The Fate Of John Lasseter May Depends On What Happens On Thursday

Disney Animation unit has scheduled a "Day of Listening" tomorrow, Feb. 1, 2018, to discuss, among other things, the issue of John Lasseter and if he will be welcomed back.

The gathering, which Disney veterans say is unprecedented for the Burbank-based animation unit, comes as sources with ties to both Disney Animation and Pixar Animation Studios speculate that John Lasseter, who oversees both companies but has been on leave since November, will not return from what was characterized by Disney as a six-month "sabbatical." At the time, Lasseter, 61, acknowledged "painful" conversations and unspecified "missteps" in a memo to staff.

The loss of Lasseter will definitely be a major blow and a major transition for both Disney Animation and Pixar.

I wonder if they have removed, or will remove, all those bottles of wines from the two Remy restaurants on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy ships.
