After realizing that another question popped into my mind. Where is their funding coming from? We're seeing drops in revenue (c19 unrelated) across the board for everything from merchandise, to sports and all the way to theme park attendance.

The only things that seemed to be bringing in actual money were superhero movies and they've effectively killed those. I say that as someone who truly liked the vast majority of those movies (fucking fight me).

That's the part that confuses me. Where are they getting the money to stay afloat?
