Can Disney Exist in a Covid-19 World? Will the Company's Movies and Theme Parks Still be Relevant After the Virus?

<p>The Best Paragraph I've Read:</p> <p><br></p> <p>"Disney has long been an outfit fueled by nostalgia. That would seem to offer an advantage during a pause; there are, after all, many old movies to re-watch.</p> <p>But Disney’s little secret is that such nostalgia cannot stand on its own — it needs to be continually fed and reinforced. A new set of Star Wars drives longing for the ′70s, a “Beauty and the Beast” remake powers nostalgia for the 1990s, Marvel movies draft off pleasant feelings of a childhood of comic books (and, 12 years into their run, of themselves). Disney is a constant interplay between past and present, a continuous bicycle chain between the pieces we once loved and the current releases we run out to see to remind us of them.</p> <p>And that chain has now been severed."</p> <p><br></p> <p>This paragraph comes from a Washington Post article by Steven Zeitchik. &nbsp;The article is titled: "How Disney could be facing a lot more than a lost summer." &nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/07/04/disney-july4-future-hamilton/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/07/04/disney-july4-future-hamilton/</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Zac and Don discuss if Disney and its movies and theme parks are still relevant in the age of Covid-19. &nbsp;They discuss whether Disney's entertainment reflects the era that America is currently living in. &nbsp;They discuss whether American entertainment habits have changed and if these new habits may seek out other forms of entertainment.</p> <p><br></p>
