    ding ding ding ROUND TWO...and in this corner

    Does Roy have some ulterior motives in play here with this requested email campaign? We just saw the results of 43% of Disney stocks being voted to withhold their votes for Michael Eisner. What may I ask is sending all this email to Michael Eisner's email address? I do not see any real way in...

    Comcast makes offer to merge with Disney

    If Comcast were to sell the Theme parks, it sure would be interesting if Roy and Stan, along with Pixar, were to buy this the Theme Parks along with the rights to the Classic Disney movies (both animation and other Classic non-animation Disney movies). This would bring back more of the...

    Another Disney Coaster problem

    Tokyo Disneyland Rollercoaster Derails Well, it appears this time that Disney paid for maintenance is not the cause. From my understanding of this park, the Oriental Land Co. is fully responsible for the financing of maintenance and Disney pretty much is there just in name. This still...

    Stanley Gold and Roy Disney will be on CNBC today

    Thanks hopemax. I was kicking myself when I saw that I had missed it, but there you are to save the day. The interviewers did sound a bit harsh from the reading. Panthius

    Guru predicts Brother Bear to hit $100-110

    Only a 4% drop. That is unbelievable! Did Lilo and Stitch have a similar drop to this? If I remember correctly, Lilo opened with just over $26 million, but I may be mistaken. What was the following week for Lilo? Any way you look at it, I think this is a tremendous result for Disney, let's...

    disney tests free roaming audioanimatronic dinosaur at dca

    looked at the pictures and I thought it looked kind of cheesy, but then I took a look at the video clips, and WOW! That is just the coolest thing I have seen in a long, long time. WOW! Pan

    Carousel of Progress Question

    I do believe there are a couple of reasons, none of which include any current goal to rid Disney of all old attractions. The primary reasons for its seasonal opening are popularity and maintenance costs. The costs to maintain all the moving parts for the CoP are extensive when dealing with...

    The End of Spaceship Earth

    I recall reading that Time Racers is going to be a moving theater type of ride. That to me does not sound like a thrill ride by any stretch. The name Time Racers may sound fast and very thrill like, but everything I have read regarding this attraction indicates it will not necessarily be a...

    Was this really Cinderella Castle?

    I never saw the castle in the shape of a cake in person, but looking at pictures I am amazed at this transformation. I think it is very, very funny to look at, and I think it must have been very neat to see the castle look like a cake in person, of course knowing that Cindy would be getting her...

    Disney Ice Cream, Novelties and Yogurt?

    Is thisw a good thing or just the further dilution of the Disney name? I personally think Disney name has lost much luster over the years because of all these deals they have signed to slap their name on everything and anything as long as the almighty $$$ figures are right. Panthius

    It's Almost Official - Bye, Bye, Angels

    Taking the series in sweeps might not be as good as it could have been, but it is still better than bowing out in the first round. Also, if the Ducks win the Stanley Cup, how many additional millions would this give Disney if a sale of the team were to follow this season? I think that would...

    It's Almost Official - Bye, Bye, Angels

    Hopefully the Ducks will win the Stanley Cup and The Walt Disney Company can take advantage of that to sell them. What a fortunate couple of years it will be for Disney if both of their teams win their respective championships, allowing Disney to sell them for at least decent money. Panthius

    To Queue or Not To Queue

    Test track is a very interesting attraction for my wife and I. I had read here about Test Track being a great attraction, but my first experience with Test Track was less than great. My wife and I had gotten to Epcot early in the morning, and we had enterred through a "side" door almost...

    Just rec'd call from CRO about POFQ ressie

    Personally, I would demand an upgrade for the same price since you and your family are being inconvenienced by having to now change your plans that you had worked out for your Disney Vacation. Disney should hae known when they were going to be working on the French Quarter and should not have...

    Bringing In the Money

    It may have been low budget/low risk, but it only further dilutes the Disney name in my opinion. This is a very short sighted way of making animated movies. Eventually, there will be no movies left in the vault to have low budget sequels made of, and what will happen at this time? There will...

    More layoffs and cuts.....

    After hearing the talk of all the numbers, I am curious what percentage of the attendance of Universal and Disney is from International guests. I have no idea what the answer is to this question, but that might be one other reason for the difference in recent park attendance trends. Panthius

    More layoffs and cuts.....

    This has to be good for Disney employee's morale as can be seen by the comment from one of them. Panthius

    What are your thoughts on this lawsuit??

    Rather than chicken wire or any type of net under the upper tracks, how about a net or something similar on the back of each seat, or somewhere, to store any loose items that the guests may have. Something similar to Dinosaur for instance should be sufficient and there would be no danger of...
