Disney Glitteratti Turn Out for Little Mermaid at El Cap - Page 2

Wish I could have gone, San Diego sucks.

I wish they would do these things a few months before the DVD release, so they can tape it and actually include it on the DVD. Maybe in ten more years, there'll be an ultra-platinum edition with the panel as an extra feature...

Super OC jealousy on my end, but I'm glad y'all had fun.

Hey! You live by Disneyland. I live by the El Cap. I don't think that's at all comparable! (Except maybe on nights like last night.)

Thanks for the reports. When I saw the panel attendees, I knew it was going to be cool, coupled with having seen other panel discussions. I wish it had been timed differently so we could have made it, but glad y'all had fun.

Now, to ask my loves-Little-Mermaid friend if she wants to know what she missed since she and I were at the same concert last night...

I love talking in vaguelish.

iSm, are you sure it is an academy qualifying run? I thought it had to run for at least a week in both LA and New York to qualify? I asked the woman who introduced the program last night about Little Matchstick Girl and she said it was being shown last night only and not for the whole 10-day run of The Little Mermaid.

But maybe the rules are different for animated shorts (or I'm just misremembering them).

Yes, the panel discussion would be a great addition to the DVD.

I am so sad I missed it. The Little Mermaid is my favorite. There was no way I would have stayed awake since yesterday was my first day with the kiddies and had been less than 36 hours after returning from South America.

IsM really hit it right on. An amazing night.

Surely one of my all time fav's looked great (except for the "edit") and sounded wonderful. Seeing it with a crowd that overwhelmingly appreciated the experiance made it all a complete package. THE best screening I've ever been too.

I wanna go again!!!

Alex, no I'm not positive about that fact .... I got it from a certain wellish-known internet 'journalist,' but I didn't see it mentioned in their piece about the event (though, it's obviously sort of off topic).
