Its time again for the SDCC interview spectacular! This year, we steal a few minutes to talk to Jane Espenson & Brad Bell (Husbands), Marissa Meyer (author: Cinder, Scarlet, Cress), Oliver Vaquer (VA: Robert Lutece, BioShock Infinite), and Lizzy Caplan, Rob Benedict, Josh Meyers, & Jordan Peele (cast of The Sidekick). [Special thanks to Peter Bogolub for the new musical bumpers!]
As I headed home from the first annual GaymerX I was that person on mass transit—the one wearing sunglasses underground to obscure my face due to feelings. Not “feels,” actual damn feelings. “Feels” come and go; “feelings” need to be processed, reflected on. This meant I had to throw out my initial concept of what this write-up was going to be and instead, hopefully, capture the importance of GaymerX on a different level than merely panel content.
Matt, Hilary, and Ash return from San Diego with tales of SDCC 2013.
If you, like me, were worried about a follow up to X-Men Origins: Wolverine, mostly due to the ghastly portrayal of B level characters and a borderline non-existent story. Well, it's time to hold on to your hats people, The…
If a machine existed that could predict how you were going to die, would you use it? After wandering the Comic-Con floor for hours my wife and I stumbled across a small booth near the back of the hall. Mysteriously…
I was incredibly excited to check out Telltale's Walking Dead panel at this year's Comic-Con because season two of the hit game is shambling our way this fall. Sadly, the folks at Telltale Games weren't willing to reveal all that…
Nerd HQ has been growing for the past few years and this year it managed to occupy a good portion of the baseball stadium Petco Park. For about twenty-two dollars you can purchase a ticket to see some of your favorite stars and creators speak in front of a small audience of about 250 people.
Like so many people who did not attend San Diego Comic Con I’ve been pouring over the post-convention news and analysis; searching for scraps of information of what geeky goodness is to come in entertainment. However, the article that stood out most to me wasn’t the news of a Superman/Batman movie (Aside: I kind of wrinkled my nose at that), but of an individual describing his experience in Hall H for a day.
A new super hero team was introduced to us during the Awesome's Panel in the Indigo Ballroom at the Hilton. This team is well, slightly less Awesome than the name implies, but looks fantastic. The idea spawned from writing team…
On day four of Comic-Con I made my way down to the Xbox Lounge at the Manchester Grand Hyatt to check out some of the upcoming titles for both the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The lounge was dimly lit, spread out, and was a huge relief from the chaos of the Comic-Con floor. I wish I had gone earlier.
Falling Skies won me over at Comic-Con a few years back by giving me a promotional cup of coffee months before the show initially aired. Apparently free coffee is the key to my icy heart because I've been a fan…
We featured The Sidekick as one of the five panels that should not be missed at this year’s Comic-Con, but were we right? The Sidekick follows super hero sidekick Max McCabe on a journey of self discovery after his disastrous final mission with Captain Wonder (played by a wonderfully dry Ron Livingston). Created as a way to cope with turning forty, actor-writer Rob Benedict successfully assembled a team of super-talented friends to help out with the film including Martin Starr, Lizzy Caplan, Richard Speight Jr., Jordan Peele, Jason Ritter, and Josh Meyers.
