  • Subtitles section
  • What is going on, everybody?
  • Welcome back to the Cosmic Wonder.
  • I'm Warren Thompson, and today we have some really big news
  • not just coming from Marvel Studios
  • but actually coming from Disney
  • and specifically Disney CEO Bob Iger.
  • And in fact, a lot of things are happening today.
  • It looks like Marvel is in for a pretty big change up
  • a change up that might be really good news to some fans
  • while at the same time might be disappointing some other fans
  • just a little bit.
  • But overall, I think what Marvel Studios and Disney is about to do
  • is going to be better for the MCU
  • for the movies, for the shows
  • and for the stories,
  • Especially for the people who have been stating that it's rather hard to keep up to date with the MCU nowadays
  • because there's just so much to keep up with
  • especially if you don't want to watch a particular show,
  • It could be kind of annoying to some people
  • that don't want to watch those particular shows
  • because it's the MCU,
  • Everything's connected
  • and you kind of have to watch those shows to know what's going on,
  • So, people who are in that category
  • should be feeling a little bit better after today's video.
  • However, there is also a little bit of trouble going on out there today
  • as the actors have now called a strike,
  • So the writers and the actors are on strike right now.
  • We'll talk about what that means in this video
  • but first let's go over what Bob Iger said.
  • And if you are a fan of the MCU
  • be sure to subscribe to the channel and hit that notification bell
  • so you can stay up to date on everything that is happening with the MCU,
  • So this actually took place today while Bob Iger
  • Disney CEO, was talking to CNBC.
  • And this is the actual headline for the CNBC article that states
  • Disney pulling back on making Marvel Star Wars content
  • Iger says,
  • The article starts off by stating Disney is slowing down when it comes to making movies and TV series for its Marvel Studios and Lucasfilm franchises
  • CEO Bob Iger said Thursday on CNBC.
  • Now, we knew this was coming.
  • Both Bob Iger and Kevin Feige
  • the president of Marvel Studios
  • did say that we're going to see a change in the release patterns for the Disney Plus shows and movies,
  • And when Kevin Feige was specifically asked about this
  • whether it was going to be fewer Disney Plus shows or them simply spread out more with their release dates
  • he said,
  • Both.
  • Now, Bob Iger explains that there are several reasons for this decision
  • and one of them is actually cost.
  • He stated, and I quote
  • you pull back not just to focus
  • but also as part of our cost containment initiative
  • spending less on what we make and making less.
  • Now, that right there is a little bit of a concerning statement.
  • Bob Iger just said that they're going to make less
  • meaning for Star Wars and Marvel
  • they're going to make less.
  • I would assume Disney plus shows.
  • Movies have been pretty steady.
  • Three movies a year, four movies a year.
  • That's not too different than what Marvel Studios was doing in the past
  • two to three movies a year,
  • But the Disney Plus shows have been cranked out like crazy.
  • So, when Bob Iger talks about making less
  • I'm assuming he is talking about the Disney Plus shows
  • since him and Kevin Feige have been talking about making less Disney Plus shows in the past.
  • That makes sense.
  • But then he said spending less on what they make
  • meaning they are not going to put as much money into these Disney Plus shows.
  • than they were before.
  • And this could be problematic.
  • However, since they are going to be making less
  • they will essentially have more funds opened up
  • and they won't be working their workers so hard anymore.
  • Specifically, the VFX teams that have recently complained in the past,
  • They won't have to go from Disney plus show to Disney plus show to Disney plus show,
  • They will have time to work on things.
  • And since there's going to be less Disney plus shows getting put out
  • that is a little bit more money per Disney plus show.
  • At least that is what we would hope is going to happen.
  • However, Bob Iger just did say spending less
  • and making less,
  • So we'll have to wait and see on that.
  • However, he does say a lot more.
  • While speaking with CNBC
  • Bob Iger did admit that the studio screwed with audience expectations by offering up so much streaming content.
  • The negative impact of that has been commercial disappointments in theaters
  • be it Ant Man and the Wasp
  • Quantumania, not even reaching five hundred million worldwide
  • or disappointing openings for summer tentpoles
  • Elemental, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
  • And this is what Bob Iger had to say about that.
  • There have been some disappointments.
  • We would have liked some of our more recent releases to perform better,
  • It's reflective, not as a problem from a personal perspective
  • but I think in our zeal to basically grow our content significantly to serve mostly our streaming offerings.
  • And here's a really important part.
  • He continues to say, we ended up taxing our people way beyond
  • in terms of their time,
  • and their focus way beyond where they had been.
