43 of the Funniest Burns from the Week of March 4, 2024

Earlier this week, while at a conference dedicated to discussing the state of technology and media, Disney CEO Bob Iger rebuked the notion of “superhero or franchise fatigue.” “If you build it great, they will come,” he argued. You’d think Iger would have referenced Endgame or Black Panther to get his point across, but instead, he chose to cite Oppenheimer as the perfect example of how people just “want great films.” 

He’s not wrong, as evident by that film’s colossal box-office numbers and windfall of accolades, but the Twitter timeline was quick to roast Iger within an inch of his life for not mentioning a superhero movie or a movie developed under his direction. 

The timeline actually had it out for quite a few people this week. The hottest burns included those about a man with bear tendencies, a messy roommate and the actor perfect for a live-action Rango reboot.
