One thing that I would like the market to appreciate more is the difference between Disney and other media companies.

We have a unique opportunity as Disney because it really is the only true global entertainment brand.

People go to Disney because they know its brand attributes. We believe we have an opportunity to go with our content directly to consumers.

I think that might have been an element in it, and people have asked me that very thing. Remember, Disney is the majority shareholder, but it is not an operating division of Disney.

Disney's clearly in the business of doing giant tent pole movies based on properties that they own. And that's what they should be doing because they're great at doing that.

We really believe that Walt Disney is a very able company with great depth and a great set of franchises.

I had worked at Disney since they bought the company that I had worked for, ABC in the mid-90s.

Disney truly stands alone, not only because of the company's phenomenal creativity, but also because of the thousands of remarkable people who make it such an extraordinary place.

Disney produces fabulous movies around certain characters, and then they commercialize that engagement through toys, books, cruises.

I think Warner Bros. are probably some of the best people in marketing films in the world.
