Comic-Con!
Ok. So I made a deal with myself.
Damon gave me the ok to go to all four days of Comic-Con whether I volunteered (and thus got free admission) or not. The catch is I would be going pretty much alone. However, I don't really care-- there are a few things that I just really want that will be there, and a drive to San Diego (even if I have to rent a car because mine has the nasty habit of overheating) is totally worth it. So I decided to only go one day to save money and sanity.
Well I have plans Friday (I think... really, I think I do) and Sunday, so that gives me Tomorrow and Saturday. Here's the competition:
Thursday:
The creators of Ren & Stimpy, one of my all-time favorite shows.
Bruce Campbell
Saturday:
A panel on the spiritual themes in comic books
The cast & crew of Stargate SG-1, which I will never admit to being a fan of.
Kevin Smith
A premiere of the feature-length Family Guy production
Footage for Rob Zombie's movie The Devil's Rejects which I am obligated to see, because Rob Zombie was at my first concert.
The cast and crew of The Simpsons
Of course, the annual Masquerade, which is really just a big costume party that I hear is really funny to watch.
So it looks like an easy decision? Wrong. It essentailly turns out to a competition between Bruce Campbell and Kevin Smith.
Wait. Bruce Campbell is doing autographs on Saturday?
Fuck that, I'm going Saturday.
