Official Disney Meeting Thread, Live Right Now!

[Carrousel Lover]

Reinvented children's television?

I thought that was Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street. Oh...the commercialism of children's tv - yeah I agree with that one.

Paul MCCarthy?

Ahh, Andrews Brother, also on the new Steven King show. Didn't realise he had a catalog let alone one with Jacko.

 

[Bill]

JetX? What?

 

[GaryT977]

The animation studios are busier than ever? Is she kidding? The one animator left must really be busting his hump.

 

[Since1976]

Hmm... A not-so-subtle nudge to Pixar that Disney Channel contributed greatly to awareness of Finding Nemo...

Felt like a jab, really...

*hands Smirnoff to Travis*

ahh thanks Gary, needed that to get through this bs.

All this talk of Lizzie McGuire, didnt' Hillary Duff reject Disney's contract extension? Meaning there won't be any new Lizzie McGuire stuff?

 

[Since1976]

I'm really starting to get bored by all the spinning. But, of course, this is a shareholder meeting, not a party, so what should I have expected?

 

[civileng68]

lunch

I just got back from lunch and had to miss the last hour.

did I miss anything special?


Also, did they do the votes yet?

yes but with all of these shows they tape the shows very fast since the age of the star, they grow up really fast. So they still have new episodes. Plus the own the character so they can exploit for how ever long they want.

More like a prick... :lookaroun

 

[Bill]

Hillary Duff doesn't always have to be Lizzie either.:lol:

 

[HauntedPirate]

No new Lizzie McGuire stuff, most likely. They made 65 episodes, along with Even Stevens, so they cancelled new production. Why 65 episodes, ask ye? It's the magic number! 5 shows per week for 13 weeks. Lather, rinse, repeat.

 

[civileng68]

no wonder

NO WONDER DISNEY IS BECOMING BLAND, IS ANYONE LISTENING TO THIS MEETING OF THE DISNEY BOARD?

 

[Bill]

NOOOOO. NO ESPN!!! It's not our pleasure to listen to you!!!:hammer:

 

[stingrock23]

Like it or not, ESPN is a huuuuge moneymaker for the company.

 

[civileng68]

DRAB

They're dragging this on, fighting for their lives, knowing the inevitable.


HEY WAIT! EISNER IS AS GONE, THIS IS HIS WAY OF STAYING IN OFFICE.....................NEVER LET THE MEETING END!

You've missed a great deal of spinning. No votes yet.

They're airing ancient ESPN and ABC Sports clips? ?

 

[Lee]

No way I'm gonna go back and read 15 pages, so if this has been mentioned, forgive me.

Reuters is reporting that a source has indicated that the vote against Eisner is in the low 40% range. Huge.

And as a side note, Disney barred Jim Hill from the meeting. They felt he was collaborating too much with Roy. Sad.
