So after the decades of High Disney Art, we’re back to the Son of Flubber era. Only this looks like they poured a lot of money — and only money — into it. I was loath to badtalk this because I didn’t want to sound like the online chuds crowing Go Woke Go Choke, but this is the most corporate, lifeless attempt at “art” I’ve ever seen.
Sounds like this Wish came from a cursed monkeys paw... Maybe some day we'll see the movie of how it originated! Happy holidays and thank you for seeing these movies so we don't have to and also making them entertaining through your reviews.
I haven't seen this, and probably won't (my kids might), but in November I was on a family vacation in London. We were heading to a Weatherspoons for breakfast when we saw a bunch of guys with cameras and some construction was going on for an event (I assumed it was something Christmas-themed at the time). It never dawned on me that the camera guys were paparazzi. My son and I entered the restaurant but my wife and daughter were a few steps behind. They told me before they entered, some woman got out of a car and the paparazzi were going nuts. They didn't know who the woman was, though.
Turns out, it was Ariana DeBose - they looked it up while we ate. And the construction was nearly done when we walked out of the restaurant - it was a red carpet walk for the "Wish" premiere. I forget what else we did that day (we did a lot of sightseeing), but what a way to start your morning.

This doesn't sound woke, it sounds "woke"—like the strawman of "wokeness" that Right Wing Incel Edgelord Wannabes tilt at in their Moms' basements....
Which is as much a strawman as anything they come up with! I wonder how they like it when it's turned on them.
