  @ManaByte Again...the lord's work. The same thing happened in the MCU. "Movies fell off" when actually nothing will or has beaten Endgame. Doesn't mean the movies weren't good just meant that NOTHING was BEATING ENDGAME. SW is making bank for Disney. The movies just remind people to buy.

  I've directed Nestlé, Disney, Starbucks campaigns. 12-person crews. Budget discipline is the whole job. Sora burned more in a single day than most commercial productions cost. Nobody building real work was using it. The numbers proved it: 1M users down to 500K in 16 months.

  @ManaByte Here’s an idea. Maybe Disney should cut the budgets even further just to increase the chances of being profitable? Surely, that’s what matters most considering the current state of the franchise. Problem solved!

  This is what I think is going on with the Duke-Amazon deal and why the Big Ten is whining. It's all about a direct-to-consumer model and risk allocation. Let's start with the law because the law explains the deal. College sports media rights flow through a stacked architecture that schools rarely discuss in public but that governs everything they can and cannot do. Every ACC member, Duke included, has executed a Grant of Rights to the conference— an irrevocable assignment of media rights running through 2036. The ACC then licensed that aggregated catalogue to ESPN under a parallel agreement of comparable duration. The Big Ten and Fox sit atop an identical structure on their side of the ledger. The consequence is that Duke does not own the broadcast rights to its own basketball games in any meaningful sense. ESPN does. And Michigan's rights belong to Fox. That architecture is the entire reason the Amazon deal required permission rather than a checkbook, as suggested by @RossDellenger. Duke could not license a game to Amazon any more than a tenant could sell the building. What Duke could do is ask the actual rights holder — ESPN, through the ACC — to carve out three games from its exclusive bundle and allow Amazon to distribute them. ESPN agreed. Dellenger's reporting suggests ESPN extracted a licensing fee plus future Duke scheduling commitments in return. That is a sublicense, structured as a limited waiver of exclusivity, and it is the legal mechanism that makes the entire arrangement possible. Without ESPN's consent, the deal is a straightforward breach of the Grant of Rights cascade. With it, the deal is unremarkable contract law. Which brings us to the Big Ten. Its claim that it "owns" the Duke-Michigan game is the sound of a conference dressing up a contractual reciprocity provision as a property right. The actual mechanism the B1G is invoking is an alternation arrangement between the conferences and their rights holders for neutral-site games played in shared metropolitan territory with New York, a virtual home game for Duke, being the one at issue. Even taking that at face value, it is a contract claim running between the conferences, not a proprietary interest enforceable against Duke, Amazon, or Madison Square Garden. And the party whose alternation turn was supposedly violated, ESPN, has already blessed the deal. It is hard to articulate a coherent legal theory under which the B1G or Fox enforces ESPN's contractual entitlement against ESPN's wishes. The B1G's posture is a negotiating marker, not a litigation position, and any honest reading of the underlying agreements would say so. So why did ESPN say yes? This is where the law stops explaining things and strategy takes over. I'm not just guessing here. ESPN launched its standalone streaming flagship into a market in which the most important commercial question in sports media remains unanswered: will cord-cutters pay to watch a Tuesday-night college basketball game? Disney has spent the better part of a decade rearranging its streaming portfolio without producing a clean answer, and the cost of running that experiment on ESPN's own platform —with ESPN's own marquee inventory and ESPN's own reputation on the line — is considerable. The Pac-12 tried a version of this experiment with Apple two years ago. Apple would not pay linear money, the schools would not accept streaming-only reach, and the conference disintegrated before the deal did. The lesson the industry absorbed was that premium college sports was not yet ready for direct-to-consumer exclusivity. ESPN needs to know whether that lesson still holds, and it would prefer not to find out the hard way. The structure of the Duke deal seems to be the answer. Amazon bears the production cost, the promotional spend, and the conversion risk against Prime's installed 200M+ worldwide subscriber base. ESPN collects a licensing fee, future scheduling inventory it can deploy on its own terms, and a clean read on whether streaming-exclusive premium college basketball actually works as a commercial proposition. If Amazon's experiment succeeds, ESPN learns the model and pulls future games back in-house at the next negotiation. If it fails, Amazon absorbs the loss and ESPN quietly concludes the market is not ready, having paid nothing for the information beyond the foregone value of three games it was compensated for anyway. That is not a concession. It is a hedged bet, and a clever one. Fox cannot afford the same posture, which is why the B1G is whining. Fox One and Tubi are real but considerably smaller than the combined Disney streaming footprint, and every individual rights leak feels more existential to a network without the same DTC depth to fall back on. ESPN can be magnanimous because Disney has room to be patient. Fox and the B1G have less room, so the B1G is now tasked with escalating a routine reciprocity dispute into a public claim of ownership it cannot sustain. That tells you more about the B1G and Fox's competitive position than it does about the merits of the contract. The deeper point, and the one worth dwelling on, is that the rights architecture schools accepted a decade ago to keep their conferences intact is now being tested by the schools themselves. Duke did not break the system. Duke worked within it, asked ESPN for permission, gave up something in return, and brought a streaming partner to the table that the network was apparently happy to let bear the risk of an experiment Disney has not figured out how to run on its own. The B1G and Fox would prefer that schools not learn this trick. They are about to learn it anyway. And the next negotiation, whenever it comes, will reflect what Amazon's three games taught everyone about who the audience really is and what they will pay to watch. The Duke-Amazon arrangement is being described as a turning point for college sports media. My honest guess is that it's more of a market test, structured by a rights holder who needed information from a 200M+ subscriber base more than it needed three basketball games. It's now being resisted by a competitor who cannot afford to be that patient. The law explains how the deal got done. The strategy explains why ESPN wanted it done this way. And the Big Ten's complaint, stripped of its proprietary language, is the complaint of a network that wishes it had thought of it first.

