Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | What a Surprise! New Disney Reboot of an Old LucasFilm IP, Willow, Features a Teen Lesbian Relationship "Front and Center:" "It was just organic," Claims ScreenwriterIt just happened! The Muse just spoke to the writers and producers, and just kept saying: 70% of the world's teenagers are gay, or at least should be!Disney's Willow puts a queer romance front and center -- and it was 'just organic,' says creatorIt's very unsurprising. It's in literally every Disney project aimed at children. It's in Willow, it's in Strange World, it was in Lightyear, it was in Beauty and the Beast, it was in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, it was in Thor: Love and Thunder, it was Star Wars: Rise of the Skywalker. Oh, and Solo, co-written by Jonathan Kasdan and his father, featured a pansexual Lando Calrissian who has sex with an SJW robot. (Strongly implied in the script, and stated outside the film in interviews.) "Organic!" It just happens! The ink just sashays out of the pen, gaily! There would be "pushback" from Disney if there was not gay messaging in a project aimed at children.

I like the original Willow, but it's not exactly some classic.
I'm sure that this Disney will be able to update it and improve it to make the newest iteration into a stone-cold classic and not forgettable trash designed to fill out a content slot with recognizable IP that's actually not that recognizable.

Its sad but predictable.
Willow was a pretty okay movie, it was meh except for Val Kilmer, who makes every movie he's in better. Even that godawful Batman movie would have been worse without him. I was hoping they took that kind of interesting world and went interesting places in it. They even had a front-loaded chosen special one grrl power lead (Willow, the girl) and a set up conflict for her to defeat. But, who trusts Disney to do anything right these days? Nobody.

Here is video obtained by @realchrisrufo of a recent meeting of Disney executives where Latoya Raveneau talks about her “gay agenda” and how that influences the programming she produces for children at the company.

Jonathan Kasdan: There was no pushback. What's interesting is -- I hope and I believe we're at a moment where you're going to see a paradigm shift in that. And hopefully, the way that it's gonna happen is that these kinds of [queer] stories, particularly like this one, that were just organic to the narrative we were telling, find their way in, and it becomes less of a surprising and unusual thing to see.
++++ I believe this. Why would there be pushback, and why wouldn't it be organic and came from the writers naturally? The only kind of people in Hollywood are the kind of people that would do this. "I don't understand how he won! After all, I don't a know single person who voted for him!" is probably true, and this is probably true, too.

Disney is just in the process of ruining every brand it has.
Iger's not going to undo that. When they bought Fox they went to their creatives and said, "Look in the Fox vault and choose the IP that you want to remake." All the creatives are woke and poor writers, so they take something like Home Alone and turn it into nonsense. They take Alien and they turn it into a screed about income inequality (the show is coming to HULU at some point). They didn't have to tell Cameron to make Avatar 2 as leftist unbearable as possible, though. He was already planning on doing that.

Kevin Pollack, though
Yeah, the faeries could have been comfortably deleted and very little of the story needed changing. Would have been better overall. Sadly, they are in the TV show too, apparently. Its a pretty grown up story, with some kid friendly elements, outside of the faeries. They were just obnoxious obviously jammed into the story to appeal to children.

Well... yeah that is true, but in my experience writing, things go a certain way because they feel like they should go that way, based on what you've written so far. I don't buy into the idea that the characters write themselves or somehow outside influences are moving your story, but it sometimes kind of feels that way.

There are too many traditional movie review sites out there to compete with, but I do believe there is a niche market for a movie review site that scores the degeneracy of various movies, be it faggot cowboys, tranny teens or butt-fucking superheroes like Deadpool.
Just review the movies, give it an overall objective score and review, and then also give the reader a breakdown of how much sodomy, lesbo slit licking and faggot clownery is involved so they can decide if they want to go see it or not.

Wyatt Earp (the movie, not our illustrious commenter) is boring. I wanted to love it after having been so lukewarm on Tombstone for so long, but I simply couldn't get into it.
I think it would have worked better as a miniseries, its too long and kind of aimless and without a story (as a bio usually is). I agree that Kasdan's history as a writer and filmmaker is very patchy; he's done some real gems and a lot of pretty lame crap.

