Part 12/14:
The consensus among critics and fans is that Disney’s current strategy has been not only unsustainable but detrimental. The answer seems clear: they need to reboot or radically overhaul their approach. Current leadership, including Bob Iger, acknowledges that "we need to make great movies"—a statement that feels hollow given the eroded trust.
Furthermore, the studio faces an internal crisis. Kevin Feige and Kathleen Kennedy's future at Disney is uncertain; both have been heavily criticized for their mismanagement. While Marvel still produces profitable films, the Star Wars franchise remains dormant, with no new movie in the pipeline for years, showcasing just how badly things have spiraled.
