    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    This Bob retiring being replaced by another Bob which was then fired and replaced by the retired Bob (now unretired) pending selection of a replacement for Bob which just keeps dragging on in one long melodrama / reality show / soap opera has gotten stale and old. It's as if a group of bored...

    News Disney Releases Fiscal 2025 Executive Compensation as CEO Bob Iger Totals $45.8 Million

    Hmmmm. Wasn't his compensation package quite a bit more like back in 2018? If compensation is performance based, he has been steadily slacking.

    runDisney Race Season 2026 - 2027

    I was a charter member of club runDisney, full disclosure, I have not renewed my membership. The return does not justify the investment for me. I am happy to register with the masses. As for the wheelchair, push chair, blind and other participants with challenges I say they all should have a...

    runDisney Race Season 2026 - 2027

    So, then there is no integrity at run Disney. A. Every person with a bib at each event has paid for the right to be there. B. Club runDisney members get to register ahead (as in earlier) of non-members assuring them entry. C. All participants upon registering are required to enter...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    The ratings do. Advertisers do. Corporate executives looking at the bottom line do. There are three late night show hosts with ratings in the toilet. At one time there were limited channels and entertainment possibilities late night, that situation changed quite some time ago. If a show...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    What public demand? Just no contract renewal after this extension. Have some time to bring in someone actually entertaining and funny that will actually raise the ratings.

    runDisney Race Season 2026 - 2027

    Do the races need to start at EPCOT? There is a tremendous amount of parking lot space where the now ancient history, NASCAR track, once was for example. There is plenty space for an expanded start area on property. Also, the first 1 - 2 miles of any course can be routed through a wide...

    runDisney Race Season 2026 - 2027

    Yes, times have changed. I consistently am a C corral runner though I have met the time / pace requirements for the B corral several times. Supposedly by having people with like running paces start in groups with the fastest pace groups of runners in front a smooth start and flow to the event...

    runDisney Race Season 2026 - 2027

    The 5K and 10K races are very popular and should have more BIB's (spots) available. The pace should also be 18 min per mile rather than 16. Excellent distances for the power walkers, slow runners and family members that just want to have fun and enjoy a run at Disney. For the avid runners...

    Does anyone else think Galaxy’s Edge is a misfire?

    Good point. BUT, why can there not be Star Wars Weekends at Galaxies Edge (i.e. Batu)?

    Does anyone else think Galaxy’s Edge is a misfire?

    What happened to the detail themed, sit down, Star Wars dining experience? (actual restaurant) maybe with an actual stage show as before when there were Star Wars weekend shows. Follow the character dining model.

    Just want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas.

    Does anyone else think Galaxy’s Edge is a misfire?

    Yes, plenty of Star Wars music score that can be played throughout the land as background. Interesting how the unimaginative imagineers have not imagined setting the mood and ambiance with music / sound.
