Anyone going to Comic-Con this year in SD?
Anyone know if there's any Bond connections there this year?
They had the Aston martin there last year and there was some peripheral support for QoS...
For those who've never been Comic Con is a lot more than just comic book stuff, it's like a Woodstock for action/fantasy/horror/sci-fi film/tv/books and art...

[zencat]

Of course! Not sure which day I'm going yet. Waiting for the schedule.

[mrsbonds_ppk]

Man I wish I could go to this. Maybe in the future. Have fun !

[Righty007]

I'll be there Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Anybody know which Bond actors/actresses will be there signing autographs? I'd really like to know so that I know which DVD covers to bring. I like getting those signed.

EDIT: Trina Parks (Thumper, Diamonds Are Forever) will be in attendance.

You can usually find out quite a bit of info on the web site the week or so before;
If you need more, I will be there on weds and could post late weds night details from the program if that works for you (depending on what time you plan to leave on thursday)

Thanks. I figured they were going to update their site closer to the event.

[zencat]

I'll be there Thursday & Friday (want to catch the Friday WB presentation to see Sherlock Holmes). If anyone knows of any Thursday night parties, let me know.

[jrcjohnny99]

I'll be down there weds and will post a few schedules at some point weds night...
If anyonen wants to meet up one evening; let me know

[Brisco]

I'll be there the whole time, I think. I'm not 100% sure about Preview Night on Wednesday, but should be there the rest of the time at least.

One day I will......always wanted to go.

[jrcjohnny99]

One day I will......always wanted to go.

Make the effort; you wont be dissapointed...
just remember; 4 day passes sell out usually 3 or 4 months in advance (and its getting earlier every year) so plan early!!

I'm married, so it's not that easy.

[killkenny kid]

Have fun guys, say hello to Dan Didio and Grant Morrison...............Go DC Nation.

[Athena007]

I'll be there as always! Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun. I'm just waiting for the official schedule to come out.

Thurs I'll be part of a GI Joe Photoshoot happening on the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier. If anyone wants to try and show up for that I'll have the time later.

[DamnCoffee]

I've always wanted to go there, but alas, I live in England.

[jrcjohnny99]

Seems like we have a few folks in attendance;
maybe we should arrange a meet-up? dinner?

[Brisco]

Well, the schedules are finally up now (except for Sunday), and there's lots of cool stuff. No specific Bond stuff (they don't even do Bond panels in years when there is a new movie for some reason!), but lots of spy stuff in general. I've just posted a full guide to all the spy-related programming at the Double O Section. I hope it's helpful to people here!

As for a meet-up, I'd definitely be up for one if we're able to schedule it around all the programming and networking. That's always the toughest part of Comic-Con meet-ups!

Ryan Reynolds is Green Lantern.

[Athena007]

Yeah I would love to meet up with anyone who wants to. I love meeting people from the forums, it's always interesting. Scheduling is the sticker. Is there anything specific that people are doing who are here on the forums? We could always try and meet up there? I'm just reading over the schedule for the panels now. Sunday is up too.

This might help... at least if it sounds interesting feel free to put your name on the list. Like it says admittance based on capacity though. I'm there by invite of EA Games so I will be there for sure. It's an after hours party on Thursday night: http://www.viceland.com/brutallegend/

[jrcjohnny99]

Wow;

Looks like it's gonna be another good Con;
I'm excited about Fox's Avatar presentation and the panel with Cameron and Peter Jackson, Kevin Smith is always a must see and Iron Man 2 should be fun.

"Iron Man 2" Cast at Comic-Con
What better way to show off the fully loaded sequel to the wildly successful "Iron Man" than an appearance at Comic-Con. Strong man Mickey Rourke goes from "The Wrestler" to the villainous role of Whiplash. But Sam Rockwell will be working it as the gazillionaire rival to Tony Stark (AKA Iron Man). While we love the indie actor's work, our money's still on Robert Downey, Jr. "

Now on the CBn main page...

James Bond autograph schedule for Comic-Con 2009

George Lazenby, Maud Adams, Tanya Roberts and many more attending

[zencat]

You should make it back, GS. Be great to see you again. Just imagine Comic Con in 2000 with about 100,000 more people. That's what it's like now.

[jrcjohnny99]

Looks like there's been a few updates on the Con schedule this week;

So, whats everybody looking forward to?

I'm looking to be at the following panels

Female Power Icons in Pop Culture (Sigourney Weaver, Zoe Saldana) ; Thursday (20)

Avatar (Jim Cameron et al) ; Thursday (H)

Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus (Terry Gilliam); Thursday (H)

Warner Bros (Sherlock Holmes, Jonah Hex etc); Friday (H)

Production Designers : Friday (30AB)

Visionaries (Jim Cameron, Peter Jackson) ; Friday (H)

Eastwick ; Saturday (6A)

Sony (Zombieland, 2012); Saturday (H)

Iron Man 2 ; Saturday (H)

Kevin Smith ; Saturday (H)

Watchmen screening; Saturday (6BCF)


As always a bunch of overlaps; I'd really like to see Ray Bradbury but he clashes with Iron Man 2...and theres a good looking TV Guide panel on Sci-Fi but that clashes with something else..
I'm really buzzed about the Watchmen screening and very excited about Avatar..

Kevin Smith is always a must see, if you're going to the con and have never seen him; dont miss it!

Whats everyone else looking forward to?

[Righty007]

Gregg Berger will also be in attendance. He was the voice of Armitage Rook in NightFire.

Thursday (AA23) - 11:00 am–3:00 pm
Friday (AA28) - 3:00 pm–7:00 pm

[Athena007]

I kinda just go to the con and go with the flow. I usually have some kinda of schedule planned out and hardly ever follow it. But here are a few things I'm sure I will not miss. Also will probably try to TWEET (@athenastamos) the whole time if peeps are bored and want to follow me for whatever random reason. Or if you're at the con, don't have my phone# and want to meet up you can DM me on twitter.
