hey

Disney is still making money, whether you go because you want to genuinely see it or you go because you want to see how much you hate it.

Disney recieves all its messages in money. If Lion King flops, they’ll stop making these shitty remakes. Please, for the love of our childhoods, don’t go see this movie as a joke.

these movies are not simple cashgrabs

theyre specifically made for copyright laws to keep their stories and characters from becoming public domain.

dont see the movies duh they suck but theyre not simple cash grabs riding nostaligia and only that, theyre specifically saving their own asses from having to give up their precious characters to the public domain. disney has a lot of money lobbying for harsher copyright and making copyright indefinite, and they have had some copyright guidelines legally changed to suit them.

Bill Nye now:

I’ve had a few conversations with people recently about the fandom - how it feels like conversations have died out, fanworks aren’t circulating the same way they used to, and how it’s a shame that there’s no real central hub of fandom conversation anymore – not the way LJ communities and mailing lists used to bring everyone to the same location. 

The lack of new material’s also obviously an issue, but new people are finding the series all the time. 

Tumblr’s not set up for it, and most people aren’t looking to add more social media networks to their daily lives, so I won’t bother proposing slack channels or dreamwidth communities, but I figure it’s worth sending a post around to try and make connections. 

So if you consider yourself a Young Avengers / New Avengers / Kate-Hawkeye / America Chavez fan (have I missed any books?), hit like or reblog.
