It's now Sir Bob Iger

[Smiley/OCD]

Actually, it’s a poorly-kept secret that the Queen and Iger regularly held late-night poker games in the basement of the Rose and Crown.

You would think then, with all the negative reviews of the food you would have thought the Queen would have sent over one of her chefs…

Maybe Sir Bob can give folks a break, he is litterally Prince John from the Robin Hood movie. He "steals from the poor", everyone who feels obligated to give their kids the Disney expriance. Hundreds of thousands of lower/middle class families spend their retirment savings to accomplish the Disney Vacation. I am so over "Disney" squeezing every dollar out of the middle class to appeal to the wealthy.

If you are rich enough you can skip lines. If you are rich enough you get what you want.

The magic used to be real, now the money is all that matters.

Paying for parking at the resorts?
Paying for parking period? Something Walt said he would never do.

If you want to joust you have to be a knight. At least that's what I learned from A Kinght's Tale.

I only accept jousting knowledge that comes from a renaissance festival.

Actually he wouldn't have. There was no investure, as she died shortly after the list was updated. It'll be Charles (or maybe William) who will do the ceremonial part which actually confers it all

A lot of the Royal family do investiture ceremonies so you don't necessarily get if from the monarch. You don't have to go to London either there are ceremonies in other commonwealth countries and Embassy's so you could get your award from the ambassador or governor general acting for the monarch.

You can always go to the tourist trap in Kissimmee , eat mediocre food and enjoy the jousting at Medieval Times.

What an amazing moment for him and his family. Well done.

 

[FigmentJedi]

Well I suppose Bob Iger's IP shopping spree is a modern expression of the British imperial spirit.

Can Eisner get knighted too please?

Can Eisner get knighted too please?

Arguably would have been by now if he had put EuroDisney in London...

 

[Vclguy90]

I do love me some Johnny Williams, tho.

 

[Tom P.]

At the risk of being pedantic, I'd like to point out that an American cannot actually receive a knighthood. What Iger received was an honorary knighthood. And that does not entail the right to be called "Sir", so "Sir Bob Iger" is incorrect.

Congratulations to both Bob Iger and John Williams.
