what are the reasons from your own piont of view about the failure of Disney, Tokyo ?
604322
My reasons is that how can Disney be in  Tokoyo? \nWhen Walt Disney builded Disneyland, he just wanted a unique theme park to be built in Anaheim. No matter where we live, we are suppose to go to this unique theme park he built. Whether it is by plane, car or train, we will get there. If someone tried to copy this unique place, it it destined to fail because you are combining Japanese culture with American culture. I don't see why the Japanese who live in Tokyo are not willing to travel to Los Angeles and enjoy the history of Disneyland instead of building a park their own.

There are many reasons for mergers.\n\nThey include\n-Economies of scale\n-Defensive motives\n-Diversification\n-Growth\n-Monopoly\n\nNot all of the time.  Back in the day with all of the LBOs with KKR, etc., they made tons of money on many deals.  These days, one reason that mergers fail is that they overpay and there's a ton of goodwill that's pretty much useless.  Often, the seller doesn't want to sell, so the buyer has to pay a premium to convince the sellers to sell the company.

I dont think Japanese people (who was a major contributer to Titanics box-office tickets) would want to watch a movie without Reoh-narhdo dre capri-oh-san..\nso, no

Disney world is a show, it does not have employees it has cast members.  These cast members are there to make "magic".  Disney is famous, because who doesnt want to go to a place where everyone is happy and where "dreams come true."

The WUSA was cancelled. There was an initial enthusiasm that was short-lived. Without corporate funding, added poor ticket sales, and dwindling media interest, it folded.

Absolutely horrendous.  I thought the mini-series was pretty bad (considering how low budget it was); but it was light-years better than that Disney crap.\n\nShudder.  To think I actually looked forward to the movie.

Big D's comment made me yearn for the skyway at Walt Disney World.  It was a great makeout ride, but you had to either be shameless or anticipate the 110-degree turn from Fantasyland into Tomorrowland, but I don't think I could call it my favorite ride.\n\nSpaceship Earth at Epcot is another great makeout ride, though not as good as it once was.  The first 60-90 seconds used to be COMPLETELY pitch black...perfect for making out.  Now they've got little streaming lights in there to keep it from being pitch black, but I would guess it's still good for making out.  Haven't been able to try it since I was a sophomore in high school, though.\n\n"If You Had Wings" makes me wax nostalgic.  It was a lame ride, but it had two things going for it: a) back in the days when every ride required its own ABCD or E ticket, "If You Had Wings" was a "sponsored" ride, and you could ride it over and over without wasting any tickets.  I often chose to ride that several times while my parents went on the dumb old carousel of progress ("Heh heh...Oh, sport, you're such a funny old dog.")  b) There was this one particular scene in If You Had Wings where a caribbean cop in Bermuda shorts was "directing traffic".  In one direction you'd see a bunch of people crossing the street...in the other, it was geese flocking across to the other side.  Not very funny when I describe it, but something about it would tickle my funnybone every time I rode through.  (This ride is now "Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, which is probably more fun than If You Had Wings, but it doesn't make me wax nostalgic).\n\nI also miss the Kitchen Kabaret at Epcot.  To be sure, the new Soarin' ride is cool (although they could have at least made a soarin' over Florida ride for Florida, instead of importing the movie from Disney's California Adventure), but I miss the broccoli yelling "Cha cha cha!" the finale.\n\nBut hands down, the best ride at Walt Disney World for me is SPAM (what we Disney folks affectionately nicknamed SPAce Mountain).  I came of age on and around that attraction, working it from age 18-20.  I learned a lot about life and a little 'bout love there (yes, I know, it sounds like the Chattahoochie river for you Alan Jackson fans).  The ride itself is amazing.  I often marveled at how folks would stand in line up to two hours sometimes for an experience that barely lasted two and a half minutes.  I was amused at the arguments that broke out about which side was better (the left-hand side is, in fact, about 15 feet longer than the right-hand side, but only in the track area between the unload station and the load station, so the amount of track YOU get to ride on is exactly the same on both sides, and they're mirror images of one another).  I loved identifying "9-14's" when I was working the load position or the dispatch tower.  But really, the relationships I forged with my coworkers and the lessons I learned while working at Space Mountain make it the ride that most defines Walt Disney World for me.  I know that ride like the back of my hand.  Even the sudden steep drop at Safety Brake #6 doesn't bother me because I know exactly where it is and when it's coming.  I know that it's scarrier to ride down with the lights ON.  I know that you should always put the McGugan bar up before you put the trains away.  I'll never see Space Mountain like a typical Disney Guest does again, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Clue us in. What boycott for what reason?\n Not all of us have heard of it.

1.  Natural disaster...for obvious reasons\n2.  Growth and new industry\n3.  Lack of jobs and mass movement of people to better areas.

To sacrifice 100,000+ Japanese lives for possibly millions of Japanese, European and American lives.  The war would have continued if it were not for "the bomb" - and once on mainland Japan, it would have been disastrous.  The Japanese actually did not surrender until after we bombed another city, Nagasaki, several days later.  This is a testament to their will and determination at that time.\n\nThe other important thing to remember is that Germany was also developing a nuclear device and was ahead of us with delivery systems (rockets, missiles, etc.), so it was imperative that we not only develop the bomb(s), but demonstrate that we had them and their effectiveness, as horrible as that sounds.\n\nNuclear weapsons are a terrible thing, cost countries billions of dollars to develop, and if used again, will most likely damage the planet irreparably.

Yes!!!!  The idea of the movie industry making money about such a horrible tragedy is a tragedy all its own.  Also, it is definitely too soon to relive those moments.  I still go into shock when I see anything on the news depicting that horrible day!

Well for the first movie, they had a lot of fan support to raise the money to make it. The movie didn't quite make the money it spent in the movies, so I'm don't think they will make another one. Hopefully they'll recover some more money with dvd and video sales, since it was an awesome picture. We can only hope they do decide to make a sequel.

You have to say which specific country, because it failed in different places for different reasons.

When I was in Japan a couple months ago I noticed that the Japanese in general are quite fascinated with American pop culture.  Disney is also immensely popular over there.  My theory is that people are always attracted to what's different (US kids are into anime and American women swoon over British accents etc).  It's no different there.\n\nIn Harajuku I visited a wonderful store called Snoopytown.  We need one of those in the US!

1. No, because DisneyLand never appeared in Orlando. It appeared in Anaheim, California and not even Walt Disney World appeared in Orlando. It appeared in Lake Buena Vista, Florida (Orlando is right outside.)\n\n2. No, because "with no one creative behind them" is very untrue. Walt Disney and his fellow Imagineers were all very creative.\n\n3. No, because this statement makes no sense.
