“I just don’t think it’s a good idea for Disneyland to become a luxury vacation that most Americans can’t access,” said Abigail Disney, the granddaughter of co-founder Roy O. Disney.

that bears her name before. But for the first time, Disney, the granddaughter of co-founder Roy O. Disney, has put her views into the medium the Mouse House was built on: a movie.Disney argues that the Walt Disney Co. has lost its moral compass.

"No one’s reached out to me. I’m a little mystified by it, frankly," said Disney. "I’m happy to talk if that’s what they want to do. I am rooting for them. I love this company. This is a love letter to the company. But when you really, really love something and see it going off the rails, you can’t be silent."

"I know that people think I’m just living out here in abstract land," Disney said. "But the abstractions matter a lot, and the sensibilities must change."Viral video claims to show family sneaking older child into Disney World using baby stroller When Roy E.

Make more theme parks. Expand it to different states.

First of all Disneyland is supposed to be the happiest place on earth! Second of all, the new Ariel movie with the black girl! Not to be racist or anything, but Ariel is white! She is a classic Disney movie, don’t change that! I grew up on that! Don’t mess with the movies anymore

Trust most people can access it. It’s beyond busy. If anything we need less people to access it.

Yeah Disneyland was supposed to be the happiest place and a family place. It was always a little expensive but now it's outrageous. I think most people would want to go to Europe rather then spend the same money just to go for a day to Disneyland.

100% agree with her.

Don't take cheese from the mouse ! Which this all means she'll be pushed out of the picture asap cuz anyone who's ever worked for the company knows the only thing Disney cares about is -- your money! (& Making inappropriate kids flicks)

Then do something. Fix Disneyland and their studios. Their films are terrible now

I keep telling my wife this but she still goes twice a year

You are right it is absolutely not right

Well your (Disney) Corporate greed and is to blame…

…oh where are the days of “E” ticket rides and when Disneyland was truly “magical”…

It already is

I went to LEGOLAND_CA for my sons 2nd birthday. 2k all in with hotel suite, park tickets, food etc. same stay at Disneyland for my 3 year olds birthday is over 6k. 🤦🏼‍♀️

$1800 for A family of 5. Not including parking etc. Smh ridiculous

Remember that scene in Jurassic Park when the lawyer says 'we'll have a coupon day' for people who can't afford to go to the park... That's what Disney reminds me of now.

I know that I sure can't afford to take my two grandsons and one granddaughter! Grateful they are happy with a local park and grandma!

I was checking ticket prices just yesterday. Its a no go for me. Glad I went to Disneyland as a kid in the 70s and Epcot 15 years ago. It's cheaper to go on a luxury cruise which I enjoy more anyway!

Disneyland... America’s Mecca.

that’s nice that she spoke about it but why don’t they do some thing about it. let’s be honest a normal Family cannot afford to go there for even a day let alone a vacation. That company has become a representation of the far left and their woke ideas 🤮

They need to bring in that money to keep the wokeness flowing. The cast members making 15 an hour in Anaheim just need to sacrifice for the greater good.

Don't forget the WOKE narrative being force fed as well. Do you see it. 🙄

Creepy cringe fest.
