Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

[Disney Dad 3000]

If they are having cold feet on an announcement, it wouldn't be the first time at D23. Can't wait to see how silly the announcement is though.

To be fair, I believe some insiders have said this happens more than we would think before D23 presentations. Things being decided at the last minute. It’s a dumb way to do things for such a huge company, but what are we gonna do.

 

[TDR2011]

If they reveal it, it'll make sense. If they don't, I'll say what it was going to be.

Odd statement because if they announce it you end up being “right”. If they don’t you can make up whatever you want and be “right” lol

 

[bartholomr4]

Anybody could do that.

"It was going to be a super-duper-hyper coaster themed to Moana. It wasn't announced, but trust me, it was SO going to happen."

He’s playing with you. He knows nothing except how to pull your string.

Media just starting previews now. At DisneyPlus first.

I'm about to eat a peach even though I'm a little allergic. Hope I don't die before the announcement is made

There’s a quote I can make from the movie Face/Off here but... NSFW.

At this point, I just need them to rip it off like a bandage and announce it; I highly doubt anything can meet the sky-high anticipation this has seemingly built, especially something filling an hour-long panel.

Weren’t we also told it would be disappointing, now we’re told they’re apprehensive about announcing something “massive”?

 

[Stripes]

Im curious, how are people finding out?
twitter?
live feed?
friends?

I setup an automation to refresh this page every 5 seconds.

Cold Feet.... this confirms what i was suspecting.... they were/are going to announce that Mickey is FINALLY going to marry Minnie... and the ceremony is Saturday.

 

[GhostHost1000]

If Disney doesn’t come out with something decent for a “secret announcement” well...that would be so disney

 

[AdamNV87]

Tom Holland has just tweeted that's he's very excited to play the new Marvel superhero Man-Spider and thanks Disney for the opportunity.

Any rumors as to who will play the villain OctoDoc?

Yep. It was never scheduled to happen early this afternoon - it was set to be done at the media event tonight.

 

[lazyboy97o]

...except you’ve been telling us about the delays AFTER everyone finds out...

I know what it is and it’s definitely... interesting. I’ll tell you after the announcement and have more details after the panel.

 

[It Is What It Is]

Does anyone know who is giving this announcement? Iger? Chapek? Mayer? Other?

 

[mmssbrg2]

Disney backed themselves into a corner with this one. Unless the announcement is truly enormous, people will mock the whole "secret announcement" hype. There are very few scenarios where this will play out without disappointment and social media heat.

They did it back in May. They hyped a big announcement to be made at the DHS anniversary presentation and it turned out to be a new (mediocre) logo for the park.

this is me having a beer in Brugge Belgium

In Bruges? I hear it's like a fairytale.

 

[HMFan999]

Has anyone guessed Buzzy? I'm gonna guess Buzzy.

I thought they just announce it anyway and then gloss over and cancel it later on
