Once upon a time, in THIS galaxy and NOT one that’s far, far away, they sang a song that said this:
If our dreams become a reality, then there’s nothing we can’t achieve! Absolutely, we can! Indeed, we can!” This phrase is uplifting and serves as an encouraging mantra for moving forward, envisioning possibilities, and embracing the future.
Later, a nameless commentator who identified as Oliver offered a word of advice that could potentially be considered for our current situation.
In essence, he expressed this idea: “To pursue your dreams, you must decline every other option.” Reflecting on Walt Disney Imagineering’s current state, I believe that’s the challenge they face with their products and outcomes. It’s acceptable when a corporate culture encourages grand visions followed by budget considerations. However, when it sets a budget first and dictates the limitations for any dreams, effectively telling its creators to dream small within those constraints, then the result may not be as inspiring.
In discussions on our videos and chats, some individuals frequently express the opinion that everything would be fine if Bob Iger were removed from his position. However, it’s important to understand that they might be overlooking the bigger picture.
Through his leadership and determination, a significant cultural transformation has taken place within this once prominent corporation. The corruption of adhering to those “alternatives” has spread extensively, manifesting both creatively and practically.
More recently, there was a plumbing issue in the upper floor restroom of “The Land” pavilion at EPCOT. Despite fixing the initial leak, a couple of weeks later, the ceilings below it in the entrance area for “Soarin'” collapsed, possibly due to structural weakness caused by water damage from the earlier incident.
If there was a leak in your home or business that you knew had seeped into lower areas, wouldn’t it make sense to inspect for damage and fix the issue before allowing family members or anyone else to be beneath that potentially unsafe space? Common sense would dictate this action, right? You don’t need to be an engineer or “imagineer” to understand that. However, it seems surprising when people don’t take such precautions.
This isn’t focused on credentials, skills, or creative thinking. Instead, it revolves around a mindset that prioritizes doing the bare minimum for those who need it, rather than striving for excellence, safety, and quality at any cost.
1. What would be the estimated expense for inspecting and fixing (if required), a particular section of a single building within a large amusement park? Also, consider the potential cost in terms of reputation damage if this area were to collapse due to neglect, reinforcing the perception that the park is increasingly careless every day.
2. What’s the approximate budget for examining and potentially mending (if needed), a specific part of an enormous theme park building? Additionally, think about the financial impact on reputation if this section were to crumble due to negligence, strengthening the notion that the park is more neglectful each day.
3. What’s the ballpark figure for checking and potentially fixing (if required), a certain part of one structure in a big amusement park? Furthermore, consider the financial implications of not addressing issues, leading to a collapse, which could further tarnish the image of carelessness that is growing daily.
4. What’s the estimated price for inspecting and making necessary repairs (if any) on a specific area within a large theme park building? Also, ponder over the financial consequences if this section were to fall apart due to lack of maintenance, reinforcing the idea that the park is increasingly irresponsible every day.
It appears as though those in positions of authority at Imagineering have yet to show much concern about the current situation.
The problem at Imagineering doesn’t seem to be confined to one individual or a select few—it seems to be deeply ingrained in the company culture, characterized by disregard for standards, lack of respect for creative ideas, indifference towards customers, and an overarching sense of self-importance that suggests Disney’s brand name alone is enough to draw in crowds.
The public, as customers, are expressing their disapproval. This sentiment isn’t influenced by the upcoming opening of Epic or articles about cheaper vacations in Bali, nor by the dismissal of Disney corporate culture’s view that diversity is inherently a valuable skill.
In essence, they’ve strayed from their path and forgotten their core values. They seem to take pride in this departure. Unfortunately, it seems this shift isn’t something that can be rectified quickly or easily, not even with changes in leadership or time. The saying “If we can dream it” implies they no longer possess the ability to dream big. However, if limitations on achieving those dreams are a concern, the future looks bleak.
I wish I could offer some optimistic solutions, but I don’t have any at the moment. All I can share is nostalgia for how things used to be, not so long ago, in this very same universe. It wasn’t just within the parks, but in movies, TV shows, and everywhere else. As our generation, and perhaps yours, with memories of greatness begins to fade away, it’s worth asking what will replace us? If the entire world had lost those values, then perhaps the competition would be equal, but that’s not the case here.
In conclusion, I reiterate a crucial piece of advice: “If you want to follow your dreams, you have to say no to all the alternatives.
In my humble opinion as a film enthusiast, acknowledging flaws and embracing change requires letting go of the illusion of infallibility. It means recognizing that there are other paths, even if they may not be ideal ones. To put it simply, it’s about being open to transformation.
Now, let me share a little humor that I believe applies to creative companies in entertainment as well: “How many therapists does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one, but the bulb has to really WANT to change.” Until Disney truly desires change, progress might remain elusive.
