Is Disney Falling Apart?

Piers Morgan Uncensored
About this episode

The House of Mouse is falling down.


Disney’s last four big releases have bombed at the Box Office. The company is currently no longer Hollywood’s number one film studio.

Recent box office takings show even Marvel has lost its - well - marvel.


Critics say the reason is simple. Disney has prioritised identity politics over entertainment; pushing messages audiences don’t want or need to hear.

So do they have a point?


YouTubers Critical Drinker and Nerdrotic join Uncensored contributor Esther Krakue and the author for 'The case for cancel culture', Ernest Owens.
