Okay.
Disney stock hasn't been this low since the middle of 2014, but I'm sure Avatar's disappointing opening weekend had nothing to do with that.

I don't know anything about her politics, but that's pretty based that she just didn't care.

Yeah. I guess there's no accounting for stupid.
Congrats. Enjoy your sequels whenever they came out.
Eventually there was going to be a movie that came out that I was wrong about and you were right about.
But you see, unlike you, I will come back in here and admit I was wrong. I don't just disappear like you do.
This is how adults act, Second.
Thank you James Cameron, for presenting this learning opportunity for Second.

Quote:6ix, you make predictions. Too many. Adults don’t do that. What do they do, instead, to show adulthood? Adults make promises that they keep. (Non-adults make major promises that they conveniently forget. The majority of Americans forget their most important promises, either the ones expressed, such as in marriage or the ones implied such as you won't lie and won't make false accusations and won't live as worthless a life as you can get away with when free to be as you want.) Here is 6ix making predictions:

Quote:Cameron keeps his promises. All four scripts for Avatar were written and approved by 20th Century before shooting started. Exactly as an adult would, Cameron will make the movies as written.

Quote:6ix, you didn’t notice that Disney stock follows the S&P 500, but with far greater volatility. S&P 500 was down 20% for 2022 and so Disney was down by even more. This is how Disney has always been.

Unlike Charlton Heston, who could not save the planet because he got beat up by gorillas, Chris Evans as Buzz Lightyear is gonna kick James Brolin's giant robot butt.

The big question about Lightyear is who is sticking it in who's butt for kids to see.
The second biggest question is has Disney tarnished their brand so badly that they will have their first Toy Story flop.
The third biggest question is will Disney learn from their mistakes when it doesn't meet expectations.

Disney hasn't met them with most of their recent flicks, especially the Marvel trash they've been putting out.
Let's see how badly they want to stop losing money. If they put any Leftist agenda shit in there you can bet that they're going to have their first Toy Story branded loser on their hands.

Disney’s decision to oppose Florida’s “don’t say gay” law is all about appealing to Disney’s consumers. Republicans who most yearn to make America “great” again — aging, rural, white men — are at the bottom of the consumer totem pole and lack the financial clout to swing the free market. Conservatives just can’t handle the fact that their political ideology is toxic to people who buy tickets for Disney World and Disney movies.
Fox News agitator Laura Ingraham had previously warned that if companies like Disney didn’t “stay in their lane” — focusing on maximizing profit, but shutting up about politics — “everything will be on the table” if Republicans return to power in November, including “your copyright and trademark protection, your special status within certain states, and even your corporate structure itself.” GOP Senator Marsha Blackburn denounced Disney’s criticism as “how the woke left extremists are using corporations to push their agenda.”
Here’s the irony, though: While Disney controls municipal functions in Reedy Creek, its special tax district, it also foots the bill — for the fire department, sewer treatment, and so on. The elimination of that special status thus will save Disney $163 million annually, passing on $1 billion in debt to taxpayers in Orange and Osceola counties and forcing massive local tax hikes. So what in the name of Adam Smith’s invisible hand is going on here?

Quote:Over the last 5 days the S&P 500 is up 0.17% and Disney is up 6.56%. That is "volatility". Over most time periods (a day, a week, a month, a year) Disney will move in the same direction as the S&P 500 but much more than the market index.

All stocks are volatile when compared to other stocks on a daily basis you fuckin' goon. And any individual stock is going to be much more volatile than a collection of 500 stocks. This isn't some magical status that Disney holds vs. the other 499 stocks in the S&P.
Long term is what matters unless you fancy your dumb ass a day trader.
So let's play. I'll revise the numbers for the day.
Disney's all-time high was March 12th of 2021 at $197.16. Today it is $91.97.
Disney stock is worth 46.65% of what it was worth on March 12th of 2021.
The S&P was $3943.34 on March 12th of 2021. Today it is at $3,842.85.
The S&P is worth 97.45% of what it was worth on March 12th of 2021.
What's your fuckin' point, small brain?
And I'll take the fact that you took all day to reply to this one single point of my last post as your concession to all the other points made in the post.
I win again. And again, and again, and again...

Because you don't click links, 6ix, here is the dialog:
Lucy: Look, Charlie Brown! The snow is coming up!
Charlie Brown: It’s not coming up, Lucy. It’s falling down from the sky!
Lucy: Don’t be so stupid! That’s just the wind blowing it around! It’s coming up! It’s coming right up out of the ground!
Lucy: I was right! I was right!
Charlie Brown: I better go home. My stomach is beginning to hurt.
