Big mistake is Apple were to purchase a significant portion of Disney.
Apple is a tech computer company. Thats what made them thats what they are good at.
Have we learned nothing from companies buying other companies???
Disney is film tv and theme parks resorts company. Apple is not.
Leave well.enough alone to the companies who pioneer in waht made them and not buying into other companies that they have not pioneered.
The final nail in the coffin. In the past the Dis board put in poison pills etc to prevent a takeover – now under Iger who is pure evil – and I DO MEAN evil – he wants to auction it off. As I have said ad nauseum – Iger is a mergers guy he knows NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING of creative. Not to mention all he is interested in is satisfying BlackRock et al and their woke agenda pushing demands. Iger IS the problem and all the woke idiots now entrenched in the company. Think about it – Walt Disney sat in a park with his daughters thinking “why isn’t there a place where I can take my kids and not see litter everywhere. Well explain to me how it is any different now – only the litter is the woke crap these pukes are installing in the park. I am all for dumping ESPN that was probably a dumb purchase in the first place but if there is hope at all for the Walt Disney company – at all – and that looks dicey right now – it needs to remain the Walt DIsney Company.
If this were to happen, I can see nothing but increased costs for vistors/guests at the parks. You would be required to use an Apple device to navigate the parks, “schedule” rides, order meals, etc., etc. Granted, some of this might be good……no long waits, but eventually there would still be delays (not everyone eats at the same pace !), and definitely increased costs.
Apple isn’t going to purchase Disney. It may invest in Disney in some way or partner with it but it’s not going to purchase Disney. This almost as bad a rumor as the one about how Disney World might relocate to another state.
Disney + and ESPN on day one of Vision Pro will be available but no comments how thus will play out. I think Disney will sell remaining part of Hulu to Comcast. Disney and Apple will spinoff Disney +,ESPN,Vision Pro,Apple Tv as a new company with management to focus on those companies.Disney had enough to do with the parks and Movie business and Apple has it phones.Investors will get shares of the new company and it will be one of the biggest IPO AND MOST LIKELY DIS AND AAPL WILL BE HOLDING A PERCENTAGE OF THE SHARES. EVERYONE WINS! This could be announced soon.
Apple buying Disney would be an absolute nightmare. It would effectively lock out those of us who don’t like/use Apple products from everything in the Parks and any film studio products. I really hope this IS a simple rumor that NEVER becomes reality – everyone should have equal access to anything Disney regardless of their media choice.