  @Kylel999 @REALANGLGRL @cvpayne Disney went WOKE HIRING GROWN MEN WITHOUT PROPERLY VETTING THEM WAS A MASSIVE ERROR. DISNEY IS LITERALLY PUSHING WOKE IDEOLOGY ON CHILDREN! Don’t get me wrong, I used to LOVE an occasional drunk tour of the gay bars, watching drag queens lip singing Cher songs then heading to the bar with the best music, dancing, lighting and smoke 💨! But I was 21. The bars were 21+.

  @rBillSimmonsPod Bill, I know the genie is out the bottle but PLEASE bang the drum louder on how terrible of an idea it is to move NBA games off of cable TV. Our cable bills are already high enough to subsidize Disney/ESPN, NBC etc. Now we have to pay even more for Amazon and Peacock? Madness!!

  @kiravvy8 yeah ddba isn't awful, but the pacing really hinders it. netflix dd gives you time to breathe and sit with the characters. it feels raw and grounded. imo the disney+ show is jam-packed with far too many storylines for 8 eps and daredevil himself feels like an afterthought.

  @RobProvince Won't be watching Kennedy and Disney destroyed my lifelong love of SW. I have a 40K+ Follower Instagram SW page I basically lost all interest in because SW is such a dead issue now. They killed a lifelong passion that badly. It would take far too much self denial to fool myself into enjoying the **** they put out. It's embarrassing and only appeals to the cry at everything new SW Fan . SW is dead.

  @Sksj002 This is a Disney problem. I think that they still have a massive PR problem and they are failing to see it or address it. Additionally, after they start to correct it, they need to restart embracing the creation of stories specific audiences want. I, for one, really like the recent season. Though I’m not in pins and needles waiting for the next episode to come out.

  @ImmortalKekulis @Azrael007x @sw_holocron Resistance was it and it was ended before it had the chance to get better and improve. There were a few tie in novels to help expand the era too... Me personally I wanted to learn more but Disney is stubbornly refusing to go there. So all we got are the problematic movies.

  @OffhandDisney Disney fans who are adults are great (such as myself,) but Disney adults suck. They cheer every lazy IP overlay, every gutted classic, every half-baked show that just parades characters for recognition. They don’t need quality, theming, or creativity, they just want more Mickey.

  Also Alden Einrechen was never the problem with Solo. The problem with Solo was simply that the movie sucked. They could’ve had prime Harrison Ford in the role and it still would’ve been extremely forgettable. Disney threw him under the bus and everyone bought it for some reason

  @ScottGustin Only problem is, if I signed back up for Disney+, the only other thing I could afford to ever use, is the store. But it is so inconvenient and expensive I might do it once or twice a year max. I think Disney has just priced and inconvenienced themselves out of being a one-stop shop and entertainment app.

  Michael F Kane (@MichaelFKane) reported 53 minutes ago

  @ThePaceForward The budget took a huge hit at the start of Disney era (which recovered nicely by the end and the quality of the render goes up) But the reduced budget actually forced them to focus more on a smaller story and characters which paid off very well. As a result it feels more like the original trilogy than the prequels. Not a big expansive story but all more intimate one. Ezra and Kaanan's stories are among the best of the Disney era if you ever can get over the 'shock' lol. It doesn't help that the worst episode of the series and C-3P0 at his worst. They have never figured out what to do with that guy since the OT. 😬
