Eisner Facts

The fact is Disney is far better off now than they were 20 years ago, or even 30 years ago.

Why stop there?

The reality is that The Walt Disney Company is actually better off now than when Walt was running the show, heck even back to when it was The Disney Brothers Studio.

If only Ei$ner and Mini-ME had been there from the start, maybe the abomination that is Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom would have been scrapped, and we could have gotten CentralparkLand and Ei$ner's Florida Adventure instead.

Maybe we would never have had that inane comment about replicating pigs from The Dead Guy, and instead we could be cradling in our bosom a freshly paid for copy of Snow White XXVI:Men With Growth Hormone Deficiencies Invade Las Vegas!

Maybe we could have gotten rid of that cheap-A*#$ looking monorail crap! I hate waiting in line for that stupid thing. If Ei$ner had been there from the start, we'd have dedicated Magically Magical Bus Lanes, and there would be no need to slap dumb looking fake polynesian huts wily-nily around the big lake (another waste of resources, just think how many putt-putt courses you could put there!).

Rumor has it Mini-ME is already thinking of tripling (yes tripling!) the number of belching dragons...err...Magically Magical Mouse Movers...on the property.

So that means the newest resort, which is rumored to be built somewhere south of Celebration and supposedly will be called Disney's Sturdy Cardboard And Fiberglass Resort (yes, it will be the first ever Extra Value Resort) will have express Magically Magical Mouse Mover transportation every 4.5 minutes.

We can only dream...

Remember, without Ei$ner, the company would have been sold off to the highest bidder. That's right, that would have meant no more Feature Animation, no more research and development into CGI (this new medium...you should see what this young whippersnapper from The Dead Guy's college, Johnny Lassiter, can do with it!), no more pavilions dedicated to The Challenge of The Future (thanks GC), and no more Full Day parks. Thank Ei$ner that Ei$ner and Mini-ME were born!

I'm gonna miss Cou$in Mikey. Well, actually, no, I'm won't have to, because Mini-ME is still here to continue to excel at pursuit (rather than wasting time pursuing excellence).

ADDED IN EDIT:

One more last point... when evaluating a person like Eisner, or any other CEO for that matter, you can't just assume that anything positive (or negative) would or wouldn't have happened under another leader. As just one example, yes, Eisner ok'd hotels. But let's face it, anybody brought into the position had to start making use of the underutilized assets. ANYBODY given that job was going to build something. The question is, could somebody else have reasonably done a better job?

My point exactly.
