Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

[Chadisa]

Dumb question - is this announcement happening at 1:30 Pacific? I literally just rushed home thinking it was 1:30 pm EST like a noob lol

Any chance this is an extension of Feige’s contract, which includes more authority or a restructuring of parts of the movie division?

I believe his contract is up soon, and he’s primed to ask for the moon. Both Kennedy and Horn are reaching the end of their careers, and they could position Feige as an heir apparent for one of them when he/she retires in the coming year(s).

I don’t want this to turn into another hate on KK thing, because her track record is impeccable (regardless of your TLJ feelings), but when she retires could Marvel and LucasFilm merge under Feige? Also could explain the Spidey news popping this week.

Just a random thought, but figured I’d throw it out.

I'm still really unsure what this could be, I'm down to

1. Disneyland India
2. Cruiseline new Private Island (but not really a secret)
3. Customer loyalty program of some sort.

I think Disney is going to Buy Sega...they need a video game division all of their competitors have one or a partnership with one. Sega is the only one that they could afford to buy easily.

So you obviously know what it is?

Sega are a pretty mediocre studio/publisher. I would hope they have higher ambitions.

They were rumoured to buy Twitter a couple of years ago?

Is it them launching their own social media platform?

Temper, huh? That must be a clue! What could it be...
You know what's tempered?! Glass!!! That's it! Disney is going into the glass making business!!!
Or maybe Temper is short for something? Like temperature!!! Of course!! They've figured out how to control the temperature at their parks!!!

Disney stock splitting?

 

[bartholomr4]

Disney stock splitting?

Just takes a vote of the board and a notice to the SEC.... Not sure you'd need an hour to talk about it, or why you would announce at D23, vs annual shareholder meeting!

Whoops, got my wires crossed with the Parks panel.
