The thing is, what's seen as "good" by shareholders is generally not the same as what park goers feel. Increasing the bottom line is great for shares, but bad because that means cutting wherever they can to bring costs down. Attendance isn't an indicator of customer satisfaction; merely that more people are in the parks. That's as much a reaction to the improving economy as anything else.

Yes the future looks bright from a short ter time horizon because, in the case of P&R, of applying industrial engineering principles to park operations. However, what about long term competitive advantage?
Has there ever been a case when investor sentiment and consumer sentiment have diverged or are the sentiments of investors and consumers intrinsically aligned?
Clearly the vocal minority here does not represent the vast majority of p&r's consumer base. And if Pandora, Frozen, Toy Story Land, Stars Wars Land and Disney Springs were not all in some state of active development then I'd be singing from the spirited hymnal. But all that stuff is happening. While the folks just to the north are doing all the things the cynical accuse the mouse of. Yet not a peep from that fan base. Curiouser and curiouser.

i still dont understand how they can be developing so much stuff at WDW and make cuts... perhaps they just believe they have too many people working there?
when you think about it logically, with so many closures at DHS, less staff are going to be needed on that site.
