Brian has sworn off future d23 expos because of all the unfair crap they pulled with the passes. Really, I have too, but I'm pretty excitable and could be convinced.
Could always leave the boys behind and do a girls trip. I think @soniam would probably go again. My other friend Emily would as well. And most likely Lori is going again too.
Was this the first year they did that? Do you think there's enough backlash that maybe they won't do it again?Brian has sworn off future d23 expos because of all the unfair crap they pulled with the passes.
I'm a sucker and will most likely go again. Not having been before, the waiting didn't bother me so much. I actually had a good time. Also, I am not big into the signings or any of the stores, except Mickey's of Glendale. I also wasn't too upset to not get into the Studios panel, because I hate previews and spoilers. Plus, it forces me to get out to Disneyland.
I wish I had gone to the gold member lounge after MOG. There was no line then. The line the rest of the weekend was 1-3 hours. I really wanted that darn pressed penny. I could care less about any of the other stuff in the lounge. I don't remember what I ate, but I remember everything I got from the food trucks was good.

This was the first time they did it. I have no idea if they'll do it again or not. I did write a scathing email to the President of D23, which he rudely never acknowledged.
I loved that Epcot poster too. I ended up getting a t-shirt with the design. I have gotten a lot of compliments on it from people that don't even go or know what Epcot is.
I guess they did it sort of in response to people complaining about waiting for hours and overnight. Little did they realize that their implementation would cause some to not wait at all and others to wait massively longer. I don't mind the idea; I just think they need to ration out all of the passes to prevent the first few from getting all of the spoils.
Wow, so rude.I did write a scathing email to the President of D23, which he rudely never acknowledged.
Oh my goodness how did I not know about this?? I'm so pumped now!! I just finished watching Agent Carter and I was so bummed that it ended so abruptly. But I read somewhere that it was actually a super expensive show to film because it was a period piece and they had to shoot in LA. That makes a lot of sense, even if I am still bitter.The whole crowd went crazy when Agent Carter (Haley Atwell) came out. I can't wait for her new show, it's animated but it's basically a what if Agent Carter got Cap's powers instead.
Okay that's adorable.Yvette told us all the dogs in the movie were rescues and she'd taken one of Lady's doubles home after filming.
FOR REAL!My new hero:
Two things:The Tron cast member costumes and ride vehicle.
Wow, so rude.

FOR REAL!
Two things:
1. I would actually wear that jacket
2. Why is the female mannequin making such a weird pose?
Okay so the panel/pass situation totally sucked but the stuff on the floor looks sooo cool to be able to see firsthand!
Whew - bringing back memories - I'm terribly behind on my TR too! I was down in that basement for quite a while myself!
I did enjoy the Expo, but it feels somewhat like a "one and done" for me. You would get the occasional seconds of super-awesomeness (Ewan McGregor coming on stage) but I am not sure it was worth all the time we devoted. Can definitely say we will NOT be back in 2021.
I hadn't even thought that the woman at the Simpson's panel thought you guys were military Hopefully, she knew it was cosplay and thought it looked cool. I had a great time at the Simpson's panel. The next one was a bit of a cluster on my part. Live and learn.
