Three things: 1. Bob Iger isn't a businessman, he's a corporate bureaucrat; 2. The marketplace is sometimes slow to react, but it almost always punishes (usually very permanently) businesses that pump out sub-standard products and take their customers for granted; 3. Disney has being playing accounting games, which has masked they real severity of their financial issues, notably their actual free cash flows and working capital is what's driving this crisis. This last point is really critical: Disney's actual financial health (much like Enron and Lehman in their last days) is much worse than a cursory review of their annual and quarterly balance sheets might first indicate. This is why Iger is driving cost-cutting so hard: their ability to fund operations has become a real problem because lenders are starting to seriously question their asset valuations (specifically IP, franchises, studios and theme parks) based on the poor performance of nearly every segment of their business. Worse, Iger can't take the obvious step of unloading problem / damaged assets like Lucas Film, because everyone knows it would go to someone else for pennies on the dollar. Borrowing is facilitated, in no small part, by asset valuation and future revenue generation of those assets and, right now, it's pretty obvious that both near and long-term prospects for Disney are poor. So why do I say Bob Iger isn't a businessman (or a very poor one, if the moniker most be applied)? Because a businessman must care about creativity if they're to continue producing superior products that customers will buy. This is actually true in every business, no matter how mundane a business may first appear. That creativity might be in the artistry of animation, the design of an automobile, the engineering of a semiconductor, the flavor of a toothpaste, and so on. It also manifests in the work of marketers, packaging folks, new concepts and ideas, research and development and, yes, even the necessary bureaucratic processes needed to facilitate all of this efficiently in a large company. Bob Iger has respected none of these things, and the results are now obvious. A simple analogy: it's as if Iger took over Procter & Gamble, started buying all the competition while making every tooth paste taste like licorice, every shampoo, shaving cream, etc., smell like lavender, crapping out ever more identical licorice and lavender flavored products, and then blamed the customers who don't like licorice and lavender when customers complain and products sit on store shelves. Oh, and liking the taste of regular old, pre-licorice flavored Crest makes you a bad person. Say what you will about Michael Eisner, but he absolutely did know how to run a company. He invested in the creative aspects of the company, understood that the studio producing quality creative output was absolutely necessary to support the other parts of the business. He understood how to drive growth throughout Disney. He left Disney in a state where it was an absolute titan of the industry. Not that Eisner wasn't without flaws, but he'll be remembered as Disney's greatest CEO, whereas Iger will be remembered as the guy who ran the company into the ground (along with every studio and property he bought).

Which is why attacking Chapek is misguided. Only theme park folks have a point, hating him for cutting costs. Corporate America has three main groups of leaders: accountants, marketers and bureaucrats. Chapek is an accountant but when he took over and took power, he tried his hands at being a marketer by trying to find projects that made more money for him to account for but he wasn't too good at it obviously. But he tried to right the ship. Iger is just a bureaucrat who does behind the scenes deals with his relationships, selling BS buzzwords to shareholders, and is not good at creating or selling anything to customers, like a marketer (say Mike Eisner) is. Pixar and Marvel had passionate creators at the helm till Bob Iger took power away from them, right before he left. Chapek wanted to empower the marketing team again, then, Iger came back and TOOK POWER AWAY FROM THEM AGAIN to give to bureaucratic controller types again like he did right before he left! Chapek knew what he wasn't good at and tried to fix it. Iger is blind to his own weakness because he's a smug prick and Disney is PAYING for it!

There's an additional element to Iger's start at Disney that, on one part, should have been a warning, but on another part, seems completely comical considering how things turned out. The first is the desperate search for the next Pirates of the Caribbean, where they tried to have their own Lord of the Rings/Harry Potter with Narnia, they tried to revive Tron, they tried to make the Lone Ranger, they tried MORE Pirates movies... and it continued to fail. Tron Legacy is kind of an odd one in particular as it was written with the intention of being a new trilogy, stumbling into the same mistake Universal would with The Mummy re-remake. Granted how much of that was started by Iger is unknown, but Iger became President of Disney in 2000. There's a good chance he was moving chess pieces even back then. But the really interesting thing is that a lot of those films were also part of the motivation for getting Marvel, and later LucasFilm, in the first place: to try and appeal more to boys. Disney had the young girl market in their pocket ever since The Little Mermaid, and so they started to purchase brands like Marvel and Star Wars and make movies like Wreck-it-Ralph to make up for their demographic shortcomings. By the latter half of the 2010's, however, well... let's just say there's a lot of reasons I want to forget Ralph Breaks the Internet exists, and one of those is a clear demographic change. Granted you could open up a bigger discussion on how busted Western media is in regards to how it focuses on demographics and draws a lot of assumptions on them, when on the other hand I grew up watching Sailor Moon and enjoying it because it still had a good story despite clearly being targeted towards girls. But for the purposes of Bob Iger, it's just interesting to see that his intent to appeal more to boys got completely hijacked and now we have She-Hulk.

