If Chapek is the most unimaginative person on the planet then Iger is the second most

Cinema is never going to do as well. It peaked in the mid-2000s. Last year was the last big year for film for Disney. Without Disney, there isn't much attracting audiences to theaters. This year may be presumed a fluke due to the Coronavirus, but next year the decline will be evident. Nobody wants to be around people anymore. Nobody is putting out movies that you must watch opening weekend. The MCU ejaculated a decade of build-up in Endgame. Disney is running out of patience and source material for their live-action adaptations. WDAS is now SJW-led. Pixar has lost its spark. Lucasfilms has left little to be desired. Disney has been coasting on established properties for a while. Without Marvel, Star Wars, WDAS, Pixar, and the plethora of take-by-take remakes, what does Disney have? What does anybody have?

I don't know what Over even means when he says he's taking on a "creative" role in the company. Is he going to decide between gray, beige, and greige?

*Iger

You would think my device would know my language by all the bitching it was processed for me.

Especially since the Simpsons is already on Disney +

>With Chapek in the Captain's chair, no, it's only going to get worse. We have two boomers who I doubt really understand streaming in charge of a streaming platform.
I mean, if you're a good executives you have people who do understand streaming working for you and you lsiten to them.

This is perfect Disney will burn and Netflix we run out of money streaming will die

If you don't think Chapek is going to apply the same principles as he established on the Disney Vault onto Disney+, you are wonderfully naïve. Chapek is not going to listen to advisors who know better when he got to where he is now through his artificial scarcity strategies.

And then what? Creativity will be magically fixed and companies will stop prioritizing making money?

I don't think anything about that speculation (or care for that matter), just saying in general it's not because an executive in a business isn't an expert on every aspect of a company that it means they can't make good decisions regarding that aspect.

First thing they need to do is fucking better advertise content
It's completely unacceptable they have several shows exclusives that are not even advertised as existing, but dumped in with the normal archival content. Meanwhile all they advertised was that Star Wars show existed, no wonder everyone fucking dropped after that, you didn't even really advertise Clone Wars returning so everyone thinks Star Wars Baby Yoda show is the only original on the service alongside some shitty original christmas movie

>Pixar has lost its spark.

Sounds like somebody didn't see Onward.

>First thing they need to do is fucking better advertise content
No, they need to make it functional first. Exiting the tab or app will rewind the movie/episode you were watching upwards of half a minute. And it doesn't always register that you've watched something at all.

As long as those structures are in place creativity will be fucked

Why do people keep leaving out that Disney (mostly) owns Hulu? Adult content or not they win either way

I don’t think Hulu will last more than a couple of years, every Hollywood studio is doing their own streaming service, is likely that D+ will have all the FOX and Disney content.

The question is if Disney will shut down Hulu and put all their content on Disney+, even the adult stuff. I think this will happen if the streaming wars get more brutal.

>This year may be presumed a fluke due to the Coronavirus, but next year the decline will be evident. Nobody wants to be around people anymore. Nobody is putting out movies that you must watch opening weekend.
As much as I feel safe that my country's cinemas will always have hot seats selling with regional and East Asian fares, I hate going into a future where we won't be able to live pre-remake-and-merger-frenzy Freedomland in the big screen anymore - there is that unique charm to that long-gone era in Hollywood that local, Korean, Hong Kong, Indian movies etc don't have...

That or keep Hulu separate and just include it with D+ membership

Dude, the Golden Age of Hollywood looked very much like modern Hollywood behind the scenes. You'd be amazed at the number of remakes churned out by Hollywood between the '30s and '50s.

What structures? Any corporations at all?

>the Disney Vault.
Oh my fuck who actually liked that shit? Intentionally withholding shit from release doesn't give it "mystique" or whatever, it's just being a dick to the consumer.

So is it fair to say D+ is failing currently? I thought it would at least have the parents demographic locked down at this point.

The actual benefit of the Disney Vault is that it could be used to instantly drive up sales. By carefully farming out home releases of their most popular titles, they could offset any short-term revenue dips.

I see the economic benefit of it very clearly, but I just think it's scummy to make a strategy that objectively hurts the consumer but then give it some faggy little name to make it sound like some kind of deluxe perk.

Maybe in the 1990s and 2000s, but we're in a era where you can get the majority of content ever made at your fingertips and not keeping stuff on streaming results in many consumers cancelling a streaming service subscription
They can't afford the vault for streaming

obligatory in disney+ tread

When the FUCK are they just going to release this fucking show

HBO also has Crunchyroll. So it's got the weebs

Nobody saw Onward

They're in trouble, they have tons of strong IP which is the source of their high valuation, but as we've seen, they can destroy the value of great IP in a short time span (hello Star Wars!).

The parks have long been a massive cash cow, but they've been declining, and there are even reports of faked earnings reports. Also the new Star Wars attractions have failed miserably.

Put these problems against a massive debt mainly incurred by purchasing Fox, and the potential losses from the Corona virus spreading, Disney likely has a rough couple of years ahead of them at the very least.

>Looney Tunes, Hanna-Barbera,
IPs Which they haven’t really done much with in the last decade. Apart from Scooby Doo.

>Cartoon Network's library,
I will concede that much.

>DC Comics,
Which isn’t exactly in the best place right now given the cluster fuck that was the DC cinematic universe. The optics for that brand versus marvels other dominance of the genre is anThe optics for that brand versus marvels utter dominance of the genre isn’t exactly good for them

>Wizarding World of Harry Potter,
Last two installments of which in the Fantastic Beasts series didn’t do so well.

Yeah but those were actually adding something the original movies didn’t have.

The Mandalorian tho. . .

DC also includes shit like DCAU, Teen Titans, and the animated movies that are actually good. And Young Justice and Titans apparently did pretty well all things considered.

one gem in a sea of shit doesn't make the sea any less shitty
and with the ripoff of the old republic upcoming dont worry, even more shit inc

>and the animated movies that are actually good
Which ones ?

HBO Max isn't winning anything until they get their international plan in order. They can't even launch into Canada or the UK until at least 2025.

Disney is shooting themselves in the foot trying to keep those two separate and in direct competition with one another.

Hulu is not even a blip on the streaming radar, Disney will sell it off once Disney+ goes fully international.

Then why is Disney so adamant on keeping it around and dumping their PG-13+ content on it?

I keep on forgetting that companies like Disney don't really save money, they just reinvest it in a bunch of corporate takeovers and stupid ideas. Nintendo managed to live through the wasteland that was WiiU because of the war chest they accumulated winning the 6th gen console war, but it sounds like whatever billions Disney made from Marvel they've already spent.

Hulu is like the avatar of cable companies raging against the dying of the light that is their industry. It's a streaming service that has licenses for tons of cable and network tv shows... but it has ads. And its original content is few and far between.

Disney + has no new content compared with Netflix or Amazon, they just have a big catalog of old shit, yes, they are that way because new things are expensive.

Because they've yet to show that they want to do anything with it

As all the other networks pull out in favor of their own streaming services, Hulu will eventually implode on itself.
