Satire of Disney's film strategy of prioritizing sequels over original content
Overview
This is a 3-panel satirical comic meme mocking Disney's modern film content strategy. In the first panel, a Disney executive at the head of a conference table says they need new movie ideas, with the Disney logo identifying the company. In the second panel, two attendees suggest sequels to popular existing Disney franchises: Toy Story 5 and Frozen 3. A third attendee suggests making an original, non-sequel film. In the third panel, the attendee who suggested an original film is thrown out of a high-rise office window by Disney, humorously showing that Disney rejects original ideas and only wants more sequels to existing hit franchises.
Origin notes
This meme was originally posted to Reddit with the title "New films!", as noted in the source metadata. It uses the popular pre-existing "boardroom meeting suggestion" meme template, where an unwanted suggestion results in the person who made it being thrown out of a window. The meme satirizes the common criticism that Disney now prioritizes sequels, remakes, and adaptations of existing intellectual property instead of funding original feature films.
