ESPNLinear TV...dying a slow death.
- Still profitable, only, less profit year over year. But, yes. It will eventually be a niche market and not much of a source of income. And because it's dying, Disney needs DTC...
After the billions they sunk into it, breaking even or meager profits don't sound too exciting.DTC Profitability...yeah maybe some meager profitability at best?
- As long as it's not in the red. As cord cutters cut, Netflix and D+bundle are the top competitors for those cord cutters to transition to streaming. CBS's and NBC's streamers are where D+ was a year ago with half a billion dollar loss each quarter. Iger's stated goal is to emulate Netflix in popularity and profit.
How much of the Chinese parks do the Chicoms own? Answer: More than Disney.Disney Experiences...with the exception of DCL, not doing so hot right now.
- The parks are doing very well. Hong Kong just had a huge quarter and paid off its debts. The parks generate billions in profit still.
The domestic parks generate massive amounts of revenue and are the engine that sustains the company. So what do they do? Drive consumer sentiment down trying to squeeze as much from the guests as possible and also getting involved in spicey issues.
Sadly you're referring to the exceptions.Studios...Failing spectacularly.
- Failed. This year, Disney movies are doing well. IO2 just hit a billion at the B.O. Deadpool will probably also break a billion. As well as Moana 2. As much as a certain portion of the Star Wars fandom is pulling out their hair, the Star Wars series still get big views. And there's always Disney's golden goose... Bluey.
Shall we look at the upcoming slate of Marvel and Star Wars disasters?
The Acolyte has lower views than Ashoka which was previously the lowest viewed Live Action Star Wars Series ever on D+. So some context to your statement is needed.
And Bluey, Disney's golden goose that they only license and don't own, and through a stroke of genius don't own the theme park rights to.
$DIS is at about the same level as it was when Bob came back in November 22. The only thing that happened to drive the stock up under Bob's second term was Mr. Nelson Peltz. Now that he's gone, we're back to the basement. Bravo!New CEO...nothing...Bob4eva?
- Yeah. I'm sure investors want to know there won't be a Chapek II.
