What Iger said only one year ago. Clearly, he didn't believe any of this.

So the movie had two rounds of reshoots and might have had a third round if not for the strikes but in Iger's opinion there wasn't enough executive meddling?
Not really as big of a deal as the headlines make it out to be.

So true. The moment I see somebody saying that the game failed because of Ms. Marvel I tune out whatever else they have to say. Same goes for those who say her comic keeps getting "cancelled". Just a bad faith argument from a person who has no clue what the comic book market looks like nowadays.

Iman Vellani gets to co-write another 4-issue Ms. Marvel mini. Happy for her, would love for her to have a career as a comic writer even if the MCU acting gig doesn't pan out.
Here's a hypothetical. If Ms. Marvel was made into a movie instead and came out last year, how different would The Marvels' box office be? CBMs were still doing pretty well last year so if Ms marvel had made around 400M at the box office, would that have helped The Marvels in a meaningful way?
Why would Disney even try to fudge numbers at this point? It's a complete box office failure by every metric possible. Would they really care if it's #3 or if it does more than Morbius?
