2015 Shareholders Meeting: Game Thread

[sshindel]

So Bobby, while we're talking about Star Wars... lets talk about the parks!

 

[CDavid]

Three Star Wars films in about 17 months? Did I hear that right?

Seems a bit much. Franchises have been greatly harmed before when you over-do it.

 

[sshindel]

Wedge Antilles backstory?

 

[CDavid]

Uh, yeah Bob. How many shares you bought back to prop-up that stock price?

 

[jakeman]

Wedge Antilles backstory?

He already has a backstory. Disney can stuff it if they think they are going to be able to top the Rogue Squadron books and comics.

I doubt it. We're been dying for a new movie since....... When was RotS? 2005/6? I think i can handle 3 in 17 months.

 

[asianway]

When he said 11 franchises did Woody walk on stage?

 

[Tobe]

We can play Bob's Brand Bingo... every time Iger mentions the word 'brand', drink a shot.

Sort of like the drinking game we play while watching TV shows about the parks and have to take a drink every time a CM says immerse or immersive or another form of the word. We're wasted five minutes in!

Star wars movies is a good thing.... Quicker they get released the quicker they put in park? LOL

 

[RSoxNo1]

My Magic+ and Magic Bands getting "rave reviews".
2017 opening of Pandora

 

[asianway]

No Bob that would be EPCOT

 

[RSoxNo1]

Bob Iger was at Shanghai last month... odds that he will be seen in the video?

 

[sshindel]

Do they usually release any of the photos / videos from these things?

 

[ABQ]

Was asking myself the same thing. 3rd person or 1st person video? Hopefully we'll see eventually.

 

[Disney Analyst]

So, was the big announcement the Star Wars movies?

 

[wdwmagic]

Apple Watch with Mickey Mouse on it... isn't that just a background?

More a face. The hands point to the time, and Mickey's feet tap with the seconds.

 

[sshindel]

AvalAr?

AvalOr Bob. Avalor.

 

[asianway]

So, was the big announcement the Star Wars movies?

Maybe that Avatar was MAGICal?

 

[wdwmagic]

Although if I remember correctly it wasn't so much announced as much as accidentally slipped by Eisner while responding to a question

Yep thats right. It was a slip.

 

[FoozieBear]

So excited about the Star Wars news! Can't wait!
