2009 Comic-Con Wrapup: My Top 10 Favorite Things
Now that all the hubbub has subsided and I'm nestled back up in San Francisco, I'm processing all the exciting, strange, and just . . .
Chuck and His Friends Rock Out at Comic-Con
The award for rowdiest panel that I saw at Comic-Con went to the cast of Chuck. After teetering on the edge of cancellation, Josh Schwartz and his band of merry geeks/spies couldn't have been jollier about shooting the breeze with fans — and with each other. The panel started with a hilarious performance by Jeffster (watch the video after the jump!), and everyone was on their feet as Vik Sahay and Scott Krinsky took on Queen's "Fat-Bottomed Girls."
2009 Comic-Con: Iron Man 2 Blasts In
One of the most hotly anticipated panels at Comic-Con was the one for Iron Man 2, which included director Jon Favreau, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell — and some footage from the upcoming sequel.
First, however, Favreau rolled out a cheeky fake teaser trailer, complete with cheesy graphics and little to no new footage from the movie. The audience cheered anyway, before RDJ took the stage and — after leading the crowd of six thousand or so Comic-Conners in a round of "Happy Birthday" for Favreau's son — made Favreau roll out the real deal: not a trailer, per se, but plenty of new clips and scenes to sufficiently whet fanboy appetites.
Get Ready to Drink Up More True Blood, Literally
Anna Paquin celebrated her 27th birthday with her fellow True Blood costars at Comic-Con yesterday. The panel started off on an exciting note when Alan Ball announced that the official True Blood drink (it'll be "blood orange" soda) was a go, and the fun continued from there. It was interesting to see the scariness of the show combined with the cast's funny anecdotes about fang malfunctions, and it was even more exciting to see the very real chemistry between Anna and Stephen Moyer.
Lost Takes Comic-Con For the Last Time
The final Comic-Con Lost panel ever was filled with such warmth and humor and mutual appreciation (between fans and executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof) I didn't want it to end. Though there was of course no new footage of the next season, there were plenty of surprises for us fans. Some of these fans were even visited by Cuse and Lindelof last night as they camped out for early entry into this morning's Lost panel.
Comic-Con Day Two Closes At the Dollhouse
I wrapped up another long but amazing day at Comic-Con with the Dollhouse panel. Joss Whedon was a character as always, and both he and Eliza Dushku constantly reiterated how thankful they are to their fans for saving their near-canceled show. We were treated to screening of season one's "lost" episode, "Epitaph One."
2009 Comic-Con: Sherlock, Wild Things, The Box, and More!
Today at Comic-Con, Warner Bros. provided a closer look at some of its most-anticipated upcoming films. In a packed 90 minutes, we got sneak peeks at Where the Wild Things Are, The Book of Eli, The Box, Jonah Hex, and Sherlock Holmes.
Comic-Con: New Moon and Other Fun Day One Highlights
Well, it wasn't easy, but after a loooong wait outside of the Comic-Con convention center in San Diego, I finally scored a spot at the Summit panel, aka the New Moon event! But before that, we got a peek at Astro Boy, a fun new cartoon starring Kristen Bell and Freddie Highmore — who has really grown up since his sweet performance in Finding Neverland. We also watched a clip from Sorority Row, a slasher film about a sorority prank gone wrong.
Live From Comic-Con 2009: Girls Rule
Hello from muggy San Diego! For one of my first activities here at Comic-Con, I attended a panel led by Entertainment Weekly titled "Wonder Women: Female Power Icons in Pop Culture" and featuring Sigourney Weaver, Eliza Dushku, Zoe Saldana and Elizabeth Mitchell in the hot seats.
The lively discussion began with appreciative cheers for each woman and a standing ovation for Sigourney Weaver, which, to be honest, made me feel a little choked up, right off the bat.
Comic-Con, Here I Come!
Tomorrow I'll be making second my annual pilgrimage to San Diego for this year's Comic-Con! I couldn't be more excited to wander the halls again, checking out panels full of the talent behind some new movies and TV shows. I'm just hoping I don't get caught in a stampede of Twilight fans!
