Bob Iger comments re: MCU/Disney+

[SUPERECWFAN1]

I think Disney should consider working with external creators to create content for the service like Netflix.

The only thing is Disney won't own the IP but if they are determined to cut costs, then they will have to consider it. I think (and I am entirely unsure here) WB is considering something like this for Max.

Iger is sounding like they are serious about scaling back Disney operations. At the moment, they are considering selling off part of their Indian business and might even sell ABC, Iger seems really determined to scale back Disney's operations.

Selling ABC makes sense due to the fact Disney has struggled for years since they bought it in 1996. Unloading it would help them.

The biggest problem with Disney (and all the streaming services, really) is lack of marketing. They hardly ever advertise their shows! It makes no sense. There's no commercials, ads, nothing to let the general audience know what's out and what's coming. Then they just cancel stuff for having low viewership smh

True. I recently watched two mini-series on Disney+, "Welcome to the Chippendales" and "The Dropout". I thought they were both pretty good and yet I saw zero marketing/advertising for them here in the UK.

I watched Welcome to Chippendales on Hulu earlier this year and it was really good! I don't know there was so much scandal associated with the brand. Seeing how it all unfolded was interesting.
