Public perception of Disney is that their work has taken a hit in quality as of late. Wish, the studio's big hundredth-anniversary event movie, underperformed both critically and commercially. Moving on from the flop of both Wish and 2022's Strange World, the upcoming slew of Disney and Pixar sequels does not inspire a lot of confidence in fans. With some of these movies digging deep into existing franchises (Toy Story 5, Frozen 3, Cars 4) and the recently announced Moana 2 coming from a reworked television series, it seems to many that the corporation is in desperation mode.
