In my opinion, this would be a good time for either Tom or Abigail Disney to join the studio full time. they could be the only ones to keep an eye on Snyder, should he get Jerry's old job.
 
Enter Zack Snyder

    'WATCHMEN' DIRECTOR HANDED KEYS TO MOUSE HOUSE

    Hot off the box office success of 300 [New Line] and Watchmen [Universal], Zack Snyder will now be in the driver's seat at Disney. Riding shotgun with Snyder will be Tim Disney, an independent filmmaker for the last 20 years. Tim is also Walt's great-nephew and son of former studio chief Roy E. Disney.

    Both men will succeed Jerry Bruckheimer as co-chairs starting on June 1st of this year.

    ZACK SNYDER:
    "I'm grateful for the opportunity, I'm happy to be here and I look forward to making many more great films here."

    TIM DISNEY:
    "I am just as excited as Zack is. Creativity has long been the bread and butter of Disney, and I am thankful that Zack and I are on the same page as we prepare to move forward."​

    What's been happening in the world of theme parks since we last discussed them?
    Click to expand...

    Theme park attendance is down 40% across the board since the start of the Great Recession in early 2008.

    Optimum Holdings, which was planning to sell or close underperforming parks, wound up getting a bailout from President McCain just months before Obama took office. But last summer, Michael Jackson was hospitalized and Optimum's proposed improvements to Worlds of Wonder have been put on the back burner while he recovers.

    Warner Parks wound up scrapping the proposed Bakersfield park due to both the Recession and resistance from local residents.

    Haim Saban has been working to strengthen Fox's partnership with the Disney Parks, particularly with new Power Rangers attractions in Tokyo, Rome and maybe Anaheim.

    Speaking of Disney Parks, Riverfront Square in St. Louis is about to reopen after a lengthy expansion and rebuild.

    The future of the TMNT license with Six Flags may be in jeopardy after Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird have sought a buyer for Mirage Studios. Possibly CBS, Henson, Fox, Hemdale or ABC. At the moment, the Turtle attractions at Six Flags parks across the US still use the character designs from the 80s and 90s TV series, as it would have taken too long to change to the more current designs used by the 4Kids series.

    The proposed Paramount Pinnacle slated for Bonn, Germany has been formally scrapped after the proposed site, a former coal quarry, was found to be still too contaminated.

    Will the idea of a German Paramount Pinnacle be revisited or is the idea permanently scrapped? Because I was looking forward to reading about it.

    Hemdale should get Mirage. They might even try bringing some of their own properties to Six Flags. Terminator, Avatar, Thomas, etc.

    May have to be in a rural part of the country if it were to be revisited.
    Click to expand...

    Good idea. It comes with the benefit of giving some rural area a major shot of tourist revenue. Maybe they pick a more rural area of the same province since they already had location scouts in the area.

    Is Germany the kind of country to have year-round theme parks or would this park need to be seasonal or an indoor theme park?
