Mousetrap: Disney Parks Make Billions, Disney+ Losses Billions
19FortyFive ^ | 11/18/2022 | Peter Suciu

Posted on 11/18/2022 7:33:46 AM PST by whyilovetexas111

Disney Announced Hiring Freeze and Layoffs as Cost-Cutting Measure. Why?: Disney Resorts may be known as the “Happiest Place on Earth,” while Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is the “Most Magical Place On Earth.” However, the magic could soon disappear for workers while many others might not have much to be all that happy about as the Mouse House announced plans to institute a targeted hiring freeze, along with some job cuts.

I thought this was interesting as karma is hitting Disney back. They try to make political statements and now their Disney+ service is a drain. Wait until Ron DeSantis takes away all of their privileges in Florida!

Good. They chose not to be the fun, clean entertainment that I remember as a child. Let them go bankrupt.

Disney was already pretty much lost me, as they were slow to reopen after the “pandemic” that wasn’t. And they kept rules in place that were monstrous in execution and totally lacking in any justification.

Why is the crap blog ‘19fortyfive’ talking about Disney? Isn’t their specialty wrong things about aviation, and even wronger things about naval history?

Yeah they backed Amber Heard and sacked Johnny Depp without any facts whatsoever. JD was innocent and a BIG moneymaker. AH is a toxic dumpster which now loses Disney BIG bucks from reshoots, delays and possibly trashing made films. Not to mention their WOKE films including all female superhero remakes. I’m not much on superhero stuff anyway but woke stuff makes me ill.

there is a reason they double the ticket price, people will still go and pay for that #$%^.

there is no need to pay for disney+ when you can watch everything for free by clicking a few buttons on your pc.

the lesson is here is that you can’t pirate disney theme park tickets.

The other divisions feed the propaganda arm that is Disney+. They are willing to bleed there. Stop going to the parks, stop going on the cruises, only then will we sever Mickey’s Achille’s tendon and watch the giant fall back to earth.

Content has now been siloed into a dozen or so different streaming services. In order to get everything you want, you would have to spend $100s of dollars a month.

On top of that Disney+ is limiting access to its back catalog either because it is no long woke enough, or because they're using it as bait to get people to sign up to higher levels. They are also modifying the originals to exclude "problematic" content.

If spending money on Disney+ doesn't even give you access to everything Disney, then why waste the money?

Disney keeps raising prices.
They are charging for things that used to be free.
The parks are dirty and showing signs of wear.
They recently invited former interns to come back to work for them, even as far back as the 1980s. Basically you work for Pennie’s while they charge you room and board. That’s desperation at the highest level.
The new 6,000 Star Wars hotel with its crap sequel characters is a bust too.
The latest Pixar movie features a gay guy prominently and is already DOA.
Wokekanda Forever hates on all males, insults the heck out of Mexicans and will not come near to last Black Panther movie in revenue
Combine that with their distaste of the Middle Class and parents, to cater to woke tards, it’s no wonder their stock has tanked.

Boycott Disney for being Groomers

Why???

Because they're getting ready for my and my family NOT going there any time soon.

Too expensive, and too woke, and too political. Plus, there are better and less expensive places to visit and have fun.

From my understanding (I don't subscribe to it, nor do I watch it), there is nothing worth pirating on Disney+

Disney probably will have x-rated shows of Mickey and Goofy having unprotected sex.

I have traveled to many of the worlds greatest wonders both natural and man made, historical and contemporary on all continents for a fraction of the price of a single family vacation to disneyworld

disney could have made billions simply renting their shows to Netflix, but instead tried to do it themselves.

I marched in three Disney World parades, in the ‘80s. Even then, most of the ‘cast members’ were gay.
