The grief of Wanda Maximoff and news from Disney's annual shareholders' meeting. (#638)
Writer-producer-director Robert Meyer Burnett reviews the results of the recently-concluded, Disney shareholders’ meeting. Touching on plans for rides, theme park re-openings and more, RMB elaborates on comments made about Star Wars honcho, Kathleen Kennedy and the growth of the streaming service, Disney+, largely due to the popularity of The Mandalorian series.The meeting also saw the final farewell offered to Chairman Emeritus Bob Iger and recognition of the success the company has enjoyed thanks to Iger’s commitment to launching and building Disney+. Disney share prices closed at pre-pandemic high levels following the meeting.RMB also takes a deep dive into articles about WandaVision and explains how the series may be worth a re-watch - not from the perspective of a fan expecting blockbuster revelations and crises similar to what we’ve seen in the movie theater, but rather for what it is: an in-depth study of one person’s struggle with loss and grief.RMB also shares letters from fellow Imagination Connoisseurs of the Post-Geek Singularity and answers questions from fans in the livestream chat.(ROBSERVATIONS Episode #638 • Originally streamed on March 9, 2021)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/robservations-the-show-about-something--4698528/support.