And while we like to give Eisner flack over that "we want money, no arts" quote he was quite the creative guy, he even considered himself as the last creative CEO in Hollywood, when LotR became too expensive to the Disney-owned Miramax to make he offered to have Disney co-producd it just to Harvey Weinstein to not give the script and just have it be shipped to New Line.

Comparing Eisner to Iger without talking about Frank Wells seems like fundamentally not understanding the difference between the 2 people and how they managed Disney. Eisner Was actually awesome in terms of understanding Disney as a creative company. But he had a lot of flaws as a business man. Frank Wells was the Ying to his Yang. Before Wells dies Eisners and Wells had the company in the best place its maybe ever been. After Wells Died Eisner had to handle significantly more including things he wasn't very good at. Which lead to a few financially disastrous decisions. Mainly Euro Disney (now Disneyland Paris) and DCA. Iger was always an Empty Suit. He was brought in to make sure the financial failures that happened toward the end of the Eisner era wouldn't happen again. He never understood the company creatively and never will. Walt Disney was Largely the same way as Eisner where His brother Roy handled a lot of the business aspects of things where Walt was about the creativity of it all. What Made Eisner and Wells different from Walt and Roy is who died first. Walt died before Roy and Left a creative vacuum in the company for a long time. Wells died before Eisner and Left a Business savyy vacuum that lead to some bad business decisions that hurt the company financially. Iger is Just the business guy. so there is no creativity and the company does not care. Iger is Infinitely worse than Eisner ever was.

I find it hilarious that Disney tried so hard to push Nimona down the toilet while they already have so many projects stuck in development hell: the Darkwing Duck reboot, the threequels for National Treasure, Tron and The Princess Diaries, every Star Wars movie, a Pirates of the Caribbean movie, the live action African princess movie, Sade, which I'm convinced at this point they turned it into the live action Little Mermaid movie. And at the same time, Nimona has gotten so much critical acclaim, Disney's neverending sabotage of their animated movies is biting them in the ass with a counting number of blox office flops! It's like poetry, it rhymes! They also sabotaged every live action movie that isn't part of the brands they bought or studio they own. I mean, I'd love to see another ORIGINAL PG 13 live action franchise but they don't care. Wish I would've gotten to see Nimona in theaters. We don't see many queer leads in kids/family movies or animated movies on the big screen.

02:18 [ Iger ] is not a "money-hungry Capitalist"... He's a Corporatist. They're not the same. In fact, they're anathema to each other. Among the many, fundamental differences:.. Corporatists are all about acquisition and consolidation, to the point of ((if allowed to get away with it)) creating monopolies... and they're very-Very-VERY risk-averse. _Capitalists are the exact opposite. They esteem and advocate competition, especially concerning one of its symbiotic/synergistic components -- innovation.._ [ Iger and those like him, which is roughly 99% of contemporary mainstream entertainment industry ] are the consequence of America's departure from Capitalism. A departure which began decades ago.... ....What we're witnessing, not just in Disney but throughout nigh all of Hollywood is the consequence of not just Corporatism, but worse, a Corporatism blended and guided by Cultural Marxist theory... ergo, the beginning of its collapse.

Companies have to deliver what the consumer wants and are thus healthy and beholden to the people, corporations are not.

Another great video, Nutsa. You are consistently putting out some of the best content out there. Keep up the great work. Now... Bob Iger is bad but I tend to believe just how bad Micheal Eisner got and was after Frank Wells passed away was worse. Igar has done a lot stupid things but Eisner basically created Disney's main rival in animation in Dreamworks with his treatment of Katzenberg. With Eisner so much damage had been done there was a break between Eisner and Pixar chairman Steve Jobs, with Pixar abruptly abandoning its partnership with Disney. Eisner bought ABC, which has been a dragged on the company ever since, The overpriced acquisition of Fox Family(now FreeForm). The search engine GO was a disaster. Hell, Eisner misjudged Michael Ovitz, a man who was not only "the most powerful man in Hollywood" but also his friend, whom he appointed as Disney president and immediately wanted to fire. Disney under Igar has been awful but Disney under Eisner there was an actual revolt within the Broad.

