While I’m at peace with “no peace,” that’s a fair assessment.
I know nothing of any basketball, but the movie controversies have gotten me to watch TLM on D+, Cap 4 in the theater (though I could have waited for D+) and will absolutely see Snow White in theaters, which I normally wouldn’t notice.
The first one was magical because it was released in 1937, in much different times. To put that in perspective, it was released 18 years before I was born and I'm 70 this year. Since the movie was released, I was born, my children were born and my grandchildren were born.
What example are you referring to for context?
I agree with your views.
What the heck happened to this thread over the weekend, it blew up!

I think most of my previous comments were in response to people who said the original should not be changed in any way or who took issue with Zegler saying that the movie was going to be updated. I watched the interview and I had no issue with what she said, but then again I don't accord much weight to what celebrities say about anything.
I don't entirely disagree; I just don't think it is that odd for people that age to be VERY opinionated and say things before thinking about what they are saying or more importantly, how they are saying it. Combine that with the relatively recent inability to accept nuance these days and the desire to pile on and you get the situation she is in.
So can I, but she did have a subset of those supporters threatening her so is it all that surprising she was upset? Either way, she did apologize.
Yeah it was definitely a missed opportunity for a better approach.
People many many decades older than her are just as if not more so as opinionated and also say things without thinking.
Different time and place in history.Now step back and think....
What if Annette Funicello, in the 1960 lead up to her starring role in the release of 1961's Walt Disney's Babes in Toyland was quoted in the Los Angeles Times saying;
"May Kennedy supporters and Kennedy voters and John F. Kennedy himself never know peace."
Walt Disney was a notable supporter of Richard Nixon in the 1960 Presidential campaign, but even after Annette was forced to "apologize", I can't imagine that Walt would have ever allowed Annette Funicello to work for his studio and company ever again. Can you?
While I agree I don’t think (or at least hope) most of us have never wished ill will on others simply because we hold different opinions.
but that would be the extent of it, and the next day might like a dozen of your posts while we are on the same side of a different argument.
This gets into the “say things without thinking” category. We’ve all seen many many many people of varying ages all say things off the cuff without thinking in a moment of emotion and later regret and take it back. That incident is no different in my opinion. And I’ve seen much much much worse said over the last 4-8 years by both sides.While I agree I don’t think (or at least hope) most of us have never wished ill will on others simply because we hold different opinions.
That’s the difference for me, I can disagree with you 90% of the time but still respect your opinion and enjoy arguing with you, we could have the most heated argument ever on this forum (and send mom into palpitations and a delete frenzy) and I still wouldn’t wish ill will on you, I might mutter some names about you under my breathe
With that number there is no hope whatsoever for revival of hand drawn animation.
This is one of the primary reasons my social media consists of Facebook and the WDWMagic forums, hard to get in trouble if you aren’t venting every thought online for the whole world to see.
