D23, 2974... Disney has announced a new park on Alpha Centari themed around Space Mountain and have finished up their Marvel land on the Moon. Still waiting on the Disneyland PeopleMover announcement...

The fact that d23 didn't land on 2023 is truly a travesty

I hope that Joe Rohde got a lot, A LOT of money from Disney for "returning" to Disney

I believe they will have a very good D23 this year , but it will never meet everybody’s expectations. All I want is for them to actually announce things they are building/going to build , I don’t want anymore blue sky ideas !

Can we just appreciate this man for sec, I don’t know if this is just right now, but this man has been posting faster than usual and giving us quality videos so shout outs to you man, great work, most underrated KZfaqr. Also, can’t wait for the people mover to be announced in August 👍👍👍

Honestly, a refurbishment to Magic Kingdom’s Haunted Mansion to relocate the Hatbox Ghost to the attic would be enough.

Disney has probably spent more money on making concept art than actually building anything at this point

Disney would need to announce a full refurbish of Tomorrowland. The return of the people mover, the relocating of the rocket ride away from the entrance of the land, an escalator entrance to space mountain, removal of all instances of Toy Story IP (which makes zero sense in tomorrow land) and generally a realignment with Tomorrowland’s original purpose and vision.

-Details on the World of Motion Test Track redo -Renovation on Journey into Your Imagination ... where y can FIND DREAMs -What is going to happen with Dinoland -Avengers E-ticket ride construction start date - Disney Forward finds a way to fit in Tron - What replaces Animation Courtyard

This is the part where I get sad about the fact that I'm not going but I'm kinda happy I'm not going

joes return and Ben’s appointment as head of imagineering are great steps in the right direction, as for when we can see these projects come to fruition I do expect it to take a few years then again stuff took Years even during Walt’s day and many projects changed from conception during his day to a lot of people forget that

Kingdom Hearts 4 and whatever Figment project they were teasing is gonna be the bare minimum for me this year

i went to disneyland once as like a 5-year-old kid and haven't actually been back as an adult. the biggest reason is money obviously but the second biggest is because my favorite ride was the peoplemovers! i cried in the tiki room, i cried on the jungle cruise, i cried when we even got close to it's a small world, but after we got off the peoplemovers i asked if we could go on it again AND WE DID AND I LOVED IT AND NOW IT'S GONE!

This year’s D23 is going to be just as disappointing as previous years. Why? Because they don’t stick to what they say. It’s just a bunch of buzz words, hype, and empty promises that lead people along into thinking that Disney is pushing the envelope when all they’re doing is pushing your wallets. *Epic* *Universe* however, has the possibility to stick to Universal’s promises in creating the best theme park that we’ve ever seen. And it’s coming out NEXT YEAR! Right now, Disney fans just need to face that Disney is in a Dark Age right now and that includes the parks. The only way they’re going to do anything is if the fans stop going and stop giving them their money. And if there’s any diehard Disney fans reading this right now, I’m talking to you. Take a step back for two seconds to really look at what Disney is doing to manipulate you and your nostalgic childhood. Then look at the plans for Epic Universe. Be honest with yourself and genuinely look at which park cares more about their fans right now.

Finally gonna be at D23 for the first time! So excited to be overwhelmed and underwhelmed simultaneously… As for the parks panel, just give us the Peoplemover announcement. Please. I realize we’ll probably get everything except that, but fixing what’s not working in the parks feels like it should take precedence over new things right now.

At 12:29 stick figure offhand Disney RETURNED!!!!!!!!!

As long as they bring back the people mover. Epic universe is right around the corner in florida

The California people mover being announced would make it the best D23

Cant wait for inevitable disappointment

I feel like it will never be just a Peoplemover announcement, they will at some point do an entire new Tomorrowland update. If they have no problem shutting down HM and TBA at the same time, there should be no issue basically shutting down all of Tomorrowland and starting from the ground up.

I’ve almost come to peace with Tomorrowland at Disneyland, as long as they don’t mess with my submarines! But please Disney, please give the Imagination Pavillon the reimagining it deserves! It once was so magical and now it’s just dreadful!

All signs point to a couple really chunky announcements, so I'm hoping against hope that we get something especially for Imagination

I’m going to be there for the first time alone, really nervous but excited

What a wonderful way to start a Saturday morning! Thanks Offhand Disney!

