Imagine a world where the owners of an IP actually appealed to the fans of the IP. I know sometimes you can expand your customer base with certain products but certainly not when you try to do it at the expense of loyal customers.

If Disney had a few braincells left (and that's REALLY up for debate) The Acolyte hopefully served as their 'all in on leftism' example where they didn't hold back so they could go 'well, you make use no money whatsoever so why bother listening to you?'
Compare that with Deadpool and Wolverine, they KNOW the winning formula and they can easily make a Gambit and Wesley Snipes Blade films for massive money if they basically follow what Ryan Reynolds does instead of Kathleen Kennedy.
I’m honestly surprised they didn’t think to bring Snipes back for Blade sooner. Those movies were well liked. At least the first two. When it comics to comics, fans of super hero comics skews heavily male. Also it seems that women like seeing strong male superheroes as well. Female superheroes who exist to upstage males aren’t popular. Who would’ve thought.
If I was Disney I’d do a clean slate with Star Wars. Like you said, they went all in on this crap and got nothing. Maybe an animated Heir to the Empire adaptation to start
When did Snipes have legal issues with the IRS as I can't blame ANYONE being scared to involve him for a while when you had them close by..
There is a Youtube documentary on this.
Turns out his accountant was fucking him over and the government went after him anyway as a quick famous patsy to scare people into paying their taxes.
