No. Can you please stop with these "OMG this random news event happened. Does that mean everything will get delayed?" Because nine times out of nine, nothing will happen. This bit of yours has gotten very old.

So...have you seen it? I'm watching the Cars show right now. I'm on the episode that's parodying Mad Max.

It's official y'all

I mean it's mainly just Shining and Haunted Mansion parody jokes, but it's still cute. Owen Wilson's also getting paid, so that's nice.

Just got to that episode. I cannot believe this was a real thing that was made.

I really hope this leads to those Armageddon/The Rock Criterions back in print again. It would be very funny to see those return lol

HOLY SHIT WHAT THE HELL

Okay. You're still getting them tomorrow and Saturday. You can wait, it's fine lol.

We were expecting announcements today? I mean okay, but like...you guys know Disney+ announcements are all happening over the next two days, right?

I'm stupid and terminally tired today, so I thought that was blocking the account, not "notify when they Tweet". Today's already been a long day both in the news and at work lmao

You are not dissing Liza Outlives in my house, okay?

This is a long shot, but I can see a surprise 100M gross for this in an "everything goes right" situation. Spielberg's the biggest name to come from this "directors making movies about their childhood" trend and I think "how the Jaws/E.T. guy got his start" is a compelling hook for casual audiences and rake in nostalgia money. Of course I'm not predicting that right now, and will likely depend on a Best Picture win, but I think there's more potential than we might think.

I can give context. Two theaters are doing the IMAX Early Access for DWD so far, and they seem fine enough. One has sold 34% of tickets in the auditorium, the other 72%. Early to tell of course, but not bad for a "premium fan event". It would also be LOL-tastic if this inexplicably becomes a hit off of tabloid gossip alone (haven't had that happen in a while), so I'm rooting for it!

Oh yeah, here's the schedule link: https://d23expo.com/schedule And here's the link for the livestreams: https://d23expo.com/live

We’re back y’all. It’s been three years since the last D23 Expo and a lot has changed. Disney is now the king of streaming, a new CEO has destroyed the company, and everybody’s fighting over whether Marvel should have just ended with Endgame or not. A stark contrast to D23 in 2019, when everybody and everything was on an epic high and nothing could go wrong. Regardless on how the times change, D23 has finally returned, serving as an exciting kick-off to next year’s epic 100th anniversary bash, and as a fun-filled safe haven where Disney Adults can’t be judged by the normies. Of course how Disney will celebrate their 100th birthday is nothing compared to how BOT is going to do it (wink wink). The day before the expo is the return of Disney+ Day. Not only is Robert Zemeckis’ Pinocchio making its debut, certain to give a whole new generation some nightmare fuel, but we should get plenty of other fun and exciting announcements all tying into the service. And then on Friday, things get crazy. Everything begins with the Disney Legends Ceremony, with CEO Bob Chapek conspicuously absent for...all the obvious reasons. We're also getting a new panel all about Disney and Marvel video games set to come in the next few years. Then of course we get into the Walt Disney Studios panel, where we get news on both theatrical and Disney+ titles from Disney Live-Action, Disney Animation, and Pixar. A Little Mermaid trailer is a given, but what new movies will be announced? What are WDAS' and Pixar's new and exciting plans? Will Strange World and Elemental finally get confirmed as Disney+ originals? How are all those new TV shows haping up? So many questions rattling around our head will get an answer. Then of course Saturday is the big guns, with Marvel, Lucasfilm. ,and 20th Century talking about their shows and movies. Marvel already had an epic Comic-Con, but it’s certain D23 will have even more surprises. Plus Lucasfilm has Indiana Jones, 300 Star Wars shows to push, and hopefully an announcement on the next Star Wars movie that will never actually come out. And of course, James Cameron's giving us even more details about Avatar: The Way of Water. The sequel we never thought would happen is finally happening, and Disney Adults and Cameronites alike, two groups you would never think would mix, are on the edge of their seats in anticipation. This soon leads into the Disney Branded Television panel, which will showcase all the exciting shows coming to Disney+, Disney Channel, and Disney Junior that aren’t a Marvel/Star Wars thing. Not as exciting, but still containing the likes of National Treasure, The Santa Clauses, and much more. Sunday will be the day of the theme parks, as per usual, with interesting details hitting Disneyland and Disney World. And those are just the big ones, with many smaller panels and concerts and events happening all throughout the weekend. And if you have time to go to the multiplex, Disney has two modest, but still interesting releases premiering. This includes the 20th Century horror Barbarian, which is getting stellar reviews, and the international distribution of the epic Bollywood feature Brahmastra Part One: Shiva. For all you Disney Adults out there, I hope you have the time of your lives. As per usual, be nice, be clean, and be respectful. Any funny business, you're getting consequences. But again, just try to have fun, so we can all have a great time. See ya real soon!
