Yeah between that response and the social media buzz Dark Universe was getting well before Universal even officially announced it I think made Disney realize that there’s a real market in this space and they want a piece of that pie.
It was…but out of nowhere
Define out of nowhere?
I'm saying I don't see much difference between the two in terms of the degree to which they are lands not based on a specific film, per the quoted X post. Tropical Americas has Pueblo Esperanza as the grounding non-IP village, with Casita and a temple in the background. Villains, as far as we can tell, will also have some sort of original non-IP town with Art Nouveau influences, with Maleficent's castle and whatever the dark ride ends up being in the background.
No substance…no actual management intent other than some lip service…busy work for low grade WDI with no chance…promoted by them speaking out of turn on the internet (where they should not be” and spread by low paid blue and red (in the olden days) ids on chat forums…

I think it is just as foolish to pretend Chapek had no power as it is to pretend everything was his fault. He was not a small fry in the company before becoming CEO, and he is the one at the source of questionable things when he was. Iger deserves criticism but let’s not take away the criticism Chapek more than earned to do it. He had power as CEO, and he had power before too.
Opinions vary
Needs more "suddenly... Colonialists!!!"
