      It didn’t read like this was the joke to me. Disney isn’t in a creative rut, they’re purposefully not trying new stuff.

        I don’t even know if they’re necessarily in a creative slump on purpose either. They made “Elemental” not too long ago that was fairly original. They just know for a proven fact that if they reach behind their back and grab some random IP from ‘The Vault’, change one of the characters from white to OTHER, maybe make one of them nebulously gay, and change up the animation style, all of the parents who have nothing bigger to look forward to everyday then what’s on their DVR at home, will 100% buy movie tickets to go see Will Smith shit all over the memory of Robin Williams.
