The fact Disney is trying to copyright strike her despite her trying to find positive things and most of her content is original shows just how vile Disney has become
When your only tool is your corporate mouse hammer, every nail seems like it will squeak when you hit it.
They wanted to make an example out of her since she was a shill for them on Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker
Jenny was a former Disney Cast Member. She worked at Disneyland Anaheim as a plaid vest VIP tour guide until she quit to work for Screen Junkies. That is partially why she is so tuned into the theme park business.
Thanks for the info. Now I see why she shills the Disney SW merch so strongly and stupidly spent $6000 to visit the hotel disaster. Nothing against the documentary, just that she really likes to push Disney SW stuff in her video views from the doco. Everything else is fine.
No wonder she loves Disney stuff so much. I watched her entire video and I wouldn’t pay $50 for that experience. I swear to God I wouldn’t.
@@Phaota She spent $6,000 because she knew she could make it back in a video. This is not her first breakout hit. She also trashed the Rise of Skywalker, so not a shill, but believe it or not some people legitimately like parts of Disney Star Wars.
I was about to say this too! I thought it was partly why this video blew up as much as it has recently.
@@RupertMDoc If she was being serious, then trashing "The Force Awakens" and "The Last Jedi" should have been her first takedowns. MauLer did and they were epic in length, longer than the actual movies, covering every problem inherent in them. I doubt Jenny thought she would make her money back on the video, but at least she did. She is a shill in regards to displaying and showing off Disney SW merch. If someone dislikes what a company is doing to their favorite IP, then you definitely do not show their merch, which just means she still likes their content. The SW IP is unfortunately dead, more so now thanks to Harvey Weinstein's former associate and her terrible "Acolyte" series. Disney is figuratively shaking the dead corpse of SW to see if there is any life left. All of us old fans are gone, leaving only the shills of Disney left to claim any fandom, and that is dying fast.
man that last sentence:
"the death of a franchise is to make it corporate
instead of organic and for the fans."
Thing about the video:
Jenny is completely fair. She takes no sides and when they do something good, she says it. She doesn't say it with bitter sarcasm, but a realistic "good job". If Disney was smart, they'd analyze her video to see everything they did wrong instead of trying to hide it from everyone. She gave them a multi-thousand dollar professional analysis of the Star Cruiser hotel for the price of a few hours of their time.
Yeah I just watched her video (spoiler for others it’s 4 hours), and 100% agree. She is never once rude or derogatory. Her take is critical and honest, but not intentionally crass like the Drinker or Nerdrotic crowd. She genuinely gives a lot of compliments for things she liked, particularly the cast members and some of the effects, but she equally genuinely expresses her disappointment with the “cruise”.
Disney would be smart to pick her up as a marketing insider, but we all know they’d never listen to her because they clearly only care about gouging their customers not making them love their brand anymore.
@@lawrencetalbot8346 "She is never once rude or derogatory. Her take is critical and honest, but not intentionally crass like the Drinker or Nerdrotic crowd". You say that like it's not long since past warranted at this time smh.
Jenny, Star Wars Theory, and others like them are too nice and accommodating. Don't get me wrong i like them (why wouldnt i? they're nice well meaning positive people) but there must be balance in all things.
I guarantee nobody doesn't know at least one person who is a doormat and gets used and abused by assholes like the ppl running the show at DEIsney.
Those ppl are the types that end up in abusive relationships or cults.
If you're hitch-hiking and a guy looking like Jeffrey Dahmer pulls over, his vehicle smells like dead bodies and there are tools covered in a red substance strewn across his back seat you don't go "well maybe he is a butcher that specializes in finely aged meats and he just left his cutlery at home" and get in.
If you do you're too nice/dumb to live and natural selection will inevitably take place.
Other than the customary base level you afford to all people you are unfamiliar with you only extend further benefit of the doubt to those that have shown they deserve it. Respect is earned.
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. There's a sucker born every minute...
I think one of the big reasons Disney is so antagonistic towards her is her video exposes how badly Iger & Co underdelivered. She shows the publicly available promo videos & you can see how badly they cut corners.
It's easier to try and silence a youtuber than take accountability, and learn from your failures.
