Lol. You made a hyperbolic statement while calling someone else out on a hyperbolic statement.

I guess y'all missed the part where they said SWL in Orlando is opening this fiscal year.
This fiscal year ends Sep 30.

She misspoke and Iger corrected her right away.
Ah, I missed his whisper.
Nevermind.
At least we now know that it won't open before Oct 1.

Ok...I gotcha
30% is not realistic unless it’s tied to a global financial catostrophe...
I think in 02 we had a net down of maybe that...and that was people literally scared to travel rolled into a global recession.
5% would be treated as a borderline disaster by Disney...as would a 3% market share bleed to USO

Star Wars has a bigger following amongst younger people then you think, especially with all the animated series aimed at them.

It also has a much larger following among older people. It was mainstream for 40 years while comic books were niche for 75....
Which is why the management of it has been puzzling...
Anyway...i’m With some of the wizards on these boards that is NOT predicting a huge raw number influx...for a number of reasons

The direct quote from the earnings document for Paris is 'Lower operating income at Disneyland Paris was due to increased costs, partially offset by higher average ticket prices.'
At a guess I would say attendance was level as they don't normally mention something which is level whilst they mention an increase or decrease. This quarter compares to an anniversary quarter the year before so for attendance to be level is very good compared to what usually happens.

I agree. For my 8 year old son and his friends, both SW and Marvel are huge. He watched Star Wars Rebels through its entire run and is now into Star Wars resistance. I've taken him to at least 3 SW themed birthday parties in the last 3 months (contrast to only 1 marvel and one 'other').
SW:GE - My money is on June 21 officially in Anaheim, early November in Orlando. Been too busy to read/look more into quarterly numbers, maybe sometime later this week or next.
And I'm amongst those who think crowds in Orlando may not be as big as some within the gilded halls in Anaheim are predicting. Just a gut feeling thing.

Iger slipped the June opening in an interview about a month ago...think it was Forbes or the New Yorker.
From an operational standpoint...they really have to open Orlando around 11/10. Clears food and wine, relatively slow for a couple...busy but short holiday, then a little slowing followed by the end of the year crunch. Has to go that way.
I’ll be at the Anaheim one in August...may actually post a review (don’t know much about Star Wars though
)Can’t wait for my first Orlando visit in 2023...or whenever the rest of you go away

That he did. Plus the blackout dates for various AP's in California point to 6/21 as opening day, with previews happening on the June weekends prior to that.
I think the hard core SW fans do DL and bypass DHS altogether. They are going to be the same thing on both coasts, according to everything the talking heads have said, so I personally believe that many fans will simply skip the swamps, having been-there-done-that already in California. This could lead to lower-than-expected crowds and, in the event of that happening, terror and panic from TDO executives.
Blackouts start next week. June 21 is the weekend of press previews. The rest of the week is, I'm guessing, invited guests or the dreaded pay-for previews everyone is sure DL will do.
