WB is not doing their normal Hall H Saturday presentation this year. But for whatever reason, they have a DC Comics booth I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, the other side of the coin. "It's become too popular now". Nerd culture is mainstream. Sorry man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) What's funny is that i was just listening to a pod about Shel Dorf inviting Gene Roddenberry to SDCC in 1973. He couldnt go, but Koenig and Doroty Fontana were there repping the show. So, the con has really always been multimedia. It's just that the tail wags the dog now and it's too huge (for me) to be enjoyable. Edited July 18, 2019 by odessasteps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry man. I've got nothing against it being popular. At all. I just find it sad that comic books are squeezed out of the spotlight at Comic Con. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 If I was gonna have a gripe about it it would be more towards things like wrestling starting to take up space at SDCC (Since you could make an argument that the most popular stuff (TV/Movie) is based on comic books - it’s a stretch to do so but still) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I really don’t mind media stuff. It’s just too big (for me). I thought it was becoming too big when it got to be 1/3 as big as it is now like 15 years ago. I only went one time after that, and there extenuating circumstances (part of a larger trip, only there 1 day, getting to see Miyazaki ...) in that case and that was almost 10 years ago.

Tromatagon Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 If Freddy really wanted to fuck up my shit in the dream world, he'd come at me as a humanoid cat because that trailer was the most legit unsettling/terrifying thing I've seen in years. But I'd go all Kincaid at him KRUUUUUUUUUGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PUSSSSSSSSSAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 That is just a preview of the supposed Final Fantasy 14 live action show in development for netflix, only with a worse story, and unarguably a significantly worse soundtrack.

HumanChessgame Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Rippa just outed himself as a furry. The Top Gun trailer didn't feature a dubstep (or whatever kids are listening to these days) remix of Dangerzone or Take My Breath Away so at least it's got that going for it.

jaedmc Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Ian McKellan Cat seems weirdly normal to me. Like that's the natural progression of him getting older. He just becomes a cat. I really like the sets and the world around the cats, but I'm about 95% positive I will not watch that movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take your family to see this monstrosity during the holidays, child protective services (it only makes sense for them to be stationed at every theater playing this) should literally snatch your kids away as you enter the auditorium. No one should subject them to this cruel and unusual punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
