    Hi, everyone - I just wanted to update you on behalf of the family with a great big "THANK YOU!" Lil Buford is now at home, and I've finally been able to come online and send out update emails. Hopefully he'll be back on these boards one day. The 'grizzly family' is doing just fine, and I...

    More WDI Layoffs Planned?

    While I disagree with your last statement and don't appreciate your unpleasant nature and attack-mode mood on these forums, you did provide me with a good idea. . . I will examine what is best for me and take a nice vacation. Success will come when the quality "outs," friends.

    Take Mission Space... the attraction is based on technology. In ten years, will other theme parks grasp that technology, leaving Mission Space to end up like Body Wars? Outside of technology (sensation), there is not much to the attraction in my opinion. Is this the fault of the Imagineers...

    Okay, if you weren't "attacking" (don't have the interest to search for the best term to use) me with a Grizz-focus in the previous post, that was just it ^. With that being said, I'm out, and I once again stress the importance of allowing the thread to go back on topic.

    If I were the only person that could run Disney, wouldn't I WANT people like Bruce Gordon to be laid off? :lookaroun Normally, I would defend my various points of view, but I've done that far too much in posts and writing ignored in the acceptance of the ideals of which you've spoken of...

    Since it still entertains. Trust me, if you put Pixar to work on 2-D films, the box-office successes would clear any doubt. Home on the Range would have been just as bad and would have made the little money it did in 3-D. As it's been discussed on other threads, it's the story. Fire the...

    Bingo. Woody, do you know how long John Lassetter has been working for Disney and Pixar? Remember Joe Ranft? You can't just live off new blood. Especially if that new blood is temporary, because then why have such a great work ethic? And remember that this will all go back to...

    SGE was not the only example DCA was another, which wannab so conveniently left out of his message. I could go on and on if you'd like, but honestly, I really don't think you care what I say, as there's always something wrong with it - so why bother?

    So you also agree, Woody, that the Walt Disney Company made an excellent decision to fire the thousand of Animation employees and stick to 3-D art only (for theatrical releases)?

    Spaceship Earth -- any plans to replace Global Neighborhood?

    When the ride gets a sponsor or a refurbishment, expect something to be brought in.

    Yes, Clemson, this seems very much to be what happened at Animation from people I talked to this afternoon. People within and outside the Company with good knowledge are apparently EXTREMELY shocked. . . but some saw this coming.

    I had the palm-sized chicken on the lettuce. Good, but a rip-off.

    Heck yeah - and get more Primeval Whirls! That'll surely bring in the crowds and big bucks, eh?

    The graph is not neccesary to prove the point. Although cyclical layoffs have occured after mass expansion and contraction, Walt Disney created WED Enterprises to be a powerful, creative force that proactively planned the future of his magical kingdoms. These men and women were behind...

    More WDI Layoffs Planned?

    By the way, this was not an isolated incident. Apparently, several other Imagineers were laid off at the same time, and the political war inside WDI is continuing. It seems as though Bruce was let go of for "not having a project," even though he was removed from working on the Nemo Subs...

    More WDI Layoffs Planned?

    His Nemo sub ride project obviously hadn't faded... BTW, I quoted Eisner saying how CEOs should be replaced every 10 years, not my words. If a person has great ideas and a great knowledge of the company (enough to write popular book upon popular book), I don't think it would be in the best...

    Marty Sklar is much older. If he wanted to leave, he would.
