‘Onward’ Previewed At The D23 Expo: A Comedic Fantasy Adventure That Will Probably Make You Cry

Given that Onward is less than seven months away, there is a lot that we didn’t know about the film, other than it taking place in a world where magic had become less popular, while technology took over. Today at the D23 Expo, though, the film’s cast and crew blew the curtain away and unveiled a significant amount of information! We saw a lot of things to love – the heart and humor that are so central to Pixar films were on display! [Read more…]

‘Soul’ Will Tackle The Most Difficult Metaphysical Question, Stars Pixar’s First Black Lead

Right before the release of Toy Story 4 a few months back, Pixar surprised us with the announcement of one of their 2020 films. It would be Soul, directed by Pete Docter, who last directed the magnificent Inside Out. There are high expectations for Soul because of how good Docter’s last films have been, which also includes Up. Today, at the D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center, Docter and company shared a bevy of details about the upcoming film! [Read more…]

Disney has never been bigger. On top of that, the company is expected to grow its reach, as its streaming platform, Disney+, will make its debut later this year.

The D23 Expo is Disney’s biennial convention, where it celebrates its past and previews its future projects. 2019 promises to be the biggest D23 Expo yet. [Read more…]

‘Inside Out’ Footage Wows CinemaCon Crowd

‘Inside Out’ Footage Wows CinemaCon Crowd

Fans have been anxiously anticipating Pixar’s next film, Inside Out, which is due in theaters next summer. It was handed the baton to represent the studio’s next film after Pixar decided to delay The Good Dinosaur, which had been scheduled to debut this May. This places extra pressure on Inside Out, but there is no better person up to beating high expectations than Pete Docter (Up, Monsters, Inc.). A screenings of a scene from the film played incredibly well at last summer’s D23 Expo, and now we hear that it received raves from the CinemaCon audience on Wednesday!

D23 Expo: Review – ‘Monsters University’ Short ‘Party Central’

You just never know what you’ll see at Disney’s D23 Expo. The gathering has become known for its early peeks and surprise screenings of the latest and greatest Disney has to offer. This year was no exception. Before unveiling early glimpses of next year’s The Good Dinosaur and 2015’s Inside Out, John Lasseter had a special surprise for attendees of the Art and Imagination: Animation at The Walt Disney Studios arena presentation. Expo-goers were treated to a full screening of the new Pixar short Party Central. Mike’s New Car (2002), a short attached to the Monsters, Inc. DVD, was the first extension of a Pixar feature film. Party Central continues that tradition almost 11 years later, as this latest toon takes place in the world of Monsters University. Check out my review after the break!

D23 Expo: Pixar’s Connection To Brad Bird’s ‘Tomorrowland’

D23 Expo: Pixar’s Connection To Brad Bird’s ‘Tomorrowland’

Director Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratatouille) was on hand at the D23 Expo this past weekend as part of the Let The Adventures Begin: Live Action At The Walt Disney Studios presentation. Bird, along with co-writer Damon Lindelof (Lost), presented artifacts in their continued myth building for the 2014 Disney live-action film, Tomorrowland. The mysterious “1952” box, which has been utilized for the last several months to tease the film, was brought out on stage and explored in front of the audience. A few enigmatic items from the Disney studios past were unveiled, a doctored picture of Walt Disney with Amelia Earhart was shown and a vintage copy of Amazing Stories was used as a key for some cryptic message decoding. But by far the most interesting and entertaining portion of the presentation – and the bit that had me most intrigued about the project – was a clip of animation that has ties to Pixar.

D23 Expo: ‘Finding Dory’ Story Detailed, Diane Keaton, Eugene Levy, and Ty Burrell Join Cast

Finding Nemo was never one of the films that fans assumed would see a sequel (cue chants for The Incredibles 2). That is a point that Andrew Stanton and Produer Lindsey Collins underlined today at the D23 Expo, stating that he is usually averse to the thought of sequels. However, he also stated that if a good idea came along, he would be willing to entertain it. That happened two years ago for Finding Dory, the sequel to Nemo, as Stanton was able to develop an intriguing storyline. Learn what he cooked up after the break!

Exclusive: Limited Edition Disney∙Pixar Products To Debut At D23 Expo

The D23 Expo runs from Friday through Sunday, celebrating the worlds of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm. As a result, there will be a host of exclusives offered at booths throughout the show floor and at the Dream Store and Disney Store. The exclusives often create an air of excitement due to their unavailability outside of the show. Their limited nature also means attendees have to make their way to their respective locations in order to ensure they do not sell out. We are excited to reveal a brand new line of Disney∙Pixar products that will make their debut at the show’s Disney Store. Find details and images after the break!
