Lord, so called ‘journalists’ these days...
(And this is only a small sample)
Funnily enough, written by JJ Abrams.
That's "6 Days 7 Nights," "Regarding Henry" and "Sabrina" - three of the worst movies made during the 1990s (and one of them is in the JJ Abrams **** Trifecta of: "Taking Care of Business," "Forever Young," and "Regarding Henry")
Regarding Henry was a flimsy attempt at finally getting an oscar for Ford. Nothing more, nothing less. Thankfully ...it failed. If he ever deserved an oscar for any movie, it would be for Mosquito Coast.

Imagine earning 4.4 billion for your boss in just 3 years then being worried about your job.

but she didnt earn 4.4 billion right....
did you already missed the post about how they have only earned much less than that?

A selection of a dozen Freaks members could have been the co-heads of LFL for the past 3 years and it would still be at $3B+.
It's the return of Star Wars, a following-on of the OT with the original OT cast.
Despite breathy billions-bamboozled "journalists" reporting over the past year or so, Disney is yet to pay off their $4.1B purchase price for the Star Wars brand - almost six years later. It's the reason they have been pushing these releases closer and upping their theatrical take and merch take % demands. Their stock price has been pretty stagnant.
They've earned about $2.2B in rentals, maybe $1.0-1.3B in merch royalties (that percentage varies from under 10 to 20%) and another $0.5-0.7B in home video which is pretty much to that $4.1B with other ancilliaries except when you take into account corp interest and overhead for six years.
It's probably roughly in line with what Disney expected, but the issue is that the brand feels totally exhausted after only four releases - "brand fatigue" just doesn't seem to apply to MCU - and it's had its first major failure (after a deeply divisive previous release that pancaked in its latter weeks after a big opneing) and so the movies seem to be increasingly out of step with the fanbase.
You only get "the return of SW" and "the return of the OT heroes" once, and that's done. Kathleen Kennedy has ridden through the honeymoon period, but that's now over and Disney knows it. The huge challenge is where SW goes from here, and it's going to take some major strategy and thought - not resting on laurels of the OT as Disney's SW has done up to now..
Blah blah blah
Bottom line.
She was the executive in charge when 4.4 billion was earned.
I didn’t say profit did I.
I said earned.
Every movie has a seperation between earned and profit not only Disney is subjected to that.
Bottom line LIKE IT OR NOT in 3 years 4.4 bilion was earned with ONLY 3 movies!
I’m just talking box office receipts which when compared to the rest of hollywood Disney keeps the most % due to strong arm tactics.
But yes she’s still resigning.
You don’t get to keep your job when a SW movie LOSES MONEY!
Don’t worry rebels you have won this battle.
I’m not certain about the war but this battle is yours.
