Thirty billion dollars. That is what Disney generates as a company. Every year. It is one of the largest and most important companies in the world linked to the field of entertainment.
Currently, Disney has 18 amusement parks, 39 hotels, eight movie studios and eleven cable television channels, in addition to the brand new Disney Plus platform.
It is the extraordinary legacy left by Walt Disney, born precisely on December 5, but in 1901, and who began all this adventure.
The Disney empire has grown so much that today, several decades later, it is worth wondering what the iconic Walt would have thought when seeing what all the dreams and years of work have become, what would he have thought, for example, when seeing a service like the one offered by the Disney Plus platform.
A premature way of approaching that answer is to know the vision that the cartoonist had, before building everything that we know today.
For example, his idea to build Disneyland was to build “a place where people will find happiness and knowledge.”
While Disney’s mission as a company, in its early years was “to provide quality entertainment for people around the world.”
Thus we can understand that one of Walt Disney’s main concerns as a businessman was entertainment and to offer an instance where the family in general could have a good time.
From animated films to the main amusement park, this concern was more than met.
If we analyze what happens with Disney Plus, we must first look at another of the paragraphs of Walt Disney’s plan when presenting Disneyland to potential investors, especially this paragraph:
“It will be a place for fathers, mothers, sons and daughters to share pleasant moments; a place for teachers and students to discover better ways of understanding and education ”.
From here we can understand that the cartoonist, indeed, sought to promote entertainment, but as long as it had an educational and integral purpose.
In this sense, the Disney Plus platform would also meet these standards, since in its generous catalog are the most classic animated productions of the Disney empire, but there is also other content that encourages entertainment from an educational point of view, such as productions from Pixar and the content associated with National Geographic.
There are also documentaries and other productions that seek much more than entertain.
Thus, we are almost certain that, if old Walt were alive, he would sacredly pay the subscription to enjoy the content of Disney Plus.
