I don’t think Chapek got tossed out solely for not making enough money. The CFO of Disney openly spoke against him to the board. Lower level employees still dislike him - it’s not the most reliable source but online CEO approval ratings by anonymous employees along with some of the things that came out during his…

Well he also alienated everyone internal to the company and fired popular rivals. That didn’t help. 

2023 (ish), in San Francisco, so....

I’d like to remind everybody that Jalopnik in the not so distant past was on the Transformers as well as the Fast & Furious bandwagons, both of which are garbage.

Don’t bring Paul Verhoeven into this

I can’t remember what city I lived in 18 years ago.

I always loved the hypocrisy of Disney here.  Cry about a “dont say gay” bill while expanding Disney+ services to several middle eastern countries where being gay is literally illegal.  and I’m sure someone will make excuses for this corporation.

Every time he took a shit, things went to shit.

This right here. In upstate NY the Turkish American owner of the Chobani yogurt company hires a ton of Syrian refugees and other immigrants. Not only do they work harder, but they pass drug screens and eventually become grateful proud citizens. There has been blow back from the oh so welcoming local Republican welcome…

So put a drive-thru at the end of Subaru’s assembly line, dummy!

Honestly! Are there no good men left???

While working on an assembly line ain't great fun, it beats the shit outta working in a fast food restaurant any day. Anyone who takes a job at Mickey-Ds over putting cars together has lost their damn minds. 

I’m familiar with rural IN. I suspect the problem is that there aren’t enough competent workers who could pass their drug tests.

“Back in 2014, Haskins ran for the Michigan 95th District seat in the state’s House of Representatives as a Republican.”

As a four-time mental illness winner, whose life has fallen apart countless times, I can honestly say: who fucking cares?

“The One Where Chandler is The Machinist”

She is always FIIIIINNNNNEEEE! :)

Steve Carrell isn’t a good comparison nor is any celebrity who is famous for a non-VA role. Right or wrong, they’re being paid the big bucks because they’re famous for something other than voice acting. Studios believe that having them on-board helps with ticket sales.

Way to long for a horror movie.

She is correct that this film can give people the impression that all obese people are miserable but this was a play based on an obese man’s personal experience. We need to be able to tell all the stories, and this is one of them.
