Disney somehow managed to frick up their bread and butter, a princess movie.
Domestic collection has nearly flattened already https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Wish-(2023)#tab=box-office
They spent 200 mil on this and they'd be lucky if they make 85.

How the frick did they go from multiple billion-dollar films every year to this so quickly?
I mean you can say "go woke go broke" all you want but it seemed like everything was working fine for them up to 2023

Inertia kept them going until people realized that the shitty movies had become the norm

Yeah, and I also don't think this will be fixed overnight either - the GWGB problem isn't simply that chuds are rejecting your awesome movies with woke messaging, but that you've embraced a DEI-oriented corporate culture that tolerates mediocrity internally. Reversing this will be difficult.

This is it. People don't understand intertia. Why do business fail? Because someone ruined the product 10-20 years ago and it took that long for the brand to lose its reputation and for the wheels to fall off.
The measure of media's success is how well the sequel does. Marvel movies are bombing now whether there's something wrong with them or not because the last movie or TV show people saw fell flat and the momentum was lost. Nobody is watching Star Wars because between the Prequels and the Sequels nearly every fan of the original trilogy has been pushed away.
The problem is, the effect takes so long to be noticable that people can obliviously shrug or delude themselves about the real cause. Fanboys will point fingers anywhere else and then be shocked when the plug is finally pulled by some beancounter. Addressing the core problem is hard and the fans that are left won't admit what the problem even is.

I mean it's only if you hit something big. I like to play 3 card poker. On the typical seid bett 3 of a kind pays 30-1 and strait flush 40-1. I'm usually bettting 10-20 on that seid bett. If I win $600 I don't mind tossing a $25 chip to the dealer if they're actively engaging and doing a good job. Even for lesser wins like a flush or strait I'll toss them a few bucks here and there. But only if I'm up significantly and they're dealing winning hands. If I'm losing or just treading water, sorry buddy
talk. Marvels is firmly
Black Fryedi has nothing to do with black people lmao.... darn ignorant people
Glad he got humiliated by the cowboys for his last game (assuming he's actually gone which he definitely isn't). I actually thought he'd play in the NFL until no team would take him then go play some shitty foreign league. He'd probably fricking murder Euros into his 70's.

I think their streak of mediocrity is catching up to them. For a long time people went to see Marvel movies because they were Marvel movies and went to see Disney movies because they were Disney movies, but they have been putting out enough bland shit that people are starting to catch on and are no longer giving Disney the benefit of the doubt. Like Captain Marvel wasn't any better than The Marvels but the former made a billion dollars and the latter bombed hard. The reason Captain Marvel did so well was because it was the last MCU movie prior to Endgame and at that point anyone invested in the MCU felt like they had to see the movie.

When OP B-word showed up, I rolled my eyes and sat through her crappy scenes. Such an unnecessary character.

Not sure what basis I have for this but is it possible people just don't want to pay money for entertainment?
I mean everyone's phone will serve whatever content you want - for free.
I hadn't seen the concept talked about before I read how Netflix considers anything you do in your spare time a "competitor". If you are gaming that's considered an L for Netflix. Maybe Disney needs to see things that way too?
