Boom! Disney getting canceled πŸ€£πŸ˜…

Recommended Posts

So many pages and weeks ago I predicted Little Mermaid's final box office would fall between 550-600 million.

Right now it is at ~567 million.

Score one for me

Should it arise that Disney appears to be more interested in making money over placating social issues, I might consider reinvesting.Β  I will resist investing in a company that places a higher priority over recency in society instead of profit.

TLM will make a small profit.

Disney had a bad earnings report with one-time write downs of some of their stupid streaming assets bringing their income negative for the quarter.

Surprisingly park revenue was up.

They need to start generating cash cow movies again though.Β

You were correct.Β  I didn't think it would make past 525-530, so you were right - credit deserved.

But Disney didn't make a 250 million dollar movie to profit 7 million dollars.Β  560 was the break-even point according to some and it BARELY broke even.Β  So, it was still so-so from a critical perspective but most certainly financial failure.

Of course every studio wants to make a bunch of money on a film. I said a few pages ago that in the end this film was going to just be a nothing in the end- not a failure and not a major success. Just something that existed.Β

They're gonna make money on streaming and merch, but yeah, in general not a huge success but not a bomb either.

Desantis bending the knee.Β  Basically admitting it was all a political stunt and he doesn't want to fight anymore.

He focked around and found out.

Quote

β€œ[W]here we are today, you know, we’ve basically moved on,” DeSantis said during an interview on CNBC’s β€œLast Call.” β€œThey’re suing the state of Florida, they’re going to lose that lawsuit. So what I would say is, drop the lawsuit.”

Disney's goal was 100 million subscribers by 2024.Β  They went over 100 million in just a year in a half, which is incredible.Β  Subscriber numbers are down but they are still exceeding their goal with 146 million subscribers.

Yeah, despite the 88 page thread about how they're destined to fail, I would consider them a good bet to succeed.

I wonder what makes him so confident they'd win given they did what the suit alleges.

He probably just felt bad for Disney.

Well he's not gonna come out and say that he knows he's gonna lose.Β  His first try is to ask them to drop the suit.Β  But we all know he's gonna lose bad.

Another lawsuit filed by investors against Disney. They claim Disney lied about their steaming numbers and how much streaming was losing. Β It’s the third such lawsuit filed against Disney. Ooof.Β
