Duffy's Relationship to Shellie May... What do you think?
Hello! I'm going to Disneyland Paris next week and I was wondering what sort of Duffy and Shellie May goods there are. Are they still characters you can meet as well?
Hi all! Iβm headed to Disney Paris for my 30th birthday this May and Iβm so excited! One of the souvenirs Iβd love to bring home is a Duffy bear. Is there any place in the park I can find one? Thanks in advance!
I know I will probably get downvoted heavily for this, but I want to provide a contrarian view here and would love to discuss further in the comments with anyone who agrees or disagrees (Iβm very open to changing my mind).
I believe that the best industries to invest in for the long run are media and tech due to the low cost of replicating their product for any number of consumers once a given piece of media or code is produced. For that reason, I have closely watched Disney for some time.
Disney stock is down 18.45% YTD. I have been buying some of the dip on this stock recently, but as I have been doing more of my own DD on DIS, I've become increasingly hesitant to expand my position. I'm going to keep a small position because I believe so strongly in the Disney ecosystem of universes and stories that largely define our culture: Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, Disney classics like Beauty and the Beast, etc., but overall I remain relatively bearish on this company.
I believe that the management of Disney is weak, and has a track record of questionable acquisitions and weak implementation. Bob Chapek, the CEO, is a robot at best. He sounds dead inside. He has no flair or personality. he should be running a Lowe's or Target, not a media empire where cultural relevance and nimble action are key to creating viral hits. In interviews and earnings calls, he is generally vague and even sounds somewhat uninformed. He rarely has any data at hand and instead vaguely talks about potential opportunities. If he isn't data-driven and isn't inspiring, it's hard to see him as a strong leader. Listen to the latest earnings call; he failed to adequately answer pretty much any of the analysts' questions. Every question he is asked, Bob replies with some meaningless statements like wanting the consumer to decide or vaguely referring to the metaverse, or wanting to expand into sports betting. This is a problem.
The direction that the management is taking the company seems unfocused. Disney should double down on Disney+ direct-to-consumer streaming and dollar-for-dollar blow Netflix's content production investments out of the water. Right now, Netflix is projected to spend $13.6B on new content in 2021, and Disney is projected to spend $33B, but much of Disney's content spend is going towards cable/sports/Hulu rather than doubling down and competing with Netflix via Disney+. Disney needs to focus on becoming the future children's stories, family adventures, myths, the metaver

As far as I know, Duffy Bear, his friends, and merchandise are only sold outside of the US but I have a little hope that I may be able to find one in Epcot or Animal Kingdom. Does anyone know definitively?
Absolutely beautiful animation, hilarious, seems to be fairly respectful (as far as Iβm aware), great storyline and character, extremely heartwarming/tear jerking, absolutely incredible soundtrack, and it comes together perfectly at the end. At least a contender for best Disney movie ever for me. Criminally underrated.
