No offense, but that is one of the most meaningless analogies I've ever heard.

<<Without slavery America wouldn't be where we are at today.>>

These are the types of ridiculous statements that in my mind completely undermine your position. Comparing what Eisner did while CEO of TWDC, to slavery in America, is dumb.

The defense of Einser cracks me up.
He did good from 1984 to 1994 ...
from then on it was all down hill.

"These are the types of ridiculous statements that in my mind completely undermine your position. Comparing what Eisner did while CEO of TWDC, to slavery in America, is dumb."

My you guys are so literal. It was simply a statement saying the ends don't always justify the means. And I was in no way, I repeat, NO WAY comparing Eisner and slavery.
And as far as Eisner's bullying people. Ask George Lucas and John Lassiter how well Eisner managed Disney's resources. If Eisner wasn't such an ass Star Tours would have been upgraded 10 years ago. And now that he is gone we get a new Star Tours and Pixar didn't walk.

HELLO ....

cough-Oriental Land Co.-cough!

If the Tokyo Disney Resort WERE owned and operated by the US based Walt Disney Co. ... DisneySea would like something like DCA!

I'm out of here .......
this talk of Eisner IS a waist of time.

He did plenty of damage that is taking YEARS to reverse.

HACK AT YOUR DEFENSE of this man all you want.

bye!

DAK, while lush, was weak when it opened and 10 years later is very little better. Foliage does not a theme park make. And Michael Eisner didn't build TDS, the OLC did. If it was up to Eisner TDS would be chocked full of portable mad mouses and wave swingers.

That TDR is owned by someone else is beside the point. It was created by the company, under his leadership. AND DAK *is* owned in whole by TWDC, which you oh-so-conveniently ignore because it doesn't support your argument.

That's the second time today someone has said thet to me.
To exound upon my DAK statement. I feel the DAK is a beautiful park, but it is lacking in sveral departments. 1. Lack of attractions 2. the lack of any way to keep the place open past dark.
Its a slightly more than a half day experience.
We were done with the park by parade time and no one had any desire to return later in the vacation.
All times are Pacific Time (US)
