A new restaurant has opened dedicated to our #1 duck!
At the end of last year, it was announced that a new Donald Duck restaurant would be coming to Shanghai Disney Resort. Now, that restaurant is finally open, and we’re taking a first look!
From time to time, Disney rides and amenities must close to undergo maintenance.
Right now, several attractions and experiences are closed in Disney World and some will be for the early part of 2023. Away from Disney World, we’ve heard of two more Disney closures at Disney’s Aulani Resort!
We’ve seen current Disney CEO Bob Iger comment on a number of things — from Park Passes and Florida legal battles to gun control and rumors of a merger with Apple. But now someone else is doing the commenting — and it’s about Iger!
Disney is caught in the middle of a corporate debacle at the moment as Nelson Peltz and the Trian Group are preparing to stage a proxy battle following Peltz’s repeated requests to be added to Disney’s Board of Directors and Disney’s refusal to nominate him. Trian Partners, the activist firm, has about 9.4 million shares of Disney and Disney has urged shareholders to vote AGAINST adding Peltz to the Board. But just what does one celebrity think about all of this and about Iger as CEO? We’ve got the answer!
Bob Chapek’s removal, Bob Iger’s return, an investor lawsuit, and an upcoming proxy battle — the Walt Disney Company has had to face a number of critical issues lately.
From the outside, it can be difficult to know exactly what or when things happened. But now we’re pulling back the curtain and taking a look at just how the sausage got made — or in this case, how some of the biggest events in Disney’s recent corporate battles took place.

Check out a full lineup of all the shows and movies coming to Disney+ in February 2023 here!
One of the most controversial parts of the current Disney World experience could be CHANGING in a big way.
The Park Pass reservation system was introduced after the COVID-19 park closures and has stuck around ever since, gaining lots of praise from various Disney executives but a heavy amount of criticism from Disney fans. Essentially, because of the Park Pass system, a valid ticket is no longer enough to get you into the parks. Instead, if you want to visit a Disney World park on any given day, you’ll need (1) a valid ticket, and (2) a Park Pass reservation for the first park you want to visit. But could the system soon be altered in a way that’ll make guests happier? One Disney executive thinks so.
Bob Iger replaced Bob Chapek as Disney’s CEO back in November 2022, but Chapek didn’t leave the company with empty pockets.
Disney recently filed an SEC report that lays out the details of executives’ and Board members’ salaries. It includes Chapek’s compensation for 2022 and the value of his severance package. [Read more…]

I sat down this morning with Josh D’Amaro, the Chairman of Walt Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products, with some fellow writers and reporters for a Q and A, and he had strong thoughts on the future of the Disney parks.
Colloquially referred to as DPEP by Walt Disney Company insiders, D’Amaro’s silo is an arm of the Walt Disney Company that’s extremely profitable, and actually supplements the budgets for up-and-coming projects like Disney’s streaming services — which have lately seen huge losses to the tune of $1.4 Billion. And DPEP continues to thrive, with profits nearly doubling year over year. [Read more…]
