Disney's entertainment unit (streaming, film, and TV) faces several challenges:
Streaming: Q1 operating income forecast at $375M, below what analysts hoped for.
TV: Lower political ad spending will drag performance
Major film releases: Marketing and distribution for Zootopia 2 and Avatar: Fire and Ash will reduce Q1 earnings by $400M

Avatar opens December 19, giving Disney minimal revenue inside the quarter.
