Creator's Key Takeaways
I think Josh is the guy. I do believe that. I don't agree with every decision that he's made or that's been made in his regime.
And Adana Walden scares me. It's not anything. I'm not knocking her for her the job she's done. She's done a spectacular job, but I just don't want that as the CEO of the Walt Disney Company.
Fix the ride. It's getting ridiculous now. The D23 is a year away. That is 12 months from now.
Imagine this. Imagine being at the Magic Kingdom and looking across the lagoon and seeing the outlines of each building accented with these beautiful white lights and none of them are out.
