The question now should be will Disney make the end of the year if this crisis is going to last longer?

Disney can buy 10 countries with their own money.

Really then why did they need a seven billion dollar loan? And from the looks of it they will need more if this Corona thing last any longer and they already lost 1.4 bilion in the first quarter of this year.And Disney (unlike most other studios) relies heavily on their income on their Theme parcs and cruises which is currently losing them an awfull lot of money .Disney brought the financial mess upon them themselves by being too greedy ,they shouldn't have bought FOX for like 60-70 bilion that is going to break them up if this thing last longer than a month or three.But Viacom/CBS is in much worse shape and they already were in finacial troubles before the whole Corona thing hit.

But who is going to buy FOX for most studios in Hollywood the finacial situation is similar and spending a lot of money seems out of the question.

Where the hell did you get Disney needs a 7 billion dollar loan?

And Disney is unbelievably rich and powerful. There's no denying regarding this.

Well they needed a 7 bilion in april and the current news is that they loaned another 11 bilion dollars to keep the lights on remember what I said that a large amount of the income of Disney is generated in their theme parcs and cruises and since nobody is visiting those because of the current crisis they are not generating money in fact maintaining these parcs is costing Disney a fortune .And no obviously Disney isn't THATrich and powerfull since the already needed to loan 18 bilion many financial analists have already indicated that buying FOX for 60 bilion wasn't such a smart move after all.And under normal circumstances they would have had at least two or three movies that made them a bilion + each was enough to cover for a lot of costs now that there are no theatre releases there is no longer the income of the movies to plug the holes the theme parcs cause.

No. Disney is really that rich and that powerful.

Regarding those 18 billions of loan, I honestly don't buy that.

Sorry it was 5 billion not 7 but here is proof of what I said(although in a diagram in the second article they mention a combined 7 billion loan in March/April 2020);

And from 2 days ago the 11 billion dollar loan;

But hey if you don't believe the press and want to ignore reality and keep on living in Neverland,fine by me.

Viacom/CBS would be a more logical company to overtake plus it currently is relatively cheap Viacom/CBS is currently valued at 10 billion but then there is the 20 bilion debt viacom/CBS has so 20 billion +5 billion (1 billion to buy off Miss Redstone and a 4 billion dollar injection for making new content) so 25 billion will do fine against FOX 's price (which even devalued )will probably costs like 50 billion.For that Netflix will double it's film content with the Paramount/Dreamworks library and double it's series content with all the CBS shows plus it will broaden, it's comedy offerings with Comedy Central ,childrens content with Nickleodeon and music with MTV/VH1 and the oferings of Showtime ,CBS news ,CBS sports and various other TV channels in the US and abroad will further diversify Netflix's content plus it will give Netflix access to theatres to show their movies nationwide because of National Amusements Inc. that has access to 1500 screens.

X-men is currently with Disney after the buying of FOX all FOX content concerning Marvel has now been placed under the Marvel group.:Like I said FOX currently is double the price of Viacom/CBS plus for that money they will get less plus Viacom/CBS's activities better supplement Netflix's activities and plans for the future.

You are the one who keeps crying only because I said Disney is extremely powerful and rich and can buy anything.

That's a fact. If you prefer to keep crying about this then that's your damn problem.

You are the one who is crying here I gave you proof and explained why Disney's financial status is not so rocksteady as you think it is but hey ignore reality if you want but the fact remains that a) Disney needed to lend money and probably is going to lend more money if the current crisis last any longer b)Disney isn't making a lot of money on Disney+ something like 20-30 milion per months(million not billion).C) The theme parcs which are the biggest source of income are shut down or only serve at the minimum of capacity which makes them unprofitable and costs Disney tons of money D) thye don't have movies to release for in the cinema which they are not doing because cinema's only function at a minimum of viewrs because of the crisis making it very unprofitable to release movies which would normaly earn them bilions of dollars each yar.

It's official there is a a Lucas Cut of The Rise Of Skywalker.

Overlord DVD's YouTube channel sports a number of Star Wars "leaks" which allegedly come from Disney insiders. Take that with a rather large grain of salt. But if you want to entertain what he's saying, then Disney is absolutely not done with Star Wars as a franchise, though they're very probably going to shift gears and try to earn back the fans' love for the mythos.
