  1. This event should be open to the entire public as opposed to a select few individuals who will no doubt flaunt their superior status in the face of the little people. I find it galling that Disney would limit access to an event celebrating such a beloved attraction, to only a small group , many of whom have no true appreciation for The Great Movie, would will watch with glee as it gets eventually bulldozed over.

    • A gold D23 membership is muuuuch less that a ticket (especially if you have a family membership) to WDW. So yeah. Not really an elitist thing. More like being quick enough to sign up for it thing. Especially since the event tickets themselves are free! Usually D23 gold events are about 75 bucks a piece.

    • Much of last week they had similar events open to all guests. People could even walk through the ride.
