Fuck Disney - Blog Posts

I know the episode would have made headlines anyways given the current climate around trans people, but it's funny how by disney attempting to shelve the episode, they ended up streisanding themselves and thus, the episode got way more traction cause of it.

Just watched the banned Moon Girl episode.

>the episode addresses the topic of trans kids in sports >the entire episode is about how bigots will always move the goalpost, and playing by their rules is pointless >the solution is not to play their game and break the rules >it also states that trans people should never feel like a burden >the character Brooklyn is explicitly stated to be trans >there is also an explicitly nonbinary character >multiple mentions of pride and depictions of pride flags, trans flags and progress flags

I'm not at all surprised this didn't get past the censors but I'm so mad that it didn't, because this could've been something really special, and the fact it was canned after being fully finished is downright painful. This episode was wonderful and I'm grateful to all the people who worked on it, and angry that their hard work was wasted. Disney did not deserve you.

Here's a link, as long as Disney doesn't take it down

The whole world needs to see this!

In honor of Pride next month, can we all try to get #fuck disney trending? They have fucked over LGBTQ creators far too many times for us to give them any credit for queer representation. Take The Owl House, for instance. It's the best example of queer rep I've seen yet. The main character is bi and has a lesbian love interest, and they have a whole romance. There's gay couple after gay couple. There's a non-binary character whose pronouns are respected by everyone. An aroace character. The whole thing is normalized. And you know what disney did? They tried to shut it down halfway through the second season. Dana Terrace and the crew had to fight way too hard to finish season two, and even then, disney wouldn't allow a full third season. We're lucky we get the shortened season 3. Disney has disrespected and fucked over Dana and the crew, and now, they're going to turn right around and parade how this show means they're allies to the LGBTQ+ community and how "There's room for everyone under the rainbow!" It's an insult. So, in honor of Pride Month, don't support disney. Unsubcribe from whatever subscriptions you may have. Pirate as many of their things as you can. Don't buy their official merchandise, buy from small creators on Etsy. And whenever you make a post even slightly relating to disney, add the tag #fuck disney. Or #fuck the mouse, #fuck disney execs, #fuck Bob Chapek. And not just on tumblr- do it on any and every site you can. Twitter, tik tok, Instagram, Facebook, snapchat, everywhere. Share the tag and the reasoning with your friends, family, whatever. Spread the word. Happy early Pride.

Ignoring the blatant transphobia, imagine putting time and effort into the animation, voice acting, music, coloring, editing, storyboarding and everything else all for Disney to go "Erm nope, sorry we need to keep the bigots happy or we won't sell as many Mickey mouse ears. Byeee."

Fucking infuriating.

Next Pride Month I'ma need everyone to spam the shit out of Disney's replies with the banned episode of Moon Girl when they try to act like they actually give a fuck about gay people.

this is really hard to read, but it's true. Disney has sucked the soul out of the muppets. the performers have been trying to put it back, but every time they do they are thwarted by this stupid fucking corporation. fuck you disney

Screenshot of selected excerpts from an Interview between Frank Oz and The Guardian that reads :

Frank Oz, the legendary co-creator of the Muppet Show and Sesame Street characters, has not worked on either show since 2007, nearly 14 years ago. “I’d love to do the Muppets again but Disney doesn’t want me, and Sesame Street hasn’t asked me” The 77 year old told the Guardian. “They don’t want me because I won’t follow orders and I won’t do the kind of Muppets they believe in”.

“The soul’d not there” anymore, he admitted. “The soul is what makes things grow and be funny. But I miss them and love them.”

“There’s an inability for corporate America to understand the value of something they bought.” He explained. “They never understood, with us, it’s not just about the puppets, it’s about the performers who love each other and have worked together for many years.”

“Eisner was trying to get Sesame Street, too, which Jim wouldn’t allow,” he recalled, “but Jim was not a dealer, he was an artist, and it was destroying him, it really was. The Disney deal is probably what killed Jim. It made him sick.”

When Frank Oz spoke of Jim Henson, it was like they had convinced themselves that they were actually brothers. In The Guardian feature, he said that he has lived in New York since he was 19. “Ever since Jim asked me to come here to work with him on The Muppets.” He has often described himself as the real Fozzie Bear to Jim Henson’s Kermit the Frog. 

“People don’t understand, anyone can do a voice”, he said. “It’s not the voice — it’s the soul”

this makes me want to throw up and cry and scream and punch a wall

Real quick, if Johnny Depp doesn't appear in the new POTC films, I hope they fail spectacularly. Fuck you, Disney!
