    This is exactly the issue. A smaller studio has to distinguish itself with quality work. Disney is a media empire and pretty much a monopoly. They don’t need to distinguish themselves from shit. They own dozens, maybe hundreds of networks, services, and production studios across the world and all they need to do is produce the most basic watchable content on enough of a scale to keep viewers subscribed. The high quality shows and movies they produce are the exception, not the rule.

    It’s time to break up every media empire.

      Agreed. It’s mostly corporate slop but sometimes they find an absolutely killer recipe so credit where credit’s due.
