And just on your earlier point, like, um,
way back in 2009, Disney paid $4.2 billion for Marvel.
Now, people, I'm sure most of our audience or most of the people that we've spoken to have seen a Marvel film and understand the breadth of characters, the breadth of storylines that that franchise has now given them.
And now that's extending to Disney Plus and now they've got spin-offs of all the Avengers characters and
And it's the storylines of all those years of comic books that have been written.
That's just a really amazing asset to have.
It's hard to go past Iron Man, I think.
I think it sort of channels that little kid feeling within all little boys, I guess.
Having some iron robotic suit over you that you could shoot things and rockets and lasers out of.
I think that's a pretty cool thing.
10 or 20 yeah that's incredible that's incredible right because then you think about that library of brands and intangible assets that they've got that haven't really been monetized yet or untapped yeah you think about so many more franchises so many more and they talk about you know what is it the where they step out of the old universe into the new one like there's a whole new series of characters that are going to emerge or the new Hulk or the new Captain Marvel who's coming in next
I do as well.
And thank you to my girlfriend who might be listening to this.
She's the one that actually pays for this stuff.
Probably the most interesting piece for me is the emergence of Disney Plus and how, you know, through obviously everything that's happened with COVID, it's been really hard for the business in terms of the parks and their cruises and their hotels and resorts and all that kind of stuff where restrictions have not let those facilities run at full capacity.
But
Having started Disney Plus in November 2019 to where it is now from a subscriber base of almost nothing to now at close to 95 million subscribers, that is a big, big number.
And it's a very, very quick rate at which they've done that.
And the reason why I'm so excited about that part of the business is this is one of the most recognizable brands in the world.
And yes, they've had the direct connection to the consumer where people can visit the parks and they can buy the merch and all that kind of stuff.
