That's the weird thing. Is Disney Studios printing money because they're so incredibly excellent at making movies or because their competitors are doing so poor

That's the weird thing. Is Disney Studios printing money because they're so incredibly excellent at making movies or because their competitors are doing so poorly at competing?
- je42 10y agoDisney looks like that have a process to deliver great movies. They are not hoping have one. There are engineering one. Repeatable.
- bitJericho 10y agoAt the same time their movie are starting to wear on me, being that the arc is always so similar. If star wars 8 fails to be a novel movie, I think things will not go well for ep 9. Same goes for althe marvel movies.
- maxerickson 10y agoThe Marvel movies are already formulaic. The reasonable success of Ant Man and The Guardians of the Galaxy sort of points to them having a good formula.
- cycomachead 10y agoI'd say somewhere in the middle. Disney has gone through some _really_ rough periods both in the '90s and '00s but now they seem to be on a pretty good upswing. Interestingly, it seems like a significant part of that upswing is through acquisitions (aforementioned Marvel and DC, also Pixar), though they still have an amazing breadth of talent and style.
- aidenn0 10y agoI know nothing about how Disney works internally, but it seems that they've done cross-pollination with their acquisitions as well (I've seen John Lasseter credited on more than one non-pixar film, for example).