You are right - There was so much revolt that Roy E Disney initiated the Save Disney campaign. Both Eisner (Being a bit of a shit head later in his career as a CEO as what you mentioned) and Iger (focusing too much on financial gains and acquiring existing properties in expense of long term creative health) have wrecked Disney in more shapes than one, but the way they did it differs. Funnily enough, Roy Disney is not exactly a saint either - he was a contributing factor in why Katzenberg (who happened to be an egoist as well) noped the fuck out to form Dreamworks with Geffen and Spielberg (hence where SKG came from).

Great video! It’s a shame how far Disney has fallen, but when you’ve got Bobby Iger on board I guess that’s what’s bound to happen. It’s really funny how all the shills were cheering at his contract extension, it’s like Disney signed their own death warrant with that move. Iger stepping down was a “big-brained” move by him to avoid personal responsibility once the shit hit the fan. It was kinda brilliant actually: use the pandemic and Chapek’s refusal to do anything as an excuse for why movies bomb and park prices going up while services go down, then come back and be the knight in shining armor. Unfortunately for Bobby, more and more people are seeing past his bullshit, and after his comments on the SAG-AFTRA strikes, he’s definitely taking Eisner’s place as the CEO that brought Disney down. The downfall can’t come soon enough.

Additionally, you are very good at articulating your thoughts, making it easy to follow your ideas and understand what you want to communicate. I truly enjoy hearing your ideas and viewpoints! I Agree 100% with what you said. Towards the end, when you were talking about reputation, it got me thinking... Why haven't I seen any Star Wars or Marvel shows for over a year? Oh, it's because of the reputation they now have. This reputation is a result of their own work, and it has nothing to do with reviews or videos of other people speaking poorly about them, at least not in my case. I stopped watching their shows and movies because the quality has become incredibly poor (I mean, the last Star Wars show I watched was Obi-Wan, and what a huge disappointment that was). I simply stopped caring about them. I've always liked Indiana Jones; I've never been a huge fan, but I enjoy those movies (the three that matter). When the last movie was announced, I felt nothing, absolutely nothing. I didn't even have a sense of curiosity. I didn't watch it, and I don't think I ever will. Star Wars used to be my favorite franchise by far. When I was little, I became a fanboy of Harry Potter, but even back then, if you asked me what my favorite universe/franchise was, I would have still told you it was Star Wars. Imagine my surprise when I watched The Last Jedi, thinking that it was impossible for Star Wars to have a bad movie... and walking out of the theater feeling like a part of me had just died. The impossible became possible; a bad Star Wars movie was created, and I was unlucky enough to witness it. Now, I've heard that Lucasfilm plans to make that acolyte crap and a new movie with Rey as the protagonist, and just as you clearly stated in your video, their reputation makes me not give a damn. I KNOW they will be bad. But I also KNOW this is not Star Wars. It may bear the same name and exist in a similar universe, but this is something else. Star Wars died the day George Lucas sold his company to the devil in a mouse's disguise. The same goes for Marvel, Pixar (a company I also believed could never make a bad movie), and so on. Anyway, this company is going down the drain, and I couldn't be happier. Not because I wish them harm (I actually feel kind of sorry for all the good people I know who work there and genuinely care about art and telling good stories), but because HOPEFULLY this will bring about a change in the company and they will finally fire Kathleen Kennedy for her crimes against humanity.

On the flip side I wasn't very interested in Star Trek when I was younger, but revisiting it on Paramount+ it has grown on me to the point where I can now see why it's always had its own strong following. So I'd definitely say the pendulum for these two iconic sci-fi franchises has finally been shifting for me, which I'm sure has not been helped by Disney's own handling of Star Wars today.

The Infinity Saga was more of Ike Perlmutter’s brainchild than it was Kevin Feige’s By looking at how Iger demoted Ike back in 2018 and charting the progression since the start of Phase 4, this became especially clear once we started seeing Kevin Feige + Victoria Alonso being completely unchallenged. The reason I say this has everything to do with what Ike Perlmutter WAS for Marvel: the Merchandising/Toy Maker Magnate that meticulously crafted stuff as to maximize profits specifically by being a penny pincher.

