Save The Magic's mission is to return the Walt Disney Company back to the quality for which it used to be famous while Walt Disney was alive.

WORLD FAMOUS DAVE ENSIGN IS BACK. Now I have a big workspace in an old horse barn! That's right, a barn. Mother fuckers. This is my new desk!

We want EPCOT back. Fixing this park begins by dispensing with the "celebration" non-theme and restoring the original theme of futuristic progress through science, technology, and imagination. We need a vision of a positive future once again. Oh, and put the fountain back!

We need to maximize possibilities at this park, as much as I love it

@HDK_723 Agree 100%, nothing I have seen them do recently is anywhere near the same class. It all lacks.. seriously lacks. I see nothing that gives me any confidence that we will not see more of the same.
English
@Savethedmagic Until they have a Board of Directors who understand long term gains will outcast and outprofit the short term, the destruction will continue. Nothing they have built recently will have the staying power of a Haunted Mansion or PotC.

And these idiots bulldozed it. A decision people will point to for years as an example of what not to do. Decades of goodwill, memories, and beauty annihilated. A breathtakingly stupid decision wrapped in corporate arrogance. Something deeply disgusting about what they did.

Some pics bring back timeless memories! You cannot top this beauty! Never to be forgotten.

@ThemeParkDirk You nailed this one right on the head. Nice work!
English
Hmmm... somebody I know predicted that was going to happen. I wonder who it was...

BREAKING: Joe Schott has been named President of Walt Disney World Resort. Schott, a 40-year Disney veteran, most recently served as President of Signature Experiences. Schott began his career as a front-line cast member in Operations at Walt Disney World Resort.

Well now we know who WDW is getting. I can only hope he fixes a very long list of problems that Jeff left him.

NEW: Disney has revealed leadership changes across Experiences with Joe Schott named President of Walt Disney World Resort, Natacha Rafalski appointed President of Disney Signature Experiences, and Christophe Murphy promoted to President of Disneyland Paris. All effective July.

@seafoamsafari That’s awesome! Glad you got to experience it before it was shut down. It was a special place!
English
I've been saying for years that WDW needed more capacity. Tear down and replace is not expansion. It's interesting to me that they are finally admitting it, but what they are currently doing with tear down wont address the need.
WDWMAGIC.COM@wdwmagic
Walt Disney World is at capacity. CFO Hugh Johnston says meaningful attendance growth only comes through expansion - not cramming more guests in. A $60 billion investment cycle is already underway, with new lands coming to Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom.
English
@seafoamsafari Me too... terrible mistake for them to bulldoze it.
English
The Walt Disney Company destroyed that trust years ago 🙄
Boardwalk Times@BoardwalkTimes
Disney CEO Josh D'Amaro on The Walt Disney Company at the Disney Upfront. “The thing is, you cannot acquire a hundred years of trust. You can’t put generations of belonging on a balance sheet. Disney is part of people’s lives in a way few brands have ever been. And in a world of infinite choice and constant distraction, that kind of presence is rare and getting rarer. In a marketplace where everyone is racing to assemble what we already have, Disney is in a category of one.”
English
It's a special kind of legacy to be remembered not for what you built, but for what disappeared on your watch. Bulldozing the Magic Kingdom’s soul to chase another IP expansion will never stop feeling like an unbelievably stupid decision.

NEW: Walt Disney World Resort President Jeff Vahle is stepping down in late July, many fans feel a leadership shake-up is long overdue. Good riddance. After Jeff's decision to pave over the Rivers of America, Josh D'Amaro has nowhere to go but up replacing Jeff Vahle. We won't forget what you approved.
English
@SirBrayden Congratulations Brayden. I share your joy. Tonight I’ll be launching my own Cool KID Summer initiative: one frosty beverage raised in your honor.
English
@aholll69 I wish!!! I don't think it's likely. Once they bulldozed it I think its fate was sealed.
English
Well.. We now know the answer to my question. This is the first bit of real hope that I have for some real change at WDW.
Scott Gustin@ScottGustin
NEW: Jeff Vahle will retire from Disney in late July. Vahle is currently the president of Walt Disney World Resort, a position he has held since May 2020.
English
It's like a collective sigh of relief from the fan base.
Brayden@SirBrayden
Good luck everybody!
English
President just in time to elect destroying the Rivers of America, retiring just in time to not reap any of the consequences of that decision.
Drew Smith@DrewDisneyDude
Walt Disney World President Jeff Vahle has announced his retirement, effective late July. “Today, I shared with our team that after 36 years with Disney, I’ll be retiring this summer. I started my career as an engineer at Magic Kingdom, and I’m wrapping it up with the best job ever, leading Walt Disney World into a period of remarkable growth in partnership with our incredible Cast Members and community. I’ll be here through late July, so I’ll save the reminiscing for later. In the meantime, there’s a lot ahead, from launching Cool KIDS’ Summer to opening Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets and an updated Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. It’s an exciting time at Walt Disney World, and I’m looking forward to being part of it in the months ahead.”
English
There is hope for you yet, Disney fountain!!! You may well get repaired, but you have to wait until Late July!!
English
@VashSky @EpcotEnthusiast Exactly my take on it as well!! And yes @VashSky you are 100% correct he has left nothing but destruction of ROA as a legacy!
English
I can only presume he's leaving now because he didn't get the Chairman job.
Now that he's got zero upward momentum within the company's Experiences division, he walks out leaving Magic Kingdom's Frontierland utterly destroyed in his wake.
