Yesterday I had the pleasure of being the last person seated for the animation panel at D23. I count this as a blessing since about 2,000 people who waited hours didn't make it in. Lines are insane and I wish Disney could figure out how to count seats and only allow that many into the queue. Sadly, they haven't figured that out. As a result, despite being in line since before midnight for the 10:30 live action panel, chances are slim that I will get in. I guess that's what happens when you try for the big panels at cons.
Animation was wonderful. Not only did I see John Lassiter. I also saw every living Disney princess voice as all the princesses will appear in Wreck It Ralph 2, where Vanellope finally gets her place among princesses. Fanservice ensues. It will be amazing.
Another favorite highlight of mine was a preview of the Olaf short coming out in November. Josh Gad was on hand to sing a song live and Kristen Bell also made an appearance.
Finally, we got a great sneak peak at Coco. I heard some people say they feel its missing something, but it feels like a solid movie.
Overall, it should be a great day today, too. As I said, I may nor make it into the event I've been waiting for for hours, but if I do, I will have much more to report.
Here are some of my shots from day 1 (including a few in the parks and of the Wings of the City exhibit in front of the convention center from Thursday because why the hell not?):
More photos to come on the Day 2 Update.
