Disney's decline

I got a tonne of Disney stock as well and I am nervous. With the theme parks doing well and their cinematic catalogue some analysts had them headed towards $200. It's $137 today which to me is criminally low for a stock with this much cache.

The parks and all that Princesses stuff will still be popular but entities like Fox & ESPN are dragging them down. I might unload after Frozen 2 & Star Wars.
 
It's not that Sumi is not Chinese enough, in fact ppls in China consider him typical Chinese. They want some with bigger eyes, double eye lids with a more western shaped nose. Well at least he is tall enough at 6 feet. I think he will do fine.
 
I bought Disney in 2006 - a $12,000 investment that is now $93,000 + divnds, which I've taken in cash. I'd say a pretty good investment. Over the years, the stock has had periods of stagnation while the "big thinkers" try to figure out value. I say, screw them! Are people going to buy Disney content, go to their theme parks, buy lunch boxes and action figures, go to the movies or buy the next Lion King DVD? Of course.

There's your answer.

I don't follow Disney because it appears they don't make movies about normal people. Thor and Captain America are not normal people.
 
Disney stock trading at all time high relatively modest p/e best in class. Heard their parks despite not all having the biggest rides are well run clean quite pleasant for adults too.
 
Am I the only one that liked Solo?

I’m tired of the Marvel movies, it’s just more of the same.

Innovation is happening at Amazon and Netflix. Apple would like to join in but I don’t see them tarnishing their tech prude image with anything controversial/ interesting.
 
Normal people are boring. Who wants to watch normal people? Oh ya, only Darts.

Most movies and TV shows are about the trials and tribulations of everyday people and not Marvel superheroes or Star War/cartoon/comic book characters.

Exactly and humans being by nature are not boring.

Ever watched Molly's Game? It's still in high rotation on Crave. Nobody saw it when it was in the theaters, now it's in demand. If you want to find out why Tobey Maguire has been blackballed by Hollywood, he hasn't had work in three years, watch the film. Michael Cera plays him in the film but not by name. If Disney gains a stranglehold on films, this is the type of film that wont get made.

With a few extra pounds JC looks sensational!
