The panel was so amazing, so much fun. A lot of laughs and great insights. My day was almost ruined though when I was almost ousted out of my seat. I had waited in that room since 10am and slowly moved up and was able to get in the front row. Then some people from Disney, or somewhere were suddenly saying they need the whole front row for people. But I said I'd been waiting forever, and eventually let it go. But for a few minutes there I thought I was going to get sent to the back of the room, after waiting for hours. Luckily, I was able stay in front and see Glen Keane. But they woudn't let us take pictures.
Not even of the panelists. But I was just happy to be there.
I was not that familair with the two directors bt they were a riot, and very cute. If their personalities leak are any indication of the humor of the film (which I think it is) then the film will be very funny. I enjoyed the footage we saw. It was nice to hear Mandy Moore's voice in an actual full scene, and what I liked is that she obviously chaned her voice a little. It's her Rapunzel voice, and it varies from the way she normally speaks. They also showed part of a scene where it appears Flynn is forced to sing and he's dancing in a bar. It was very funny. I'm going to do a more detailed blog posting, so I'll post that link for anyone who cares to read it.

How did you get to take pictures? Did you have a press pass like many of the poeple I was sitting around, because it seemed like they were the only ones who were allowed to take photos. And where were you sitting. I was right in front of the table on the rght side of the room. Maybe I saw you
I can imagine Rapunzel saying,"Oh!This looks like a nice place."When she enters the tavern she'll think,"I wanna go home!" 
LOL
