JACK IS BACK!

A new live concert is coming to the Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles on Friday, October 29, 2021, as they host a live-to-film presentation of The Nightmare Before Christmas! The event is being produced by Disney super-fan Richard Kraft and Laura Engel and the conductor will be John Mauceri.

The concert is very similar to those we’ve seen in the past where an orchestra will play the score of the film while artists will sing along live while the film plays behind them. In case you were wondering, yes, Danny Elfman will reprise his role as Jack Skellington with more artists and special guests to be announced at a later date.

Tickets will go on sale Friday, May 14, 2021 at 10 am PST using this link:

Avengers Campus

As we slowly approach the opening of Avengers campus, we got our first look at the costumes coming to the themed-area. We also talked about a new addition to the floors in front of Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout, an homage to Jack Kirby. 

The “Kirby Krackle” (or the Kirby Dots) was a technique Jack Kirby used in the comics to symbolize cosmic energy, blasts from ray guns, etc. Many artists went to emulate the technique and now we see is coming to Avengers Campus. Check out this post by former Imagineer Morgan Richardson where he describes this and what it means to him:
