Disney owning Star Wars is weird

What sort of mind games are they playing with us by having Star Wars as the forefront of thought.

Disney has always had a boner for sorcery.

Makes sense...NK is the 2nd happiest place on Earth.

Soon they may also own all of 20th Century Fox except for Fox News and Fox Business...because media consolidation, yay!

Why do you think that's playing mind games? They are just trying to make tons and tons and tons and tons of money.
1 throwawaymnmnmn 2017-11-07
they're basically setting uo a few things in our head
space war space enemies heroes villains
its just a weird timing to purchase as well as make AVATAR land.
also yes money and toys

comparitively I'd say it is as weird as when Michael Jackson owned all the Beatles music he did not write....some forms of theft are legal unfortunately
1 throwawaymnmnmn 2017-11-07
reminds me of the throwaway idea that Disney owns nk!! lol

I like this offtopic.... How rich as fuck does one have to be to buy the whole fucking Beatles catalog!?
1 Abe_Vigoda 2017-11-07
You make it seem like Michael Jackson was the bad guy for buying the Beatles catalog. Paul McCartney was the one who gave him the idea then got pissed off when he actually did it.
Since this is /r/conspiracy you should watch this video about his death.
Some backstory:
Michael Jackson hated Sony and especially Tommy Motola.
Watch this video where he calls him the devil.
Apparently MJ played Sony and owned 50% of their music catalog. He used a bunch of shell companies to buy up their stock and gain controlling shares.
After he died, MJ's doctor only got less than a year in jail I believe.
Sony is one of the big 3 major music labels in the US. Their catalog is worth billions but MJ's family sold it back to them for $750 million after he died.

Owning North Korea is even weirder

Sickening how StarWars is the new Christmas.
Everything is either star wars or christmas themed..its awful.
1 its_spelled_Hawaiian 2017-11-07
Our staff theme for Halloween this year was Star wars 😣

I hope you went as Ronald Reagan.

Top notch idea
1 kanye5150 2017-11-07
Destruction of Heroes (Han Solo's death)
Make Evil Sexy (More Attractive Villains)
Advance Feminist Agenda (Ray is a jedi in 10 mins)
Blah blah blah black stormtroopers etc.
:p
1 throwawaymnmnmn 2017-11-07
feminist agenda is a given for toys to be produced
1 stone_llama 2017-11-07
But no one is buying the new toys! People are buying darth vader and Chewbacca!
1 kanye5150 2017-11-07
Funny I think I just saw the first wonder woman 70s tv show yesterday and she basically came from an entire island (Paradise Island) full of hot babes in little skimpy teddys. Boy would that show not fly today. Ha.
1 Abe_Vigoda 2017-11-07
Disney owns Marvel too.
Now that you mention it, the new Thor kind of fits your formula.
Destruction of Heroes - check. I'm not going to give spoilers.
Make evil sexy - check. The bad guy chick is all leathered up.
Advance feminist agenda...
Kind of, I guess. The Valkyrie chick is pretty badass but she is a fairly stereotypical 'feminist' character.
Black stormtroopers...
I always thought it was funny that in Asgaard the only black guy was the doorman.
1 FrankieVallie 2017-11-07
Lol the bad chick is leathered up? Like they have been in movies forever?
1 MajesticChazwazzer 2017-11-07
Not in GI Joe... Oh, wait, The baroness...
1 MajesticChazwazzer 2017-11-07
Aren't you a little colored to be a stormtrooper?

The Disney touch ~ Star Wars The Force Awakens was an absolute abortion.
1 nisaaru 2017-11-07
As bad as Lucas last SW were there was a political depth to them. The Disney "version" is beyond awful. Outside of effects there is nothing redeemable there whatsoever.
1 TinKnockinMoroccan 2017-11-07
Watch the RedLetterMedia videos mocking the new star wars movies.
There is no conspiracy here. Disney bought the franchise and is going to make 900 mediocre films based on shit from the original trilogy.
1 Abe_Vigoda 2017-11-07
It's no real big conspiracy. Disney saw an advantageous franchise for sale and marketed the living shit out of it once they got it. Nothing they do is for the sake of art or entertainment, it's all about profit so they pander to the markets that buy the most stuff.
1 Turpekal_Thrizz 2017-11-07
its all about money, bro. they dont need any other reason. they own a cash cow that they can milk for decades if not eternity. btw, disney has sucked for the previous few decades, i hate them, but there is no conspiracy except for the neo liberal social marxist undertones of the force awakens. that is mostly just pandering to the status quo though.
1 MuchoLoco 2017-11-07
Not only that but the fact that most mainstream rappers are coming out with songs with Star Wars lyrics that never have before
Ex: earth Vader 21 savage migos
And plenty of others but that’s just the one off top. I wish I could remember more to make my post sound credible I’ll come back and edit later.
Also your post was censored.
