Scott Gustin (@ScottGustin) recently tweeted that Chapek will no longer be attending the event at all. A Disney spokeswoman stated that Chapek has a conflict on Friday and is unable to make it to Orlando in time.

  1. He does not have the guts to face all the DIEHARD ” Walter Elias (Walt) Disney FANS across the world who wants it back Walt’ way! Not the way DINGBAT Chapek’s and eveyone he appointed who would do his bidding, so all of you be gone!

  2. Ah ! What a shame.

    Bob has brought so much joy to millions.

    So many social engagements, so little time.

    The irony of the lost opportunity to be with the people, saddens most Disney fans.
