First half of the big, damn Comic-Con entry (WIDOMSV Part 3)

OK, so I'm worse than the O.C. Weekly when it's come to getting my Comic-Con report out (their con report was 2 weeks late and still made the cover story with some *ahem* scathing letters

You forgot the part where you told me some guy just tossed the signed poster away. Then of course we could go on about the people demanding more tickets because "I have someone else with me."

[merry_rogue]

Oh yeah, that guy who got to ask the last question, to the extreme disappointment of this girl who'd already been given the mic. His question was really broad too, if I remember right. And in the end, he was strutting through the Plaza with his friends, bragging about "beating that bitch to it" and throwing the poster on the ground like he was spiking a football. Some people just ruin it sometimes

Oh yeah, had forgotten about that chick. Yeah she saw the standee for it, and says. "Oh is that the movie!" Then doesn't want to see it. But is also funny because remember those people in front of us gave that guy one of the red flyers. They had like four of the damn things in that bag.

If I remember correctly, the one who had the fliers chased after Neil when he was escorted out after the Q&A. Seriously, he had a huge cloud of assistants and Paramount staff surrounding him on the way out, but people were still trying to break through to get to him.

Neil's not on a high horse or anything. He just has people who work for and around him who treat him in such a way that you'd think he were the emperor of some galaxy. It's probably exhausting.

Heh, I was just remembering when we were watching Beowulf and Angelina came out and you were commenting on how there was no way her breasts were as high as they animated them to be in the movie. Hahahahaha!!

Wow, that's a really long post. It's kinda funny seeing Indiana Jones as an old man.

Be glad it's only half. Seriously, I was going to try and write it all out in one post and realized it was getting insane.

Funny thing--Harrison Ford joked about not being the hot guy in the film this time around and the camera panned to Shia LaBeouf who's going to be one of his sidekicks.

[toadsavatar]

Is LaBeouf supposed to be hot?

[merry_rogue]

To be completely honest, I can't for the life of me tell Shia LaBeof from any other young, white male actor these days, but when he came up on screen all the teen/early-20-year-old girls in the audience screamed like hysteric fangirls. The only reason why I even knew that was him was because men around me were grumbling about that "fuckin' LaBeouf" and not being as big a shit as he thinks her is.

I'm guessing the fact that I haven't seen any of his movies, or at least seen any and remembered he was in them, has something to do with it.

Harrison was probably just trying to be complimentary in saying that he's not going to be the main heart throb for the young girls any more.

Neil Gaiman is full of awesome.

[merry_rogue]

Total win.

Did you hear about when he was presenting at the Eisner Awards at Comic-Con with Jonathon Ross? He didn't have any speeches planned and told Jonathon to just be funny and he be the straight man for it.

Then Jonathon just randomly said something like "We will now do our tribute to Madonna and Briney Spears" and this is what came of it:

It's funny when you see Neil's face as he suddenly realizes what was just said.

[bla_girl]

That is why that man is full of win.
