a creative actually had a really good idea they pitched to the executives
They is delusional. Do they think Disney is some indie company and not a corporate machine?
Everything they do is for profit, not giving fans what they want. It just so happens that the two sometimes line up and we get a good movie out of it.
For years, Disney’s intent was to saturate the market with Marvel. They didn’t want a single month to go by without SOME Marvel movie or TV show. Them not thinking fans would get fatigued like they did is evidence enough that fans were never their priority.
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.
Bigger projects with big characters that cost more mean that the execs want to “make sure they get their money’s worth” so they’re sticking their noses in it.
Then for projects with the B-list characters on a smaller budget they don’t do that.

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.
Yeah I think it’s more like this:
