BEST SHOW EVER!!!
In the days of being able to rent and stream 1st run movies I don’t know who the economics of the movie industry works these days. I do know that movie theaters keep 50% of ticket sales but I don’t know how much the streaming services take for each movie rental. I don’t know whether streaming is a net plus or minus for the studios.
Disney has a new Star Wars movie planned with a Transvestite as you know ,LOL
How do movies cost that much to make…unless money laundering to progressive interests is involved?
Woke plays a part in this but Disney is going downhill on a lot of fronts. Their non-Woke movies are old, tired and formulaic. Their new movies are Woke. That is a formula for losing money.
You would think shareholders would revolt against losing value for in kind political donations.
You’re under the mistaken belief that they’re in business to make money - when in reality - where I live - (Miss You, Rush!), they’re in business to CORRUPT the children of less than vigilant parents.
Disney tentacles are everywhere. Movies, TV, cruise ships, theme parks and merchandise, merchandise, merchandise!
And this is WORLD-WIDE! *SPIT*

Guardians made Disney a lot of money, but the rest were bombs.
Keep alienating your customers and make products people don’t want.
I am SO looking forward to the copyright on Steamboat Willie running out next year. We’ll see their precious Willie on all sorts of things. Me, I hope someone prints it on rolls of toilet paper. I’ll buy a case
I streamed one of their recent Marvel films and was disappointed in the weak script and the propaganda of a young girl describing her life of being raised by two mothers in a female/female marriage. The leading Marvel superhero thought it was peachy. I felt I was being lectured to.
Insanity says that, losing $1 billion in sales is worth it as woke policies have a chance to work.
But, the insanity gets even worse when it’s apparent that people won’t accept woke policies being shoved down their throats, and those pushing wokeness double-down on doing ti.
Think of all the poor people who could have been helped with that money.
Gosh.
It’s almost like they have a woman there who is making movies she wants instead of what the customers want.
My understanding is that their theme park revenues went in the toilet also.
>> “That can’t go on forever. It’s just simple numbers, folks,” <<
No, it can. Disney has $4.7 billion revenue on Disney Plus alone. It’s not great for Disney, as their stock price declines show, but it’s not the end of the rat, either.
Nobody wants to watch trans and LGBTQ activist movies and shows.
Valliant Renegade is making up numbers.
IMBDPro is showing the following for those eight moives.

There is no easy for me to format this. Suffice to say, the budgets of the 8 were $1.720 Billion, the worldwide gross as of today is $3.844 billion.
Only two of those movies have not surpassed their budgeted amount, Strange World and Elemental. Both are cartoons with plots that make no sense to me, so I can see why they have not done well.
The Little Mermaid is now 123rd on the domestic gross list having surpassed Jaws and Shrek.
The top three of these films are 85th, 91st and 115th on the all-time worldwide gross list. The Little Mermaid is $54 million from joining the 200 all-time. Not bad for a film that is supposedly tanking.
On a side note, of the 200 highest grossing films world wide, Black Panther at 15th is the highest on the list in which the domestic gross exceeds the worldwide gross (and not by much). There are only 12 films in the top 200 with that distinction.
Subliminal child sex porn doesn’t sell as well as it used to?
Grooming expenses exceeding revenue?
The exposure of Disney’s sick, warped priorities has cause people to think twice
about exposing their children to it?
