Hawkeye21 2,399 Posted May 23, 2024 The company's direct-to-consumer business, which includes Disney+ and Hulu, posted $47 million in profit for the quarter, a sharp turnaround from its $587 million loss in the year-ago period. Revenue also showed solid growth, rising 13% to $5.64 billion. As of March, Disney+ subscriptions were up 6% to 117 million, while Hulu subscriptions grew 1% to 50 million.

EternalShinyAndChrome 4,106 Posted June 17, 2024 BeachGhey: Disney movies have all been profitable over the last 5 years. If this movie makes a billion dollars it will profit over half a billion dollars. ESaC: Disney themselves reported over a billion dollar loss on their movies and also that's not how movie profits work. You do realize that Disney doesn't actually get a billion dollars from the box office, right? BeachGhey (moving goalposts): You post 24/7 loser! You have no life! ESaC: Actually, the posting stats show you average 13 posts per day and I average 5. That's not even disputable.
