    2022 NCAA Football is back.......and so are the fans!

    And Down goes Georgia....Only WIndiana beats the Conference Championship/ Bye is the problem curse. Who'd have thought it? I'm hoping for a NCG Indiana v. Ole Miss.... ESPN would cry in it's many (MANY!) ads due to no "brand names" in the NCG.

    2022 NCAA Football is back.......and so are the fans!

    Wait a second: You are planning your daughter's life and med school based on a football team? Full disclosure... as the nom de guerre suggests; I am an alumus. Yes, the University has embarrassed alumni by its actions on the football gridiron. Yes the University itself has had scandals...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    while I am in no way in possession of knowledge that such a clause exists; insiders here and on other sites (as well as reporters who have covered business dealings with comcast and WB) have speculated and stated that such a clause exists. While that may be an internet rumor that leaked out to...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    It is most likely the Wizarding World. The contract with WB and the author most likely requires that Potter worlds are equal to or better than all other theme park areas.

    Disney's Next Acquisition Speculation / Discussion

    Disney is not entering this game. As large as Disney is--- this is wayyyy above Bob's pay grade. He cannot even buy a ticket to watch this fight, much less participate in it. Whether it's Apple's/Oracle's or Amazon's Money... all three of them could buy Disney outright and dismiss Iger in...

    News Guest dies, found unresponsive after riding Stardust Racers

    Please do not take this in any way but gently. Are you an attorney? Even a paralegal? If you are, then you are working for the family or know the family and are looking to increase the payout. Why do I say this? Because every and any attorney reading your comments is simply shaking their...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Just to add to the sampling; Here's one tomorrow from a midwestern suburb during prime time. Make of it what you will....

    Rumor What is everyone’s confidence level that a Villain’s land will happen?

    This is an extremely easy one. Less than 5%. CAVEAT: If Epic Universes Monsters blows the roof off the place in terms of attendance...and wayyy more importantly.... merchandise sales. Then... odds shoot up tremendously.

    News Disney plans to accelerate Parks investment to $60 billion over 10 years

    News Disney plans to accelerate Parks investment to $60 billion over 10 years

    As a resident of a state where marijuana is fully legal... I am begging all of you who believe Iger will fulfill this "could statement" in any way, shape or form --- "Please, for your brain's sake; get off the Ganja"...... Iger and Company really do not want to build any additional capacity in...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    He is/was. And for those who remark "Matt Ouimet who thought the grass was greener on the other side?"... turns out it was. Ouimet recognized Iger's ego could never let go of the power that comes with Disney (indeed, it took a Pandemic that Iger saw coming would shut down his company.. and...

    News D23 Expo 2022

    May we have some fun? Can we start unfounded rumors? :) 1) The ignoring of WDW was due to the DeSantis /Disney War? 2) The WDW diss was due to a Bob Chapek power play to show who is the boss? 3) These were the First Shots of the Last Stand of the Reedy Creek War? On second thought, never...

    News D23 Expo 2022

    I mean no disrespect. Yet the bottom line is, for lack of better terminology, the bottom line. For Today's Disney, the bottom line is profits to drive Bonuses, Wall Street stock price and that is all. The days of profits driving the company to "grow the company"and "create more content" are...

    News D23 Expo 2022

    Been a long time lurker, yet being in the State where God's hand left the earth when He formed it... (hint--see User Name :)) I very rarely add to this board as I am a long way from the Parks. However, as a VP of Marketing in the midwest; I am of the opinion they were not unprepared. A Corporate...

    News Disney plans to include a black Santa Claus at Walt Disney World this year as the company continues its diversity and inclusion program

    Let's wade in History for a moment. Can Santa Clause be black? Depends which version you think of. If you want to create a black Santa Clause, you may certainly go ahead...but it wouldn't be historically correct. 1: Santa Clause begins in the days of St Nicholas...a Greek Monk. Saint...
