Even with 100 million subscribers profits will still not eclipse Studios, Media Networks and Parks.

Sure, but I mean... what else you gonna do right now? Theatres aren't a viable option. Disney at least has a dumping ground they can use right now.

Not if all those programs get massive budget cuts due to the studios' division having no profitability.
Expect the MCU and Star Wars franchise to undergo a Batman & Robin/Superman III/IV-phase.
The budget for the current slate of Disney+ shows that are at least filming are already locked in I cant see those changing. Perhaps we might see some changes to shows coming up like Ms Marvel or Hawkeye. I hope not though. I think Disney will continue to invest a good amount of cash into Marvel. I could see them scale back their investment in Star Wars though.

REALLY hope we get it in the US too! But I wonder if it will go to Hulu instead.

I belive prior to the Disney acquisition of 20th Century they made a deal that all Fox films would first go to HBO until 2022. Currently other 20th Century 2020 films (Call of the Wild and Underwater) have their trailers up on the HBO Max app signaling they will likely be available on the app in the future meaning Hulu will have to miss out as well until it leaves the HBO Max catalogue.

Then I'll see it later rather than sooner I guess!

Interesting, yet creatively it looks like a bad move.

In fairness this was probably in the works long before Covid.

True, which is why I said it was expected. The writing has been on the wall for awhile now that all media companies are pushing for streaming.

And already I'm seeing bad takes of people saying this is Disney becoming "primarily a streaming company" and that they're pushing legacy assets under the bus/considering spinning them off. To which I LOL to that.
