According to a report she cited, Disney has lost nearly $900 million with its last eight films, which she referred to as &#8220;woke flops&#8221; at the box office. Some of these films include Lightyear, Elemental, and The Little Mermaid remake, which feature LGBT characters.<\/p>\n<h3>Conservative Activist Charlie Kirk Joins the Conversation<\/h3>\n<p>Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, made a guest appearance on Kelly&#8217;s podcast and expressed his lack of sympathy for Disney&#8217;s struggles. While he usually avoids rejoicing in the &#8220;suffering&#8221; of individuals or companies, he made an exception for Disney. Kirk stated that Disney used to be a &#8220;wholesome family-friendly company&#8221; but has since betrayed that trust and deserves to face the consequences.<\/p>\n<p>Disney&#8217;s most recent movie, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, had a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-flash-suffers-largest-second-weekend-box-office-drop-in-dc-films-history\/\" title=\"'The Flash' sees biggest-ever second-weekend box office decline among DC movies.\">lackluster opening weekend<\/a> in North America, earning only $60 million.

On the Fourth of July weekend, the fifth Indiana Jones movie was surpassed at the box office by Sound of Freedom, a film based on the true story of Tim Ballard&#8217;s heroic efforts to rescue children from human trafficking.<\/p>\n<p>Another Disney film, Pixar&#8217;s Elemental, had a disappointing opening weekend in mid-June, grossing only $29.5 million. This marked the worst start for a Pixar film since Toy Story in 1995.
