NBC Universal announces restructuring, Ron Meyer to continue overseeing former VUE

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

The newly formed NBC Universal, a child company of General Electric, announced yesterday the shuffling of several executives and their responsibilities. Ron Meyer, president of the former Vivendi Universal Entertainment that included theme parks, film and TV, will retain a similar position. He will now report to Bob Wright, the CEO of NBC and a board member for GE.

For the short term at least I guess we can assume that there won't be any substantial changes in the theme park ranks. I don't have an opinion on whether that's good or bad.

Considering the current ranks are giving us things like Shrek 4D and the Mummy (And the Royal Pacific), I think we can assume that this is a generally good thing... except for the whole selling the Lockheed site thing.

Yeah, I have to agree that was stupid. Assuming that they own some of the adjacent vacant land in Orlando, that still limits your possibilities compared to the options Disney has.
