Talk:The Little Mermaid (live-action film)/@comment-26345648-20190708023243/@comment-1672596-20190708104959

Heck, not even money, they only care about pushing their stupid politics and catering to stupid SJWs who probably won't even see their movie anyway. If they actually cared about money, they'd also realize that regardless of how far their politics go, trying to blatantly promote them like this would LOSE them money rather than actually gaining it, and even they'd realize the above is a huge money loser. That's one reason why I ultimately thought Michael Eisner was the better CEO than Bob Iger, since at least Eisner was smart enough to realize he should not try to use his movies to overtly push a political or social agenda (probably the closest he ever got to doing that was THOND. BATB doesn't count, as that was more Jeffrey Katzenberg's decision and if anything Eisner wanted Jim Cox's rendition made into a film).

Ariel in the original film and its extension media was white, not to mention the entire area she lived in is STILL implied to be in Europe regarding geographical areas. Heck, forget the original Disney film and its expanded universe/extensions, even the story it's based on specifically stated that the little mermaid had skin that was, and I quote, "as clear and pure as a rose petal", meaning even the narrative for the original story implied she had light-colored skin. I can already predict it doing as well as Solo did (not at all good, in other words). Lin Manuel Miranda doing the film is a mistake.
