Wish will go down in history as the absolute low-point (being optimistic that things will get better from here) in Disney's disastrous first half of the 2020's. A forced turning point, if you will. The nadir.
What's sad, and what won't go away, is that this was Disney's special
100th Anniversary! movie.
Wish got all the production money it wanted, all the marketing they could muster, all the manufactured hype and buzz starting several years in advance from the biggest entertainment synergy company on the planet. At a time when parents around the globe were yearning for movies to take their kids to. And yet it was a giant flop.
Did anyone get canned for that financial and box office and pop-cultural disaster? And if not, why not?
