CC2010: Futurama Panel

Futurama made an amazing appearance to ballroom 20 on Saturday to a very packed audience. The show has just picked up 26 new half hour episodes on Comedy Central. Fry, Leela and the gang are ready to conquer the future on Thursday 10/9c.
 

CC2010: Costume Commentary

Here's one of the most dysfunctional groups we saw at ComicCon Saturday. You can just hear the costume conversation:

"Hey, let's all go as the new Alice in Wonderland!"
"COOL!! Nobody else will think of that!"
"I want to be the White Queen!"
"Ok fine, I'll be the Red Queen – I get the best makeup!"
"I want to be Alice!"
"I want to be the Mad Hatter!"
"But I wanted to be Johnny Depp!"
"No! I called it first!"
"But my hat is bigger thank yours!"
"Fine. Forget this shit – I'll be Sweeney Todd!"

But the drama didn't end there … Overheard the Mad Hatter say "Cheshire? Where are youuuu? Get over here and stop tarting it up with that other Alice!"

CC2010: Braaaaaaaiiiiiinnnnnnsssss

After a grueling day of battling the hordes at ComicCon, we were ready for a nice relaxing meal. We slowly made our way over to the Blue Point on 5th to meet up with some out of town friends NOT in town for ComicCon.

We settled into our fantastic outside table and were enjoying our martinis and mojitos when I heard my friend from Denver gasp and exclaim "What the hell is that?!"

I looked up to see the 4th Annual San Diego Zombie Walk ambling by in all their gory, bloody, gutsy glory; immediately regretting my recently ordered medium rare steak.

Over the course of our meal no less than a thousand zombies hungrily passed by not only groaning for our brains but a few even reached out for my man's perfect dirty, wet martini. My kinda zombie!

DVD Review: G.I. Joe: The Movie



"Do as you're told like an obedient lackey!"


After the opening credits to G.I. Joe: The Movie, with possibly the most obnoxious earworm of a theme song ever playing in the background, we see a masked woman appear from the water and basically kick ass all the way through Serpentor’s army until she’s face-to-face with the serpent master himself.  Who is this woman and what does she want from Cobra?

Jeph Loeb Named Head of Marvel Television

    Jeph Loeb has officially been named the Head of Marvel Television. Marvel Studios proved themselves in the theaters with the release of their first project independent of other film studios, Iron Man. Now, they're setting their sites on television and hired the best man for the job. No stranger to comics or TV, Jeph Loeb could potentially bring Iron Man-caliber projects to the small screen. He has already proved himself as a producer/writer on both Lost and Heroes (don't worry, he had enough sense to get himself fired after the second season) and has already hinted at live-action Marvel superhero shows in development.

CC2010: CHUCK PANEL (SPOILER ALERT)

The lights dim inside of Ballroom 20 on Saturday morning. The atmosphere inside was charged with anticipation. The crowd went wild as images of Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi) and the rest of the team Chuck filled the giant screen. They…

CC2010: Nathan Fillion’s Surprise Visit

The second day of Comic-Con officially went by without a moment to waste. People were streaming in like crazy, lines going all the way down the trolley station. The Dealer floor was packed with famous people and big Smurfs walking down the hall.  The day didn't get exciting until I accidentally bumped into Nathan Fillion as he was fleeing the Browncoats booth. He was quickly trying to sign everyone's things as he was trying to leave and was trying to make sure everyone who'd bought one of the Serenity comics to benefit the Kids Need to Read organization got theirs signed. I found out later that he had come unannounced and no one knew where he was going or when he was going to be back. It was nice to see an actor from a great television show come down without telling anyone.

CC2010: GOW Ghost of Sparta will kick your ass!


 

At the God of War panel today, Sony and Ready at Dawn Studios showed off some amazing new footage of the upcoming PSP exclusive God of War: Ghost of Sparta.  Taking place in between the events of the first and second game, the team promises more of the classic GOW gameplay we love along with more of Kratos back story.  The team showed off two separate demos of Gameplay footage with the first taking place at the beginning of the game and the second taking place further along in the game.
