Here is a link to the site:

I imagine there will be some sort of D23 gift as well...
Not bad if you are in the vicinity of any of these 3 cities!
Yay! Chicago is close! But....I have let my D23 membership lapse. It wasn't necessarily a conscious decision. I knew it was up in May, and I was thinking about whether or not I should renew it, but then I forgot so the decision was made...oops.
Bummer!
Ours is good through August...as long as we're still in the same spot, we will most likely renew. If we were to move elsewhere, we would probably think twice about it.

Any of them that you are particularly wanting to see? I can see the Pirates of the Caribbean day being quite popular!

Yep. One on each day too...Doug Jones (loved him in Hocus Pocus), Bruce Boxleitner (of course) and Greg Ellis (but not for his work in Pirates...his broadway work)
But it will depend on scheduling whether or not we get to see them...we could very well be stuck in a line somewhere for a presentation.

No way to split up and have each of you in different queues?

If they do it the same way as last time, no. When you get in a line for a presentation, you are given a counter card so they know how many to let in. They did not reccommend getting out of the line once you were in it because if they started to let people in and you weren't there, too bad...

Yep, you got it...they started doing that after the first day. There were people waiting in line for over an hour who didn't get in because of line jumpers and lack of communication among those working there.

So they learned and implemented smart new strategies on the fly. Good to know they adapted to changing conditions!

This was a pic from a link NaCler posted in the VM topic thread about a previous D23 Expo that had Richard Sherman singing "Imagination" with Dreamfinder and figment. There's something about this picture that's cool and sad at the same time...

I believe this was from the Destination D: WDW 40th Anniversary event that took place in May.
It looks like Figment has a microphone growing out of his head! But I do agree...it's kinda bittersweet.
