This theory is based on reports from two amateur journalists who have spies in Disney and Lucas Films: Doomcock (https://www.youtube.com/@OverlordDVD), and Kamran Pasha (he's on Patreon, and is a guest on several anti-woke pop culture shows).
They both say that:
- Lucas Film spent $4B on a Star Wars themed hotel, which was not profitable, and now planned to be torn down. So it's not even worth salvaging.
- How can you spend that much money on a dinky hotel? Even if it's not a hotel, spending $4B to create any product would take a long time for profitability unless you're selling the product with a much higher price. Like selling weapons to a military.
- Lucas Film contracted out work to a UK firm. The UK government shut them down for fraudulent reporting for government grants.
- The UK firm was working on The Acolyte. It's managed by Leslye Headland. She use to be an assistant to HARVEY WEINSTEIN.
- The Acolyte already racked up $100s of millions of expenses and still have shot ANY FOOTAGE.
- Disney sent investigators to Lucas. They discovered that rank-and-file employees were given credit cards, and there was little scrutiny on their expense claims. This reminds me of how pyramid schemes, colleges, cults, etc recruit useful idiots: by attracting them with instant gratification rather than empowering them.
- The investigators were looking for criminal evidence because Kathleen Kennedy's contract says she can't be fired for under-performing in generating revenue.
- Speculation: Kennedy must have some kind of cabal leverage on Disney to get that kind of clause in her contract.
- Of all the projects, the investigators are more focused on The Acolyte.
The whole of the movie industry could be a money laundering operation.
Consider: You release a movie in a far-flung country that takes cash for the tickets. You then claim that you received $1 billion in ticket receipts in cash. Who would be in a position to audit that? What if half of that came from drug sales, who would know?
Or: You could overpay your stars knowing that as part of their unwritten contract they were to "donate" a few $million to certain chosen candidates and political parties when requested. No need to have it in writing because they will just never get another job in Hollywood if they do not comply.
Right there you have a way to launder illegally obtained cash into political donations.