"Overpriced & Lame" describes almost everything Disney makes these days.
Pretty much anything attached to a corporation is like that now.
Jenny's not alone. We all wanted to like new Starwars, some of us just have a lower tolerance for BS.
Racist 😂
I didn't tbh. As soon as they said they were axing th EU because they figured they could do so much better, I just knew it was gonna be shallow corporate slop.
Age justifies intolerance. Experience rarely earned quickly.
I'm so fed up of hating the things I love. 😒
@@markeastwood74 hopefully the schadenfreude induced catharsis kicks in soon. 😆
I stumbled across the video ,despite not caring, watched almost the whole video because Jenny comes across detailed and honest..this is a girl who wanted to like it ..most people would shill for Disney but Jenny seems to have ethics.
Jeb is honest to a fault. 👍
@@insensitive919Jeb Exclamation Point!!!
Her Review was more entertaining than any of the actual Disney Star Wars films & shows. It's actually quite sad how bad her experience was.
Serious Chris I wish someone would release Jenny Nicholson’s Review in theaters it is deserving of an Oscar for best documentary. Have Hope fans!
Personally the ONLY way Disney can be saved is if it is no longer publicly traded . It needs to be family owned . They fail to appeal to customers but cater to the board and shareholders .
Isn't it that this public company lacks critical shareholders who care about results? They appear happy to lose money on Bob's Woke Outlet.
@@Cloxxki I work in private equity and you have to understand how these people think . They live in a bubble and say “ how do we expand our market share ??” . Ohhh let’s appeal to these fringe groups . That will add millions of more customers . But they failed to realize the alienated a majority of their customers by doing that .
I would not trust the company in the toxic hands of Abigail Disney.
@@zaniq23 1000% agree. But it needs to be bought out by someone who loves and respects Walt’s vision. Not to mention an owner that doesn’t care about CONSTANT growth and increased revenue . But an owner that will reinvest back into the parks, animation , etc. They may take a revenue hit in the short term but it will pay off long term.
Hard part is finding someone or group of someones who could be trusted to steer Disney in the right direction to salvage it once it’s gone private. You’d need essentially another Elon Musk to come in and do to Disney what he did to Twitter. You’d also have to pay out Blackrock, Vanguard, and the rest shares to free it of their woke influence, which ain’t cheap.
Jenny has created the best Star Wars video of the Disney era, standing before its funeral pyre giving a most damning eulogy.
She’s awesome… at 63 I’ll admit I have watched a lot of her other stuff now, and she’s just so honestly entertaining…
I watched her video twice. It’s a brilliantly scathing analysis of Disney. It’s not just critical but also has meaningful suggestions of what to fix and how to do it
I've been both a fan and at odds with some or even a lot of Jenny's takes in the past decade, but I still consider this an awesome win and am happy for her. You know Disney done fucked up when a person like Jenny is critical of your shit and try to silence her.
Yea she was totally slurping up the sequels when they came out
@@gantz0949obviously you did not see her Rise of Skywalker video then
yes, if you haven't seen Jenny's video: go watch it. It really shows what Disney does to its most loyal and enthusiastic fans.
They put you behind pole
Soon as I heard about the copyright strikes, I made a point to sit through it on the spot in case it gets pulled.
Disney doesn't hire it's marketing team based on merit. 🤷♂️
yeah not the executives either
@@petertorvik8413 Or the "creatives"
@@petertorvik8413 Or the "talent" 😅
It's all based on Didn't Earn It
Watched all of Jenny's video with Jay's critique. Amazing. And I LOVE the FTN intro.
What's Jay's channel?
@@atticstattic Drunk 3P0
@@atticstatticsearch for “Drunk3PO”. It’s a fantastic video. I had to watch it over several days.
Hiring Jenny would be Disney admitting they don't know what the hell they're doing and that fans are right about them.
The first step towards solving a problem is admitting you have a problem.
Her video is superb. Incredibly well researched, produced, and absolutely entertaining - for four hours. Amazing.
Great that you mentioned Mary Franklin. She was the best thing Lucasfilm had handling fan stuff (Celebration) and as soon as she told me she was leaving lucasfilm I knew things were to go downhill, and it did.