Posted by: TheJamesMadison Iger is not a creative type but someone who grew Disney via acquisitions but larding it up with debt. He trusted the creative types to come up with salable merchandise and the amusement parks were a stable income gainer that allowed the creative types to take risks. The problem is that his creative types were batshit crazy, Covid put holes in the amusement park and cruise ship industry, and interest rate increases hit debt laden companies like Disney hard. And now his creative types that he hired and nurtured are killing off the amusement parks by woke shit, interest rates are still likely to climb, and people are now viewing Disney as Groomer Central. The only way for Disney forward is to break up the company now into salable pieces or in bankruptcy later. Posted by: whig at November 30, 2022 04:26 PM (bDjBG) 128

Innocence and so fun to watch with her. After my son was born, we'd buy a different Disney tape each month and had a great time watching them together. We lived near Disneyland at the time and also had many great times there.
I thank God that I am not a parent of young kids today. Prince Charming would be a trans man, Snow White a trans woman, the 7 seven dwarves would be into gay orgies, and the evil Queen/Witch would be a dominatrix. Posted by: Cheri at November 30, 2022 04:28 PM (oiNtH) 152

I see it as a fairly blank canvas with some elements in place to start to build around, which sometimes is better than a super developed world.

134 Lucas looks like a genius for taking Disney to the cleaners when selling Star Wars.
Have they even made that money back? A decade later? Andor is supposed to be pretty good and a direction I really have long wanted Star Wars to go, but nobody is watching. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor --------------------------- The genius behind the first SW movies was the first wife of Lucas and experienced writer Leigh Brackett was responsible for the second movie. The third movie was a step down (no insult intended Chief Ewok) and then Lucas believed himself to be a genius and promptly acted to destroy the franchise but make money off the licensing. Lucas, btw, sold just before an increase in the capital gains tax was to come into effect. All in all, his best work was when others fixed what his deficiencies and Disney has Kathleen Kennedy to destroy and bury the remains of the franchise.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at November 30, 2022 04:30 PM (cP/Ah) --- I would disagree that the world is so restrictive. The writers lacked creativity to work within the prescribed limits.

You could also do a series leading up to the Battle of the Last Alliance when the Rings were already created and active, serving as McGuffins that either help the heroes (Elven Rings), interfere with their plans (Dwarven Rings), or corrupt the leaders (Men).

Question as someone who writes. I do have stories with LGBT characters, but they are secondary characters, and their sexuality is second to the plot, the themes (which are pretty libertarian and conservative), and other parts of their personality and goals. And the stories are for YA or adult, not kids.
Is there an audience for that? Or the second a conservative person reads my story and the sexuality is bright up, will they go "oh this is woke trash" and toss it? Liberals will probably hate the themes so I'm not sure if I can find a traditional publisher. But I don't know if conservatives will be turned off too.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at November 30, 2022 04:26 PM (cP/Ah) It depends. If you take into account marketing, opportunity costs, and other costs, they probably broke even after the film trilogy. Disney+ is taking a bath because the geniuses don't realize that a new series does not necessarily mean new subscribers. Andor would probably have worked had everything else been at least decent. Broadening the SW universe would be good. However, since Disney failed at the core stuff, no one cares about expanding the horizon.

Iger is not a creative type but someone who grew Disney via acquisitions but larding it up with debt. He trusted the creative types to come up with salable merchandise and the amusement parks were a stable income gainer that allowed the creative types to take risks.
The problem is that his creative types were batshit crazy, Covid put holes in the amusement park and cruise ship industry, and interest rate increases hit debt laden companies like Disney hard. And now his creative types that he hired and nurtured are killing off the amusement parks by woke shit, interest rates are still likely to climb, and people are now viewing Disney as Groomer Central. The only way for Disney forward is to break up the company now into salable pieces or in bankruptcy later.

Who is Disney's audience when everyone is gay?
The only kids left will be the trophy ones imported from Botswana or Myanmar so the gay TV or political asshoes can fulfill their real agenda: masking their narcissism by appearing to be so 1950s normative.

Some one on YT was piecing together just how he would have written it - all five seasons - covering the 2500 years or so and it sounded pretty promising. He was talking about blocking it out better and making some new videos on it that I haven't seen. And this is just a random guy.

