Ironheart isn't being Batgirld, it just has reshoots which they can't do till the strike is over.

[Bob Train]

They greenlighted way too many Disney+ shows based of D-list characters. 

[Mr Terrific]

I’m usually not on board with Bob Train, but why spend time on Agatha and Echo?

That felt like Steph Curry just checking things from 40 feet. 

Why not push more She-Hulk or do Daredevil sooner?

Because they cannot film anything. Echo, Loki, and Agatha are done shooting.

I fixed that for you, Bob.

I didn’t write that well. 
Back when, I would’ve wanted them focusing on more She-Hulk or overpaying Oscar Isaac to get more MK. 
I usually hate the argument against obscure characters because obscure characters can work. I think Echo and Agatha had a chance to click, but they didn’t. 

[SpiderByte]

Kinda premature to say they "didn't click" when neither of them release this year

[Mr Terrific]

I don’t think they clicked as characters in  a way that predicates a series. 
I’m an MCU fan. I’ll watch them.

The Disney+ Hotstar price in Indonesia will increase from the current $13 per year to $52.4 per year from October 3. People are complaining about the recent price hike in the US, but this is a whole other level hike lol

I wonder what new release dates we'll have announced at D23 this Sunday?

[SpiderByte]

I can't imagine too many, it probably won't go that far ahead. At furthest maybe it'll cover Snow White

I don't think Elio or Inside Out 2 will be moving, either.

I don't even think they'll cover as far as Inside Out. I'm thinking it'll be the stuff releasing from now till like February or March

Reading the comments when Iger came back is funny now. Fast-forward a year later and he has done nothing to course-correct Disney. Really nothing different than what Chapek was doing.

I loved Agatha in "Wandavision" b ut have to wonder how well she will work as a main charecter. A lot of charecters who work great as supporting charecters fail as main charecters.

Normally in Hollywood execs are cut slack for the first  18 months since almost all the product coming out was greenlit by their predecesosrs  but Iger is not getting the slack.

Let's face it, a lot of people here have bene waiting for Disney t have a setback.

And  I would take this guy's attacks on Iger more seriosly if he was not a Zaslev fanboy.

[Morieris]

Someone @ me when the D23 panel for movies starts on Sunday, ever since my favorite fansite basically imploded, I have not been in the loop.

[AniNate]

I wouldn't be surprised if Elio and Inside Out get shifted to the summer and fall respectively, much less optimistic about the strikes ending anytime soon than I was two weeks ago. They might've gotten their VA work in but they still might need last minute edits, and if WDA can't have their movie ready by next year Disney doesn't lose anything with their usual summer/fall strategy.

 

Wish is likely staying put at this point though. The film's done and they seem to be starting the marketing campaign in earnest. I expect a new trailer around this convention.

I get it. He was bored, and he missed the limelight and the power. He was up for a challenge. If anyone can improve Disney's prospects, it's Iger.

How are you going to hike your prices by 300% in one sitting?
