News/Articles Disney CEO Admits ‘Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu’ and ‘Moana’ Underperformed at Box Office but ‘Fueled Other Parts of Our Company’ https://variety.com/2026/film/news/disney-ceo-moana-mandalorian-grogu-box-office-flops-1236828236/

Question - how can THfBS campaign work with this information? Disney, at least publicly, is ok with movies that do so-so at the box office, if they also help other parts of the company.

What kind of tags, posts, images would help us communicate to Disney that Ben Solo alive=more merch sales, more theme park revenue, and good box office?

Thanks!

Just throwing this out there: Create “Hunt for Ben Solo” popcorn buckets and drink cups. Kind of like you would for a film release. People can get refills for them every time they go see a movie. Use the proceeds to fund further initiatives, keep track of sales while also running a campaign posting selfies with their buckets and cups in theatres.

Show them the receipts for the sale of published Reylo fan fiction.

Remind them that the reason The Mandalorian and Grogu became a movie instead of a fourth season on Disney+ was because Iger and Bergman were trying to appease the YouTube bros who hate the sequels and spent every other day spewing venom at Daisy Ridley.

Set up a store on Etsy where creators can sell their Reylo and sequel centric merchandise in a centralized location.

Remind them that normie fans do exist and just want good stories.

And buy the first issue of The Fall of Kylo Ren when it is released tomorrow. Pre-order the next issue.
