    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    I haven’t read through all the pages of this thread that I started but could there be a concern from Iger that given this hyper-political world he’s concerned that there are enough right wing leaning shareholders who may vote against Iger just out of spite?

    News Sunglass Hut opens in EPCOT's World Celebration Gardens

    I actually like having Sunglass Huts at WDW because I can use my AP to get a discount there.

    Can we talk about the elephant in the room?

    For some extra fun use a black light and see what happens. I believe this was the original inspiration for the H2Glow nights at Typhoon Lagoon.

    Does Rivers of America have a strong current?

    The site that shall not be named posted a story about a guest who fell overboard from a Tom Sawyer Island raft and said he was scared of drowning because the current is 3x stronger than that of Castaway Creek. I’m not disputing what the guest said but the rivers of America look like they don’t...

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    If you have a majority of the board and the CEO who is diametrically opposed to him perhaps the majority of the board would then come to its senses and start trying to improve things rather than bow to his pressure.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    I don't want to see Disney burn, I don't have a grudge against Iger. But the Disney company today, and specifically the parks are not what they were 10, 15, 20, years ago. Disney has lost much or most of it's magic and I don't see anyone on the current board who is willing to try to bring it...

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    Yeah, I guess I am leaning that way. I guess I'm willing to take a chance on something either positive or negative rather than go forward with what I know has been negative due to current leadership. What are the opinions of the two board members that he and Rasulo would be replacing?

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    If you're signed up through compushare on line I think they're distributed that way. Honestly this is the first time I ever paid attention to the board elections.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    I'm curious if any news outlets have asked our resident Disney expert @lentesta about any of this. I'd be curious to hear his and Jim's opinions.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    Well 9 pages into this thread I started and I still don't have an idea of how to vote (not that it matters). My thoughts are this: If Iger and the board came out with a mea culpa and said something to the effect of "we know we've placed priorities in the wrong place and we're trying to change it...

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    This is what I'm concerned about. I don't want the company destroyed. I just want it improved, back to focus on quality, guest experience, entertaining movies. My only thought is that having Peltz and Rasulo on the board might be enough of a wake up call to get the rest of the board and Iger to...

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    I've followed very slightly the whole Nelson Peltz, etc, board fight going on but am conflicted regarding who to vote for. I love Disney World, have been disappointed by what I see as a decline in innovation and the feeling of them resting on their laurels in the theme park space and confused by...

    News All-Day Park Hopping returns in early 2024

    I agree 100%. Also it's so silly that Disney even mentions you can go to your first park at 9am and then go anywhere else. Just lame.

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

    This is exactly right. It's like he's surprised by the mess he caused. Chapek just had no political acumen but I'm not sure most of the stuff he gets blamed for was actually his fault and not Iger's. Also Iger was the guy who picked him so Chapek is his fault as well.

    News All-Day Park Hopping returns in early 2024

    Great news, but why don't they just get rid of the reservation system for passholders. Still doesn't make any sense to me.

    News Disney World's Magic Kingdom is experiencing widescale attraction closures this morning due to a bear

    I believe the bear was trespassed because he didn’t have a ticket. He was also told he needed a park reservation to which he replied ,”I thought you guys weren’t doing that anymore.” “Not until January” the CM told him. He could be seen being escorted out of the park by Orange County Sheriff...
