Kristin Chenoweth Sings "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" at Comic-Con

As I mentioned in my writeup of the Pushing Daisies panel at Comic-Con, one of the greatest moments was getting to hear an impromptu song from Kristin Chenoweth upon the request of one very cute, very young fan. I was able to pull the song off my recorder, and so now, you can check Chenoweth's gorgeous rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" for yourself. The audio isn't perfect — I wasn't Read more

A Chat With Spaced's Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright, and Jessica Hynes

Hands down, one of the highlights of my Comic-Con experience was getting to meet Simon Pegg and his Spaced cohorts, despite the brevity of our interaction. I sat down for a quick roundtable interview with Pegg and his costar on Spaced, Jessica Hynes, along with Edgar Wright, Pegg's frequent partner in crime (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) and the director of Spaced. In the British comedy, Pegg and Read more

EW's Television Visionaries Talk Sci-Fi and Pies

Yesterday, I told you about the rowdy panel of filmmaking greats I attended at Comic-Con.

EW's Filmmakers Panel With Smith, Apatow, Snyder and Miller

Entertainment Weekly held a few "Visionaries" panels at Comic-Con that brought together some of the greats in the TV, movies and comic book worlds. At the filmmakers panel, it was mostly a kick to see Kevin Smith, Judd Apatow, Zack Snyder and Frank Miller all at one table. It turned into the Smith-Apatow comedy hour, but that seemed to suit the audience members (myself included) just fine. Check Read more

First Look: Chuck Season Two

It's one thing to hear all about the twists and turns coming up on the second season of Chuck. But it's another thing entirely to get to see them — and that's exactly what happened over the weekend when Josh Schwartz, Zachary Levi, and the rest took the stage at Comic-Con. While there's no official version of the almost 7-minute trailer, E!'s Kristin Dos Santos, who moderated the panel, got Read more

Roberto Orci Interview About Fringe at Comic-Con

A herd of cattle grazing in a parking lot probably isn't the weirdest thing I saw during Comic-Con, but it's not too far off. The dozen or so cows had a purpose, though, serving as a clue along the way during a Fringe-related scavenger hunt in San Diego. If you've seen the Fringe pilot — which several thousand more people now have seen following the San Diego screenings — you'll get the cow Read more

Comic-Con Round-Up

I've been reporting from Comic-Con these past few days, but here's a hodgepodge of random extra bits and pieces from my weekend. There was a panel I basically happened to attend by accident, which ended up being for this spooky-looking movie The Wolf Man, due in theaters April 3, 2009. Then, to everyone's surprise, the stars of the film, Benicio Del Toro and Emily Blunt, came onstage to talk Read more
