"ould have to write off $100 million in Delta Airlines aircraft leases"
They should take the planes back and create Disney Airlines. The female stewardesses could dress up like Minnie Mouse and the gay male stewardesses could dress up like Minnie Mouse.
Stay away from the theaters, and Napster, Napster, Napster, freeps!
Heh - and just wait until china nationalizes that new park...
I was living in Southern California when Disneyland opened -- a young kid, needless to say. That place has been a huge money-mill, and fantastic success for so many decades, it is hard to feel sorry for the owners at all...they have done VERY VERY well.
Earth to Mickey Mouse, Earth to Mickey Mouse: Miramax junk don't sell.
They already did that? Twice? So what?
They haven't received the message yet? American's are so not in to being lectured by stars -- many of whom are under-educated at best and pompous as all get out.
Happiness would be seeing Disneyworld in Whore-lando close and returned to Orange groves. I can dream, can't I?
Boo hoo....NOT
What Disney has become is laughable. They have no creative talent left. I really don't want to spend $40 to be preached from the liberal leftists in Hollywood. I just don't buy anything that says DISNEY ever!! In the future Disney anything will be a joke to our kids, how sad and in most cases now people in Hollywood are completely cluless to how us "little people" live and think. ARRRGH! Oh for one good earthquake and lots of New Ocean view property.
Did they look behind the sofa?
That didn't take long.
Disney was making money hand over fist with Pixar.
Disney provided distribution for the films and got more of the profits and owned the rights to all the films.
Pixar was doing the actual film making work and wanted more money, but Disney won't pay. It seems they chose poorly.

Under their current arrangement, Disney distributes all of Pixar's films in exchange for 12.5 percent of the box-office revenue, and the two companies split the profits. In addition, Disney owns the rights to all movies made by Pixar, which lacks its own distribution arm.
