Doubtful, but even so $500m isn't $2b.It's gonna do $500 million in China.

I guess we'll see. I think it sells fewer tickets than Endgame, but inflated ticket prices and a skew towards 3D and PLF will push it over $2b gross.Doubtful, but even so $500m isn't $2b.
The funny thing is a lot of YouTube content is relatively low budget so if that is the type of stuff is popular, why not just emulate it to some degree? Low risk, high reward.That is exactly the case. They aren’t getting beat by Comcast…they’re gonna get beat by kids with iPhones.
You keep telling yourself that. Enjoy the cope.Man, they have really made a mess of things.
I think it sells fewer tickets than almost anything. BP:WF's box office will be higher in the US. No one cares about Avatar. Unless it does well over $1b in China, its not getting to $2b.I guess we'll see.

This is a very popular refrain among people who are way too Online. Normal people don't "care" about any media properties, they just want to be entertained for a few hours. They enjoy spectacle.No one cares about Avatar.
Apple makes a bunch of acquisitions, they just tend to be smaller no-name companies that have a technology that Apple wants to incorporate (for example the revamped Weather app in iOS 16 is built on Dark Sky, an app they acquired a couple of years ago). Tim Cook is a numbers and operations guy, if he wanted to make a move he would make a move. He has no reason to be interested in fulfilling Iger’s Steve Jobs fantasy.And Apple has shown no signs of being in the Merger & Acquisition business (M&A). But if they did, there's a lot of low hanging fruit to buy before wanting to take on Disney and parks and cruise lines.
I feel like Avatar's ship has sailed. Avatar was exciting back in the day for the animation. Today, it looks like every other Disney movie. While I am sure Water will be good, I don't expect reviewers to be wowed or consumers to go back multiple times. I am of course, going to be wrong, but that's my opinion today.This is a very popular refrain among people who are way too Online.

This is what you sound like when you say "no one cares about Avatar."

Even Rescuers Down Under got some push before being completely abandoned by Katzenberg.Man, they have really made a mess of things.
The other danger here is it’s been 13 years. I think a lot are going to view this as a reboot rather than a sequel.I feel like Avatar's ship has sailed.

Big yikes. He better get the animation side of the house fixed pronto.
The internet says She Hulk was around $25 Million per episode.
Ummm, how do they identify the gender from tweets?Nah, they're literally counting tweets.
Guess there's been an antitrust lawsuit filed having to do with the ESPN portion. Don't 100% understand the legalities but here's the article that cam across my Google this morning.They don't want to be niche, they want to be the new cable bundle.
That gender map that shows Hulu insanely female and D+ insanely male (not to mention ESPN+, which is even male-er) is the whole point. Once ESPN proper goes direct-to-consumer, Disney can sell families a $35 bundle that includes Monday Night Football.
Metrics are needed not only for industry purposes, although that’s part of it. They’re needed so that it’s clearer on a social level when a feature or series has achieved something like blockbuster status, which in turn drives more viewers to a title. It’s partially a question of curation and hype, but it also solidifies when a studio is producing meaningful work (or what audiences are finding to be meaningful).Will it be a total number of watchers to a show, like the old TV ratings, with a breakdown by demo? Does that matter as much for an individual show if any ads served in it are targeted to the end user, unlike broadcast where everyone got the same ad and you could charge as such?

Any Tweet that calls women 'females' is from men.Ummm, how do they identify the gender from tweets?
