Worldbuilders preshow
Just watched the panel on Disney+ before the premier of Leslie Iwerks new Worldbuilders and i genuinely loved some moments - for sure Iwerks saying she has a signed Rolly Crump Marijuana poster.
It’s a tough balancing act i’m sure, trying to not speak pure gobbledygook to the casual fan and simply reciting ABCs to obsessives, but i feel like it did both and didn’t say a ton. i mean - fine. It’s a panel with 5 white dudes talking about their billion dollar franchises; what really needs to be said? Pete Docter got to pimp his Marc David book (so good) and Kevin Fiege mentioning the Museum of the Weird was fun and the fact that Favreau/Filoni like to ride the Disneyland Railroad together is great, but - for me - it lacked some kind of insight that made me feel like i got a bit of magic.
