    Their marketing team over the last 5-10 years are such blatant liars that it’s damaged their reputation (among other things). They need to fire their marketing team and hire a new one that doesn’t resort to “we’re the first in this category” marketing lies. There’s creative ways to market without being blatant, outright liars

    I'm cautiously optimistic by changes I've seen a lot of businesses make and rolling back the nonsense of the past years. I hope Disney gets backs to basics. They've done irreversible damage by losing A LOT of true talent but I would like to see Disney right the ship. It's not rocket science, just give people what they ACTUALLY want.

      But there is something that for whatever reason cannot be calculated in this, and that is the MERCH that is sold. For instance, Mufasa seems to have no merch whatsoever, Sonic definitely has toys and stuff flying off the shelves, Wicked had tons of stuff recalled, a,nd Moana 2 actually had stuff on shelves unlike Inside OUt 2 which yes there were some plushies but they were on the bottom shelf at my Walmart on the row with Squishmallows as if they were not supposed to be seen except by very little kids.

Glad you guys catch what really is the best and what a theory maker has to say which could be false. True, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure might be the best advertisement ploy for the series, but the best as an experience it is like a trip to the dentist with somebody who is afraid especially if they replaced a well trained dentist with a dentist who never finished dentist school. Although, it’s exaggerated but it actually makes sense. Some movies and fantasy springs I will give credit to those as the best, but everything else is either worse or in between.

    Here's the thing guys you know where the box office numbers come from? They don't come from the studios hear this, this is important to understand when you go to things like Box Office Mojo or things like that, the numbers do not come from the studios that is not how
    box office reporting works. There is a thirdparty company not owned by any of the studios or the theaters. That thirdparty company is called RenTrak and all the numbers from all the regions from every theater automatically get fed to this third Party company they all get reported to them. Now the studios will put out some of their numbers too when they hear about them and stuff like that but the actual numbers you get reported are from an independent thirdparty
    company called RenTrak that then provide, analyze, breakdown and do all the things they need to with that data and then send the data on for public availability So guys this thing about Disney is lying about the numbers is not true they're not the ones reporting the numbers its a thirdparty independent company that analyzes and releases the results and there are massive amounts of safety protocols put in place to guarantee the variability of the data.

They are so out of touch with their customers they don't even know how to communicate with them anymore. If they buy Fortnite, they might actually see a decline in new players because the expectation now is that what ever Disney touches, it turns to crap.

You don't keep on investing now we all know the movie lineup that's coming out within the next two years and it isn't good. They have one movie Lilo & stitch and that's even if they do a good job on it. And one movie out of seven flops are not going to make you money. And when that theme park next to them opens up it's going to literally kick Disney's ass. Now you said on your program that the parks at Disney are like a ghost town you shown the proof in the videos that you showed. To people who watch your content and we all know that within one to two years Disney is going to have to close Disney plus. There is no way you can sustain a platform that is not making you money. This is why Netflix is always going to kick the streaming asses because they've put all their money into their content. Every week Netflix has got one to two or even three series and four or five movies. Disney has got nothing coming out for almost a month. You can't run a streaming program like that

    Also Grace RAndolph lied last week, she said she was no longer sure Moana 2 would hit the coveted B, however, TWO WEEKS EARLIER she said she was positive it would cap out at $800 million.
    It is currently within a hair/'s breadth from catching up to Despicable Me 4.
    BTW, Grace Randolph also claimed that three family films out at the same time hurt each other, this is FALSE information, MOana 2 and Mufasa are literally doing as well as feasibly possible, the only family film that might be hurt by the other two's existence is Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

    I honestly don’t need Disney now until a leadership change happen which I question your stance about your backtracking of earlier criticism of Bob Iger not to mention your bias opinion of giving Inside out 2 8/10 while giving despicable Me 4 /410 that’s how bias you were and also why don’t you just say their names of the pixie duster you know who they are and part of the problem in the Disney fandom especially what had happen with trump when you showed my photo of one of them with a questionable tweet they made, but I feel like that was just something that shouldn’t be shared bc your refusal to address the pixie dusters being part of the problem in the Disney fandom which they made it toxic just shows how much of a coward you are.

    Seriously though , I am a long time subscriber and viewer ….but please “pro” …. Do some video about when you actually liked Disney. Seriously. Why do you care? Show is your passion for when Disney was some instrument in your life. Or shut up and move on. I have those moments as a long time passionate Disney fan. I praise what they used to be and what they meant to me but heavily criticize what modern Disney is.
    What is your Disney connection? wtf is your origin story….. or are you just jumping on a bandwagon to get clicks?
    Seriously . I want to know .

    I love vanilla. Vanilla paste sounds delicious. So to me that’s good. Don’t know why I had to comment that but there you are.
