I just want to point out that this hed suggests Rosie O’Donnell is She-Hulk.
Yeah, it took me a second to process what they actually meant. 😂
canceled it this evening.
This would be so much more impactful, if any of these people still had active projects with Disney. Put your money where your mouth is, or it’s all just performance art for publicity.
I mean this still means they probably wont get any further projects. Burning bridges has an impact for these actors
Why is nothing ever good enough?!
Can we not just appreciate that high-profile people are standing up for what’s right? Are you seriously blaming Tatiana Maslany for not pushing harder for She-Hulk Season 2 just so that she can rally harder against the parent company two years after the show ended?
:SMH:
Perfect is always the enemy of good with these people. They will also always have some bullshit excuse to say everyone is in on it.
Just the other day there was an article on how the congressional Dems have been blocking votes so the GOP changed a rule to be a simple majority instead of 2/3rds. A few dems votes for something and now everyone is being labeled as helping the GOP despite months of blocking.
I know exactly what you mean, have seen it more than I ever wanted to, and just “ugh” every time. This isn’t the proper community to dive any deeper into that topic, so I’ll leave it at that.
Tatiana Maslany has beef with Disney over her show getting cancelled. That puts her motives here in question. For all anyone knows, this is just a cynical ploy to relitigate that slight, in an attempt to leverage the current situation for her own benefit.
Lol, no. Disney won’t hire her again. It’s not good for any career to burn bridges with the biggest companies. She’d have to be very stupid to do it out of spite and I don’t get the impression she’s stupid.
She already burned those bridges with them…that’s my point. Doing this now, does nothing except revoice her old grievances with them. It has literally no impact on their decision making, right now.
The only benefit this has on anyone is Maslany. It gets her name back in the spotlight, and gives her the chance to virtue signal to her fans.
While exacerbating the biggest employer in her industry. Right.
Isn’t that what she’s doing anyway?
Yes, so it comes with personal consequences.
Purity tests aren’t helpful.
Neither is empty virtue signalling.
I’m sure judgmental comments on the internet will surely help us succeed.
Sure. About as much as celebrities with zero actual leverage over Disney will.
How exactly does someone not working for the company get a job with them in less than a week to meet your insane criteria for “valid criticism”? What about all the non-actor’s out here? Are all of us not allowed to say anything either?
If you have a Disney+ account, you can cancel it. That would have an impact on Disney’s policies. If you don’t, then what does your “protest” do to them?
The same thing goes for celebrities with no active projects with Disney. Who fucking cares what they say, if it has no impact in Disney’s bottom line. Disney isn’t going to change their policies, unless there is some reason for them to do so.
Your criteria is absurd and unhelpful.
What…do you think basic public outcry will convince Disney to put Kimmel back on the air? Why not just sign a petition? That should work…right?
Instead of complaining about people doing something resisting fascism, maybe go find people with active projects with Disney and ask them to do something.
