Marvel, Disney e Pixar, niente Comic Con, ma.....

INFORMAZIONI FILM
di

Come è ormai noto, Disney e le sue "sussidiarie" Marvel e Pixar non prenderanno parte alla prossima edizione del Comic Con di San Diego prevista per il prossimo 21-24 luglio. Questo, nonostante la presenza de I Vendicatori effettuata per mezzo di alcune iniziative di marketing virale. Eppure, i fan dei cinecomic Marvel, dei film Pixar e delle pellicole Disney possono stare tranquilli perché dei prodotti di queste case nelle prossime settimane si parlerà eccome. La major di Burbank ha deciso di dirottare tutte le proprie attività promozionali legate ai suoi film presso il suo "Comic Con", ovvero la fiera D23 Expo, esclusivamente dedicata al mondo Disney e ai suoi fan che si terrà ad Anaheim, California, dal 19 al 21 agosto. Fra gli eventi più attesi il panel che vedrà riuniti Kevin Feige, boss di Marvel Studios, e John Lasseter di Pixar. E la presenza di Feige lascia quindi presupporre che di The Avengers si parlerà eccome. A seguire, la schedule della fiera, che arriva dritta dritta dalle pagine di Comingsoon.net.
