@tommyhawkins It really is though. It’s not a theme park it’s a whole city. I guess the guests don’t really know that anymore

@JEMM2424 It's not a lifestyle. It's a theme park. You must get treat it as a lifestyle choice but these are professionals doing a job.

Jeff Vahle is 62 years old. He has put in his time (36years) . Let's not assume that executives who work at Disney are as obsessed with Disney as Twitter accounts dedicated to it. Not everyone has ambitions/egos to go higher. And Frontierland is not "Utterly destroyed"

@tommyhawkins They are making decisions to preserve the legacy of the parks. Every person working at Disney should be living and breathing that lifestyle. That’s how it used to be and that’s why you had such high retention in fast members.

@JEMM2424 Why should they be obsessed?

@BurnieOkief @StorybookAmuse I have been multiple times lol.

@JEMM2424 @StorybookAmuse The gray building is perfect. You need to go.

Remember how meh this looked a few weeks ago? It’s beautiful now! 😍 Can we please all agree to hold off judgement until rides are finished? Trust the process.

@bunifarcr @StorybookAmuse Honestly I won’t ride it till lines die down in year or two. YouTube will be just as good.

@JEMM2424 @StorybookAmuse So are you gonna boycott the ride cause you hate what it looks outside.

@joshandersonnh @DisTouristBlog It just doesn’t reach that level of theming Disney resorts are famous for. It’s like the riviera. It’s a nice resort but doesn’t feel like a disney resort.

@DisTouristBlog The negative comments are hilarious. People will visit this resort and when they do, they will love it and want to stay at it more than once. These renderings since the start have always looked amazing. Truly, when has WDW produced an objectively BAD deluxe resort?

NEW: Following fan backlash to last week's reveal, Walt Disney World released new concept art. If the goal was to turn reactions from negative to positive, mission accomplished. It's not perfect, but Lakeshore Lodge has potential to be a great WDW hotel... disneytouristblog.com/disney-world-r…

@WDWNT Aren’t these mostly amusement parks not theme parks

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Guess we will see my moneys in no 👍🏻

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson More complicated things have been done.

Newly obtained court records via @GabrielleRusson reveal how Disney quietly maneuvered behind the scenes during its battle with Ron DeSantis. The story details how it impacted the Magic Kingdom expansion and more drama happening behind the scenes. Story: floridapolitics.com/archives/79242…

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson I genuinely can’t see them bringing another contractor in though. The complexity of Walt Disney World would make it such a lengthy and complicated process not to mention the standards could slip. Reedy Creek energy service services as 238 employees that know the property well.

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson The contract was setup before CFTOD takeover and the expiration date was 2032 and included auto renewal. The lawsuit settlement updated the end date to 2028 and removed auto renewal.

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson To my knowledge it never lapsed.

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Do you know when it expired before that change?

@gatortebowfan15 @illsimpformoney @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Disney did an amazing job. It’s a unique place where a standard district doesn’t make sense. I’m not saying other cooperations I’m saying Disneys world was running great. And I find it troubling the new board was put in place to destroy reedy creek. It said so in the article.

@JEMM2424 @illsimpformoney @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson You don’t want a corporation, any corporation, writing their own laws and issuing govt bonds. While Disney World appears to have been extremely conscientious in running Reedy Creek, it’s not hard to imagine where it could go badly.

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Yes but they are so intertwined it would be hard to cut them out. Disney for all purposes is still very much mixed into cftod. It’s just a fact.

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson There are other companies they can contract with.

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson They renewed to my knowledge after the settlement. There was no realistic way of removing reedy creek energy services.

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Reedy Creek Energy Services is contracted by the district to manage the district utilites but CFTOD had said they were ending that contract. Not sure if that has changed recetly. Anyway the actual utilites infrastructure is owned by CFTOD not RCES.

@gatortebowfan15 @illsimpformoney @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson I don’t see why they shouldn’t control it 🤷‍♂️ it’s their land and they formally managed it better then any other district I’ve ever seen

@JEMM2424 @illsimpformoney @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Nothing really needed to change as an end result. Just the corporation couldn’t control the district, that’s all. There was no functional problem to solve.

@illsimpformoney @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Nothing really changed like I said. The CFTOD‘s primary goal is treating Disney well. And Disney still has ownership over the land and development rights. Not to mention they spun off reedy Creek power so that division doesn’t even fall into the CFTOD anymore it’s Disney owned.

@JEMM2424 @gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson Disney used to have 100% control of district business, even if they werent involved in it. They really dont have much power left.

@gatortebowfan15 @ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson They essentially still control it. The big change was the bake but things went back to normal

@ScottGustin @GabrielleRusson The end result is correct. Disney World has a friendly district but they don’t control it. No corporation should control its own government. This should’ve been done in the 1980s. Now could’ve it have been done and handled better, definitely.

@hufflepuff_owl @MikelandoKnight @ScottGustin @AliciaStella @GabrielleRusson @RonDeSantis They really didn’t… the district functions identically to how it did before. There was no chance besides the name. If anything permitting got easier

@MikelandoKnight @ScottGustin @AliciaStella @GabrielleRusson @RonDeSantis And yet Disney lost their special district…who won? lol.

@nonjediahsoka @wdwpro1 So you don’t know that Disney doesn’t have battery’s onsite to store energy. Do you have any documents from ready creek energy services? I’m not disputing it but it just sounds like your grasping at air.

@JEMM2424 @wdwpro1 It is widely known that solar does not store like other energy sources. You end up having to sell off more solar than you use at times because you can’t store it. You lose money in the end.

This is insanely untrue. The solar farms aren't even hooked up to the parks.