233 207 Question as someone who writes. I do have stories with LGBT characters, but they are secondary characters, and their sexuality is second to the plot, the themes (which are pretty libertarian and conservative), and other parts of their personality and goals. And the stories are for YA or adult, not kids.
Is there an audience for that? Or the second a conservative person reads my story and the sexuality is bright up, will they go "oh this is woke trash" and toss it? Liberals will probably hate the themes so I'm not sure if I can find a traditional publisher. But I don't know if conservatives will be turned off too. Woke stories are ruining it for other types of stories, in so many ways. Posted by: LizLem at November 30, 2022 04:34 PM (+mkOR) Do you write to sell or to find joy? If it's to sell, you have to find your audience - they won't find you. So, you probably already know the answer to your question. Posted by: Nova local at November 30, 2022 04:42 PM (exHjb) 276
I see it as a fairly blank canvas with some elements in place to start to build around, which sometimes is better than a super developed world. Part of why Rings of Power failed (other than bad writing, plotting, acting, etc) is that the world is so restrictive and laid out that its difficult to create within the limits.
This assumes you have something called writers, which has not been in evidence much of late. A well-developed property at least has a core of fans that one can theoretically build on as an audience. Willow? Not really. I like the movie quite a lot. But it's not a property that has a fan base per se, especially what 40-some-odd years later. (Sadly, the 80s was a long time ago.) If Willow's virtue is that it's so generic that one can do anything with it, why bother with Willow at all? Why not just write your new story?

207 I don’t have standing to speak for all conservatives, but my view is a story that reflects the actual make up of the world wouldn’t offend me. It exists, but it isn’t every single person. It’s when it’s gratuitous or having heterosexual people is shocking where I get bent out of shape, speaking to the age group you are targeting. I don’t think we need books to reflect any of this for children.

There's just too much of it right now. Hinting that someone is that way would probably work. Having it out in the open, no. Plus, if the story is not contemporary, then especially no.

The writers lacked creativity to work within the prescribed limits.
Right, I didn't mean to imply it was impossible to write within the narrow confines of Tolkien's worldbuilding, sometimes that's the most fun as a creator.

305 I think that is about the only way to get any creative product for Disney. Just read something today about how investors (read big hedge funds) want a return on their investments in companies doing streaming. Netflix is making the same gamble by trying to create enough content before they lose licensing rights to a lot of their best earners.

Question as someone who writes. I do have stories with LGBT characters, but they are secondary characters, and their sexuality is second to the plot, the themes (which are pretty libertarian and conservative), and other parts of their personality and goals. And the stories are for YA or adult, not kids.
Is there an audience for that? Or the second a conservative person reads my story and the sexuality is bright up, will they go "oh this is woke trash" and toss it? Liberals will probably hate the themes so I'm not sure if I can find a traditional publisher. But I don't know if conservatives will be turned off too. Woke stories are ruining it for other types of stories, in so many ways. Posted by: LizLem at November 30, 2022 04:34 PM (+mkOR) Does their sexuality progress your story in any way? If not, ditch it.

Iger is not a creative type but someone who grew Disney via acquisitions
== Bob Iger is a fucking weatherman. He came up with the idea to franchise weather reporters, hired a bunch of hot chicks got them boob jobs and cycled them through the LA market and expanded his business and spread it far and wide and parlayed that into other entertainment stuff. People thought him a genius, they bought his company and made it a division, he continued to do well and he parlayed that up the ranks of Disney.

Right, I didn't mean to imply it was impossible to write within the narrow confines of Tolkien's worldbuilding, sometimes that's the most fun as a creator.

Funny, because Matt Walsh and Chris Rufo were declaring victory for DeSantis over Disney yesterday and tweeting out an interview of Iger in which he said he didn't think Disney should be political.
Of course, Walsh and Rufo were too lazy to watch their own clip and missed the part where Iger says he doesn't consider the grooming/LGBT advocacy to be "political" but simply "being a decent human" and promised that it would continue. DeSantis didn't accomplish anything. Disney is even more stridently defiant than ever about grooming children and business is booming at record levels at WDW.

