I’m sure it might feel that way to you. You’ve probably been bombarded with messaging that casts much of what Disney does in this light. But not everyone sees things from this perspective, and frankly, I find it tiresome.

Well, yeah, of course not everyone does. If everyone felt the same, there would be no culture war.

I suspect that it isn’t differences of opinions that fuel “culture war,” but rather how those differences are communicated.

The information you have might come from TWDC HR department, but your perspective is shaped by much more than that. Even if you don’t follow Twitter or YouTube or bloggers or podcasts, you have philosophical lens through which you see the world. We all do. The same information can be received and understood in very different ways by people who don’t see the world the way you do.

That's a great question and they need to figure out why their cost are so high to make and market their films!
I can provide the data if you like, but in the last 9 movies they lost about 900 million in total.
Guardians being the exception if I remember correctly.
Look it may be in their business plan to expect no ROI on their movies and if they are fine with that I guess that's OK.

Universal doesn’t have any negative perceptions nor baggage about their films?

My question wasn’t “how much is Disney spending?” or “how much is Disney losing?” but rather why is Disney spending so much money on its films?

I do not know why Disney is spending so much money on their films. My guess is there is no one looking at the costs , they are just working to get the movies done at any cost, there is no real budget.
Its strange. Whenever I watch a documentaries about legendary films, the costs are always mentioned and the things they did to stay within budget, and some scenes in movies I had thought was intentional (and was really great) was made that way DUE TO budget restrictions.
It seems to me Disney has no budget restrictions. A good thing for the creative folks I guess.

When it comes to animation, didn't they say keeping everything in house and US-based costs more than having it done overseas, which is apparently what other companies do? Not making excuses or anything, I just remember this coming up...

Almost no one cares or has a clue about how much was spent to make a movie. But yes, if someone spends money to take their family out to see a movie and it is trash then they will care about that but no one has a clue at this point whether Snow White is going to fall in that category.

Yes absolutely. This is why you have seen announcements from several companies as of late shuttering / culling their in-house animation studios, in favour of offshoring it.

I’m looking forward to the live-action Snow White. If you don’t get into all the rumors and speculation it sounds like it could be really good.

I am too. I'm hoping the year wait will cause some of those rumors and speculation to die down.

The rumors and speculation will die down when either, Disney puts the speculation to bed. Or once the main trailer is released. Until then, the speculation will continue for right or wrong.

I'm talking about in main stream media, not this forum. I'm sure they'll continue to be discussed in this forum/thread even after the movie is released.
So this forum/thread aside, unless something else gets brought up once its out of the news cycle they'll be forgotten until D23 next year when a trailer is likely released.

So the actor's strike ended a week ago, and within hours Disney sent Brie Larson out to shill The Marvels on The Tonight Show that only gets 275,000 TV viewers under age 55 per night.
So why does Snow White have to be pushed back an entire year now? It was supposed to debut four months from now in March, 2024. But now it's pushed back an entire year until 2025? Why?
If the seven dwarves were always in the movie, and production on the film wrapped up last summer, why the massive delay?

Because they have to reshoot the scenes with Rachel Zegler with a new actress.
