| trunkswd said: I didn't much attention to it, so the political stuff didn't bother me. The movie just looked bad from the trailers, so when it flopped I wasn't surprised. Disney has been all over the place the last few years with some of the biggest movies in history followed by some of the biggest flops ever. |
Disney has had plenty of down periods financially and artistically. They are a studio and company full of that over time.
Right now they are in a weird hybrid spot of a ton of money from how big they are in parks, merchandise, film, tv, etc but also they have some huge flops and a lot of products that are considered meh to bad.
The peak of the company in all metrics (other than perhaps sheer revenue or profit) was around 1989-1999. Basically, the Disney Renaissance, expansion of parks, Pixar's early films, entertaining television, Disney Store expansion, start of the Disney Cruise Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King on stage, etc.
Eisner had a lot of negative qualities, especially 2000-2005. But he, the other leaders, and everyone under them put out some incredible stuff.