Wyatt Earp was 17 years dead when My Darling Clementine came out
Well, and Wyatt was not above, shall we say, creative storytelling and self aggrandizement. But what he told Ford earlier on was true: what had been written was largely fantasy along the lines of Buntline stories where you told the story you wanted using existing characters and vaguely similar events. The thing is, My Darling Clementine wasn't really like the real thing, either, and Wyatt would have told him so (but cashed the check gladly). Tombstone has its flaws but it is pretty damned close to actual events, even the part where Wyatt runs at an ambush and breaks it up in a suicidal rush. Even his enemies (well, the ones that survived) admitted that had happened. Earp was never shot, not even once in his entire life. Crazy life.

I literally had to push back on a marketing idiot bint today over something similar.
We have a fantastic TikTok marketing campaign, but this sales executive who looks like a 15 year old Taylor Lorenze decided it wasn't ghey enough and we need to have more content targeting LGBT and BIPOC to show how accessible and open the company is because reasons and wokeness and something. My question to her: if you create advertising content that target a small portion of the audience to which only that audience can relate to but the rest find irrelevant, how would this result in more actual sales of our products? her: blank look Posted by: The Unvaxed and Unmasked Ranger - Supporting Endangered Boobies And Gainzzz at November 30, 2022 04:48 PM (VTu1l) 342

My Darling Clementine had Wyatt Earp on set as an advisor.
Wyatt Earp was 17 years dead when My Darling Clementine came out Both of these things are true. Ford had wanted to do this movie for a long time and had Wyatt work with him on the idea. But by the time he was actually able to make the film it was many years later. Part of the reason that Doc Holliday is so wrong in the movie is that out of a desire to make My Darling Clementine, he put a Doc Holliday type in Stagecoach (I mean, literally, it was a southern dentist with a drinking problem and a bad cough who was an incurable romantic). Having done so, Ford felt it would have been repetitive to use the same character again, even so many years later so, we get Victor Mature as Doc Holliday.

There's NO way you're gonna "show" LGBT stuff in a book that conservatives will want to read, so there's no point for it to be there for that audience. If you think your book can appeal to a liberal or moderate audience, then you can go for "show" and keep it in there... But really, most YA is just sick of all the LGBTQXYZ123 anyway...make the characters robots or cats and they'll probably prefer it b/c at least they can move past the "identity and sex" garbage...

Great writer wrote a book on writing. One of the things he used to practice was he read a short story. Then locked it in his desk at work over the weekend. Went home that weekend and tried to re-write it as he remembered it. That process helped him understand the mechanics of story telling. He also said it was interesting to see what he recalled vs what was really in the story. It was how he began to understand "discovery" writing, as someone who was by nature and occupation an engineer.

I know the readers and commenters here cover the spectrum from atheist to evangelical christian and devout Catholic. But I think the following video has something for everyone to think about, at least. A pastor explains the spiritual source of the profligacy and sexual error that our current "culture" now promotes and participates in.
It is instructive when he cites the percentages of ministers who regularly view pornography. What does this have to do with the sexualization of children's entertainment? Spiritually, it's all of a piece. https://tinyurl.com/2khupywa Posted by: kallisto at November 30, 2022 05:00 PM (dCxaZ) 441

It's ok that you're wrong about this.
Don't make me start on an hour-long rant of all that was not just wrong but nearly rape-level violation of Two Towers. It was like they deliberately went out of their way to get everything as wrong as they possibly could. Return of the King was less rapey, but still problematic, and the hour-long ending that couldn't possibly fit in the Scouring of the Shire was just the cherry on top of the sad failure.

Two Towers is a mess of an adaptation. But that's because the splitting of the story into three books initially was arbitrary. Two Towers has no climax, so they tried to manufacture one out of a few paragraphs of the novel, and relegated a good 1/3 of the book to the third film, which was already overflowing with story points.

Two Towers was one of the worst adaptations of anything I have ever seen, even if incredibly beautiful. They got almost every character so wrong it was nearly comical. They violated the storyline. They raped Tolkien's message and themes.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at November 30, 2022 04:59 PM (cP/Ah) Finally, someone who agrees with me on LOTR movies. I probably watched the extended edition of Fellowship 20 times, Two Towers a couple times and the Return of the King once. So many changes that were unnecessary and indicated he, and his wife screenwriter, didn't really get Tolkein. Still, I can see why people liked the films, they were well done, with the occasional plot hole that could have been avoided if he stuck closer to source material, but no worse than the usual contemporary action film. And if you didn't know anything about what was in the book. Posted by: Chuck Martel at November 30, 2022 05:08 PM (fs1hN) 486

Actually that doesn't bother me at all because Tom felt like a jarring part of the story that didn't belong.

