I just put a portion of the sentence that I feel needs to be corrected.

"... many people are skeptical because of the downfall California Adventures has brought for the successful company."

Is 'FOR' supposed to be 'TO,' or leave as is?

&

"... then they will result in great profit."

Is 'IN' supposed to be 'WITH', or leave as is?
Or some other word.

Thanks. :)
If you reply before the 19th, that'd be great.

Oh okay. Thanks Bruce.
Umm, here's the whole sentences:

#1 - (sentence before this relates to Disney's new strategies) ... Though this sounds like a good money-making plan, many people are skeptical because of the downfall California Adventures has brought for the successful company."

# 2 - "I predict that if Disney decides to continue on with thie new idea, then they will result in great profit since they do well in promoting."

Okay. Now what I read those, they sound like rubbish. Feel free to correct any part of both, if you wish.

Thanks for the complete sentences. I think I'm getting the picture . . .

#1 - Though California Adventures sounds like a good money-making plan, many people are skeptical because of the financial loss the scheme has brought Disney thus far."

# 2 - "I predict that if Disney decides to continue on with the new idea, they will eventually rake in great profits because the company has always done well in promoting their theme parks."

Better?

the prepositions are the same weight (i guess you could say). it doesn't matter which you use in either sentence they are both correct.

you could write

California Adventures' downfall has brought skepticism for many people....

great profit will/did/could arise from...
