Not an mba/accountant type that’s toiled under Bob the lesser for 20 years…to be honest.

They’ve become “institutional” at this point. Never anyone with tangible outside experience or takes. And that’s not good.

It doesn’t take 20 years to figure out their parks business…it takes a week or two walking around them with a good mind.

The parks had their best eras with a bunch of ww2 screwballs working on them…and then again after two outsiders where brought in…they had the “spark”

The last 15 years of parks heads have made tom staggs look like Leonardo davinci by comp…

Yeah, it rings hollow when the Burbank brain trust drones on about being a company of creatives and storytellers, yet installs the most business like cog from the company into heading arguably the most important division in the company.

It’s so weird how certain posters have such a hard *n for Iger. It always comes off as former disgruntled employee.

The man isn’t perfect and I’m glad he is leaving but the constant digs at him is hilarious because Disney is still succeeding despite the constant changing media landscape.

They are not gonna fire a bunch of random employees just because they were under his leadership.

Josh and co have minds as well as ideas of their own so that’s what I’m expecting going forward.

That phrase… does not mean quite what you might think it means. “Vendetta against” might eliminate any unnecessary misunderstandings. 👀
