Disney profits up 20% on strength of theme parks

Sounds like the final coffin nail for Roy.

Sadly, the days of long park hours and full staffing for their shows have felt a final nail too. As much as I love Disney, it is definatley not the same place it was pre-Eisner!

That doesn't seem to be stopping people from going to the parks.

Not Yet.

Good point!

I myself am going in December for 2-3 weeks! I'm a mouse geek I guess! It is not what it was, but still better than most! What can you do?

After going the past couple of years, it just isn't holding up for me anymore. Obviously, Mission:Space is helping and building new rides (thanks to the new teams overseeing the parks after the last crew gutted the maintenance budgets). It will take a little longer to regain the magic, but this is a good sign it's coming back. After a co-worker swore never to go back after last year (the characters left the sign-ins on time and left a lot of kids on line upset as to why they couldn't get their signatures), I wonder if this is only a temporary spike.
