Nope. If that’s what you thought I was doing, then you most certainly did misunderstand my post. Not only did I never say that, but in fact I actually acknowledged the very opposite. And then I said time will tell whether going forward anything different occurs.
Candy was fantastic!
Also I highly recommend The Dropout. Watch the documentary with the real Elizabeth Holmes first, then watch this series. Amanda Seyfried was excellent.
I liked The Bear, but living in Chicago and experiencing beef stands all my life (which honestly, the best ones are in the 'burbs) you had to watch it with a large grain of salt.

It's currently down 2.46 as of this post. Market is still open for several more hours.

Again I never said it was going to be light. That was never my assumption. I just dont think it's going to be unbearable

And yet they got the Best Pic Oscar before Netflix. Strange times.

Disney owns 21st Century Fox, which includes 20th Century Studios, Searchlight, FX, NatGeo, and some other things.
But no, they do not nor did they ever own Fox News, nor Fox Sports 1/2.
They did, for a period of time, own the Fox Regional Sports Networks, but those have since been sold off to Sinclair Broadcast Group.

I didn't even know they updated the name.

Murdoch did that in 2012 when they split the studios off of News Corp.

LOL, that's true. It's best not to get into it too much.

You must not follow Twitter.
These are intertwined. What's the point in park reservations if you've restored full day park hopping? Scrap them both together.
The master plan wasn't really evident for the general public till the end of The Avengers, when that post credits scene got everybody asking "Who is Thanos?"
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is meant to do this with Kang. We got a soft intro to Kang in Loki, but this will be the first villainous version of the character we've seen. We'll see if this is a success in February if more people are asking "Who is Kang?"
They didn't though. The OT and PT had a ~31% drop in box office from the first film to the second film. Then the OT and PT had a 34% and 21% increase respectively from their second films to their third films. Meanwhile the ST had a 35% drop from first to second film and then another 19% drop for the third film. The most objective way to look at these is box office performance, and it's clear the ST did not trend with the PT and OT. And I say all this as a massive fan of Force Awakens and the world it tried to build.

I'll disagree about Peacock. They don't have a major draw in terms of a drama series, but they do have things like Premiere League Soccer and WWE pay-per-views to get people to stick around. The WWE events are monthly and the service (with ads) is half the price that the old WWE Network was (which itself was much less than half the price of a PPV through cable providers), so there's no point in canceling for a few months to save money. While both of those are niche markets to some extent (moreso the soccer), they do draw people in (WWE Network had over 1.1 million subscribers in the US before it moved over to Peacock).

This is so inaccurate it's hilarious. HBO Max has one of the deepest and impressive back catalogue collections of all the streamers between HBO shows and WB films. They just simply need to stop screwing with something that is working just fine
21st Century Fox is defunct. At the time of purchase of 21st Century Fox, the divisions not being bought by Disney were spun off into Fox-branded divisions still owned by Murdoch.
The divisions of 21st Century Fox that Disney did get, were spun off or merged into existing divisions. All divisions with "Fox" in the title that were bought by Disney began to have the Fox-brand removed (by the terms of the agreement, all things Fox-branded had to be removed by 2024).
Disney now uses "20th Century" branding for some things that were once "20th Century Fox" or "21st Century Fox."
Murdoch's organization started to use 21st Century Fox as the over-all holding company, which included the 20th Century Fox studios which retained its legacy-name.
Disney bought a big chunk of 21st, which included 20th.
Neither Disney nor Murdoch uses 21st anymore. Disney uses 20th (without 'Fox') and Murdoch slaps 'Fox' onto what he has left, including new Fox studios that produce content.

We like Apple TV+. There are some very good shows.
Give your guests no reason to leave and they will stay no matter how easy it is to go elsewhere. Thats what imo he needs to do issue is to accomplish that they literally need to expand all 4 park w capacity and i just cant see this company being able to pull it off. Ill be hopeful he has seen his mistakes and the board steers him in that direction but end of day he started this mess gonna take some soul searching to admit he was wrong…

Out of all of those, the only one that interests us is Schitt's Creek, which we watched all of on Netflix already.
