Every real Disney/Lucasfilm/Marvel fan wants to see Nelson Peltz come aboard and hold Iger and his DEI Board to face the consequences of destroying all our childhood heroes to push their woke propaganda on the American public.
Your comment are nonsense. Bob Iger is the great mind behind all the success of Disney’s franchises. If wasn’t for Bob Iger there wouldn’t be any Star Wars new content since George Lucas wasn’t interested at all in making. Marvel would still be depending on Banks to fund their movies, Disney gave them the money. If he hasn’t bought Pixar there wouldn’t be any Frozen or Moana. You are SO wrong

Iger even wrote his memoirs that he tricked Lucas under the promise to produce his sequels to have Lucas sell him Lucasfilm. Iger is a shrewd corporate man obsessed so much with his legacy and ideology that he refuses to believe that his movies are just recycled crap without anything original.

I was an Annual Passholder at Disney World from 2014-2020. Took three years off because I had to move away for work. Became a passholder again in the Fall of 2023. What a difference!

@@happymaskedguy1943agreed Peltz did more political damage in DuPont - P&G and Unilever - is he hated - the board doesn’t want him - Iger knew the battle
@@happymaskedguy1943 I’ll try to explain slowly so it sinks in. The issue is not that politics are now there where they weren’t before. The issue is that it’s the focus. I know it’s nuanced and your woke neo Marxist education doesn’t do good with nuance or understanding complex topics but politics has always been in film to some degree but the writers were nuanced with it and did it in a manner that didn’t alienate their viewers. I know this might be crazy for you to but that’s actually what a business is supposed to do… not alienate their customers. Crazy I know. lol 😂
I am in my 70's so I am speaking with old man experience, Peltz you are to old at 81 years and in this interview said a lot of nothing. I live in a town about 20 minutes from WDW that is full of WDW employees and they were happy to see Iger back. The only solution Peltz offered was to throw money at it, I have seen him interviewed before with no real solutions. I was a small stock holder of Disney and remember when it was $17.00 per share and heard all the dooms day predictions. Disney went through Covid, Chapek and was glad to get Iger back only to have Governor Desantis interfere. Mr. Peltz needs to do what us old guys do, retire.
I've got my own hostile takeover of Disney planned and when I take over Disney, I will usher in the Make Disney Great Again era where every single decision is made by once again asking one question: "What would Walt do?" The same one that ran Disney for decades after his death, even if that means being stuck in the 1960s.
Disney ranks up there with Budweiser and Target with no regard for their customers or shareholders. Jim Cramer can't be as stupid as he appears in this video...oh...wait... Hey, Jim, I sold my Disney when the second Disney Star Wars was released, noting its poor quality.
Is Peltz the answer to fix Disney? Not sure but they do need to change things up as they now have no idea how make quality product that sells and the Parks are overpriced and give less value for your vacation dollar which is even more important now with the high cost of living. Add that in to them nickel and diming you for more things like FP and resort perks and you have a company that has no clue about their customer base any longer.
Disney has made alot of mistakes and they are starting to see that. Their whole approach to homosexuality is unrealistic, ignorant and toxic. These kids are more confused than ever. About many things, even how to be good citizens and excellent employees. It's the reason they want to do the Americana theme park in Oklahoma. But they've got to and we all have got some serious spiritual work to do if we are getting this consumer programming nightmare called America back.
Nelson Peltz doesn’t have a good track record when it comes to having board seats. If you do your research on him, you realize it’s not a good idea for him to join the board and Disney knows it. I do agree that Disney does need to shake their board up a bit. I feel like this guy just wants more money than he already has.
@@No-lack098thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one 👍 Plus if he’s so concerned about Disney, how comes he didn’t try to get a board seat when Bob Chapek was ceo? Because the stock went dramatically down throughout his two year term but clearly that didn’t bother him. The reason why he’s doing his is because he wants money and he wants revenge because iger fired Ike perlmutter ( his bff). Unlike chapek, iger knows what he’s doing and his record shows it.
Actuallty what you say sounds good, Disney needs somebody like Peltz willing to make money, by offering products that customers want. Disney doesn't want money as the bombing and cultural irrelevance of their movies across all their divisions show.
@@ReinoldFZ He’s not going to offer anything consumers want. He’s only going to take credit for what Iger is doing. You’ll also see Disney,Hulu and ESPN bundles for $40 a month . He’ll just tell them keep hiking prices till the margins improve. He’ll push to sell off IP and raise park prices as well. He’ll also push to fire a lot of people and push to bring Perlmutter in as CEO. He will only do more harm like the crook he is. It’ll all be exposed soon.
What have you ever made better Peltz? You helped drag Wendy’s down further than what it was. You’ve just sat on the Wendy’s board and collected a check. You claim you changed things , but you just pick situations where you can take credit. I’ll welcome the day Starboard comes after you at Wendy’s once the finish fixing bloomin. What can you bring to Disney? I agree change is needed, but they don’t need you . Stick with the devil you know versus the devil you don’t.
The “WOKE!” crybaby brigade is out on force in the comments. Usually grown men crying about girls in Star Wars and live action Snow White. Because they’re so invested in the cultural integrity of children’s fairy tales 😂
Aww, Disney hired someone to insult people who don't like their awful propaganda. Look at what an excellent little shill you are finding everyone that disagrees with your masters. You serve the Dark lord Larry Fink and his Black Rock firm well. My profile picture is myself, and I don't need to hide behind a fake photo. Every honest person can see through a mask like yours as clear as water. You pushed your Master’s agenda well and even got a highlighted comment. Listen, my little shill, Disney is creatively broke. I love heroines when they don't pretend to be men with vaginas. You must be a dull man who only watches C-span all the time. Nobody better catch you enjoying a Looney Tune cartoon or something fun. Examples of great heroines are Princess Mononoke, Nausicaa Valley of the Wind, or even Tangled or Pixar Brave. All have excellent writing to show an endearing story and a young girl and boy-no pandering to the Blackrock DEI masters. VOTE NELSON PELTZ TO THE DISNEY BOARD!!!
"the employees were smiling, thats probably in large part because they didn't own any Disney stock" xD
Wasn't expecting this one xD
I’m imagining Peltz yelling to Iger in an over the top Mr. McMahon voice - YOU’RE FIRED!
More likely you're imaging yourself on your knees with Peltz unzipping his fly.
I like the way Nelson talks. Just blunt. Hope he can rescue Disney, and make my shares worth something again.
Which part did you like? Was it the part where he was confused about where the parks would open: Chicago vs Las Vegas?
that was a good roast of Disney, employees smiling because they didn't own the stock
Board oversight at Disney is bringing down this company
