Just focusing now on room and board and she’s 7 so all will be covered. all expenses will be gone so not really worried about income. Wife will still make a shitload in Canada or Hawaii. Going down from 300 to 250 or 225 doesn’t really matter. goes to show you no matter how much you make America still is crap. Not even top 25 lived I England for 3 years. Much better than this festering turd Funny thing is right now a lot of people are moving to America from Canada right now as wages and cost of living is so bad in Canada rn. I have a friends who moved and economically they are living the life (I was stuck here as a loner in doors for months and he was having pool parties in Miami) Last stats I see was 45k Canadians moved to America and only like a few thousand moved here. As I said grass is always greener on the other side. Edited May 27, 2022 by Torontofan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I wonder how long it takes until they finally remove Rogue Squadron from December 2023. Seems obvious that no Star Wars movie is reaching theaters until 2025-2026 at the earliest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so toxic the franchise had to retreat to TV afterwards. If a Star Wars movie actually makes it to the finish line this decade I'll be pleasantly surprised. For now, it's nice and cozy at Disney+. The Mandalorian united the fanbase for honestly the first time in years. Even more than any of the movies after the original trilogy. If I were Taika I'd jump ship before long. Your movie simply isn't happening bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torontofan Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Likely was for the best they take time on new sw films. The new films where just diminishing the brand and not bringing in many new fans I felt. The TV shows have been popular so they will keep people happy in the mean time.

Porthos Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Quote The speculation about Chapek’s future was strong enough to prompt Susan Arnold, chairman of Disney’s board of directors, to issue a vocal statement of support for Chapek amid the shakeup involving Rice and Walden. “The strength of The Walt Disney Company’s businesses coming out of the pandemic is a testament to Bob’s leadership and vision for the company’s future. In this important time of business growth and transformation, we are committed to keeping Disney on the successful path it is on today, and Bob and his leadership team have the support and confidence of the Board,” Arnold said. Sources close to the situation said the decision came down Wednesday from Chapek and caught virtually everyone on the Burbank lot by surprise. Multiple sources say the decision was entirely business and strategy-related and had nothing to do with any personal behavior on Rice’s part. “This is all business,” said a source familiar with the situation. “Peter was blindsided.” "Come for the king, best not miss." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rice will obviously land a very nice job elsewhere, not sure why anyone would want to lead Disney over the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given its insular nature this really isn't a surprise, but in the context of the FL debacle, what a tone deaf statement. Still, Disney looooooves to promote from within with lifers/long termers (from what I understand at least - see the lingering fallout from the Eisner years). Also a sign that Chapek ain't going anywhere, at least in the short term. ... Curious to get @EmpireCity's thoughts on this stunning move and how it's playing outside of the House of Mouse.

Chapek should be fine provided there isn't another major snafu like in March and April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
