    Yeah, I can see that view point as well. It is a bummer that Disney cannot give what the fans want. I am not against if they want to go another route but they can do both (I.e. What happened to Luke after ROTJ?).

    General Star Wars News

    I disagree whole heartedly. Star Wars is literally the #1 IP in the movie business. When Disney announced a new “Rey” movie during Star Wars celebration it got luke warm response. Those are your fans and they do not want it. Are these new fans going to buy the merchandise? Disney must get this...

    I cannot believe I am famous now! :) Thank you all. Yes, I gave my opinion and got destroyed for my opinion. Geez! Again, I want Disney to succeed and be the best movie producer. It’s not happening any time soon and I am concerned.

    Yep, see TP2000 analysis in the TLM section.

    At the time Guardians was released it was a surprise by mostly everyone. I am not changing my argument. Today is a lot different because we had so many iconic characters in the MCU. Now, Disney switched to the M-She-U and the collective audience (including women) is not attending. That is a...

    I think you need to look at the data TP2000 and others online have stated online. Obviously, you love the movie and that is great but Disney cannot sustain this model. Remakes and sequels will not keep this company afloat.

    Pardon my ignorance, the original or the one on Netflix?

    Alll major studios are losing money. That is why they are retooling, looking at costs, cutting the number of movies they will be creating, and will focus on quality. It takes time to turn around a big ship.

    That is a solid number for maybe another studio but not Disney. Also, most of Disney’s remakes were above a billion. Plus, it lost money on reshoots, production and marketing costs. Sorry it is a flop. It lost over $100MM.

    Disney is an entertainment company. It is currently not entertaining the MAJORITY of it audience. Disney is trying to weave in a typical film festival type movie into mainstream media. Not working. Many parents are not ready to discuss LGBTQ+ with their children or have Disney tell us how to...

    You mean losing money is not considered a flop? What business do you run where make things to lose money? You wouldn’t.

    Not true at all. It is well covered why these movies are failing. I do not need to rehash it. Again, I want Disney to be successful but you have to admit they lost their way.

    You wanted another remake? Why? It lost money and people were upset what Disney did to an iconic movie. Wouldn’t you want a new mermaid story? Fake news? People are voting with their wallets and even Disney has acknowledged that their story telling has been sub-standard.

    I think you can figure it out by searching online and what the CEO stated during a couple of interviews.
