Of course you think this discussion is going no where because you can’t acknowledge reality. Why would SpaceX waste valuable funds in a Disney attraction for advertising when there is absolutely no need to advertise their services this way? Disney is rolling in dough regardless and it’s time to let Disney fully fund their own attractions without compromising to satisfy a corporate message from the sponsorship.
“With a $0 Ad Budget, Tesla Just Pulled Off One of the Greatest Marketing Stunts Ever. Hitching a ride with SpaceX, it becomes the first car in orbit”
SpaceX spent $500 million to launch a new rocket. It’s rather ridiculous to think that any of this money will go to a mere Disney attraction.
So keep saying this elusive corporate sponsorship exists when even the Norway government abandoned their own pavilion and the private company soldout at a loss. Here’s the story.
“NorShow sold back its interest in the pavilion to Disney in 1992 for $26 million, a loss of more than $8 million on its initial investment of close to $34 million. The Norwegian government continued to support the pavilion for a five-year term from 1992-1997 with a contribution of $200,000 a year because they felt it was a good promotional tool.
They renewed again for an additional five-year term, but finally decided in 2002 to drop all financial support against the strong recommendations of their American embassy, feeling they were not receiving the same tourism benefits from having the pavilion at Walt Disney World.
Disney did make repeated attempts, even offering the opportunity to have Norway update the pavilion for a mere $9 million and contacting groups like American Norwegian Chamber of Commerce and the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise for continued support from Norway, but to no avail.”
That’s why Frozen went into Maelstrom.
