Smoke and mirrors that is. Too bad Harry Houdini isn't here to demystify the lot.
"We have an all new idea", except if you own the damned "moratorium" movies that we repackage, then resell, then remake, repackage, resell, then put on hold, then repackage, "remaster", resell, then put on moratorium. Do you see a pattern?
What can we put in this hand that you, then don't worry so much what's in the other hand.
Moreover, Disneyworld, hosting Epcot and others has taken a hit by the La Nina storms, which will hit again this year. If you think $1500 for a 4 day vacation for four is high now ... wait 4 months.
My father plays poker 25 weeks of the year. Friends of his have condos and place in FL, and announced that two situations are common now:
.... hurricane insurance is 3 or 4 times the cost now -- without exception
.... hurricane insurance in other areas is unavailable
level & inclined plane fastener ... oh, yes ... the screw
FL: insurance verboten
Lousiana: land developers with gobs of money and no scruples welcome
* more on that later
I used to work for a video store and remember the blantant lies that Touchtone and more often Disney would tout with their movies --- preservation of blah, blah, blah ... money, money, money ... newly cleaned, with new voices because the original soundtrack was altered -- doubt me, check out "Peter Pan", which now has a new Captain Hook voice. Here, I write of the original, not the Return to Neverland movie.
I would like to think that Microsoft started that, but J. P. Morgan did and others, like Disney, followed.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.
