Wow, I missed a lot in a few short days.
A finger can be pointed at Eisner for things like JIYI, because like the full-Eisner supporters have stated he chooses which are good enough to become rides. The imagineers come up with the ideas to save the park/company which in turn saves him from being fired.
So for everyones sake, lets just say its the fault of Eisner for approving bad rides and changes and the imagineers for not coming up with a good plan. But I must say most of the blam is on Eisner because he has to choose what hte public will and wont like. I think Eisner needs an advisor in the parks area, a regular park loving Joe, who can speek for the majority of the public.
Its true that the CM's are way way way underpaid for a job such as dealing with the vacation going public. I also think that it must have been jaw drooping when the animators salaries were dropped from $200,000 a year to $100,00 a year, because Disney decided they had no REAL competition.
Disney has proved that it makes many mistakes, all with Eisner at the head. THink about it, decline in park sales, Disneyland Paris, giving most of the money generated by Tokyo Disneyland to Orental Land Company, Disney loosing Pixar, as well as tons of other mistakes which caused many top level exces. to leave Disney for other companies.
Then Dinsey, like many other companies, throw huge bonuses to the CEO's to blind them from whats happening to the company. I think that the board has been lazy, insted of trying to fix the problems, they pay to cover them up, or put out more money to fix it, and fail yet again (e.g.-JIYI).
Then Eisner is bone-headed enough to build Hong Kong Disneyland when he is crying brokesville....
