Imagine you're a movie creator for Disney... [View all]
...and, one fine morning, you get called into the CEO's office.
"Good morning. Would you like some coffee?"
"Yes, please."
"Frank, get our friend some coffee. Now, we've got a big problem that you can help me solve."
"You don't want me to fire anyone, do you?"
"No, nothing of the sort. You know how Governor DeSantis in Florida hates our guts."
"I'm aware of that."
"And we need to do something about that."
"So...you want me to 'de-woke' our operation, whatever the hell that is, in hopes that Governor DeSantis will like us better?"
"Are you kidding? I want you to write a movie that's REALLY going to piss him off. Make it live action because he'd be out of office before we could finish an animated feature. I'll give you a $25 million production budget, a $25 million advertising budget, and free rein to do just about anything you want."
"How about we do something like Song of the South, but instead of a kindly Black grandfather reading stories to children, we make it a drag queen?"
"Fantastic idea! It's Monday morning. Bring me back a preliminary storyboard on Friday afternoon."
Describe the movie that you would make.