I lived through the dark days of Star Trek in the 1970s when the show was long canceled and there was nothing in sight, but the fandom was strong.
Eventually, we did get our movies, and new TV shows, but I miss those days when the only Star Trek info you could get was in places like Starlog, and gems like the Star Fleet Technical Reference Manual or Franz Joseph's blueprints, and the small number of novels.
Now we are experiencing the never-ending chum bucket of lifeless, brainless, corporate "content", which is all awful, made by people with no talent who literally hate the franchise. The same goes for Star Wars. And in fact, the same goes for pretty much every IP that we real fans loved over the last half century or more.
@ConceptJunkie agree. I stopped watching all the new ST. I was wallet open ready to like it also. I didn't even mind the Klingon changes bc that's just art. But the storytelling could not be saved.
I've watched that review three times. It is the epitome of what UA-cam is for.
I watched Jenny's video, it is so well structured, I didn't mind the long time.
You either die by the hand of MauLer or live long enough to become the MauLer.
Disney, Hollywood, the entertainment industries in general, don't hire fans anymore. Why? Fans will insist on making something the best it can be so that fans would enjoy it, while the corporation just wants to make money while cutting costs as much as possible.
Her video should be nominated for an Oscar for best documentary
Universal should hire Jenny Nicholson as a consultant for their Epic Universe park.
im half way through her 4hr video and its great, completely fair and unbiased reviewing so far.. unlike everything else thats been said about other disney sw shite by some sections on the press and YT. ive never cared less about SW and its a sad feeling
If I never hear someone say 'chef's kiss' I would be happier.
Her review of Rise Of Skywalker was awesome too
I am wondering when RLM is gonna put out their 10 hour review of Drunk 3PO's 7 hour review of Miss Nicholson's 4 hour review of that Garbage tier idea.
Who knows. But I'm there for all of it!😂😂😂😮
@@nunyabizness6595or efap
The way RLM is going, they will tell us the hotel wasn't so bad and that $80 blue McNuggets are actually canon
I love RLM but I have to admit that the signs of getting old are showing - in the last couple of years there’s a significant number of videos that I skipped after 2 mins.
Nah... I'll wait for the EFAP 20 hour coverage of RLM's 14hr coverage of D3PO's 7hr reaction to jenny.
A lot of the Star wars shills and Disney Star wars fans do not like her. I have seen them make joke after joke about her. And they have already labeled her and branded her as a toxic fan. So her opinion does not count or matches them. I am just glad that those people are very small minority in the Star wars fandom. That they're the ones we make fun of.
It's ironic because her videos cultivated The Last Jedi fandom 😂
Watched it immediately as it came out … Jenny rules!
"Epic" is an apt descriptor for her video. Epic, informed and informative.
I watched her whole video over 2 days. Instead of copyright striking her, Disney should hire her!
If Disney can turn off even this (former?) Pixie-Duster, you know that the decline is well advanced. Jenny is their entire target market.
PS: I do like her non-Disney stuff. The Church Plays video was awesome.
I couldn't stop watching her video. It didn't seem like a four hour video. Plus I loved her dry sense of humor.
I honestly believe that the creatives and executives at Disney aren't the best. They're hiring and promoting people for reasons other than talent. They're no longer focused on delivering the best they're focused on doing whatever the mutual fund, ETF, and pension money managers demand. What they're demanded is that in order to meet their investment criteria Disney must do things in a certain way that meets the money managers' and bankers' corporate credit scoring system. Most of which have nothing to do with delivering good products or services. The question we need to ask ourselves is "Why?" Why are these financial guys pushing these corporate credit scores?
Of course disney is trying to shut her up and shut her down. I'm going to go watch her video yet again.
I just watched a 4 hour review. She is very entertaining.
Jenny is great - she's so sweet, yet incredibly cutting.
U know it’s an honest, no shill review. She’s a legit Star Wars fan. She goes back before Disney
I watched it.
Then I watched Drunk 3PO watch it.
I remember watching the video where she bought that Porg. I'm so glad she is getting some recognition because she is a proper fan. She deserves it, bless her cotton socks.
