While I understand the concept, and wish it could work, that still doesn't answer WHO's idea Celebration was. The idea for EPCOT was Mr. Disney's. That I know. But is there any proof to suggest that he specifically had designs on expanding this idea into an actual city. As I understand from a dvd that my wife bought for me. His idea for EPCOT was to be used to stimulate ideas/creativity for cities of the future. NOT for Disney to actually design and build a city of their own, so to speak.
(btw - the information i refer to comes directly from a tv show Mr. Disney did when he brought his idea for EPCOT to the public.)
What I'm getting at here is that again we have an expansive idea which in theory and on paper seemed like a great idea. Problem is, again, it was a very risky proposition at BEST!! I for one would like to see The Disney Company return to its roots. I remain hopeful that there will be a return to great animation some day, with the return of Mr Roy Disney and Mr Stan Gold to the family.
While Mr. Eisener may have had his day, that day is now passed. By the way, Mr. Eisner came along in 84. I did some research, and found that the stock thru the mid 80's and into the early 90's remained in the range of about 10-12 $ per share. Now, if we was running the ship back then what was he doing? ANd clearly the growth that the company has experienced in the last 5-7 years I would think was spawned from well done animated features. NOT bad sequels. Anyway, off topic. I'll get off my soapbox now.
