I wouldn’t put too much money on Captain Marvel, if I must be honest: From what I heard, Captain Marvel hasn’t had very positive reception based on the trailers, certainly that’s what One Angry Gamer and Four Color Media Monitor seemed to imply. Doesn’t help either that they may make her a lesbian, since that’s what the guys doing the MCU have implied recently. As far as Aladdin and Lion King, eh, still don’t know about that: There are posts on FreeRepublic that imply that they’re not going to turn out all that well, and even some editors on Disney Wiki are growing sick of all the live action remakes. Frozen 2 might be a big money maker as would Toy Story 4, but that’s more of a wait and see approach.

Either way, ESPN suffering and ABC suffering definitely points to Disney not doing very well even WITH the films. And quite frankly, had I been a shareholder and saw what happened with ABC, ESPN, and all of those things, I’d immediately fire Iger on the spot, like they did with Eisner.

ADDENDUM: Heck, if anything, Star Wars products sales were DOWN during the 2018 and 2017 fiscal years, meaning it HASN’T been doing well under Disney, and even mainstay Disney film products such as Frozen, Cars, and Moana are sinking like rocks based on this: https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/01/star-wars-revenue-takes-hit-across-video-games-merchandise-comic-books/75132/

That if anything seems to reinforce that Disney’s NOT doing well.
