The internets are pretty much just lit up by fanboys angry about being hyped by /let down by substantial news about Star Wars/etc.

The problem with doing these news "dumps" is that anything that doesn't have a prebuilt fanbase gets ignored.  From all indications Willow+ is nowhere near ready to show anything from (they are still actively in production last I heard) so a jokey Revenge of the Ewok/Lifes Too Short update is probably all they could do outside of maybe some concept art.

It's going to be some trick getting fanboys excited about a period piece Disney+ budget Natilus, I agree.  Though I'd personally love for them to come out of nowhere with a giant hit.  

For a studio that made a big deal about giving its 2022 movies theatrical-only releases... TheWeekendWarrior Nov 12, 08:54

And I was just sent an awards blu-ray for Luca yesterday. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Nov 12, 08:55

Their subscriber growth last quarter was horrific. I think Hocus Pocus 2/Disenchanted/Pinnochio would have had a shot but are risky (inside) notfabio Nov 12, 09:15

I bet suscribers are also dropping... I for once subscribed and Im dropping the service. gogreenytd Nov 12, 09:47

Probably some churn for sure, they admitted they are behind in having new significant content from all their brands every fiscal quarter D+ notfabio Nov 12, 10:13

not a fair comparison given Disney's "family" mission statement but how will they ever create their own Squid Game this way? cake boss! Nov 12, 10:34

they aren't trying to. Lets see how SPIDER-MAN 27 does before we write Marvel off as an IP {nm} Moviesnob Nov 12, 10:44

i'm legit excited by the KENOOOBI! trailer (wish they'd made it as a feature tho) {nm} cake boss! Nov 12, 11:08

Probably a victim of de-risking to $75-100 million budget using Mando tech from a Soloesque $200-250+ notfabio Nov 12, 11:27

most of the audience for this was press/industry. Its a small part of the overall audience Moviesnob Nov 12, 11:36

Hamilton 2: Back for More! It'll be interesting to see if Lin Manuel Miranda's work on Moana remains his biggest Post-Hamilton feature hit notfabio Nov 12, 12:12
