Robert Iger, president and CEO of The Walt Disney Company, talks with Fortune's Richard Siklos on how the storied company is navigating the transition to digital technology at Fortune Brainstorm: TECH, July 22, 2009
@JamesFlipper77 I agree for the most part, but the classic shorts are cut and redubbed for the attention span of the pre-teen audience. So the task to bring back the FULL classics on tv has not been done yet. However, Disney is overall heading in the right direction, maybe these little steps may lead up to an American Disney Cinemagic or a Second Reinissance.
@lovehamsters14 He is doing that but taking his time. First off , 2D animation is back and second, Hanna Montanwhateverisit is canceled. And the new Winnie the Pooh film. The classic shorts on back on Disney Channel as "Have a Laugh!". But don't worry , first thing first and then take care of the rest (bringing back our classics we loved and known for years).
Great interview. Best quote about effective management: "You have to have one hand in the future and one hand in the present, if you have two in one place then you fail."
