I feel like money is always the barrier with The Walt Disney Company. That's why the EPCOT "transformation" was so scaled down—the Mary Poppins ride wasn't built, Spaceship Earth wasn't refurbished, no animatronics on Cosmic Rewind, the Wonders of Life Pavilion is still just sitting there, no festival building, etc.
You have the President of
Disneyland openly admitting that each park (and
DCL) is competing against each other for their share of the $60 billion allocated over 10 years (out of thin air, mind you).
They still owe a ton on their Fox debt, they haven't paid for Hulu yet either and they still owe Comcast billions (they've only made one $8+ billion payment, the bare minimum they owe is like $27 billion).
So, I'd say they have some concerns.
