They're getting a whole month of TRON previews!!I saw posts from before I think that some cast were happy Iger was returning. I’m not sure how his return could benefit them.
No.Iger needs to be replaced soon, after what happened at the earnings report today. He’s gone crazy!

Read the thread.What happened on the earnings report?
Or is this a joke in reference to McCarthy’s last supposed excuse for firing Chapek?
I did/have…. and I listened to the earnings call.
I was upset over him announcing more sequels to Toy Story, Frozen, and Zootopia, like he’s forcing Jennifer Lee and Pete Docter to have them made.Ok, let me rephrase this since I didn’t mean this literally. What specifically did Iger do/say on the earnings report that would get him replaced?
Wouldn’t be surprised if he would have to undo his Fox purchase in order to save Disney. (Only the 20th Century, Searchlight, and 20th TV assets would be sold off though.)Bob Iger Gets Blunt: Hollywood Can’t Give Up on the Old Until the New Starts Making Real Money

That’s how I read into all of that yesterday as well. Their main focus is their stock price and making shareholders happy again, not their customers.If there was a worthy successor.
The hyperbole in the slides posted above by Penguin illustrates they don’t have any intention in restoring value or customer satisfaction. They’re trying to appease shareholders (many of whom are as clueless about the legacy of the parks as management is) whilst rolling back on carefully selected items that are of little or no expense to the bottom line in an attempt to say “we’re listening”.
I think their order of priority is:That’s how I read into all of that yesterday as well. Their main focus is their stock price and making shareholders happy again, not their customers.
I think you nailed itI think their order of priority is:
1) self-preservation in fighting off proxy battle
2) maximizing shareholder value
3) making the right people happy
4) making their customers happy
I think it’s even worse. The D+ stuff* has been so disruptive both internally and externally that even if they really wanted to do something in the parks they’re hamstrung.If there was a worthy successor.

Yep and most of us here see Iger for what he is.Remember when cast members were crying and people were chanting Iger's name on Main Street like he was the savior? Good times.
Some fail to recall during the 2009 layoffs where many levels of management and office / project staff were laid off, Iger was in charge.Remember when cast members were crying and people were chanting Iger's name on Main Street like he was the savior? Good times.
