I think that's a naive way to look at things.

I do believe the House of Mouse isn't going to be anywhere near dead any time soon, but boy will it be shittier for the foreseeable future.

They're probably fine, but I will say, I went to Target a lot around the holidays last winter, and every time I was there, there was a loooooooot of Wish merchandise that did not appear to be moving. Always the same stuff there on the shelves. If the movies AND the toy sales are dipping, then they might have a reason to panic.

[kaijinscendre]

Right? There is a reason that Disney is working with Sony to make good Spider-man movies. Disney owns the merch rights. That is where the big money is.

[(Anonymous)]

Disney's relying a lot on it's reputation right now, and it's really not working. People will buy merchandise for their kids (or themselves!) as long as they can justify affording it but if the kid isn't interested, they're not going to buy it. If they feel ripped off, they won't pay.

What Disney seem to have forgotten is that people don't want "woke" or "traditional" or "genre subversive" movies, they want engaging stories, interesting characters, and sincere themes. Unfortunately the former provide a checklist and the latter doesn't.

[(Anonymous)]

No one's saying they're going to be dead. But they are desperate to make more money. They're in a really bad financially and their stockholders are pissed. None of this is really a secret.

[(Anonymous)]

They've hit a creative rut for sure but yeah they aren't actually dying or anything, there's just a general issue in a lot of companies that are built on a 'line must go up' model that they must constantly make money or they're 'loosing' it, which is daft but that kind of US capitalist business model is daft.

They'll be fine, I just hope they regain the spark of creativity they seem to have lost atm. Or at least let the actual creative people have looser reins to make the fun stories they want to.

[(Anonymous)]

Is anyone really buying merch for the live-action movies?

[meadowphoenix]

i think what is "dying" for a conglomerate is not the same as for a normal business. the question is not "can they make money" the questions is "is their share of the market increasing for decreasing" and "what part of the business lifecycle are they in? desperately trying to increase investor profits? that's not good." a healthy company does not have a board coup. and if you're not healthy, you're dying.

I haven't watched this movie in ages but I want to rewatch it now. Also, any fics OP?

OP to secret maker

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks for turning my comment into a secret!

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I can kind of see it.

Definitely need a rewatch now. I remember it being impossible to find streaming. Hopefully I still have a file somewhere or can get a new one.

[(Anonymous)]

I remember hating the actress that played Bethany. I just thought she could not act worth a dime and was poor casting. But its been years since I watched it, so it might be interesting to rewatch and see if/how my perceptions have changed!

[(Anonymous)]

I always shipped Bartleby and Loki, but it's been a long time since I've had a re-watch, I'll have to pay attention to Bartleby and Bethany next time.

You heard it here, folks. Xander Harris is unrealistically perfect.

I have negative interest in this show, but it angers people I dislike, so I’m rooting for it out of spite.

I've never watched any of the Jurassic Park movies, but I'd be so down for a movie unrelated to that franchise featuring the prehistoric sea creatures we had. they're much more frightening to me, especially because we'd be under water (or stop it, like sailors of old).
