If the release an unbutchered Song of the South on DVD in a bid to make money I just may buy it.

No company is too big to fail. Eve the once mighty Sears is almost finished after 100+ years.

Poir Disney. Maybe the homosexual community, all 1% of them, will pick up the slack.

I blame all the lame Woke crap they’ve been churning out catering to like 2% of their possible audience.

I’m sure AAPL would love to own Disney’s streaming service and film library. The theme parks? Not so much.

300 billion would probably do it, though that low of an offer might be enough to tempt someone else into the game. Is that something Apple would want to do? I donno. It'd solve a whole lot of issues for Apple, but in the end would probably create more problems than it'd solve.

Personally, I think it'd be a huge poison pill for Apple. There are other options available which are much cheaper and come with far fewer issues. I don't think anyone’s going to make a play for Disney under these conditions.

Disney can sell-off ABC, Hulu, Star Wars, The Muppets, and Marvel properties for a start.

Disney’s current market cap is around $100 billion. Apple has over $250 billion in cash.

They could at least open for their Gay Days - they’ll get plenty of people for that!

Well, they can raise their ticket prices to, what, $500 a day? $750?

I’m certain they’ll be back to full capacity by Gay Days.

Wrought is the word she was looking for. English proficiency should be a requirement for journalists. At least since honesty and integrity are not.

I would buy the stock if it’s cheap enough. But over $100, I don’t think so. Maybe at $50. It’s a brand and everyone wants to go to Disneyworld, it will happen in either 2021 or 2022.

If they’re still in the positive in this that’s pretty good. And I don’t think Apple can afford Disney. Other way around maybe.
