Buddy, you’re the one getting mad that Disney rounded up a group of Star Wars fans, surprised them with Pedro Pascal and then told people they surprised fans with Pedro Pascal

Look at these 3 fruits.

Imagine being a ‘man’ and acting like this.

Has all the authenticity of the rings of power “super fans“ promotional videos. Turns out exactly none of them followed up with any positive videos on their channels. Gee, I wonder why.

They arent men. They are "influencers".

are they not fans?


That is the question to be asked. Amazon did this to promote Rings of Power. Brought in influencers to pretend they were super fans and afterwards found out most knew nothing of Tolkien to LOTR.

No one was surprised.

Not even a little bit.

I think it was in 3rd grade that it dawned on me Ms. Johnson was PAID to teach us because it was her JOB!

This thread is absolutely an entertaining read.

The photo in the OP is a very obviously staged PR photo. Marketing 101. And Disney is somehow "under fire" for this? Under fire in what way? Did one or two people bitch about it on social media or something? Oh no.

This is completely fabricated outrage for "content," just like the original staged PR photo was for "content." Nothing matters anymore except for content, and that sucks.

Side note: If I was at Disney and Pedro Pascal was there, I'd be glad that he was attracting fans to him so I could maybe ride the damn SW rides faster. I have very little interest in celebrities in person.

Allow me to reintroduce you to another promo piece, again from Disney Star Wars.



These people have learned nothing.

This trash was laughed off the internet, removed by Disney ( but thankfully saved by others) to be laughed and mocked for all to enjoy.

Pedro Pascal being a "star" is another example of how far Hollywood has fallen

Proximo may be patient zero for Disney Derangement Syndrome.

That is, unless Kaiju has already claimed that title.
