ORLANDO, Florida (CNN) - Walt Disney World lost a bit of its magic for visitors who spent Saturday night stranded on the theme park's new Skyliner gondola. Emmie Palmer said she and a friend were stranded about three stories high along with three other woman in a gondola cabin. "Evacuating two people at a time off of the Disney World Skyliner... could be very slow with 10 capacity gondolas," Murray tweeted along with photos of rescuers working. Passengers who were stranded were compensated with free park tickets and gift cards, Palmer and Cole said.

(CNN) - Despite a quarter full of excitement, Disney's revenue for the three months ending in June was lower than Wall Street expected. Disney posted $20.2 billion in sales for the quarter, compared to analysts' projection of $21.4 billion, the company announced after market close Tuesday. Despite missing analyst expectations, sales in the quarter were up 33% from the same period last year, thanks to wins for the company in its studio entertainment and media networks businesses. Those movies and others helped Disney set a record for the highest grossing year for a film studio ever, an achievement announced last week, just seven months into the year. That deal helped beef up Disney's streaming lineup ahead of the planned launch of its streaming service, Disney+, and also gave it a majority ownership stake in Hulu.
