Great post DisOrBust. This really highlights what's wrong with these promotions. Appealing to the base sensory feelings of the guests and particularily the children of guests is not magical nor is it even very nice.
Many, many people are obviously impressed by great marketing strategies but then again Wal Mart is always busy and chain restaurants are putting mom and pop out of business so I guess it should come as no surprise.
I find it sad that Eisner brought Disney down to a number crunching company but at least he did institute some things that were still quality oriented (Disney on Broadway, The Cruise Line) but Iger seems content to just market, market, market ... But I guess we've got nothing to worry about, after all he did such a great job with ABC (hey Bob, Desperate Housewives and Lost are both hits, how come you were against them? ).
I hear next year's promotion Is "Year of Lighter Wallet".