The biggest problem with streaming is that there isn't enough interesting or compelling content on one platform so you would need subscriptions to multiple platforms to cobble together enough content to watch, and that is going to be prohibitively expensive.
It's far cheaper to stand up a Plex server and liberate all of the content you want by any means necessary. Posted by: Thomas Bender at November 30, 2022 05:10 PM (up/3i) 497

I thought Carrie Fisher was really pretty in the Star Wars movies. Not Gene Tierny pretty, but who is? And she looked plenty hot in that gold bikini.
What cracks me up is that Leia was strong and dangerous and capable all by herself 40 years before Hollywood decided their new movies are the only strong female characters. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at November 30, 2022 05:14 PM (cP/Ah) 527

I recently watched the School of Good nd Evil on Netflix. What a waste of time. Loosely based on fairy tales like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty but the heroine foregoes the Prince for her besty girlfriend whose kiss saves her. It was just disgusting. And evil kind of won too. Eveything is forgiven as long as you are an lgbtq. What kind of lesson is that?

The crap that passes a advertising on YT is the same. Said to Spouse Flyover this past weekend: according to all these ads, I'm not the target demographic for any of these products. I am very happy to oblige them by not buying any of it.
****************** marketing consists of 99% women and .05% soyboys, who are never challenged on their woke stupidity except for old cantankerous angry farts like me. They feel like they have to pander to the "current" thing and a company has to show how enlightened it is in giving back to the community and saving mother earth etc, otherwise nobody will buy their stuff. I say the obvious: nobody gives a horse's fuck about a company's social virtues. it comes down to do they offer a useful product; and does that product serve the consumer's specific needs? Then advertise that, and shut the fuck up about everything else. I had to say this to my own former dermatologist, who puts a We Support Ukraine piece on his website. Im like, if I have a mole that needs to be checked out why in the blue fucking hell do I care whether you support Ukraine or not? Are you retarded?

You've never seen the deleted scenes from part 1. It's clear that Cameron had a sequel in mind, and all the setup for it is in those scenes.
Given that II is largely a "now I have the budget I wanted" remake of I, I'm skeptical. But I thought III wrapped all of it up in a bow: no matter what you try or how you work to change things, you cannot really change the future. It just works out slightly differently.

86 There are too many traditional movie review sites out there to compete with, but I do believe there is a niche market for a movie review site that scores the degeneracy of various movies, be it faggot cowboys, tranny teens or butt-fucking superheroes like Deadpool.
Just review the movies, give it an overall objective score and review, and then also give the reader a breakdown of how much sodomy, lesbo slit licking and faggot clownery is involved so they can decide if they want to go see it or not.

I've been considering saving up my Microsoft Rewards gift cards for a region free UHD player (UHDs are by definition region free, but I just don't want another Blu-ray player on top of my UHD player, it's a space thing) and they cost about $400.
Of course, if I did that, I would buy just so many more movies. I could get Zardoz for less than $150! Posted by: TheJamesMadison British TV rarely requires UHD (George Gently series is one exception) so combining a cheap small dvd player plus an upscaling HD tv works quite well. I have noticed some issues with upscaling fast action from some really old series like the b&w BBC Robin Hood from the 50's both overall I am pretty pleased. On computers and electronics, I usually stay about 3 yrs or so behind current tech as the sweet spot of cost and benefit. Posted by: whig at November 30, 2022 05:19 PM (bDjBG) 555
"you guys are really invested in this lord of the rings stuff, huh"
"Culture is Upstream from Politics" .. OK, accepting that premise, it is cool that so much of culture is Hollywood and MSM driven. So knowing all those detail of every leftist fairy tale is good, for keeping in touch with Leftist Controlled "culture". But it may be that just staying away and being well read on more standard Western culture history/literature ... would be a better course? Or maybe some can do it all and remain Christian and virtuous? idk ... the Amish might have a point in trying to stay separate, but some more moderate approach to moderating the levels of full immersion into Leftist Driven Culture ... might also have its place.
