It’s going to take a deft hand to navigate the company through the next 10 years. They have the business chops, but do they have the right judgement?

Its surprising to me how obvious the "lets remake a bunch of films who's central premise was established nearly 100 years ago" mistake was. This was always going to piss off a good portion of their audience regardless of the approach.

Approach 1 : Stay true to the central premise of the story (the "woke" audience was going to get pissed)

Approach 2 : Remake the stories to be more culturally sensitive (the "maga" audience was going to get pissed)

This was a losing strategy from the start...
