Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | As Snow Woke Crashes and Burns, Hollywood Scrambles to Cancel Woke Projects In "Crisis Mode Panic"Snow Woke opened beneath expectations, and lost 66% in its second weekend from its weak opening. It fell so far, in fact, that the unthinkable happened. They had consoled themselves with the idea that because this past weekend featured no major releases, they would at least keep the #1 spot. In fact, the non-woke Jason Statham took the #1 spot.For years and years, we've wondered, When will the left get the message? When will the media finally get the message? The disaster of Snow Woke may have been the message that finally got through to them. Rachel Zegler's Snow White flop sparks anti-woke U-turn: Hollywood whistleblowers reveal how trans actors and liberal films are being dumped in 'crisis mode' panic By CAROLINE GRAHAM FOR DAILYMAIL.COM ... More than a dozen Hollywood insiders ranging from an Oscar-nominated producer to the writer of one of the most successful TV shows ever have spoken exclusively to the Daily Mail about an industry in 'crisis mode.' 'When the #MeToo [in late 2017] and George Floyd protests [May 2020] happened, every studio in town jumped on the woke bandwagon,' a Disney insider says. 'Five years on,' he adds, 'everyone is desperately trying to save themselves and Hollywood. You can't underestimate the fear behind closed doors. This feels like a battle for survival.'I'm rooting for mass casualties. Has Hollywood finally realized the search for "The Modern Audience" is an expensive and futile snipe hunt? The article quotes several older white writers and producers stating that they were brought in as secret employees on troubled minority-heavy productions. But then they made those writers and producers keep secret about the White Taint they brought to these projects. A&E is bringing back Duck Dynasty, which the liberal executives hated, and Cops-like show called Live PD is coming back, too -- after it had been cancelled in the post-George-Floyd anti-cop panic. Trump's The Apprentice is on the charts for the most-streamed series. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

I have an active imagination, so I'll tell you why they are so agitated in all media genres (not just film).
It had been assumed that as soon as the Left secured all branches of government, funding (open and significant) would be provided to media outlets, Film companies, "fact" checkers, and critics. This was already being done for entities like Politico through more covert means (USAID). Enter the Terminator and DOGE. The entire apparatus for covert funding is being disabled. I'm sure there were plans to process these funds to the CNN's, ABC's, Paramounts, Sony's etc. But, now the focus is on stopping this type of behavior. That leaves the media entities with having to appeal to their actual consumer. If you'd like to see what the Left in the US hopes to achieve...just glance to America's hat....Canada. All media is in the pot for the Liberals, and not just the news. Posted by: Orson at March 31, 2025 05:06 PM (dIske) 39
'When woke first came in it was about the bottom line,' the producer explains. 'Studios thought going woke would attract a new, younger audience and make them money - but all it did was piss everyone off.' =============== I can't get over this load of BS. I mean, someone was BS-ing when they told decision-makers that woke=money. A drop of marketing research would have revealed this. And then they went woke and it pissed everyone off. Did they stop? Did they reverse course? Did they step back, debrief, do a lessons-learned? Nope, they kept pissing everyone off. Again and again and again. Internal BS, external BS, and it was all fixable from the start. Posted by: Blonde Morticia at March 31, 2025 05:06 PM (lCaJd) 40
Even better, a standard Statham action flick is probably going to beat "Snow Woke" at the box office. And it probably has less than half the budget.

Amazon also just fired the head of their studio. From UK Daily Mail:
"Former Amazon MGM boss Jennifer Salke was fired over a slew of excruciating and expensive A-List disasters, it is claimed. Salke, whose ouster was announced in an internal memo obtained by Deadline Thursday, had been on borrowed time after a series of flops and failed hires, sources told Puck. They singled out her with work with Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the creator of Fleabag, in particular, after she received not one, but two $20million deals over the course of six years. The first three year deal yielded no output - but Salke gave Waller-Bridge a second $20 million deal regardless. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power - another show ravaged under Salke's tenure - left one 'Amazon source' marveling how she managed to last this long. Amazon spent a quarter-of-a-billion on the Rings rights, as well as a hundred million more for Season 1 alone."

The Lefty shill sites are quieter about Snow White than I expected, although Bounding Into Comics has this odd article:
‘Snow White’ Star Gal Gadot Says She Is Apolitical After “Advocating” For Israelis Taken Hostage By Hamas: “Who Cares About The Celebrity Talking About Politics? I’m An Artist. I Want To Entertain People.” As an Israeli actress, Gal Gadot is uniquely positioned to be a diplomat for her people much like Wonder Woman is for Themyscira. The thing is the duty is thrust upon her as of late by tragic circumstances, which also parallels the hero’s journey of Diana Prince. The events of October 7th, 2023, resulted in an ongoing hostage crisis and a renewed focus on Gaza. (weird how they aren't more clear on what exactly occurred- Liaison) People in Hollywood are picking sides with most, including Gadot’s Snow White co-star Rachel Zegler, choosing Palestine quite publicly. While Snow White is bombing abysmally, Gal Gadot received a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame this month in a ceremony disrupted by a pro-Palestinian protest...

The second season was weird with a lot more DRAMA. Funny but tiresome, even then. I still remember them airing these "extended boardrooms" which was like 20 extra minutes of these strange narcissist harpies bitching at each other. Don't remember much after that except a cutie named Kendra who I think was on season 3. If you want an actual entertaining show, dig up the UK Apprentice starting around Season 3 or 4.

