They say all press is good press: https://deadline.com/2024/06/walt-disney-world-food-prices-out-paced-inflation-report-1235974951/

63% women sounds like Barbie audience overlap. Assuming that percentage is high for a family franchise title? Feels like a perfect storm for this movie: Inside Out hasn’t been an overexposed franchise, 9 years since the last entry, summer timing, Pixar brand, adult and critical well-regarded...

Yeah, they’ll certainly learn something: how to greenlight Monsters 3, Up 2, Nemo 3, Coco 2…

Obviously wouldn’t do that when you’ve got all your eggs in the streaming subs basket. Who’s to say the Alamo brand won’t be expanded? If a studio believes there’s any money in the future of theatrical, it’s a smart move.

Only on a Disney theme park forum would Keith David be referred to as “the VA for Facilier.” Dude’s the most famous actor in the cast.

WDI probably decided there shouldn’t be any laughter on this ride because it might be misinterpreted.

Hope the queue has a Live Laugh Love sign to complete the inspirational Kirkland’s decor theme

That storyline doesn’t sound nearly as poignant as the first film which was a big part of its appeal.

These two have been anti-Disney SW for years, they’ve gone to town on the failure of Wish and Disney animation generally, Disney’s embrace of DEI, the list goes on and on. The only possible explanations are early access credentialing is extremely sloppy, or they believe negative coverage has a...

Proof that Disney is clueless, or that they actually see negativity as good promotion: this guy gripes endlessly about the company’s “woke” series/films re: SW, Marvel, animation, live action, and they still have him and his site credentialed for early reviews?

What do they teach undergrads in creative writing class on day 1? Show, don’t tell.

First Louis AA’s mouth wasn’t moving. Welp.

Snake oil’s the new pixie dust

Awards consideration, that old chestnut. https://deadline.com/2024/02/daisy-ridley-young-woman-and-the-sea-disney-theatrical-release-1235806172/ Choice quote from the Deadline bozo when this was announced as a theatrical release: “Anyway, it’s another win for streaming movies heading to the...

I’d be shocked if any of them underperform in opening weekends, although I guess it’s not a stretch to think DM4 does less business than the last Gru movie. I think a lot of the industry narrative will hinge on things like Twisters and the Quiet Place prequel. If those perform like Furiosa, then...

Disney’s not even reporting the weekend numbers on Young Woman and the Sea but Deadline is estimating $500k. Probably a good chunk of that was people with subscription plans not paying out of pocket. The box office tracking guru guy had estimated $4m-$9m for the opening weekend, and $11m-$33m...

Just summed up the last two decades of WDI

Literally 1:50 in this Six Flags over Georgia POV:

Funny how Disney’s now staging animated figures like a 90s Six Flags dark ride. WDI is clueless.
