[peterpanic74]

Anyone else currently listening to the webcast of the Shareholder's meeting? Iger's presentation in progress. Film clips replaced with muzak for online listeners.

Bob is not the world's most electrifying speaker...just sayin'.

Official business portion of meeting. Snooozzzzzzz :snore:

 

[peterpanic74]

Uh...no comment on this portion of the meeting. Interesting...

I guess ANYBODY can have a grievance these days. Oh well. To each their own...
:shrug:

 

[peterpanic74]

That was a long 5 minutes, indeed.

 

[peterpanic74]

Business portion over. Both shareholder proposals failed.

Questions up now. Should be interesting...:drevil:

 

[wdwmagic]

Thanks for the updates.

The questions generally tend to turn into people's personal crusades! We shall see if anything interesting comes out of it.

 

[peterpanic74]

True. I was thinking interesting as in "entertaining", rather than "enlightening"!:lol:

 

[peterpanic74]

2nd question is about Journey Into Imagination. Great sentiment, terrrrrrbile presentation. This guy will never get anywhere with this. what a waste.:brick:

 

[peterpanic74]

Guy wanted Dreamfinder re-instated for Epcot's 30th. Iger pretty much shattered the guy's dream, but he "promised" to "ask" the imagineers if they are still interested in Dreamfinder. Sure, right. :hammer:

Oh well. At least he tried.

 

[peterpanic74]

Little girl asks for CARS 2 merchandise for girls.

 

[peterpanic74]

Iger says military benefits will continue. Gets applause.

 

[peterpanic74]

Iger: No Global Park pass. Not ready to announce opening date for Shanghai.

Rasulo says too complicated, expensive to offer Global Pass.

 

[peterpanic74]

Guy asks about overbookings of ADR's, problem it creates with Dining plan.

Rasulo says "people are working on it".

 

[peterpanic74]

Question: FASTPASSES for Fantasyland attractions at DLR?

Iger: Capacity issues. FASTPASS not appropriate for all attractions.

He's right! Good answer, Bob!

Mentions doubled-Dumbo in FLE at MK. Refers to this as "big news" to die-hard fans. Huh?

 

[peterpanic74]

Here it comes, the annual question:

Question: SONG OF THE SOUTH on Blu-Ray?

Iger has "screened it twice" since becoming CEO.

He says "it's not appropriate to the values of the public today".

NO RELEASE FOR SONG OF THE SOUTH!
:brick::brick:

Try again next year, shareholders!
