Is it gonna be like 2017 where everything gets cancelled?

You mean 2019. 2017 was reasonably carried through apart from the Main Street Theatre. Even technically 2022 seems to be carried through, what little of it that was promised.

12 Amazing Announcements from the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Presentation at D23 Expo - D23

Though the best since 2017 isn't much of a qualifier, since we certainly are expecting it to be better than 19/22. As good as 2017 would be nice.

Most of the stuff that people have found in the leak were either personal info of DCL people (not good, and its bad that it did get leaked) and a lot of stuff related to games (fortnite leakers have found a lot). There is WDI stuff there, but the slack that got leak is related to consumer products and interactive stuff (both games and streaming), WDI has its own separate slack system. I still think not directly sharing leaked stuff is good policy, as otherwise the disney legal team would nuke this site.

Why?

A few very well regarded posters on here had no trouble referring to the Sony “leak” information to support their various arguments. I think it’s morally wrong to do so, but that line was crossed already.

Today is the start of the panel reservation selection process! Here’s hoping that nobody ends up with just the Pixar ball giveaway.

Good luck to everyone who is doing the reservations, last time was a trashfire.

I actually attempted to get the Pixar Ball via reservations last time, I didn't get it, though I did get one on the last day. Not going for it this year as I already have one, may get the pennant, but since its not an anniversary year, its probably going to be the one they handed out at other conventions/internally. Also not a fan that a lot of the interesting ones on the days I am at (character voices, goofy movie, etc) are on or overlap with the big showcases.

I think I ended up with the Pixar ball in 2022 even though that wasn’t one of my selections. 2022 was a mess but we ended up getting into the panels we wanted to attend, even the Hall D23 ones, via the standby queue.

I’m a little mixed on this - instead of the big movie panel, choices are Goofy Movie, Hulu’s book-to-screen adaptations, Walt’s personal art, and the Disney Princess concert. For me the winner would normally be the Disney Princess concert, but I saw it last year. I’ve no major Goofy Movie or Hulu connections, but the personal art might be interesting.

I’d say the second day is much weaker, with two “watch parties”, which I don’t think are great value for your event ticket. My Saturday picks are definitely Magic Journeys, Zootopia, and animation costume design. The good thing is that there are a few Sherman Brothers panels, allowing a bit of choice.

The worst conflict by far, for me, is on Sunday, between Imagineering, the Sherman Brothers musical celebration, and the mystery Disney Entertainment panel, which I can only imagine will be an expansion of some announcement they will make at the Parks panel. My imagination leads me to believe that this one is going to be about designing character costumes or else a breakdown of an upcoming nighttime spectacular, likely WDW’s nighttime parade. Making a gamble on that is tricky!

For me, on Friday I’m sticking to the 2 core panels I want to see and not going to make any selections for anything else.

On Saturday, I only have one core panel so I’m also loading up on other selections. 4 show floor, 1 talent central.

On Sunday, I again only have one core panel so loading up on other selections 3 show floor, 1 talent central.

If you want a specific reservation I sugguest not putting for anything else really on that day besides the thing you want to see. If you don’t get the reservation I already blocked that time off in my head for the standby.

Please also be mindful of the Honda Center and transit time if you are attending the larger presentations.

Anyone know if transfers are still possible? There are still tickets listed on stub hub - I wish Disney had an official resale site.

I don’t really want to take a gamble but I would like to attend and I am available those dates.

I think transfers had to be completed last week.

I suppose you could contact the seller and inform them which panels you would be interested in.

I’m not worried about that - I can just wait in standby. But with nothing in my name / account I’m not flying to California and booking hotels - that’s a total gamble.
