Why Wish and similar Disney films don't work
Disney movies have taken a bit of a downward turn recently. How come?
The Iron Lung
Rian, the director who stunned the world with his debut, is now a prisoner of his own success. The spotlight that once illuminated his genius has become a scorching lens, magnifying the crushing demands of producers, the stifling hunger of the audience, and the paralyzing doubt cast by his own father. Rian yearns for bold experimentation, but finds himself shackled to the market-tested echoes of his past work, trapped in The Iron Lung of expectation. The Iron Lung is a visceral story of artistic suffocation and rebirth, asking a single question: What does it take for a visionary to choose freedom of expression over the comfortable silence of surrender?

The Rise of Skywalker, the Fall of Rey
It only seems to prove that when the company had their backs against the wall and needed an all pleasing, generic movie that had to make up for The Last Jedi, they chose to sacrifice almost everything that made their main protagonist interesting and that made her stand out as the strong female character that a generation of young movie goers was supposed to look up to. Instead, we were left with a Rey that was so much less than she could have been. And I guess that’s the real story of Rey and The Rise of Skywalker; they could have been so much more, but they were just more of the same.
