D23

What happens when Disney throws a party for itself and everyone is invited? The answer is D23, this weekend’s trade show-slash-Disney party with new teasers, news, and footage from the company’s expanding lineup of Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar properties. We’ve already seen a fe…

We’ve seen more than a few sneak peeks of Marvel’s new animated Spider-Man, but Disney XD saved the best for D23. Not only do we have an August premiere, but a full cast including Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, Doc Ock, and Patton Oswalt as Uncle Ben!

If you’re the Star Wars fan who loves to be teased with lots of hints and clips about the upcoming movies then J.J. Abrams is basically your Darth Vader. Abrams hates to tease people with lots of hints and clips; he prefers to keep as much of his movies hidden from view for as long as humanly…
