Pixar Reveals New Interactive Poster for "The Good Dinosaur"; Disneyland Debuts D-Tech on Demand on D Street; and More

Pixar Reveals New Interactive Poster for "The Good Dinosaur":

Today, Pixar revealed a new interactive poster for their next film, The Good Dinosaur. The film hits theaters this Thanksgiving, November 25, 2015. The tweet sent out to reveal the poster read, "A single moment can change everything."


Disneyland Debuts D-Tech on Demand on D Street:

Today, much like the location in Disney World, Disneyland debuted its own D-Tech on Demand at D Street in the Downtown Disney District. Here guests will be able to create their own personalized electronic accessory case. The new location will debut 10 new designs including art designs of the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration and selections from the WonderGround Gallery artists like Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Jerod Maruyama, and many other artists.


The store will offer cases for the following phones: iPhone 4/4S, iPhone 5/5S, iPhone 5c, iPhone 6/6+, Samsung Galaxy SIII, Samsung Galaxy 4, Samsung Galaxy 5, and Samsung Galaxy 6. The whole process from start to finish takes about 10-15 minutes, with some art even allowing guests with enough room to personalize the case with their name.

Kevin-Michael Lezotte, Merchandiser II, had this to say on the opening and the process, "We continue to make updates both in art selection and the process. We've watched our fans interact and listened to what they have to say. Now you'll find an easier, faster, and more user-intuitive process. We're really excited to finally be able to roll this out to our west coast fans who have been waiting so patiently for it's arrival. It's such a great opportunity for our fans to find rare Disney characters and even casual art. What's Next? You'll have to wait and see. But several of the art styles that will debut in the near future, are quite episodic and are out of this world."

Director Brad Bird Gives Scoop on "The Incredibles 2":


Last month, at the D23 EXPO, Pixar revealed at it animation booth that they are finally working on the sequel to "The Incredibles." No release date has been announced but, Collider got the scoop from director Brad Bird on the upcoming sequel. He began writing the script earlier this year and had this to say about where he's at: "I have the story arc. I'm probably three-quarters through the script, first pass through the script, but we're already boarding parts of it. I've got a lot of people that worked on the first one working on it, so we're all having a good time with it."

He then added this on what fans can expect from the sequel. He had no plot details but added that there are a lot more superhero films now that there were when "The Incredibles" was released in 2004. He said: "But what's changed is there were only two other superhero franchises at the time Incredibles came out. One of them was X-Men and the other was Spider-Man, and now there are 400 billion of them and there's a new superhero movie every two weeks. What you don't want to do is trot over the same turf in the same way everyone else is. So we're trying to keep it focused in the area that our film was, which was a little bit more about characters and relationships and stuff like that, and see where that takes us. But we're having a good time."

Although it wasn't much, I am very excited about the sequel to "The Incredibles." This is one sequel I am hoping I won't be disappointed with. Are you as excited about "The Incredibles 2"?
