was johnny not aware he was being inducted? his speech is... a bit of mumbles.

Agreed! If only the refurbishing incorporated some of these elements!

Pirates would need to be down a year at least to include Shanghai elements.

Johnny is always like that he is very mellow and different not your typically celebrity.

Yeah. Pixar can make you feel emotional very easily, and that's something I really appreciate about their films. But when reading the description of this particular film, I just felt that they just tried too hard to find lots of emotional situations to throw around and hope they can make the audience connect with them and feel emotional themselves. As I say, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but does every Pixar film really have to make you cry? I hope my opinion on this film changes once we get some more footage.

Absolutely. And honestly (as one of the few people who have the guts to admit this on the internet) that's one reason why I actually liked Cars 2. After having my heart ripped out in Up and Toy Story 3, and not trying to be experimental like WALL-E and Up, I looked to Cars 2 as a break from that. I knew it wasn't going to push boundaries, but all I wanted was a fun lighthearted movie and that's exactly what I got out of Cars 2.

Based on was said in the dis update number 2. The animation Pixar uses in the good dinosaur is something on a whole new level. Craig in the video said the animation didn't even look animated it looked real except for the characters.

As cool as the new tools are, I at least want some level where you can tell it isn't reality

Hmmm... Interesting at least

Woah..

Just reading the words "Marty Sklar" and "In Charge", you can tell something serious is going down. I know it's not Marty himself but just hearing him put that on someone is huge

Can't get the tweet to open. What's it say?

 

[skier_pete]

Can't get the tweet to open. What's it say?

It says:

Marty Sklar just said Tom Fitzgerald is now in charge of the "next iteration" of Epcot

In other news, I'm going to be at a golf tournament all day. I am relying on all of you for updates (well, and twitter). Hopefully I'll be home by the time of the parks and resorts presentation. Hoping someone will have a periscope link for that as well, would love to watch along. Coming up on THREE years waiting for a DHS announcement, I think its time - do you hear me Bob??

I don't think he's ever been very eloquent in any of the speeches I've seen, I doubt he prepped at all it's just not his style. I do think it's starting to look like age is finally catching up with him though, it only took 52 years!

Yes, if there are any periscope links it would be much appreciated

I have to say that the thing I regret most about missing D23 is the big 20th Anniversary of A Goofy Movie panel.
From what I have seen, it looked amazingly awesome!

You know you are getting old when the celebrities that you felt you "grew up with" (as in a similar age to yourself) are getting old. I look at Johnny Depp, Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), and Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and realize that I am getting old too Oh well, I guess it's better than the alternative.

Someone give me a ballpark time when we can expect news on Hollywood Studios today? Thanks in advance!

 

[pilferk]

Ignoring potential leaks or talk in other panels....around 3 pm pacific, 6 pm eastern, i think?

The presentation is at 3:00pm PST.

 

[Chunkydumb]

Hope someone periscopes the presentation today.

Really hoping for some DHS news out of this presentation today. It's going to be so disappointing if they still leave us hanging. At this point, everyone knows there's got to be something in the works, since so many parts of the park are closed/closing. Even if it's not too detailed, at least tell us something!

I think it is highly likely DHS news will come out today, because as you said it has been in the works for such a long while. It has also been said this is the biggest D23 yet in terms of scale and news so lets hope!

Fingers crossed. The Epcot mention is gonna be a bit of a curveball if anything is announced today.

What EPCOT news should I be looking forward to? I appear to have missed this.
