Personally, what I hope for yet never expect to see is Parks & Resorts gaining the same kind of independence from Burbank that Marvel, Pixar, and ESPN have. Those parts of the company are run by people who treat their position like their dream job, and not like a stepping stone to something else.
Based on that criteria Lasseter is even less likely to be CEO:
I thought it was Staggs that realized New Fantasyland didn't need so many large meet & gropes, and caused large one in the middle to get replaced with 7DMT. Which, admittedly isn't all that great a creative stretch, but if he, Jay & (not so) silent Bob share one creative instinct between them, it's almost exclusively his.
He's under contract until next year

Throw all the monies at him!!
And as far as we know... he's not being considered is he? Same thing applies. He is valuable to the company working "behind the scenes" but not as the public representative. The best he can hope for is to be an influential creative leader that can get things done. He does, however, seem to have talent and a strong love for Disney. That really makes him more likely then Rasulo, but, he still doesn't have a ghost of a chance. He also has a reputation of having a bit of an elbow bending problem as well.
Chances are remote that either guy is seriously being considered so you may be on to something. My prediction is Rasulo ends up as CEO somewhere. Not a company as big as TWDC, but he has operations experience, finance experience and most important he is relatively liked by Wall Street.

Other than mostly adding nothing before selling to Premier Parks and abusing the Looney Tunes property at any occasion, I'm not sure what you're referring to. There was mostly nothing between Texas Giant in 1991 and Mr. Freeze in 1998 (the time TW operated SF).
