Disney’s streaming division posts first profit in Q4 – IT – News

You honestly don’t understand? First, platforms like IMDB and RT are owned by major studios and regularly lose numbers. This has been proven time and time again. But let’s leave that aside for a moment, there are other objective signals that are no less clear.

There’s Disney and there’s Star Wars, let’s take the latter because it’s the one that gets the most hype. The stories are objectively worse than their predecessors. You can dissect the story and the hero’s journey isn’t simply followed and certain facts are presented without explanation. Unlike its predecessors. Even the original writer of Star Wars has publicly pulled his hands off Star Wars because HIS Star Wars is no more.

The box office numbers also speak for themselves. They take one film after another (2 billion, 1.3 and another 1.0). Popular films don’t do that, bad films do. And on top of that, production budgets are increasing (250, 300, 420 million), profits are decreasing and, by Hollywood standards, the latter is losing money.

Assistant. Disney refuses to release detailed viewing figures, but third-party sites like Nielsen Ratings keep the numbers so you can compare. Series after series has seen viewing minutes drop, with The Acolyte being a complete disaster. Only 38% made it to the final episode, with the rest having since dropped out.

But other Disney projects aren’t doing so well. Practically the entirety of Phase 4 (with a few exceptions) is a downward spiral if you use the above method, but which Marvel movie is suddenly good? Deadpool & Wolverine , which is likely to cross the billion mark after this weekend. And guess what. No one woke up to this movie, it was just plain old entertainment with no politically correct references.

You don’t have to watch. In fact, that’s why I and many others don’t. And the numbers don’t lie. There are plenty of movies and TV shows that feature good female characters. Movies with gay people that I enjoy watching because they have a well-written script. But these aren’t modern movies/TV shows. You know what movie it was, for example? Star Wars. Princess Leia was the leader of the rebels and she was really bad.

It’s not about orientation. No, it’s about being woke, it’s about objectively bad stories, and it’s about consciously portraying the original fanbase as sexist and other types of -ist. The act is deliberately used as a shield against poor performance.
