Disney Quietly Cancels Movies and TV Shows as Bob Iger Scrambles to Hoodwink Investors Into Thinking the Company Is Well-ManagedIger is feeling the pressure from Nelson Peltz, Jay Rasulo, and Trump buddy Ike Perlmutter. Iger pushes back against the idea that there is "Marvel fatigue" keeping people from watching Disney's crap movies. But, to make that case, he's forced to admit the real problem is that Disney has been making a lot of crap movies and TV shows, and that's what people are fatigued about. Disney CEO Bob Iger is pursuing a major overhaul of the company's film output. Last month, She-Hulk "star" Tatiana Maslowski (that's my best guess, I'm not looking this no-name up) confirmed that Disney had shelved any second season to the terrible, terrible show. I wonder now if she had been asked to put this information out there in a soft, ripple-free sort of way. Oh by the way, she made the nonsensical claim that the first season had spent all the money budgeted for a second season so that's why the series had been cancelled. Sure. Sure, it was just about spending next year's money this year, and not about She-Hulk being a terrible, terrible show that attacked the main audience for Marvel content.
... He watches movies, after they've already been shot and edited into a coherent form, "three to five times," and he's saying that is the way he guarantees excellence? He watches movies "three to five times." Only in Hollywood could this ever be put forward as workin' hard. Disney+, which is a failure on par with Brian Stelter, continues losing subscribers. There was another huge wave of cancellations in the UK. From Newsweek: The embattled company looks to be dealing with a potential public relations nightmare in the United Kingdom where the cost of an annual Disney+ subscription is giving some subscribers sticker shock followed by out right cancellations: John Nolte adds:
Bob Iger is desperate to show that Disney Minus is profitable. It's actually losing billions of dollars, but to hold off Nelson Peltz's challenges, he has to claim it's turning a profit. A guy who calls himself "Lew Wasserman's Ghost" previewed the accounting tricks that Bob Iger will use to make Disney Minus seem like a good investment: they will take some of the horrible projects they've developed for Disney Minus and release these crap TV shows in an edited form as "movies" in theaters, where they will be laughed at before bombing. But the point isn't to make money in theaters -- it's to remove the costs of making them from Disney Minus's ledger and put those costs on Disney's movie studios budget. By shifting the costs of these terrible, wreteched TV shows from the Disney Minus vertical to another vertical, Iger will reduce the costs of Disney Minus -- on paper, anyway -- and make Disney Minus closer to profitable. On paper, again. This is all a lie and a scam but he needs this lie to reassure investors. And what else will these woke corporations have to do to show a profit, even if only a paper one? Well, they'll have to fire a lot of their bloated, untalented, charity-hire staff. And how will they do that? They'll replace these poor performers with the also-poor-performing, but very cheap, AI option. A marketing professor says that corporations will increasingly use AI to slash their workforces. But he says they would have had to cut these bad employees anyway. They'll just use AI as "corporate Ozempic" to shed deadweight. Lots of big tech companies are slimming down and cutting their workforces. This corporate trimming of the fat has become common in the tech sector in the last couple years. At Disney, they'll soon be firing all those untalented Tumblr "artists" they hired for their animation department. Animation will be heavily, heavily shifted to AI. Human beings will still draw the "key frames," but humans will be replaced as far as creating the interpolations, the small frame-by-frame changes to get from one key frame to the next. All of the crap animators Disney hired in the past couple of years will be back to annoying people on Tumblr soon enough. Finally, Warner Bros. has finally shut down woke anime studio Rooster Teeth. Back in August 2020, Rooster Teeth loudly broadcasts on Twitter, "This is your regular reminder that we happily and proudly stand for social justice. We have no tolerance for racism, sexism, or harassment of any kind." S a D, B's. | Recent Comments
