Disney has definitely become like every other video game publisher whose name isn't Nintendo in that if it's not projected to make them all of the money in the world, they don't want to bother. It's damn near their approach to movies now too. TV shows are safe for now since TV shows already can't make all the money in the world, but you have to keep pumping them out unless you want your cable channels to devolve into endless reruns.

At least they're also like every other video game publisher in that they see easy money in rereleasing and occasionally remastering their back catalog.

When was the last time you saw Disney make a game based

I mean, I think that was Infinity? Then they shut the whole thing down and just went back to licensing their properties out.

Wait, they started publishing games again?

Their game department must have a revolving door.

This is rather informative on aspects of entertainment history I never knew about:

I saw a different video that had the same topic! I had no idea. Black teens really identified with Max's case with his dad.

Well, this one goes deeper than that topic (which a LOT of other YouTube videos have covered), going over more historical aspects of African American acting roles in the entertainment industry and how it all related to the conception of Goofy as a character and led up to the relevance of A Goofy Movie.

This is one way to get a seventh Home Alone movie that I did not see coming:

Oh brother. I suppose it was only a matter of time before Disney did the "Tom and Jerry in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory" crap.

Back when Disney bought 20th Century, people were saying it was to get their hands on the distribution rights to Star Wars and the X-Men deal, but at this point I've seen more evidence to support the idea that it was about Home Alone all along.

This looks...cute, at best. I already KNOW that by the end of the special, they'll all be sharing Christmas dinner with those homeless vermin. Not that I'd really expect anything different, but still.

I really wish they'd go back to traditional animation for Mickey. Something more like "Once Upon a Christmas". Or at least try out a different CGI artstyle. I know kids love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, it's been effectively ongoing for two decades now, but some variety would be nice.
