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!

That's just the Iron Man poster lol (not a dig btw)

Feels so surreal to think about that lol

Pleaaaaaaaase tell me the trailer is dropping tomorrow. I can’t take the wait anymore!

Only one movie in the top 10 has Queen Rey, the most amazing woman in the world and the reason I get up every morning. I rest my case.

Hello. First off, let me tell you that if you find a post you believe is objectionable, hit the Report button and give an explanation as to why. It ensures that at the very least somebody on the staff will look things over and review the potentially bad post. It's a lot harder to do that when you don't give a report. Yes, this also applies to when the forum is "super dead". After all, we all have jobs and personal lives to worry about, so sometimes things slip through the cracks. And sometimes there are posts that seem fine to us, but when we are given context by another user, we realize this is a problem and we have to throw out points. But I will say I found nothing wrong with Legion's post whatsoever and found nothing objectionable. If Legion said anybody who thought 700M was a lock was an idiot, a moron, a dipshit, or heaven forbid the R slur, then we would have given him points no question. As our admin Cap always says, It's not what you say, but how you say it. Those terms are cruel and read as if Legion was deliberately out to condescend and attack other users. "Foolish" can be considered harsh, and if you think that's unfair to say, that's more than fine and you can tell Legion you think that's an unfair statement to make against EC. But that's pretty light. Not even a slap on the wrist, but a flick on the wrist. Nobody gets up in arms when something is called foolish and there's no reason to. Speaking personally, I'm on the spectrum, and I've dealt with derogatory insults all my life. "Foolish" is a drop in the bucket and far worse than anything even said on this forum. And while I can't speak for EmpireCity, though it's not like you can speak for him either, it seems unlikely to me he would be up in arms over being called "foolish". He frequently talks smack about other users for being too sensitive, and loves going after the staff for being thin-skinned and soft. Clearly, he must know what it's like to be thick-skinned, so mild stuff like "foolish" wouldn't matter to him. Or at least I hope so. I hope you understand this perspective, and if you still think it's unfair or hypocritical...well, as I always say, we're not the only place on the Internet where you can talk box office

This movie's never coming out lol

I didn't know until a few minutes ago that there were early access shows tomorrow night, so part of the big boost (32 of those tickets in fact) were accounting for those extra screenings I was unaware of. Still, at least this paints a better picture of what the movie's preview gross could be.

...I need context.
