News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

[Trauma]

Bob’s plan to save D+

“Let’s put Dancing with the Stars on there….that’ll make everyone want it!”

It’s just ridiculous.

They have no compelling content.

Now some algo is going to help them know what to make?

What?

If Disney can’t make compelling content D+ is in trouble.

PERIOD.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

As mentioned here…the problem with D+ is they don’t really add any content to make you want to keep putting it on.

4-5 mini seasons of mostly BAD marvel and Star Wars shows…no original dramas or comedies…which get the most engagement from their competitors…

It’s a beautiful interface…the best in stream…but that window dressing doesn’t matter

I thought Echo was a comedy? Maybe to the tens of people that actually watched it?

Yeah the interface is great but that’s not what I’m paying for.

The easy to use interface just reminds me faster that there is nothing interesting to watch, time to click over to Netflix.

I'm sure Iron Heart, now that it's been reshot, will make for must watch content when it is release sometime in the next 1-2 years.

The other interface…still short on content…that rivals is Apple…

That would be the logical union

Maybe Bob sucking so bad that the stock falls so far that Tim Cook can buy him for a song?
If the fall continues…he won’t even have to bother to cut a PO for it

I see they’re up today…must be pump and dump Monday

…unprecedented demand

You forgot about Shehulk vs Ashoka: dawn of Injustice

Stop it.
What Disney IP features a pig?
Also unrelated, is there a marketing tie in with a lipstick company anywhere?

They'd get higher ratings with a cage match between DeSantis and Iger.

Ohhh Boy I sense a new D+ Special coming!

 

[Tha Realest]

Will the “data” collected help find these elusive new audiences?

As a subscriber, I'd say that there is barely enough new content I care about to make it worth-while to me at the ridiculously discounted rate I'm paying now and this is far from a new thing.

If I was paying either the regular with ads or no ads tier prices, for as often as I fire it up to see what's new and then abandon the app to go look in a different one, I'd have a hard time justifying why I keep it rather than just wait for a full season of something I might want to watch drop and then binge my way through it in a month.

Most of what my son watches isn't new and we have it on bluray. We're just lazy but he has a game system in his room that can play blurays so making that switch wouldn't be hard and it's not like you really need D+ to see Bluey... Heck, there are other ways to get it where you don't have to wait as long for the new content and don't have missing episodes so if anything, D+ is a more convenient but crappier way to experience, even that.

We got D+ free through Verizon and I cancelled it. We can now get it free as Spectrum customers ~ still not interested.

No, the scenario was that the data would drive the development and I think that would leave the odd and special things that only resonate with some people out in the cold for lack of development funds because "the data indicates" dumbing down to the lowest common denominator offerings because they have to appeal to the widest audience and be acceptable to all.

A beige world for all if you will

Every company uses marketing data to help guide them in decisions. Any creative idea is market tested before large budgets are assigned to it. Good executives use the data properly others poorly when making decisions. This isn't a Disney only thing.

DeSantis looks like he can't even pass the annual Navy PT test. Iger in his early 70s can still do 45 min workouts on his Versa Climber which he does daily in his pre dawn daily workouts.