If they finally do something with the people mover, I have a feeling it's gonna be the only thing people will talk about

Is any of the stuff that Disney announces this year actually going to come to fruition?

Past history tells us Disney waits until Universal large projects debut before investing billions into the park.

I got tickets too! So cool that your going to be there as well :) I'll be on the lookout!! I hope they have some good pannels this year, I really enjoyed the encanto stuff last time! The Disney voices one was really good too!

Did we just see the return of animated stick figure Dallin? I really really hope D23 knocks it out of the park for this year. I definitely believe we'll get updates for the Avengers Multiverse Attraction, Test Track 3.0, maybe improvements for Galaxy's Edge (mostly in FL), hopefully having a Guardians meet and greet outside of Cosmic Rewind, Spaceship Earth revamp and maybe some Tomorrowland updates. Also coming back to Epcot, I finally saw World Celebration earlier this month and I really enjoyed. The atmosphere felt very real especially at night. I think Disney did go on this and maybe when Communicore Hall opens it'll bring back some life into the main hub of the park.

The Peoplemover song (nation on wheels)I was today years old when I first heard this song

I Wonder If DUFFY AND HIS FRIENDS Are Gonna Make Their Appearance At D23 This Year And I Wish DUFFY AND FRIENDS Could Get Their Own Show On Disney+ After When D23 Expo Announced It Like Couple Years Ago And I Wish I Want To Meet Them In-Person

Would love to just see something more than blue sky. If you’re gonna announce something, it needs to be concrete. Also would love to see them announce fixing figment😂

I don't want anyone to forget about the instagram post of figment walking into the imagineering building.

I love your new hairstyle! It suits you so well :)

I dunno, it makes perfect sense to me that announcements about the Orlando parks would take place at Drstination D23.

Let's start a chant. "Bring back the People Mover"

I hope we hear more updates on the beyond big thunder mountain!! I really hope we get a villains land. There's so much potential! And it's nice to have new blood take over imagineering again. Maybe we'll finally journey into imagination get an update cause it really needs one.

the epcot background music makes my soul smole

Pretty sure your hair will be touching the floor before they announce anything for Tomorrowland

I introduced my friend who has been to the DW a dozen times to The People Mover last year and she loved it!

I think one confirmed theme for DLForward, more info on Avengers E Ticket, and confirmed concept art and/or more details for Beyond Big Thunder would make it a success for me

MOM WAKEUP, OFFHAND DISNEY UPLOADED🙌🏻‼️‼️💯

I would love them to announce a retheme of Imagination. We are seeing a lot of Dream Finder in recent artwork. Is that foreshadowing of things to come? And didn't they release a clip of Figment walking into Imagineering? It all adds up. I remember the original ride and it was amazing!

I think there's an announcement hiding in plain sight. They may have already been working on this, but weren't confident enough to announce it with the retheme of DinoLand. An Emperor's New Groove attraction/portion of the park in the new land. Peruvian llama pen maybe?

The Peoplemover coming back to Disneyland is the hill Dallin will die on lol

(I’m from the future whereDisneyland Forward got approved) Things that NEED to be announced at D23: -a title for the Avengers Multiverse attraction and the announcement of starting construction -The Avatar land expansion based on The Way of Water -new Eastern Gateway -Things I highly doubt will be announced but will be cool to see: -Planet of The Apes added to the park

They need to announce the removal of the reservation system at Disneyland.

This year will be my first D23 Expo ever, I hope I’ll see you there, you are one of my favorite theme park content creators

They will bring D23 here to Brazil in September, around the same time there will also be the brazilian ExpoCannabis in São Paulo. I'm heading there in September to attend to both events and I'd love to return to my city with an annoucement of a Brazil related addition either to Epcot or the new Animal Kingdom south american area

I was going to go for the first time this year, but then they announced the dates and I cannot. 😢 Perhaps in two years.... I'm hoping for any Disneyland Tomorrowland announcement (doubt it, but hey), and a South American Animal Kingdom update. Like real updates.

Personally I would want a confirmation and new concept art for new test track, and maybe possibly maybe a remake of Journey Into Imagination featuring the return of Dreamfinder???? (Please Disney I’m so desperate).

