That’s the big one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hades Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 51 minutes ago, JWR said: Iger never actively pissed off any of the talent and ran a good PR game. Is that supposed to make him better? covering up and running good PR game won't make the internet forget them trying to trademark the day of the dead holiday amongst many other debacles. Didn't even know about the Nimona stuff..guess we know one of the the reasons why Blue Sky studios are dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excel1 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) Nobody is perfect and anyone pretending Iger was anything other than an insanely brilliant and successful CEO is crazy.

I agree almost anybody would not look really good following in Iger's footsteps,abut Chapek has a incredible talent for making enemies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be much harder from them to try to fault LGBTQ merch for pride month because it’s clear this issue will not blow away in a week. Mainly because now the employees are willing to speak out and it’s all because Chapek is such a bad people person. All he needed was to denounce the bill from the getgo and he’d have gotten away with it. All in all it’s a good thing. It won’t be an overnight process as this extends throughout the mouse empire (It also does have me curious on how some things will be handled for Multiverse of Madness and Love and Thunder which comes from golden goose Marvel with LGBTQ main leads) but it’s good that change is beginning to happen. Even without the LGBTA issues, Chapek has made many, many, mistakes and many, many, powerful enemies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are two extremely successful people (especially Iger) who have worked very closely for a while. It is hard to believe that some of this stuff is not exaggerated.