Have to be careful watching Jenny’s content. You find an excellent critique of Star Wars then end up watching hours of surprisingly excellent my little pony and vampire diaries deep dives… don’t watch or know about half the stuff she talks to but it is always entertaining
Her brony parody is also epic.
One of my favorites is the one where she documented all those plays that church did.
Bro Trimble- there’s a blast from the past (my past 😊). I met her at a Star Trek convention in the mi-90’s. Very lovely lady.
Disney have become the villain... the greedy arrogant soulless corporate monster
I watched the review twice. It’s so entertaining. I’ve watched her review and the RLM multiple times.
I’ve seen all of Jenny’s videos - Star Cruiser is some of her best work - she’s got such a great sense of humor and an interesting perspective- she comes at these things like an active participant with insight and ideas - Jenny kills it.
I’ve seen it 4 times - my thoughts? If Disney wants to survive they need to create a position for Jenny deep in the company - she could at the very least replace Kathleen Kennedy however I think her greatest contribution would be overseeing the theme parks.
It should go Bob Iger, Jenny then the rest of them…
Jenny does indeed know how to do epic.❤
Man, I really wish people like Jenny were employed high up at Disney. The company would be better for it.
I watched the whole thing, as you advised. It really is worth the time.
If anyone thinks it's too long for one sitting, treat it like a mini series and watch a little bit every few days.
Just imagine if they created it but based on the original trilogy instead.....granted they still would have screwed it up but still that i would have been interested to go to
Yeah, have a tattooine area, with the cantina and jabba's palace, and a cloud city casino area. Hoth wouldn't work in either Anaheim or Orlando. Maybe a ride where you get to be a death star gunner and blow up a planet of your choice. No Endor! No Ewoks!
I love Jenny. She came and saw my wife at evermore and was extremely complimentary. She's awesome.
Her Evermore documentary was like a warm up for her work on the Star Wars Hotel
I watched it, it was excellent. The four hours flew past, I barely noticed. I struggle to get through a 30min episode of a show without getting distracted.
Corporations should be paying Jenny to review their theme parks and give honest feedback instead of paying shills to tell them they're brilliant.
7:59 If Disney hired Jenny Nicholson, they would have her sign an NDA and fire her the next day.
Her video on the Hallmark channel is hilarious
If Disney were wise, I know, they would invite her to Burbank with a lot of fanfare, cut videos of her going through conversations with all levels of the company. Then give this Thank you, Jenny, for showing us a great way forward.
I met Bjo years ago. Really interesting and kind person who has TONS of stories to tell.
I watched her 4h video and enjoyed every minute of it something that I never felt watching Disney's Star Wars.
I was riveted for the entire runtime of her video. Her breakdown about what she felt Disney should have charged per night was really on point.
I watched the video and found it great, and the reason it was great was because she was really invested in the experience and wanted it to be good, and her investment was contagious. By making this critique, she clearly and effectively communicated what the experience could have and should have been.
As much as she criticized this disaster, and it was deserved, her criticism was entirely constructive and positive.
Why does anyone consider Disney Star Wars actual Star Wars? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Jenny is a gem!!
It was an amazing review. I watched the entire thing in one sitting the Saturday after it came out.
I've always loved Jenny's work.
I don’t even watch Star Wars and I watched Jenny’s 4 hour doc. Make that make sense.
Jenny's videos are always a hoot, I'm so glad to see the latest gain so much deserved attention
I really like her, she kind of disappeared for a bit. And, I have a feeling it's because she didn't have anything positive to focus on. Glad she released this. I couldn't watch the whole thing, but i watched a lot of it.
Corporations will never understand that it is the love and passion for something that creatives have that makes all the difference. It is a
the same thing that made Mom's or Grandma's recipes taste that much better when they made it versus yourself.
It is a Proven Measurable effect that can and has been shown to be fact in a number of interesting studies. Look up the study by a Japanese researcher who exposed everything from food, fungus, plant life and even water and ice crystals separately to only positive loving energy and encouragement vs the other samples to nothing but mean, harsh and ugly criticisms.
At the end of each experiment the positive samples were still healthy and robust etc etc... While the negative samples were all rotten and spoiled and broken down into this blackened oozing goo.
