I call shenanigans. Hall H isn’t the only thing that happens at SDCC. And the list of virtual panels that they put together was well-programmed. Even the Ballroom-20/Indigo Ballroom level stuff made available, from Star Trek to the Right Stuff was great, and the fun stuff you’d peak your head into in the smaller rooms Read more

I thought it was decent, it just didn’t have Event status because there was no exclusivity; anyone could join the event so there was no need to tweet: “I was in the room!”

It’s really fun and the practical effects have aged really well.  Read more

I hadn’t thought of this before, but that would be a brilliant piece of casting! Read more

I want a Nuklon mohawk flashback for one scene. Read more

Niflheim is the homeland of primordial darkness, cold, mist, and ice. Read more

Dragon King asking to sit only so he could stand to make his big announcement cracked me up. That was great. Read more
