Nice!

I'm going to the WDW event, too. I'm so excited.

And still breathlessly awaiting the announcement of the next Expo. At least the newest magazine issue said that would be "soon!"

I think "The Princess and the Frog" is going to get shut out of winning best song purely because of the double nomination. Seriously, having more than one song nominated from the same movie is usually a sure-fire way to lose. Really? I know that Dreamgirls and Enchanted each lost out in t...

Ooh, which picture are you in, goofystitch? That's awesome!

Can't wait for the next magazine issue. Just that cover looks like it'll keep me entertained for a while!

(It'd be nice to get that on time since I've STILL never received my membership card... my one D23 gripe!)

Disney twenty-three is such a great magazine, and I feel like each issue has been getting better and better!

What's the source of that Casting Call? That was a fascinating read! The dynamic described between Rapunzel and Mother Gothel reminds me a LOT of the take on this fairy tale in the musical Into the Woods. I love that idea a lot! Though I suppose I'd hope for a happier ending from Disney. I haven't b...

I've watched it both nights so far (it's one of my favorite films, so I wanted to watch it on TV... largely to see how bad the editing would be.... and they're showing special sneak peeks for other upcoming movies during the commercials, which has effectively made me endure the editing again :P) and...

Clearly! How else could you describe a film where a fully clothed woman touches a man's partially exposed chest? And less than 24 hours after she'd straddled him wearing only a towel! How can we expose children to such filth?!

I admit I have been listening to the soundtrack a *lot* since it was released. I'd heard 5 of the songs at the Expo and had been aching to hear them again since that event ended. And I was getting my fix by going to Magic Kingdom's version of Tiana's Showboat Jubilee since that show opened, but I ca...

At the D23 Expo, the first 30 minutes of the film was shown and I heard from someone that the 30 minute segment ended right when she became a frog. If this is wrong, feel free to correct me, but having seen the entire movie already, this seems about right. You're correct! The segment at the Expo en...

I would have loved to have seen more in-depth interviews with Idina Menzel and Amy Adams. Too bad they didn't have the necessary clearance to include the Academy Award performances of Amy Adams singing "Happy Working Song" and Kristin Chenoweth's "That's How You Know". Don't for...

I enjoyed the list... didn't necessarily agree with every movie's place, but I don't think I'd ever be able to make my own list, and they explain how they factored theirs, which I appreciated. Whether or not I agree, I think seeing countdowns like this can be pretty enjoyable, and this just gave me ...

I was. It was so cool! I was impressed with how much depth they were able to add without making it look like a pop-up book, which is how I'm used to seeing hand drawn animation in 3D.
