Maybe they should lay some people off to cut costs. Start with Kathleen Kennedy.

So crazy considering how successful they were at the box office alone in 2019.

Disney won't go bankrupt. There have been rumors of Apple buying it

Oh, good, only Tim Cook can make Disney a boring, uninteresting company

I was about to dispute you, but I looked at their financials

How many months of operating does that pay for?

conetah

We just paid $20 to watch Onward

You could've paid more at the theater
