Disney is seeking original IPs to win back Gen-Z Men amid Marvel and Lucasfilm Struggles

Millennials y’all at fault too, for being one of many reasons. Why 
Treasure Planet, Atlantis, and The Emperor's New Groove flopped.
They really need to depict the hero's journey in TV shows and films in a way that resonates with Gen Z males, especially those who read a lot of shonen manga. Much of the manga that young Gen Z males enjoy is centered around the hero's journey. I'm not sure why big film and TV studios are having such a hard time creating stories based on this concept.
Because it’s for literal children you spastic
Thank god I was raised to go tf outside

Hercules and Aladdin were for children too.
Yeah
And I liked those too
When I was 10.
And then I realized there was other forms, styles of entertainment and stories and moved on from it.
Did you watch miles Morales?
Just make some cool animated action/action adventure movies with male leads. It's really that simple.
Just gonna copy paste from the other thread:
It's really not hard to acknowledge if you ain't afraid of nikkas saying you hate women
especially with blatant they've gotten with the anti male shyt
For Disney to finally admit this means shyt has gotten bad
I don't think they expected F4 to do as bad as it did
The tone deafness is hilarious tho. "We ran Marvel and Star Wars into the ground, now we're looking for new franchises to destroy"
Regardless, unless Disney acknowledges and fixes their anti male tactics, which they won't, nothing is gonna change. It's over

Specifying Gen Z is not even really necessary. Males have like the exact same stories for thousands of years. Disney had boys and men with the MCU then threw it all awayThey really need to depict the hero's journey in TV shows and films in a way that resonates with Gen Z males, especially those who read a lot of shonen manga.

They're having a hard time because they want to keep males while simultaneously shytting on them
I put it on for my younger cousins. The art style was cool. Never heard of Miles Morales before I even saw the trailer
Black Panther was the last one I really care about

This is such a petty and bytchy sentiment that doesn’t hold up to any scrutiny, let alone trends relating to comic book properties and this type of entertainment.Dude really thinks that cause IP’s that are approaching 60+ years in the public eye are “destroyed” because of one off TV shows
Cause the early 90’s when they were literally put together with scotch tape and Elmer’s glue didn’t “destroy” them, neither is any iteration from here on out
I can tell this bozo watches all those 40-50+ cacs whine about “wokeness” in media from shows they don’t actually watch or force themselves to not pick and blow out of proportion

The problem with wanting to be a shaper of culture in a hyper-connected world is that you run out of schemes you can use very, very quickly.

HE SAID GEN Z MEN
Well then forget it. They are already playing to their base 
The problem they have is they had franchises for boys and men, but they took that audience for granted and tried to "expand" by attempting to cater to women in those franchises. They did it with Star Wars, Marvel, and decades earlier Cars.
They have tens of franchises aimed squarely at girls/women, and those are extremely successful. But that wasnt enough, they had to try and get the girls into the male focused franchises as well and ended up trashing them.
The thing about males is you need the right material, AND IT HAS TO BE GOOD. Men dont like wasting money on bullshyt. So once we see the quality has dropped we not paying all that money to hit the theater. Disney fukked up twofold because they tried to cater to women and they product was trash. So men bounced hard!

Guys being dudes: the series.
And I'm serious. Just have some dudes doing cool stuff and have them get girls. Current popular streamers have the template (RDC, Kai, Duke, iShowSpeed) just amplify it. It's that simple.
