Comic-Con Day One: Programming Day (aka Teenage Girls Gone Wild)
July 24, 2008Today was my “programming day” at Comic-Con, and I spent much of the day in Hall H watching previews of umcoming films from Fox, Summit Pictures, and Dark Castle Entertainment and listening to the actors, directors, and writers talk about their various projects. Fascinating and entertaining? Absolutely! Because I want to give each film their due in separate posts, here’s just a taste of what was featured:

That hair is truly unforgivable. Did any of the movies look good? More importantly, did Gerry look good in person? I think I would have fainted.
whoa. reminds me of when we saw the stalker pharmacist dude from desperate housewives and his hair was styled similarly. and he was just at a bar. in seattle.
people: this is what L.A. does to you.
I am so jealous! How much fun is this?
Like Billy, I am awed and jealous. Hope you are having so much fun!
Sco–some of them looked VERY GOOD. More posts to come, but films I will definitely see in the theatre include The Day the Earth Stood Still, Push, Twilight, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Watchmen, The Spirit….wow, the list goes on.
Staci–I know. It really was THAT BAD. Someone needs to get that kid a sylist…fast.
Bill & Kris–yeah, SO FUN! The lines are long, and my feet hurt, but the payoff is definitely worth it. And to think, there’s so much I’m NOT seeing…