The Review was amazing!! 😂❤😂
[ *★🎆Star Wars🎆★* ]
I *_LOVE_* The Original Trilogy [Ep. 4-6]
I _Tolerate_ the Prequels (Ep. 1-3)
I positively *_L0ATH_* the (cringe) Sequel Trilogy [Ep. 7-9] with a passion likened to the heat🔥 of our planet's SUN☀

This reads like an old copy-and-paste chain mail letter at first 😂
I doubt anyone at Disney will watch this analysis, much less hire Nicholson, as this would disrupt their goal of losing as much money as possible.
Jenny rocks 👍
That Alien lady looks no way like Jenny Nicholson.
Any video by Jenny Nicholson is better than anything modern Disney is making.
I’ve read Bjo (Bee-Joe) Trimble’s book, “On The Good Ship Enterprise”. A fun read.
Honestly, I don't like all of Jenny's takes at least when it comes to movies, but her insight on theme parks is phenomenal.
I always love how Chris says to Alan.. Alan did you watch it? And Alan always answers.... Ahh No. AND The review continues...
I have it at 8.8 million views
Bjo Trimble instrumental in getting the OG Star Trek a third season. Not the greatest season but plenty of gems in there. Plus it contributed to more episodes which made it blow up in syndication.❤❤❤
I don't think they cheaped it out, I think they really thought they could do better. That started at the top with KK.
Step 1: Corporate makes franchise more corporate to make more money
Step 2: Franchise too corporate to satisfy fandom
Step 3: Corporate loses money due to lack of fan interest
Step 4: Blamegame, because corporate is not to blame
Step 5: Repeat on another franchise
It’s a towering achievement of UA-cam. If I was god emperor she’d be head of imagineering
She’s one very very smart cookie? Why ? She doesn’t post on Twitter at all! She’s definitely genuine fan. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯👍👍👍👍😎👍👍👍😎😎😎
She actually does have a Twitter account
@@jankk she doesn’t use it! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@hanniffydinn6019 she does use it but not very often. Only when she has something worth saying.
She only puts out a couple videos for free sometimes over a year apart. But they get millions of views- unbelievably. Most of her new content is behind a paywall
They'd never be willing to pay her what she's worth, unless they fired half their incompetent hire-ups behind this terrible star wars hotel. There is also the matter of accountability, and modern disney shows none.
I believe she's a lefty too.
Had a similar, much less hard work experience with a restaurant recently. Totally overpriced for what came out. Made a written complaint on G and then they responded by blaming us! Imagine the fucking cheek.
I am only seeing 9 million views. Did they remove 2 million of her views?
I had to do work travel that lasted 4 hours round trip and I was engaged in her entire video.
Along with Shogun and Fallout, Nicholson's 4-hour video is a must watch for 2024.
Better content than Disney studios put out.
Well researched well written well spoken well produced well acted.
So absolutely nothing like the acolyte for instance.😅😅.
Therefore the problem , she is too smart for Disney and as an actual star wars fan knows more about star wars than for instance Kathleen Kennedy or whatever yes people they hire so they can live in their little bubble community.
Their also quite happy to criticize fans whilst being totally unable to take criticism themseves.
I don't like unethical companies and Disney is one of the worst from what i can see as a thinking human being.😮
Drunk3PO or Jay had a 7 hour video.
Love both of you
If you're Disney, and you can't keep a fan like Jenny Nicholson happy, then you have a massive problem.
Jenny's getting more views than The Acolyte with a 4-hour piece to camera.
...Jenny Deserved Better & Deserves to be Heard...
...Dizney will get their Just Deserts...
👽 🖖 🤖
I would support a ban on purchasing companies and IP's.
They never should have given her a refund for that photo service thing they scammed her on. Either give everybody a refund or nobody. Giving influencers special treatment while screwing over everybody else just makes them look WORSE.
Kinda glad the Nicholson held them to account on that, rather than take the special privilege and not say anything.
Apparently Disney gives influencers a lot of special treatment for favorable reviews. Clownfish TV goes deep into that.
I still cannot believe I watched the whole thing. I am not even interested in Disney World.
