I'm on the fence on how I feel about Molly taking Disney's free night in POFQ and gift cards here. She wants to be on "the list" and turning them down is akin to saying that she doesn't need them. On the other hand, she comes across as more authentic when Disney is not paying the bill for her.
Rant: The Disney Marketing department has gotten LAZY and still hasn't a clue what to do with the shift to social media from television that happened a long time back. If Disney is looking to do a round of layoffs, may I suggest this time don't target IT where every person is needed, but rather the entire marketing department? They have failed the parks, failed the movies and triple failed on that giant 50th shebang that was more like a kerplop.
Disney is still using the model whereby they pay vloggers in gift cards, free stays and other perks to give them a Disney-focused vlog which works as advertising. Sure it's the golden nugget all the vloggers are vying for, but it produces repetitive garbage. They are nothing more than a method by which to control the output of Disney-positive content.
Of course Disney likes Molly - she's upbeat, she's a former cast member who learned the pillars of Disney and who left on good terms. It also helps that she's got a large following. Challenging Molly to see how much she can get done in a day while staying on property doesn't feel like content, it feels like filler just because Disney Marketing hit January and they had no better ideas to fill the void. If they want to spend money on a vlogger and it's January, give them special back-stage access to the artists, let them get a free art lesson, put them in the kitchen with the chef and have them try their hand at creating one of the booth items - best for laughs if the vlogger fails and it was not a setup.
they're basically working FOR Disney now
Molly is not on the payroll - she's on a leash.
