184 was the peak. Pretty much half. trying to claim Chapek is responsible for this mess, while Iger refused to step away (or give up his shower) is a tap dance. The leadership was the same and you know it.

The current leadership is squarely responsible for deflating TWDC stock by more than half its peak. Any mention that the current leadership is a better option and one should vote for the status quo, is a true head in the sand moment. Wow…just wow.

As opposed to the current regime? 🤡

Yes. To a certain extent. However, during the recent decline, they ignored some of those fan-tested storylines, to adopt commercially failed storylines written under disney leadership - like Ms Marvel. That, combined with terrible execution since End Game, is what caused marvel's brand decline...

Wow. This is actually a brilliantly stated explanation of why Kennedy may still be there. I had been scratching my head at this for a while. Her track-record with Lucasfilm, following the Disney purchase has been abysmal. She's overseen the destruction of every major Lucasfilm franchise (and...

It probably cost alot more than $300M, once you consider reshoots (which rarely get included in the posted budget). They actually had to bring in John Williams to re-record score sections, the reshoots were that significant. Then you add in massive promotion - the real Disney cost of this...

...and Im saying a great deal of Chapek's bad, was really Iger's bad. So while I agree that anything over Chapek, the fact of the matter is that bringing Iger back is very much a doubling down on alot of the things that were ushered in on Chapek's watch. It's just going to be candy coated now.

instant, massive upgrade? You do realize that the vast majority of Chapek's moves over the past 2 years were basically Iger initiatives that were ham-fistedly delivered by Chapek? The only difference between these two is in careful vs painful presentation of bad ideas. Nothing more. Iger...

AFAIK, Disney was looking at rather broad layoffs in the immediate future. While Chapek is largely considered the reason for the company's dire situation (whether appropriately assigned blame or not), layoffs under his watch would not have gone over well. I think everyone in the boardroom knew...

what's that definition of insanity again?

no gunshots? good lord, this company needs to really stop.

Thanks for the clarification, folks! much appreciated!

Hey Gang, I've got a multi-family trip coming up for xmas week and we've all developed a few questions regarding Genie+. I'll be traveling with my family, a second family who's staying on property at a Walt Disney World hotel and a third family who is staying off property (not at a WDW hotel)...

Thanks for being on the spot to raise your phone to record it. Much appreciated! Every time I witness something worthy of recording, like this...I stare like a moron....and then after its over, turn around to whoever is behind me and say "did you see that?" when I could have recorded it and...

I had to call WDW website technical support today to address an issue on MDE. It kept showing old reservations that were canceled over a month ago, and I wanted them to try to fix it as we're about 25 days from our trip. I had to navigate through several menus, giving the automated menu my...

Why? Did I miss something (this thread can be a laborious read)?

Hey! Much appreciated! I can't possibly imagine that you were one of my attackers, with the above decent & respectful post...and I don't think its worth my time to go back and take notes on who it was - Im really kinda over it!. But I appreciate it regardless. Thank you! Sadly, I think...

Actually, I didn't say it either....my original comment was severely misinterpreted (or purposefully mangled for false pretext). My original statement was that our immune systems were not being exercised....and the combatives you refer to, put words in my mouth and claimed that I stated our...

This is going to be a thing for years to come. As a nation, we spent 18mo at home, masks on in public, washing our hands 3x more than normal, hand sanitizer, distancing. The end result is that our natural immune systems have not been exercised….anywhere close to what our immune systems had to...

Anyone have any updates on what's going on with Hoop Dee Doo?
