My gut feeling is they’re using Studio financing to make what they consider Disney+ original content. Disney+ doesn’t have the money to make these movies themselves while the studio stays afloat on Marvel alone. If I was CEO that’s how I’d do it anyway.I'm seeing it because A list.....but wonder if this will even be a hit on Disney plus. It has no music and kinda looks like the Buzz movie from earlier this year
I hope its good but with what I feel like is almost no effort to hype this film up, its hard to know why Disney is making all these films just to kinda crap them out and then move on to the next film by Disney coming out
Makes sense but then its confusing how the Disney Plus App is losing money....while literally gaining content for "free" from other sourcesMy gut feeling is they’re using Studio financing to make what they consider Disney+ original content.

They’re pouring biliions and billions into it. That’s how.Makes sense but then its confusing how the Disney Plus App is losing money....while literally gaining content for "free" from other sources
Disney should find a way to partner with AMC/Regal and get first episodes and finales in theaters to make some money thenThey’re pouring biliions and billions into it. That’s how.
It would only be a tiny amount of money though and would defeat the purpose of series being exclusive to the platform.Disney should find a way to partner with AMC/Regal and get first episodes and finales in theaters to make some money then

Movies though? I fully believe many D+ movies would do at the very least okay box office. Rescue Rangers, Hocus Pocus 2, Disenchanted, Hamilton, Soul, Luca, Turning Red, etc.
I’ll wait until Disney+ unless I see it with A list when I see Avatar. Sounds like a solid movie though.What a beautiful movie. The animation is stunning. The world designed and built is a feast for the eyes. The score is gorgeous, ethereal, and lush.
At its core, it’s a simple and heartfelt story about family. Father and son. Parental expectations, fear of failure, and pride. There are inclusive elements that do not feel forced, and remain natural. Very well placed, enhancing the movie.
The message about working in harmony with our world, and the final homage to the story of turtle island with that last zoom out, beautiful and important.
Simply put, a great family friendly adventure film. Another great entry to the Disney canon, and well worth a visit to your local cinema.
Opened to only $18.6M domestic (for the Five day!) and $27.8M worldwide on a in total on a $180M budget. Another big animation flop from WDAS or Pixar. Of course there was no marketing for this movie so that's a small part, but many, Iger has some big fixes to do with the animation departments in returning them to being profitable studios.
Step one should be to stop spending ridiculous amounts of money on these films, but also like, just do simple things like not making the films DOA by just dropping them in the theater with limited to no marketing and also just let them, never dump them on streaming again, and stop sending the movies to streaming after 30 days. People have caught tf on. I know I did a long while ago about Disney's stragegy about when films hit theaters and barely see anything they put in theaters anymore when I used to see almost every animated release in theaters.
Why did I change? Because if I know a film is gonna be on Disney+ 30 days later, why would I spend $50 or so going to a theater. I only go to theaters to see franchise releases these days. I'd love to support other movies, but the theater I frequent most (Universal CityWalk) changed from an AMC so I can't use A-List there anymore and I pay for too many streaming/monthly services these days and am trying to cut down since I realized i'm not spending a ton of money and barely watching anything on most services.