Snow White was a flop in the making from the get go. It's star wasn't white and turned out to be a condescending , woke , little snot. The removal of actual dwarves pissed off everyone including dwarf actors, f u Dinklage. The first photos of the seven hobos was a laugh riot. Then the clash of Gadot and Zegler and the decline of woke doomed this thing . Cue MAGA Nelson Muntz

71 I've been watching Elementary and now on the final season which has definitely fallen off although still entertaining. I used to frequently watch movies but lately can't manage to get past the first 15 minutes without getting bored.
Ilike Statham but when they try to add some kind of romance to the movie, he just doesn't cut it as a James Bond type. The race swapping in Adolescence has finally convinced me I don't need Netflix even at $16/mo.

The last season of Elementary only has 13 episodes. What is just astounding to me is that they can tell a complete story in 45 minutes. So used to mini series where it takes 8-10 episodes.
A great series I watched is Troppo. Fascinating story in exotic place with great acting. The Tourist, made in Australia. Really excellent mystery.

Get Elon Musk on the horn with all of these Old White Males (OWMs?). Get their details, the projects they worked on, what they did, and which ones weren't credited for their work.
The various syndicates in Hollywood and other media, called by the more friendly "Guild" and "Association" terms, have a stranglehold on a lot of work. If you don't hire from their Union, you CANNOT hire from their Union. It's all or nothing. If Disney hired and used uncredited writers on their work, both on TV and in cinema, that probably would fall afoul of union contracts. Put out the information publicly. Follow up with the guilds for their response. Are they going to let it slide, with the risk of fracturing the guild because it's not defending its members? Or will they hit hard on Disney and the like, because their own breadbasket will be at risk? Posted by: Another Anon at March 31, 2025 05:30 PM (wK3f3) 139

He could have up-and-coming MAGA skull crackers do crazy competitions to carry out his directives. Like maybe one week, it's trapping illegals, but also seeing whose team's detainees can make the most taco bowls. That sort of thing.

Posted by: Smell the Glove at March 31, 2025 *** The pilot, yes. The story goes that they visited the set of Man From U.N.C.L.E. during the first season to get ideas to parody. That sequence where Max strides through a series of security gates and walls parodied the intro shown for the first six eps of MfU, where Solo and Illya come into headquarters while a voiceover tells us where they are.

But it's a mystery how the invisible hand of capitalism just stopped moving.
Posted by: Blonde Morticia ----------- I think it was about money -- The globohomo leaders (blackrock, et al) who work the boards set up incentive structures for the executives. They were paid bonuses for meeting certain metrics and those metrics were not based on box office but on being woke. So the executives and those under them were driven by money. The board was driven by money. What was blackrock driven by? Possibly the goal was to destroy value and buy on the dip? I don't know. They make money based on turmoil, especially when they control the chaos. Stability dives profits to zero (perfect information and all) so they tend to hate stability...

Mrs. Wrecks was griping about Trump and Musk last night. She challenged, "Name one thing Musk has ever done to help anyone." I said he rescued the astronauts abandoned by Biden. She dismissed this as something he did for PR purposes. Here's a couple who might disagree.

apparently Snow White is really communist and girl boss, Posted by: Christopher R Taylor =============== The kingdom is happy because everyone shares everything, like in the failed colonial Jamestown experiment except it hasn't failed yet. The queen dies even though there's supposedly single-payer healthcare, and the wise and socialist king marries a bitch who kills him. The populace, formerly all the New Man, become police. Snow White runs away, rallies a handful of elves and merry men, and leads them back to burn the queen's Tesla with her in it. The police defund themselves. The end.

this was never about genuinely helping minorities
_______________ Bugger minorities. It's about time they helped themselves: study at school, graduate from high school, don't get involved in gangs, don't get a criminal record, don't have a bunch of kids out of wedlock, keep your nose clean, your mouth shut, and become a reliable worker. Then you won't NEED help, which no one should provide in any case. Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at March 31, 2025 06:07 PM (YqDXo) 268
That new stupid Doomsday bullshit Dr Doom movie? It's the "Expendables" of Marvel. loaded with hollywood celeries jerking each other off, led by Robert Downey who is getting paid $80M for pretending to be a shitty Dr Doom.
its going to be a rip off of Crisis on Infinite Earths, its gonna have something destroying the alternate reality that Doom takes control over, and each multiverse will have their characters given a small scene (member? You member!!) finally combining several worlds into one. That's my prediction. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at March 31, 2025 06:07 PM (ecJ7k) 269

"recently removed a transgender character."
Wow this is going to be rough for them. They have so many blind spots. And their special political power is too anger people who didn't care into becoming mortal enemies. What kind of short circuit in the brain compels people to demand that you respect how they define themselves (she/her) while simultaneously denying you the ability to define yourself (woman not ciswoman). I thought they taught this in kindergarten - Bobby will let you borrow the if you let him borrow the tank. Posted by: Fen at April 01, 2025 05:05 AM (c5hJL) 275
"Something breaks, DEI must be called to fix it first, then the white guys have to come in and fix it for real, all at great expense."
Is that what's really going on? Damn that has to suck. You're promoted because of your race only to spotlight your race through failure. Bet it feels like a setup. I remember getting 4.9 4.9 pro cons once. Woof. I was usually a 4.6 4.7. And I knew I didn't deserve these. Worse, so did all the other NCOs. 4.8s would have been fine. 4.9s put a target on my back. I think the Captain was trying to send a message that perfect scores were a reality not an ideal. Or maybe wanted me to pull my head out of my ass. I was certainly more alert to everything trying to live up to those 4.9s Posted by: Fen at April 01, 2025 05:26 AM (c5hJL) Processing 0.04, elapsed 0.0502 seconds. |
