re: Disney's most putrid racialized and delusional piece of "entertainment" yet.

Come on, you know the market is way down in general, let's not act like it's just Disney.

I have no idea about any of this, maybe it's true, bit if they sell off Star Wars I'd be pretty surprised. I'll believe that when I see it.

Also Don’t confuse raw box office numbers with movies making “bank” outside of Avatar they had a lot of movies lately that have been disappointing at best.
But go back to the movie that really started Tigerdroppings to hate Disney, The Last Jedi. TLJ did 1.3 billion According to this board, that was going to be the downfall of Disney. What did TROS do? Over a billion. Six of their highest grossing films of all-time have come AFTER The Last Jedi. A movie that wasn't really even hyped that much, Wakanda Forever, did close to a billion and then became their most streamed movie ever for Disney+. Having movies like that more than make up for having flops like Lightyear.
You have shows that this board hates that are all part of Disney setting itself on fire, Obi-Wan, Falcon and Winter Soldier, She-Hulk, etc., all did well. Just because this board doesn't like them, doesn't mean they weren't a success. That's not even counting the shows that pretty much everyone liked, WandaVision, Loki, Mandalorian and others.

The Dow is down 3.4% over the past 12 months and up 28% over the past five years.

Nice strawman, no one said it was the only stock that is down the S&P 500 is down roughly 20% from a year ago, Disney is down 50% that’s considerably worse than the broader market.

I don’t think “what some posters on TD said” is a useful starting point. However, the SW prequels box office take dropped each movie and Solo was a flop. I realize some complaints about TLJ being woke are out there, I never agreed with take it was just a bad movie. I did go see Ep IX which was a jumbled mess just to see it thru. I’ve never seen Solo, the SW prequels made me realize back story’s are better left to the imagination.

Wow most streamed movie in the whole what 2 years of the streaming service it was generally considered a disappointment box office wise from what I’ve read, probably because of Boseman’s death. I really don’t understand why they didn’t try to replace him.

You are judging things on what this board says and then if certain posters or YT commentators complain about it being “woke” then ignore any criticism of it. Most of those shows you listed are disappointments numbers wise. It’s literally going to be no one watching. Not Disney but look at Velma, people were touting “most watched HBO animated series, viewers up 127% for 2 episode or whatever but it’s getting completely trashed by critics not just “Maga” viewers.
There are definitely serious problems at Disney, denying that is just doing so because of who is saying it’s “setting itself on fire”. They have been putting out a lot of crap, some of it is over saturation some of it destroying beloved characters some is the “message” but in the end it’s boils down bad writing, bad production unoriginal stories.
