Is Disney Doomed?

[moreorless]

Leaving aside the moaning of men suffering from incurable culture war brain rot I think really a lot of Disney's success was based on buying out younger studios which had more creative vitality to them.

Both Pixar and Marvel weren't bogged down by uncreative exec politics and Disney mostly just took a hands off approach with them and let them carry on doing what was sucessful and already making money. Lucasfilm I think didnt go as well because their wasn't that same creative drive there and Starwars struggled more as a result.

Disney hasn't really had that injection of fresh blood, a new hungry studio with a formula for success in the last decade. They bought Fox but thats not really given that an established formula for success. Pixar and Marvel are gradually diminishing, Starwars may have been damaged as a larger blockbuster draw by the sequels, the live action Disney remakes also getting played out...
