Potiki Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Dividend is coming back by the end of the Calendar year (a vote will take place but I imagine it will go through), should be good news for the stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably saw how Puss and Minions sequels did compared to their original movies and figured that the market place is asking for franchise animated films. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildphantom Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Those sequels - that’s one way to get their audience used to coming out for their animated family movies I guess. Desperate. once the studio that only made major animated sequels if the stories were there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I hope they at least space out Frozen 3 and 2topia so it's not 2 sequels in a row release date wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wild Eric Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 There's going to be like 10 Toy Story sequels by the time I'm like 65. They'll probably use Tom Hanks and Tim Allen's voices through AI mumbo-jumbo shit. I don't think I can handle it my dudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I forgot there was a Toy Story 4 tbh. Zootopia was fun though, I’m surprised it’s taken so long for a sequel, it made $1b. Moana seems to do consistently well on Disney+ though, so they should do a sequel to that instead of a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potiki Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) 23 hours ago, Potiki said: More funding for ABC (Sports, News, Unscripted and Scripted), Disney Channels, Nat Geo, FX and Searchlight with an emphasis on dual revenue streams (Broadcast, Cable and Theatrical respectively then Streaming) although there will still be certain titles that are streaming only Bob Iger just mentioned this, said Abbott Elementary has a roughly 60 year old viewer vs. Hulu with 30 year old viewer. Best to monetise across multiple revenue streams especially if they are so radically different. Although seems like general entertainment funding is going down some so might have been wrong with that part (or I misunderstood) or it changed.

Inflation definitely helps and I could see Toy story and Frozen combining for $3B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that long ago! I’m talking about Disney animation now. We had Rescuers Down Under, and then Frozen 2 and Ralph 2. That was it. For them to announce they’re off and running on Zootopia and Frozen new sequels says everything about what Chapek has done. They need to undo that audience behaviour and sequels is the obvious way to do that. I get it, but it is a shame. Some great original stories probably sidelined for the time being because of what Chapek did. You could guarantee people would come out for whatever they made animation wise for a couple of decades, and he screwed it. Iger will sort it out though, I’ve no doubt.
