I think that if they did them before:
  - they ruined a number of my favorite IPs
  - called me racist/sexist for not liking the ruined IPs and other movies or series with all the qualities of explosive diarrhea
  - shat on my childhood
  - managed to insert politics into literally everything
  - escalated evil marketing practices to the extreme
I might have had sympathy. Ideally, it would see the error of its ways, get fixed and went back to entertaining people. Lacking that, if it burns to the ground and others start creating watchable entertainment works as well.

In many cases, as a part of the promotional material, it was normal to call people racist even before they had a chance to mutter a word.

The number of IPs they have completely crapped on is amazing. Listening to some of the actors they are like some artists who spout utter bull and expect people to just accept it as the truth for example "Star Wars isn't about a fight between good and evil". I just waiting for the moment they make an announcement they are going to remake BttF as I know an Australian that will go on a major rant if that happens.

I'm not familure with some of the initialisations used above:

IPs
BttF

What the heck do they mean?

An engineer who doesn't know at least 2 meanings of IP, one of which clearly doesn't apply, while the other almost certainly does?

The only one I know of is Intellectual Property. I didn't think it was engineering related, as the post is about cinema. Please enlighten me.