It's criminal how bad their online ticketing for events is. I thankfully was able to get the 3 day pass on day 2 (but not with Honda Center 😭) but between the ticketing ordeal, knowing that folks that ARE going to HC will have to take bags back to hotel/cars first before getting on the shuttles (which I expect to be a sh*tshow) since they can't take 99% off bags into HC... I'm ok watching the live streams on my phone from the parks XD

I have a feeling that one of the biggest announcements is going to be a new “Journey into Imagination “. That’s enough for me… I do wish they would do the people mover at Disneyland for sure or even bring it up

As much as I hate to say it - I think all of the news is directly because of what’s going on with the Proxy Fight - I truly hope they cook up more announcements for D23, but I’m not banking on it unfortunately. They may have ran the well dry in an effort to show how strong the company is, at the cost of announcements this August. :/

I think attributing guardians and Tron to Barbara is not a good thing , they were both established before she took her position . She’s essentially only greenlit tianas at Disney world in the ~3 years she was president

One day, Disney is going to announce SOMETHING about their plans for the skeleton of The PeopleMover. And we’ll be here with you

Peoplemover, Tomorrowland refurb, and figment refurb. All I ask.

For the insane prices and the crazy ticket sales... they better have some good shit

I’m hoping that they have thought out how they are going to get everyone to the Honda Center, feed them, and figure out where they are going to store all their stuff. You know how it takes them a day to train everyone and figure things out. Maybe we will skip the first night. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is it going to be different because Disney actually has to DO something instead of just loosely promising blue sky figments of their imagination?

I want to hear them say they’re lowering ticket prices across the board and bringing back the Magical Express

I'm hoping we get some decent announcements for Disneyland Paris, like the rumored Lion King land. Just a shame that it's the middle of the night for us in Europe, so either staying up late to watch the live stream or watching in the morning 😃

I get the optimism, but I’m wondering if all the announcements in the last few weeks are to blunt the impact of Epic Universe’s slate of announcements. Hoping they don’t empty the bucket now and save some for the summer.

I’m hoping a Peoplemover return is announced soon. If it isn’t, I fear you’ll look like cousin ITT before there’s change in Tomorrowland. Thanks for the video!

I think it will be safe instead of insane, tbh :-)

The problem is, even if they announce something tangible, they won't follow through. Examples: Epcot and Avengers Campus E ticket. Disney will budget cut it until it dies. That being said, I believe there will be one big announcement. The rest will be small and/or existing projects already in the works.

Oh, I don't need to be told to look at the dragon, Mr. Off'and. I've been looking and I can never look away!

Destination D started at the Disneyland Hotel and has been at the Contemporary since 2014.

I was at D23 2022. And my family and I had a horrible experience. We went for the parks panel, couldnt get into and had to watch it in the main room where the expo was. Found out they were streaming it online, and on top of it they didnt announce a single thing noteworthy. It’s sad the announcement of Porto’s being built got the biggest response. PORTOS. We are never going again, we really felt like we wasted our money.

One more land at Epcot World Showcase!

The people mover must come back, i really miss riding that as a kid, getting the overhead view of tomorrowland and riding through the adventures through innerspace then star tours, the magic eye theatre and Tron. I also miss america sings, as that was a dang good show to sit through, i wish they would do something like that again with the rotating building again, Especially since they are swapping out splash mountain, those animatronics would be available again.

All I know is they better not touch my boy Sonny eclipse.

I feel Disney has to really step up with Epic Universe coming soon

All I would want to be announced would be some ideas for updated theming around the new Tiana ride at Disney land and to see what new things they want to add in. Is also love to hear more in depth ideas for the area replacing Dino land

They need to get rid of genie+. I know it won’t happen, but I just had to pay $39 per person per day on my recent trip just so I could ride more rides, due to long lines. It’s insane. Maybe they could bring back some more included benefits for on property guests.

Or… are they dropping announcements ahead of the board votes to drive up share prices to keep shareholder’s happy with the Disney ballot. I hope you’re right about the big announcements.

I hope that they bring back the Peoplemover and redo Journey Into Imagination the way it was.

