Do we know how many decades D,Amaro intends to stay?

The time was right the first time he left. Sadly, the successor was not. Not that Josh is great, but Chapek was well in over his head.

I do think park operators and WDI should be separate entities. I would prefer WDI to have more power over the operators and executives however.

As long as it's not Vahle.

Roy was technically CEO in Walt's day. Neither Iger nor Chapek had anywhere near the amount of charisma that Walt and Eisner did.

The former I am betting on happening. The latter I am not quite as optimistic about.

Merging Consumer Products and Parks was one of the worst ideas in company history.

I respect Ouimet's opinion and I hope he is right.

The former is almost destined to happen. The latter I can't see happening.

The Eisner that built DLP or the Eisner that built DCA?

I will be shocked if COP is still a thing by the time D'Amaro retires.

Peltz is an idiot though I agree D'Amaros selection is not surprising.

He was as much of a parks guy as I am a video games guy. Barley use them and the only way I can get passionate about them is if I am being paid and even then, my passion has its limits. You would not want me running Nintendo basically neither should plastic salesman Chapek should have been ever...

I would love it too, but I don't think it's going to happen.

I would actually be overjoyed to see the parks taken from the internal rot of the current WDC and placed under the protection of people who would actually care.
