Even if you don’t agree with her, she is far from inarticulate.
Perhaps unrealistic would be a fairer characterisation? Disney is hardly going to reshoot an essentially complete film, especially now that the offending posts have been apologised for. We all know this, so I’m not sure what sense there is in wishing for the impossible.

I saw a comment today on a news article about how her apology never actually apologized, she simply said she was sorry about the post she shared and sorry that she contributed to the negative discourse…

Essentially saying I still mean what I said but I’m sorry it offended you so please come see my movies still. A non-apology apology.

I agree they aren’t going to modify SW again, I think they’re just going to release it and recoup whatever they can before letting it fade into obscurity.

It’s kind of funny because Disney has always been progressive and inclusive in nature, but as in all forms of entertainment there are hits and misses.
Come on ... this is borderline absurd.

Just a reminder that they made a cartoon about reproduction and showed it in the 80’s in Epcot. The concerns about what is right for children seems to be winding back 50 years. Nothing Disney has done the last few years would technically compare as boundary pushing.

You think that video was boundry pushing? At the time, (late 1980s, early 1990s) we watched videos like that in junior high school health class. There was nothing controversial or progressive about the Wonders of Life (or EPCOT Center as a whole). This was 1990, not 1950. ABC used to run programming like this on TV all the time - they called them Afterschool Specials.



EDIT:
ABC Afterschool Special - "My Mom is Having a Baby" (1977)

Although I don't entirely agree (the Reimagine Disney department was fairly clear about its goals before Iger muzzled them), you just made my point.

Just to clarify, does anyone think this information is wrong for children?
