Ok, so 10k people per day on GotG. 6000 LL per day. $33 million a year. If it averages that every day over the course of a year for 14 years, the ride will be paid off! Good job, Bob & Josh!
Are you seriously that naive or just delusional? Leaving aside message board warriors or tourists who are talking about ROI of rides now, so you honestly think that for the entire history of WDW that the CFO and executive committees were not discussing ROI during budget meetings? Do you think new construction expenses and projects weren’t judged based on cost vs revenue? Disney isn’t a charity. It’s a publicly traded company any major new project if going to be judged on roi. The entire Program of Project Future from its inception had ROI analysis built into it. It was in fact one of Roy’s major roles in the program. You think a Fortune 500 business just decided to not be a business for awhile?Ok, so 10k people per day on GotG. 6000 LL per day. $33 million a year.

You know, it's ridiculous that ROI for a theme park attraction is even a subject. Yeah, it's a business, but for decades, quality attractions brought in the people and they didn't have to worry about, "*Gasp!* What if the ROI is xx years instead of yy years??" This is the exact crap I was afraid of when Bob 1.0 was installed as CEO. Yes, Eisner needed to go, but what a lot of us didn't want was someone worse. Guess what? It's been worse ever since.
I said HALF of GotG was 900/ hour. It averages AT LEAST 1800 per hour. This will get better as the team operating it gains experience. The ride can handle well over 2000+ an hour if operating efficiently. It is a money making machine. That’s not even factoring in the increased attendance.Ok, so 10k people per day on GotG. 6000 LL per day. $33 million a year.

The thing is that what you are saying is correct. They’ve been about to hugely monetize the parks and the new attractions have been a part of driving that revenue. If anything, it should encourage to invest more in the parks to continue to strengthen that revenue stream.
And if it pushes other attractions to the Genie+ inventory then it also incentivizes selling that and its revenue.
