The following preview has been approved for All Ponies
Is anyone planning on attending San Diego Comic Con this year? We're all still waiting on the final programming schedule to be released, but it looks like enough scheduling information has leaked for me to know I'm going to be spending more time in line than usual (and that's saying something). Both Supernatural and Doctor Who have been bumped up to Hall H, the huge theatre normally reserved for major movie panels.
Of course, if one report I've read is true, the line for Hall H won't necessarily be a bad place to be; while there isn't going to be an Avengers panel this year, they're apparently setting up S.H.I.E.L.D. "security screenings" and recruitment booths for the people in line outside.
Maybe at last Nick Fury will put me on the payroll and as such allow me to stalk him more effectively.

For those of you who've played (and completed) Portal 2, someone made a cute music video for the game's end credits song ("Want You Gone"). If you haven't played the game but intend to, there are spoilers ahoy. GLaDOS, the love I feel for you is both intense and deeply self-destructive.
I have also recently discovered the wonder that is My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic versions of recent movie trailers. There are a bunch out there, apparently, but these are the ones that have crossed my path so far:
TransforMares 3: Dark of the NightMare Moon
My Little Serenity
and my personal favourite
X-Ponies: First Class
No, seriously. It's a work of pony genius. The pies.
TheMarySue.com's blurb about the Firefly remix mentions the subtle, but totally appropriate casting choices in these trailers that become apparent when you've seen a few episodes of My Little Pony. As someone who has (and I say this entirely without shame -- it's very cute show), I totally agree with this assessment.
To that end, Spike as Shia Labeouf is kind of inspired. Maybe if I just mentally subbed the guy out everytime I saw him, I'd enjoy more of his work.