  • And he goes on to specifically talk about Marvel.
  • He states, Marvel's a great example of that.
  • They had not been in the TV business at any significant level,
  • Not only did they increase their movie output, but
  • They ended up making a number of television series
  • and frankly, it diluted focus and attention.
  • That is, I think, more of the cause than anything.
  • So, Bob Iger admits right here
  • he states that he believes they made so much
  • that it essentially diluted Marvel and the MCU,
  • There was so much content out there
  • that it was almost impossible for every individual person to maintain their focus and attention on the MCU
  • because there was just so much,
  • Now, I know the fandom is kind of mixed about this.
  • Some people love all of the output that Disney has been doing with Marvel Studios
  • and the Disney Plus shows
  • and the movies, and some people don't like it so much,
  • Go ahead, and let us know where you're at
  • in the comments down below,
  • Did you think it was too much or did you think it was fine?
  • Now, earlier this year in an investor conference
  • Bob Iger said that there was nothing inherently off about the Marvel brand,
  • And I would have to agree with that.
  • I think they just put out way too much content
  • for a lot of people to keep up with,
  • Even people that I personally know who love Marvel have said
  • yeah, it is a lot.
  • And I haven't watched everything because it's just so much.
  • And now I'm behind and don't really know what's going on.
  • But for the people who feel that way, it's good news.
  • This is good news.
  • Bob Iger is confirming
  • hey, they're going to make less Disney plus shows.
  • I hope they don't make less movies.
  • I hope they just cut back a little bit on the Disney plus shows,
  • We don't need six Disney plus shows
  • plus special presentations
  • a year, but two Disney plus shows about really awesome characters
  • and one special presentation about another awesome character
  • a year,
  • That's fine.
  • Mix that with three movies a year
  • that's still a lot of Marvel content
  • way more than we're used to before phase four.
  • But it wouldn't be as much to keep up with.
  • That way, the MCU could still be fresh
  • and it wouldn't really lose you.
  • It wouldn't lose your attention
  • and wouldn't lose your focus
  • and you could keep up much easier.
  • Now, for those people who are like me
  • who can watch everything that Marvel puts out
  • unfortunately, we're going to be getting a little less.
  • However, since we are getting less
  • hopefully the quality does start to increase.
  • That could be the really great thing about Bob Iger's strategy here,
  • So that's a big change coming from Marvel.
  • They're going to be switching up what they do.
  • And, Marvel's Phase Five
  • and Phase Six, could definitely be affected by this
  • but it is being affected
  • right now because the S.A.G.
  • A.F.T.R.A.
  • calls a history making strike.
  • The S.A.G.
  • A.F.T.R.A., which stands for the Screen Actors Guild
  • American Federation of Television and Radio Artists
  • is an American labor union representing about one hundred and sixty thousand film and television actors
  • journalists, radio personalities
  • recording artists, singers
  • voice actors, fashion models
  • et cetera,
  • And they have caught a strike along with the writer strike
  • That has currently been happening now
  • the writer strike has already pushed a few things with Marvel Studios and many other studios as well back a little bit
  • but now some actors are going on strike
  • so unfortunately, since the writer strike caused some delays
  • the actor strike, the SAG strike
  • is going to be causing some more delays.
  • Hopefully this ends relatively soon
  • however, it's not looking like it's going to because the SAG says something very different than what the studios are stating.
  • The studios, who are represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers
  • or the AMPTP, they said they presented a great and historic deal to the SAG,
  • The representative for them said this, and I quote,
  • The AMPTP presented a deal that offered historic pay and residual increases
  • substantially higher caps on pension and health contributions
  • audition protections, shortened series option periods
  • and a groundbreaking AI proposal that protects actresses' digital likeness.
  • for SAG AFTRA members.
  • And they concluded by stating
  • a strike is certainly not the outcome we hoped for
  • as studios cannot operate without the performers that bring our TV shows and films to life,
  • So, the studios believe that they offered the actors a pretty great deal
  • but the actors obviously do not agree,
  • So, unfortunately, we don't really know when this could possibly come to an end
  • but this could definitely affect Marvel Studios
  • especially if they have a good amount of actors who are a part of.
  • the SAG AFTRA.
  • We do know that the Rider Strike did delay some of Marvel Studios projects a little bit
  • and although it is not official or confirmed in any means yet
  • we should be expecting some more delays due to this.
  • If they don't happen to have any more delays
  • that is great, but let's just prepare ourselves.
