Comicon. Glorious.
Jul. 19th, 2005 10:26 pmPanels from a funnybook:
* Stan "The Man!" Lee probably wears a rug, and he's undoubtedly told the story of the Fantastic 4's creation 10,000 times. I heard multiple accounts all weekend and they all used the same words in the same order.
* Ben Browder groping Beau Bridges' ass.
* Justice League Unlimited. Palm trees-ocean-mountains-pyramids-WHAM!
* That woman was actually brave enough to wear the Princess Leia slave costume, and she has the body for it.
* Ye gadz, the place is huge! And there's got to be 10,000 geeks there at any given moment. And there's got to be at least 400 pieces of merchandise for every attendee.
* Fan: "Could you please take off the hat?" Christopher Judge: "Man, why is everybody obsessed with my hair?"
* I want each and every one of the 40-foot tall booth walls from the DC comics booth. Why, oh why can't Marvel have a presence here?
* Joss Whedon is my master now.
* Best presentation: The meaning of the supervillain in modern mythology. Villains are heroes, and heroes are villains. We are all Two-Face.
* Nathan Fillion suckin' it up from 6000 screaming, adoring fanboys and fangrrls.
I'd definitely like to go again. Next time Thursday and more of Sunday, since we missed many interesting panels and presentations. I spent a lot of money and was happy to do so. My office at work is now plastered in comic book posters, and I am happy.
