HOW Many of YOU are listening to the Disney Meeting in Phila.?

[Pete's Mom]

Just tuned in. Who is talking now? It's not Eisner.

Dick Cook, head of Disney Studios is speaking now.

 

[Kimickey]

I'm listening in now. I'm trying to catch up to what they are talking about while I eat my lunch.

Well we all have the rundown of all the movies that will be coming to theatres. Any sound interesting that you must see?

 

[Tinkerbelle739]

Home on the Range. I was surprised to hear Roseanne Barr as one of the main characters!

Not much else sounded good enough to go see in the theaters, unless I missed something while I was at the bus stop.

King Arthur, maybe. Will it be animated or live action?

OOHHH, The Village sounds interesting! I love M. Night Shamalan
Too scary to take the kids to though!

I am not listening, but... on Save Disney I read that M. Eisner is "giving away tickets to the parks" and I want to know. WHERE IS MY TICKET?

By the way, the reason Michael the board are NOT paying attention is that at least some of the "shareholders" are professional troublemakers. THey buy a few shares of stock in about 100 companies and go from meeting to meeting yelling and fussing at the managment. (They have come to board meetings of companies where I used to work and they can be hilarious if you don't have to deal with them!)

Bambi is coming next March, Aladdin in October of this year. I knew about Aladdin, but not Bambi. Hopefully they'll have good lithos to go with the presales!

TOY STORY 3...I can't wait!!!! I love Toy Story. I am just hoping it is as good as the others!!! Hopefully they don't run it into the ground and it will become "just another sequel"

 

[Tinkerbelle739]

They are now discussing Disney Consumer Products. Speaking of Disney Princesses right now.

 

[Tinkerbelle739]

I would love to see the video of STARS wearing Mickey Tees!

 

[Ronda93]

Open Q&A is yet to come, right?

It still leaves a bad impression to turn your back when someone is speaking. Being a board member should be a tough job. Including listening to people you'd rather not.

>>I'm trying to listen but I don't want to turn up the volume too loud cuz I'm in a cubicle.<<

Those little earbud headphones I carry come in handy.

Thanks for the other thread Belle. I was wondering if there would be anymore threads on the different sections. It will be interesting to read what they say.

I was at the Shareholders meeting in Chicago a couple of years ago and that woman was there and doing the exact same thing. They are told they can ask one question and then go on to the next shareholder for their question but she just kept going on and on until people were yelling at her because no one else could get their turn. if anyone is a shareholder I would advise to go to at least one meeting. They are very interesting.

Some head of ABC programming is on now.

 

[GoofItUp]

Are the results of the vote going to be told during this meeting? I've missed about the last hour listening in......

 

[Pete's Mom]

I think Zurg and Zurg's Wife from our very own Disboards are there today!
