The last decade has not been kind to Disney shareholders under CEO Bob Iger’s leadership. A comparison to where the value was 10 years ago reveals a giant gulf between the Mouse House performance and the general S&P500 in the same time period. But just how bad is it?
After the last Disney Company earnings call and the subsequent 7%+ drop in stock value last week, investors are beginning to look at comparisons between Bob Iger’s corporation and other major entertainment businesses on the New York Stock Exchange, particularly as Netflix splits its stock.
Huge moves are happening at Disney after the stock dropped more than 7% following a rough Q4 and the beginning of Bob Iger’s final year as CEO of Disney. It turns out, the company Walt built might actually be dropping diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives substantively rather than the projection many anticipated.
Captain Marvel is about to be a princess… but not a Disney Princess. No, Nintendo is the new studio preparing an all-out push against Mickey Mouse, and their newly announced Rosalina movie star will be played by none other than the MCU’s controversial Brie Larson!
A strong cold front sweeping through Central Florida is setting up what may be one of the coldest wind‐chill episodes in recent memory for the Orlando area. According to the forecast for Walt Disney World Resort, Tuesday morning (November 11, 2025) will see actual...
Just when you thought it was safe to call a flop a flop, Hollywood is not having any of it. The extremely left film that glorifies all kinds of division, One Battle After Another, was a shocking financial disaster for Warner Bros Discovery and a black eye for Leonardo DiCaprio’s career. But the PR wizards of Warner are hard at work with their Hollywood colleagues to make all that fail just disappear. This time, however, their techniques are truly something to behold!
Zohran Mamdani’s victory, making him the first Muslim and first South Asian mayor of New York City, sparked a wave of congratulatory posts from Hollywood actors, comedians, fashion-world figures, and global film talent with ties to his family and his Queens roots.
Here’s the twist Hollywood didn’t see coming: the superhero everyone mocked in October 2022 now looks downright healthy next to this October’s headliners. In fact, The Rock’s Black Adam, a perceived total failure just a few years ago, would have been a dream come true for this year’s October box office. It’s a stark reminder of just how far the movie industry has fallen and a giant question of whether it can ever come back again!
Late Thursday night into Friday morning (around 11:30 pm–12:00 am ET, October 30→31, 2025), all Disney-owned linear networks, including ABC (and local ABC stations), ESPN’s suite of channels, FX, Freeform, Disney Channel, and National Geographic, were removed from YouTube TV after the companies failed to reach a new carriage agreement before the prior deal expired. Viewers reported the channels going dark just before the midnight deadline.
Could the U.S. government shutdown ultimately harm Hollywood?
The government shutdown threatens to take away food stamps (discretionary income) and could gravely damage family movie money as a result. With Avatar: Fire and Ash coming in late and Stranger Things mostly playing on New Year’s in 2026, can the domestic box office even match the horrible totals for last year?
Note: This article presumes the accuracy of the TEA 2024 Report for the purposes of reporting attendance numbers. Magic Kingdom was recently declared the winner by the Themed Entertainment Association for attendance in 2024. But what if we told you the Walt Disney...
The Themed Entertainment Attractions report was released for 2024 and Magic Kingdom was, once again, the most visited theme park in the world according to the analysis. However, it wasn’t by much, and now, with some deep investigation into the numbers, there’s something true Disney afficionados (and perhaps investors) just have to see. It turns out, that when we apply the likely calculations TEA is using to determine the attendance, Magic Kingdom actually dropped in per session ticket sales.
