“The largest Disney fan event in the world” will take place from September 9 to 11 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California – just minutes from Disneyland Resort. The most recent D23 expo was held in 2019, so fans are clamoring for updates on Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars.
Kortney equates D23 announcements to pinning a recipe or DIY project on Pinterest:
“You guys remember back in the day when we would all Pin recipes to this and say, ‘We’re going to make that for dinner next week,’ and it’s been eight years, and we still haven’t made it? Or we’ve seen something really cool; we went to the dollar store, bought all the supplies, and then we made half of it, threw it in the craft closet because we got tired? Now correlate that to the Mary Poppins house and the Tron rollercoaster.”
“Just keep in the back of your head that you are watching Disney’s manifestation board at this point. This is all the cool things they think they want to do, but they might not have enough money for it,” Kortney explains. “Basically, all you’re doing is watching them pin things to their board with a bunch of fanfare.”
