>>7448987Listening to the history of Disney and the dark age of it has really made Hasbro make more sense.
Basically when you lose all competition you naturally degrade in quality and decisions and have no clue why. You still get some of the audience, but they’re unhappy with your results while many others will just abstain from your product.
With Disney it took Don Bluth to pull their best talent away, start a small studio, and make highly risky movies that vastly outperformed their equivalents. Then the remaining guys who were left at Disney convinced them to not just shut down the animation wing and instead work the team to the bone to produce the Disney Rennaissance of the 90’s.
The problem is Hasbro will not have that major competition, and sits comfortably at mediocre. SH Figurarts and Lego mean nothing to them, no more than Indie success bothers EA for example.