Not sure about the business hate. George Lucas was both a creative and a savvy businessman. He merchandised the heck out of Star Wars, and he used it to build both his special effects studio and the small empire that became lucasfilm. Pixar had Steve Jobs, the Ying to John Lasseter’s Yang. But I think the point about the companies noticeably getting worse at the point at which Iger likely started to pay more attention to them is fascinating. It’s hard to appreciate someone’s legacy in the thick of things. I remember Eisner being incredibly reviled by the time he was ousted, and now we look back fondly on a lot of what he accomplished. Especially in the parks, a lot of the expanding happened under Eisner. But I think they kind of follow a similar trajectory. They accomplished a lot of things early on, some of it really good, and by the end they were not willing to hand over the reigns, even as their shortcomings were starting to show. I know Chapek was not popular, but I was curious to see what he could do. Disney has real financial issues, and Chapek was supposed to be good at that. He was a lousy politician though, and that sort of killed him in the end.

I really disagree when people talk ill of Eisner. The man made his fair share of poor decisions, especially at the end of his time and especially with the parks - But when he came on in the early 80s, Disney was in serious trouble, and it only got worse. While you can hardly say he caused the Disney Renaissance, I think that execs like him being there who had the trust to be hands off creatively was extremely important in allowing these films to take off. Eisner said in an interview once that they're committed to animation because it's the soul of the company. Compare this to Iger, who's successes early on were mostly overseeing films that had been in production for ages, or just watching an already well established production machine.

I thought Bob Iger was a shitty CEO when I realized he left Chapek to flounder around in the pandemic but still hovered around like a vulture for Chapek's downfall Ever since then i have been hearing one bad thing after another about this guy and i cant wait for him to just be gone

Brilliant video, as always! Excellent script and editing. And, yet, so depressingly truthful. I was naive enough to cheer Bob on in the 'oos and early '10s. I feel bad for Chapek. he didn't do anything impressive that redeems him. He just never had a chance. And bringing Iger back was the equivalent of bring Abrams back for Episode IX. I hate seeing properties I previously loved destroyed, but since they've already been destroyed, there's quite a bit of satisfaction seeing their corpses and Iger's plans go down in flames. Another one of Iger's signature Chad moves is to make statements that he's allowed things to become oversaturated and he's pulling back on the deluge of content, only to green light more content. He's just done it again, saying that he thinks the problem with Marvel and why things aren't performing is that there's been too much Marvel on D+. No, Bob. If anything, there hasn't been enough exclusive content on D+ to be worth paying for D+. There's only ever one show at a time, and after D+ premiered, once Mando S1 was done, there was a whole year of nothing else to watch. Since then, whether it's Marvel or Star Wars, there's only ever one new show at a time, and it's usually not worth watching. But, maybe there is too much Marvel on D+. What else ya got? Oh, nothing? You've bought half of Hollywood. How is there nothing else to watch on there? I do think that the more Marvel shows you have, the less chance everyone will watch all of them because they're no longer events and the shows haven't really tied into each other, and some are wildly different in tone, so naturally some are going to appeal to some people and not as much to others. But, the real issue is that every single one of them sucked. To varying degrees, but none of them were must-see, outside of fanatics for the brand. The problem, in both show and movie form, isn't superhero fatigue. Though that may exist to some extent, the real problem is absolute rubbish content fatigue. If you do reduce the pace of releases but keep the same writing quality - because that's what makes the show/movie is the story and characters - it won't matter. Disney's always had its controversies, but for much of its life it's had a reputation of quality in animation, creativity, and storytelling. Over the course of Iger's reign, all three of those and its general reputation have deteriorated. It's now the poster child for soulless mega corporation, that only has brand recognition to survive on. IDK what will come of it, but it seems like the writers and actors being on strike at the same time, as well as movie after movie failing to perform up to expectations feels like things are converging for a reckoning in Hollywood. Things are going to change, but I'm not yet sure if it's going to be for the better or if things are going to get so much worse. But with both groups in part striking over the use of AI, it feels like it's all revolving around the lack of creativity and around studios taking the easy ways out, throwing money and tech at things until neither is sustainable. And Iger, specifically, has built Disney into a castle of cards that's big enough that it could bring the whole system down. And the executives - and even a lot of the creatives - he has at every level, in every division have bought into his philosophy. Virtually every one of them needs to go, at this point. And what's that leave us? Walt's legacy in shambles?

Chapek DOES deserve some flak. Chapek didn't just continue the trend, he added a new one - a trend of selling off assets for quick cash and cutting back on maintenance funding for their money-makers, because Chapek is and has always been nothing but a bean counter who had no business being anywhere near CEO. We all should have known that when Chapek accidentally set the Epcot Center on fire because he thought he could save a few bucks by cutting back on safety protocols. Bringing Iger back was just icing on the cake of bad that is Disney's latest streak of mistakes.
