Hmmm….good point, Mat D. I didn’t mean to come off as ungrateful sounding, it’s just the hosts really piss me off, and it irks me that they don’t give the actual comic books (or comics films) as much coverage as they do video games, computers, internet, movies etc. What I’d really like tho is a Comic Book Channel. Why hasn’t that been done yet? We have channles for everything these days, and with all the movie attention comics are getting, I don’t get why this hasn’t been done yet.

as for “lousy” G4 coverage…at least someone is covering it, the best it got prior to that was an occasional mention on MTV or E!….

lol Vic, no just some confusion.
I was saying that I’ll be watching the Comic Book Movie and that maybe I’ll see you in the background. It was shot at Comic Con a few years ago.

KEL thought I was talking about your classic Maui headshot, btw, is that a trader joes shirt? Jk.

Ghessh I mispelled lukes name!!!
Yeah KEL, Hammil is a class act.
I will for sure give you a review.

Oh I know that’s Vic, LoL.
I was just joking that after a few beers I might see him in the movie. Maybe in the background.

I’ve heard of it, 790, haven’t seen it yet, I’ve wanted to check it out for sometime.

Mark Hammil is awesome. He’s really a great guy and a huge comics fan.

Lemme know how that is.

And yes, that’s Vic’s picture. The handsome devil.

Anyone see the “Comic Book Movie?” I just picked it up on dvd.

I havnt watched it yet, but its a documentary on the Comic Com. Hosted by Luuuuuke himself (Mark Hammel).

Looks kinda cool. Maybe I’ll save that for the weekend of the show, power down some beers put it on and pretend I’m there. ??? .

Hey is that Vic in the background???

I’m gonna try to make it to the Baltimore MD comic con later this year. I live in PA, FYI….

Still, I’d love to make it to the San Diego Comic Con. But I’ll probably be stuck here watching the lousy coverage the folks at G4 provide on the event. :p

It would be great to meet you guys, but I live in Maryland. If you are ever in DC, let me know.

I really wish I could go! I’m excited for a lot of the movies they’ll be talking about. But alas, not this year…

Hahaha Bruce, sounds like work…?

Sadly Vic I don’t think I’m going to make it this year. I didn’t realise the Saturday tickets were allready sold out.
The Venue also seems to have moved deeper south to Downtown SD.

O-well, it will be fun to get the reports from the show and saving the 300 bucks is also fun.
Try to have a good time and don’t stress this year.

I’d love to be there, doubt if I’ll make it tho (I’ll keep trying!!! :p). :/

However, it’s great to know that the good folks here at SR will be providing PLENTY of coverage, I’ll be tuning in very often to see what’s up.

Vic, Bruce, I know you guys will be VERY busy, but please try and find out what’s up with DC’s movie schedule. JLA, MOS, The Flash, GL — WB/DC should make some type of announcement regarding those projects at the con.

It’s funny tho….comic con isn’t really that focused on comics anymore, is it? It’s more like movie con…..kinda. :/

Come one, come all I say! It will be fun to meet everyone.

Uh, crash course? Uh ho.
