Wasn't Maleficent technically still a retelling of Sleeping Beauty, just in a "nooooooooooo, what you saw in the original movie was a LIE, this is the REAL story!" sort of way? Wasn't one of the taglines "You know the tale, now find out the truth"?
I was actually thinking about why I was saving these kinds of niche things, such as food packaging last night. I don’t exactly remember why I saved these things, but my theory is it is likely because they were the only things I could afford to bring home with me from the parks. My mom started letting my sister and I go to the parks alone when we were around maybe 11 or 12. Our admission was always free because my uncle would sign us in or just give us passes. We were only given enough money for food.
This is legitimately great artwork.
I agree. It didn’t need Ronnie McDonald popping in, but other than that, I think the design is really cool and creative.
I forgot how they used to actually have a live action Ronald as their mascot up until the Super Size Me documentary.
Now that I’m thinking about it… Has Ronald McDonald completely disappeared from McDonald’s advertising?? I can’t remember a single recent McDonald’s commercial or billboard featuring him.
I guess I don't have cable but I remember seeing him less after the super size me and health craze era that followed.

I didn't listen to all of this, but the first couple of calls (at the 25 minute mark) sounded reminiscent of the people that attended virtual school board meetings across the country in the last couple of years. In the case of the school board meetings, they weren't parents from the district, just people with a particular agenda to push forward, that took advantage of Zoom to attend meetings they wouldn't be able to attend normally. Anyway, do we know if these callers are legit? Or is it more of a "professional protestor" kind-of thing? We'll probably never know. Anyway, that's just how these sounded to my cynical ears.Did anyone listen to the shareholder meeting yesterday? Investors were openly asking Iger about how the company is quantity over quality, shouldn't be involved with politics, how Walt wouldn't approve of cooperation/slave labor in communist China, how the company has lost the trust of parents and families, how they should just license content instead of pouring money into Disney Plus.
It was brutal. Iger of course had corporate nonanswers for everything but whoever screened these calls is likely getting fired. It was basically an hour of Iger getting roasted live.
I've never seen a shareholder meeting like this.
Looking forward to the Disney Wars style book to be written about the Bobs' era.
Interesting parts start at 25 minutes in and do not let up.

He's still there in their commercials.
The callers are shareholders that are supposed to be screened and ask questions about their investment. The fact the majority of them went on to roast Iger is very reflective of the state of the company and their investors.

It's so two-faced that the company of goodness, care, and inclusion are scared to release transparency reports.
