Dexter Fletcher is the new director.
Just a reminder a Murdoch could potentially run the Disney corporation. If you seriously think this is OK, please consider this.

Somewhat related, but a recent YT video by Lindsay Ellis popped up talking about It, Stranger Things, and nostalgia. I'm just putting it here because it's both super entertaining, and I love Ellis' videos.

After two weeks, the overall traction is...fine, I guess. Jumanji though is at a pretty decent start. (BTW, I'm looking at showtimes for that movie from Wednesday to Monday)
The studio is based in Connecticut, so that'll be a problem. But in all honesty, why would Disney get rid of an animation studio, and create negative PR in doing so, when they can capitalize on having three successful animation studios, and create even more potential hit franchises?
