those 2 were bad examples since they were delayed many times and having reshoots, were completely panned, also NM released during the pandemic... this looks to me like it'll do around 300m
300m worldwide providing Sonic 2 doesn't steal its thunder.

There’s no way someone as green as Josh is getting the job this quickly. He needs to stay at the parks while someone who has deep connections with Hollywood takes over. They need to go with Peter Rice
Peter Rice?

lol, who at that level IS a mistake-free saint?
And the press surrounding todays walk-out probably does ensure Chapek is done. Oh well. Time for Josh D'Amaro.
Only question is if Chapek can avoid any more major PR blunders until February 2023.

Im surprised people had mouth Bob Iger like he wasn't the best thing that happened to Disney
The best thing that happened to the company, sure. But he was no patron Saint.

The sequel to that DisneyWar book is going to be amazing
"A Mouse Divided" is such a fitting title.

“I can’t think of a better person to succeed me in this role,” Iger said March 11, 2020,
Bet he regrets saying that now.

Even without the LGBTA issues, Chapek has made many, many, mistakes and many, many, powerful enemies.
And done so at a much faster rate than Iger.

Shit Nimona and Pixar stuff was under Iger’s watch but the only reason it got bought up was because of how bad Chapek is at the game.
That’s the big one -

Iger's hands are more filthy than Chapek's but he gets a pass because he is a fanboy favourite..
Iger never actively pissed off any of the talent and ran a good PR game.

Oh, Iger's hands are filthy in this, too. It's just that Chapek's recent blunder opened the floodgates.

Aaand Chapek's career is officially over. The god of modern entertainment Marvel speaking out has to be the straw that breaks the camel's back for Disney's board.
Well, that depends on how things go from here.

yeah cuz recent Netflix walkout over Dave Chapelle's comments worked like gangbusters
I don't think anyone should expect this to bring Chapek down overnight. Rather, I think his tenure is going to end via death by a thousand cuts.

I think it was always the plan only because it's based off an existing IP,unlike the previous 3.
Most likely. But I won't be surprised if he considered making it a Disney+ original and quickly abandoned that plan after the last week and a half.
