Whoops. 5) Desantis backpedals, and instead passes a new bill saying you can keep Reedy Creek, bit we're going to oversee it. 6) Disney says, sure, and then has the current board push through a bunch of rules before Desantis's friends can join 7) Desantis gets his friends to join, but now they see the old board made it so they can't do anything for 30 years. Desantis is a joke, has no idea what he's doing, and is getting b1tch slapped on every move. Lol! Desantis for the win! Another spot on analysis by the resident dope. Lol.

EternalShinyAndChrome 2,648 Posted April 3 Hey Everyone! Losing money is the new "makin' money"! Disney lost $134 million on Indiana Jones alone, and that doesn't even include marketing costs. It's probably a lot more. https://www.forbes.com/sites/carolinereid/2024/03/31/indiana-jones-whips-up-130-million-loss-for-disney/?sh=53d1e2513e13 "Deducting this from Disney's $192 million share of the box office gives the loss of $134.2 million but that isn't the end of the story. The financial statements do not show the marketing costs for the movie and, on the other hand, the box office share isn't the studio's only return as it also receives revenue from merchandise and DVD or Blu Ray sales." Remember we were told by posters on this VERY board that Disney was "winning"! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And weren’t you guys saying Iger was going to come to the rescue and end the woke BS? 1st Question: Stop playing stupid. You know exactly what that means. When you lose 21+ billion dollars, that isn't the same as losing $1 bill out of your wallet. "Broke" doesn't mean absolutely dead broke (but it can). Generally, it means "Your product doesn't work and your losing a metric sh#t-ton of money". I know you know that but you, like your girlfriend squistion, always play these semantic games. No company loses that much and goes - "We're Winning!" like you kept saying. 2nd Question: Nope.

You know there is more to “making money” than stock price right? I mean aren’t you guys also saying “the economy sucks even though the stock market is kicking azz”? Their recent earnings report was mostly positive, but investors were reacting to the streaming numbers. Decent analysis here IMO - https://www.msn.com/en-us/finance/-top-stocks/what-earnings-beat-disneys-streaming-slowdown-is-all-anyone-on-wall-street-cares-about/ar-BB1lZ6X3?ocid=sapphireappshare Speaking of streaming, I’m pretty sure I didn’t even comment much to say “they’re winning.” Most of my comments in this thread were proving the board retard wrong when he read a report about cable TV numbers and kept saying “Disney+ lost subscribers.” Took him awhile, but he eventually admitted to being “mistaken.” I did acknowledge that some of their movies such as Lightyear sucked, but Lightyear didn’t suck because of woke or because Tim Allen wasn’t in it, and they’re not bringing back Tim Allen because Lightyear sucked, he was never really gone because Lightyear wasn’t a Toy Story movie. Then the manly men here made fun of my then 6 year old son for liking the very good movie Inside Out. Inside Out 2 comes out in a month, hopefully it’s actually good. Speaking of the board retard, he seemed to think that Iger would turn it around. On 9/25/2023 at 1:08 PM, Hardcore troubadour said: Yeah, at least Iger is acknowledging the damage their move to woke and introducing adult sexual content in childrens content has done to them. Obviously the people with skin in the game know the deal and Iger had to assure them or even more would bail. He also said they would be investing more money in Florida. Win- win To the best of my knowledge, the only thing I was wrong about in this thread was that I didn’t think Desantis would have much impact on the Reedy Creek district thing, but that didn’t really have anything to do with Disney going broke. Congrats to Ron, he “won” his fight with Disney. Too bad it didn’t help his putrid Presidential run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The value of the company reflected in the stock price. That's it. The end. Your second question is in reference to people, most of whom are living paycheck to paycheck, not corporations. Those people aren't investing in stocks. You might just be the dumbest person on the planet. You should donate your brain to science. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The end. Your second question is in reference to people, most of whom are living paycheck to paycheck, not corporations. Those people aren't investing in stocks. These seem like things that shareholders would be happy about: “In the second fiscal quarter of 2024, we achieved strong double digit percentage growth in adjusted EPS(1), and met or exceeded our financial guidance for the quarter. As a result of outperformance in the second quarter, our new full year adjusted EPS(1) growth target is now 25%. We repurchased $1 billion worth of shares in the second quarter and look forward to continuing to return capital to shareholders” Your second paragraph is incredibly dumb. The point is the stock market is supposed to reflect investors’ outlook, which would include for the people that aren’t actually buying the stock. But I’m not surprised you don’t see the hypocrisy in saying Disney’s value is solely in its stock price, but also that the economy sucks despite a strong stock market.
