Like what?you’d think with that experience they would have had a better strategy

Netflix was Blockbuster by Mail.
And what are Uni guests currently seeing... and remember, you can't count things not open to the public yet.
financiallyLike what?
Oh, I get it, now! [slaps forehead]...
He also says that Disney+ losses have no affect on what’s green lit in the parks. In fact, D’Amaro was adamant that the Walt Disney Company is on the brink of their biggest projects yet. “We have no shortage of money. We wanna make sure we do the biggest things, the coolest things, the things that represent the future.”

"Good idea, Bob, and how about, you point at stuff and quietly say 'peas and carrots' a few times to me. I'll respond by pointing with my whole open hand sort of like I'm holding a water glass from the bottom but sideways and I'll twist my wrist like I'm tinkering with an imaginary thing you're pointing at while also mouthing 'peas and carrots'!""Hey Josh let's go walk around AK to make it look like we're thinking about the Blue Sky stuff"
20th Century Fox is no more. Big parts of it were sold off (Sky and regional sports channels). Other parts scrapped (the physical international linear channels).
What's left are a handful of studios that turn out content for theatrical release, TV, and streaming. A good chunk of new content on Hulu (Star overseas) is from former Fox studios.
FX, Hoststar, and NatGeo are their own hubs on their streaming services.
Redundant employee positions were eliminated.
There is no separate 20th Century Fox division at Disney to sell off. It's all fully integrated.
Murdoch's children could just seek to purchase the 20th Century catalog (minus the Marvel stuff) and the 20th Century studio name from Disney when they take over Rupert's position.And why would the Murdochs want 20th Century back? They stopped caring about Hollywood the moment Fox News became their flagship property. The writing was on the wall when their attempted hostile takeover of Time Warner collapsed.
You ok?"Good idea, Bob, and how about, you point at stuff and quietly say 'peas and carrots' a few times to me.

You ok?
Urban Dictionary: peas n carrots
When you are on stage, but in the background or off to stage left or right and are supposed to be carrying on a whispered/background conversation you continue to repeat "peas and carrots" to each other so the audience sees the lips moving, and can hear the psst-pssts, but cannot understand what...www.urbandictionary.com
Also, from what I learned on this forum, it’s that you all suck! You are all Disney-obsessed and too biased!

Another thing: 20th Century Studios has a president (Steven Asbell) and their films post-Disney purchase are still distributed by themselves, which I don’t think makes said studio "integrated" into Disney.
My name is Elijah Abrams, and I am new here to this forum! I love going to Disneyland in California, where my favorite rides there are Radiator Springs Racers, Rise of the Resistance, and Splash Mountain (which I hate to see get changed). I also went to Walt Disney World in Florida back in the summer of 2013, and I went to Universal Orlando in summer 2012 and in summer 2019! I also love Disney's films (both live-action & animated. Examples include George of the Jungle, Inspector Gadget, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Aladdin, The Lion King, Hercules, Tarzan, Lilo & Stitch, The Emperor's New Groove, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire) and their most recent animated TV shows like The Owl House and Big City Greens.
You still haven’t shared your recommendation for what Disney should do instead of this pivot to streaming. I’m genuinely curious.
And while Disney has acknowledged that costs got way out of hand and PR went sideways, so far the plan is working, isn’t it?
From my perspective, what remains to be seen—and I admit it’s a biggie—profitability without falling back on the old ways of doing things. If they go to all this trouble to pivot, only to fall back into bundled services, two-year contracts, and commercials, I’m going to be very disappointed.
Lucasfilm has a president. Marvel has a president. All their movies are also released through their banner and are fully integrated into Disney.Another thing: 20th Century Studios has a president (Steven Asbell) and their films post-Disney purchase are still distributed by themselves, which I don’t think makes said studio "integrated" into Disney.
That rate of loss.was.in the plan?Those aren't losses in the usual sense. They're investing in an entirely new way to do business. What's so hard to understand?
As I've outlined in the post you quoted of mine, all the previous 20th Century Fox stuff has been broken up and fully integrated into Disney's corporation. So, separating them back out would be very difficult.Murdoch's children could just seek to purchase the 20th Century catalog (minus the Marvel stuff) and the 20th Century studio name from Disney when they take over Rupert's position.
Nelson Peltz's restore the magic report is an interesting read.
Also, watch Mickey Views video about this. Goes in depth on it. I strongly believe Peltz would be a great board member, he seems to really get what is wrong with Disney these past few years.
Overpaying for Fox, over profiting on the Parks, etc.
No, I think costs got out of control when Chapek announced a new goal for total number of subscribers (he raised the goal from 80M-90M to 240M+) and the pandemic pushed them to release big movies on D+, which started to blur the difference between “streaming content” and “theatrical films.”That rate of loss.was.in the plan?
