I'm going to get hate for this but I wish people would stop putting him on a pedestal. He's no different than the rest of them.

Totally agree, he’s just as bad as chappie but people think he’s pretty

Recorded short statement from Jeff Vahle playing.

This was the audio that was played in park.

Chapek is basically a Walmart manager…and there you go

I'm surprised Bob doesn't have a Blue Light Special in the Emporium only it's not on sale he has jacked up the price

 

[vikescaper]

I got one!

That is 100% my perception. His intentions MAY be good but as a CM I'm incredibly skeptical.

So just got off JC. The new scenes were clever. As for the skipper. She was all nasally clever. Couldn’t understand I word she said. Get her a cleanex! Also, the divider between her and us gets in the way. You may think it’s a COVID divider. It snot.

I lost all respect for him with how they handed the Disney stores and their cast. He’s a scumbag with a pretty smile and sports jacket.

Exactly. I feel this is TWDC tradition, we need someone to run the place into the ground before a saviour comes to the rescue. And it’s not going to be Josh. I tried really hard to be positive as long as I could, but this week broke me. I just hope eventually we can recover somewhat.

and so it began.

In case the reference was missed: about 80% of the remaining Disney stores were closed on short notice and the staff was dumped.

and from a business angle…they didn’t fix shopDisney at all - it sucks - and the new target efforts look like bad 192 gift shops from 1988 (with less stuff)

Can you translate any of that for the kids at home?

i feel like I’m in the movie Sneakers

Every time I see him this is all I can think about.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Well the lack of a full entertainment lineup is definitely COVID related, and I would connect that with substance. But each day they are reopening more and more. 18 months is a long celebration. Hopefully as they get more people back to work there they can continue getting entertainment options to a better level.

Unfortunately experience has to make you skeptical of their goals/intentions.

covid is a problem, a reason, and an excuse. They control some of those details

Still here enjoying breakfast at the Poly.

Some Guests were just seated across from me with four big bags of merch and they are saying they are dissapointed regarding 'nothing being left'.
So....completely sold out of the day-of stuff?

[Disney Analyst]

I mean it’s fine… but also pathetically the bare minimum.

 

[Figments Friend]

To whoever posted that big pic of Chapek -

Gah!
That popped up on my screen and made me jump.
Please, I'm eating!
Warn me next time!

If I was down there today, it would have been a good time to just hang by the pool.
