Showing Pride Rock ride model.
This 'meeting' is normally not a venue for new announcements. This is a state-of-the-company thing. Only a few pearls may drop.Do we expect anything interesting at all? I can think of a few things that could come up given the current climate but [redacted].
How much can a person pay to be accompanied by a BDX droid during their Galaxy Edge visit?

Yeah, that wasn't what I was asking.
More the stuff in these shareholder proposals...
Q: How are you making creativity more creative? And putting that into the parks?
A: Iger: Reorganized company to give more power to creatives (as opposed to bean counters). It has paid off this past year with theatrical and critical success in studios.
For the parks: [to paraphrase...] IP, IP, IP.

Q: Strategic vision for growth and more shareholder value.
A: Iger.. Yeah, we've been trying to make that happen, a-duh. [Said in a more corporate way.]

Q: For domestic theme parks, they haven't been keeping up with capacity, and prices may be too much.
A: Iger... Was there on a weekday in March, and all parks in WDW were pretty busy. So, yes, we get a lot of people. So, the park additions mentioned at the top of the meeting are to build out capacity and make parks more valuable.
We're also trying to find ways to make parks more accessible. E.g., lowest priced ticket at DL has been that way for years. [IOW, we have discounted offers for some parts of the year]
