’t give a fuck about standing by that. 
Mask off antisemitism for the Rat. 🤢
.
In terms of Wanda’s show, while WV was a great, well-made show, which I enjoyed, while she was an interesting character in it, and Olsen gave a great performance, what I didn't like were the conservative values. 
It reminded me of the anti- second wave feminism films of the 1980s, where any woman who has a career (read: power, like Wanda has) is shown basically being driven insane by it and secretly just wanting to be a tradwife all along, even to the point of threatening her man if he interferes with it. 
In Wanda, we have a woman who never mentioned wanting the white-picket-fence life before, suddenly being desperate to give up an icky career to be a stay-at-home-mom in the suburbs, just because of the kind of 'golden age' sitcoms Disney would love to be associated with.
And it's presented as a terrible tragedy that she doesn't get to keep this sheltered 'dream' 1950s nuclear-family life and the slaves sorry, ‘prisoners with jobs’ necessary to maintain it. 
The spirit of Kevin Feige’s pathetic self-insert, aka Endgame Skrull Steve, is alive and well.
(As usual, a black woman receives the brunt of the violence, and is then made to comfort Wanda about the 'sacrifice' she has made by giving her hex-slaves sorry, ‘prisoners with jobs', their freedom at the cost of her own comfort. 😯 Holy? SHIT??)
Wanda becoming a villain coincides exactly with her turning from white tradwifism and embracing her (career-related) power. 
As usual with Disney tho, they dun fucked up and accidentally made something you can also read as kinda queer? 
Like: a couple who can't have biological children of their own together (like queer couples)? Who don't get to have that white-picket-fence life? Getting run out of town for trying to live that fantasy anyway?
And then Wanda breaks bad because she's annoyed about that??
Yeah it's no wonder she has been embraced by the gays as a diva!
And, NGL, seeing her deliver some karmic justice to MAGA Carter was SO SWEET. 😩 
(It should've been Bucky tho...)
Tony and Peggy have a lot in common because, no matter what they do, it’s never their fault.
The resemblance to Elon Musk grows stronger every day. 
TERF joke, rape joke, the mistreatment of women in the early IM movies, (ditto the slut-shaming he and Pepper engage in), industrial espionage (buying the rights or outright stealing other people’s inventions and passing them off as their own), eulogising a real Nazi (Wernher von Braun) for doing what Stark Industries did, arguing in favour of Ultron (who operated out of a Hydra base) and Hydra’s Project Insight in EG... and then in Spiderman he just re-makes Project Insight anyway (re-named EDITH)! 
I thought he was supposed to have stopped being the Merchant of Death?
He calls himself a “genius billionaire playboy philanthropist.” 
But a) he just finishes off designs his daddy stole off other people, 
b) the value of which created his inherited generational wealth (not impressive sorry bro, what else did he get? an emerald mine?) 
c) he obviously mis-characterises his interactions with women (stripper-pole air hostesses under his employ? female journalists get a scoop after sleeping with him? pepper made CEO after dating him but mysteriously immediately dumps him once she’s been empowered? saying ‘I want one’ and being reminded of lawsuits when he ogles Natasha at work? this is giving Weinstein), 
and d) what billionaires call ‘philanthropy’ is actually just using charities for tax write-offs, donating to their old alma maters, etc. 
Daddy was a basic bitch thief, who dealt in stolen vibranium, knew about TWS, co-founded SHIELDra, had a villain business partner, and was BFFs with a Nazi torturer of POWs, and the woman who- gawd -she just can’t stop working with Nazis, bless 'er! 
Tony was blowing up people in the Middle East for decades, making a bundle and very obviously enjoying himself (sipping on champagne while the missiles fly) and only stopped doing that, when- gasp -it affected him personally? 
(The villains of IM movies are the ones just: doing what Tony did.)
Despite claiming otherwise, he hung around with black market arms traffickers often enough for Ulysses Klaue to recognise one of his catchphrases and claim “Stark used to say that to me.” 
He helped design Project Insight and saw nothing wrong with it (we know he didn’t, because he kept arguing in favour of it / recreating it.)
Even after this, he lied and sneaked around behind the Avengers’ backs to hubristically tamper with alien tech in order to create Ultron, leading directly to the endangerment of the world and further deaths in Sokovia (in another universe, this almost destroyed the entire multiverse).
He co-signed Accords which violated human rights, not affecting him since he’s rich, just to shift future blame and responsibility off himself and make him look dateable to Pepper. He admitted he knew Bucky was a brainwashed “Manchurian Candidate” but tried to murder him (to spite Steve) anyway. 
He refused to call Steve back when Thanos was coming, just out of piqued pride (if you wanted to calculate the potential consequences of that, maybe: half of all life in the multiverse?) And when asked to help undo the Snap his ego helped create, he says he “won’t, even” because, hey, it doesn’t affect him personally so who gives a shit, right?? 
But like a true billionaire none of this ever has any consequences for him!
He only sees the inside of a jail when he’s visiting!
So what with his messianic nuclear-family ending you can see why Disney haven’t felt the need to sabotage his comics incarnation. MCU Tony is right on-message!

Bob Chapek is doing a new hire freeze for the Disney Parks and. Man. I don’t think I’m gonna get to go back my dudes. It’s already been three fucking years and everyone else I knew is back including the toxic ex friends who spread lies about me and straight up harassed me. Love that.

Hey how about we fire Iger out of a fucking cannon into the sun? Animation workers carried the entire entertainment industry through the first two years of covid, and they did it while working from home, you vile little ass-canker of a man. There is no reason to force people back into the office when there is still an active pandemic!
Everyone wants to act like things are fine now that Chapek is out, as if Iger isn't exactly the goddamn same: a greedy CEO who puts profit over worker welfare. 🙄

So recently I got a threatening anonymous message from a Disney Hater calling me a mindless corporate shill for defending an evil corporation that abuses its employees whose most recent works are nothing but soulless and corporate garbage made by greedy studio executives and that Vivziepop was an inspiration for starting an indie animation “renaissance” posing as a threat to them.
First of all, companies and corporations aren’t evil; they’re not but names and inanimate sheets of paper that state the exist as a business, the people who can run them can be evil, but they aren’t the company (it’s like saying that Putin is Russia itself, or that H!tler was Germany itself back in the 1930s and 40s).
Second of all, not all of Disney’s most recent works are corporate. Two examples in my opinion are the movies Elemental and Wish. Elemental was actually born as a passion project by it’s director Peter Sohn that was based around the story of his life as an American born from East Asian immigrant, and Wish is actually meant to be a metaphor for the Walt Disney Company and the corporatization of it and that the only way the company can thrive is by letting people’s creativity flow (which is a message that this idiot and all the other stupid people who hated the movie don’t realize).
Third of all, Vivziepop is actually an abusive employer. There have been tons of controversies surrounding her and SpindleHorse relating to the animators getting low pay, mean work environments, too high expectations, among many other issues, and these people are jumping to her defense whenever she receives even the slightest of criticism like they’re conservative 14-year-old boys defending Elon Musk: https://www.tumblr.com/thowawayuntilfurthernotice/723985134342307840/meanwhile-in-reality

So yeah, call me a corporate shill if you want, it just doesn’t change the fact that the Disney Hatedom is a cult-like group that’s blindly supported by both sides of the political spectrum that are no better than fucks like Bob Iger and Bob Chapek.

You have to fuck up real bad to have a worse reputation in animation circles than Bob Chapek, but by god I think David Zaslav has risen to the occasion and beyond.