The only thing that would make D 23 a success would be information on the people move returning to Disneyland. I agree with you that the kinetic energy in tomorrowland has suffered since they got rid of the people move, which I remember riding as a teenager. The entire vibe of tomorrowland Has been taken out simply because they got rid of the people mover and put the Astro orbiter on the ground at the front of the land which makes no sense. Part of the attraction of tomorrowland was going up in the elevator being at the highest point, you can be in the park without riding the skyway and seeing Over all of Tomorrowland! But the people mover wasn’t original idea that should stay with the parts as long as they have been created. The fact that can create brands or both coast open up a new theme park in a foreign land sink millions of dollars into movies that aren’t successful and projects that are just not good and that you can actually rework California adventure from its original concept to what it is now. Yet you can’t fix the people move track that has been in that park Since the 60s is a travesty. D3 will be a series of disappointing pie in the sky rhetoric ideas. The only thing I would make it a success is bring back to peoplemover!

Dallin I feel like your hair is going to be bottom rib-length before any major Tomorrowland announcements are made, and I’m all here for it. You might want to style it up in the meantime though… manbun is a low maintenance way to stall until you can do some cool stuff with shoulder+ length hair.

I kept thinking your light switch was a skip button and kept getting distracted by it

I’m thoroughly excited for this year’s D23. Lots of these announcements will be concrete for once giving rides and lands (please give us a fully villains park) to look forward to. Joe needs to be head of Imagineering and oversee the Dinoland retheme/expansion

8:30 while I would like to think that all these announcements are happening now becuase they have more to come at d23, there’s a chance it’s mostly because of the recent universal epic universe announcements, with Disney trying to keep up with their hype

Hi. Great website. First, think the possible reappearance of the Peoplemover might be a "practical" connection between new parking areas and the expanded parks, as opposed to a Tomorrowland exclusive. I'm sure you've gone over Episode 1 of "We Call It Imagineering" with your usual care. The most exciting/provocative part was not the admittedly impressive AAs but the brief (and blurry) glimpse of the"white model" early in the tour. Not discussed much elsewhere, but it sure looks like a Beyond Big Thunder concept to me. Is that Malificent's Castle in the background? Lots of water features/bridges, potentially connected to Rivers of America. Lots to analyze. This has to be an intentional "teaser." Please devote an episode to this. It's big. Hope it appears at D23, whatever fans think of Radiator Springs as part of the expansion.

I've felt similarly about this year being a bit better than the previous showing. I'm not sure HOW much better it'll be (for some reason I have a feeling 2026 will be the big one for me) but I think we'll see some great announcements, especially with all of the personnel shifts at WDI.

I think there’s a slim chance they announce their rebuttal to the new universal park in Orlando which would make D23 HUGE

I hadn't heard about the TestTrack revamp. That is good news for me. I was underwhelmed with the replacement for World of Motion. I felt like it was a neat concept for a ride that really didn't know what it wanted to be when it grew up... so it became a lame attempt at an E ticket. Never understood the long lines for that one, but that apparently is just me (based on the two hour wait times). Rode it three times total over several visits and now happily walk past the queue with no regret or remorse in my heart. (Gotta get to Norway so we can jump in the line for Maelstrom... wait, what?) Man... I hope you get your People Mover back. I have similar remorse for Snow White and Mr Toad, so next time you ride those in Anaheim, send out a thought, nay, a prayer, for the sad Wolfking family in Florida... sigh.

This was ridiculous. I was going to get the Convention+honda center. But then the throw seat reservation COST EXTRA?! The lowest was over $200. I just got the 3-day tickets. They never mentioned that seats costs extra.

Bring back people Mover would make it s tier

There has to be a journey into imagination announcement this year, right? There has been so many teases it would be crazy if nothing is announced.

It's a great time to visit the parks because everyone is at the convention.

U said this last D23 expo

The best part of the parks panel was the free Porto’s. The pastries were so yummy!!!!

At this point, I’m convinced that Dallin is the only reason that magic candle company still exists.

My hope is for a Tomorrowland revamp at Disneyland, they need it really badly

love if they would extend the Monorail somewhere in WDW. and/or extend the Skyliner..

Hopefully with Haunted Mansion and Tiana's being completed in the near future that will make it more possible for updated Tomorrowland, Peoplemover, and electric/hybrid Autopia. Edit: I was super disappointed by last D23. I wanted news on the Treehouse at least. But the good news is they did a great job with the Treehouse afterall and I'm super happy with the theme they chose. So hopefully there is good news at this D23. Maybe even Tomorrowland and surrounding area news.

i’m so excited cause this is my first year going

18:20 I choked on my burger 😭

I will lose my mind if they announce that Tron is coming to Disneyland

I so want a U.S copy of Monsters Inc ride and go seek to come to DCA!!!! We need a huge update so much
