So, back at Comic-Con again. I got really excited when we got here yesterday. The weather has been nice and cool here in San Diego. Lots of cool costumes. Richard Hatch from BSG was in line in front of me at Starbucks this morning. Later I waited in line for about two hours (thanks Twilight fans) to get into Hall H, the largest room at con. Saw Terry Gilliam for the panel for his upcoming film
The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus which looks lovely and strange, as a Terry Gilliam movie should. That panel was followed by a brief panel for Pandorum, which looks like Resident Evil In Space, which is probably sufficient to get my ass in a theater. Finally, we saw the panel for Kick-Ass, Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, Stardust)'s new film. That movie looks incredibly cool. It's a really messed up movie about kids who decide for various reasons to become crime fighting superheroes. It features, among other things, McLovin and Nicolas Cage's character shooting his 9 year old daughter in the chest repeatedly to teach her how to take a shot.
After the main con today, Noelle and I walked along with the living dead in a zombie walk through San Diego's beautiful gaslamp district.
