Reject Interrupted

I’m not actually going to Comic-Con, myself. I’ve got other responsibilities here in Austin to which I must attend next week.

That said, I’m looking forward to the coverage that Cole Abaius, Robert Fure and Jack Giroux will be providing. Can’t wait to hear what comes out of the Marvel panel. I would expect to hear footage reactions from Captain America and Thor, two projects that feel as if they are really hanging in the balance right now. I’m jealous that Con attendees will get to see footage from both RED and Drive Angry, Summit Entertainment’s two films. I visited both sets and they sound like they’re both going to be a blast.

Everything Tron is hot right now, and I’ve got a feeling that Joseph Kosinski is once again going to blow people away with the visuals he’s created for that flick. Wish that I could see Scott Pilgrim. In Edgar Wright, I do trust.

Green Lantern footage makes me giddy. I feel like one of the few people who actually likes the look of his suit (except for the face-paint mask). Lantern’s one of my favorite DC heroes.

Beyond that, I love the surprises that come out of Comic-Con. I’m wondering what trailer will do what Tron Legacy did two years ago. What film will be everywhere like District 9 in 2008, only to come back two years later and be a smash hit. And I love the people. Walking the Comic-Con floor is a special experience, if you can get over the fact that people are everywhere. There is so much to see on the show floor that I wish I could go just to walk around.

Oh, and there are a few parties that I will miss. The next day headache, I could do without, but the parties and the blogger mafia gossip parade are always worth the late nights.

Ask me anything
