Ferg got through the first day at Comic Con, here’s a C&P of his tweets from the day, until the recap goes online!
Also, forgot to mention this. Ridley Scott is shooting a PG-13 and R-Rated version of Prometheus. He'll decide later which to release.
Bummed I missed the Final Destination 5 3D preview. Word is it was wonderfully nasty. Fantastic 3D, too.
Rumors abound of the director appearing tonight. He's staying across the street in the Marriott. So it's entirely likely.
Secured my tickets to a screening of Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive @ 7PM. Review will come later this week.
Now. Off to try squeeze in to a screening of the action pic, Drive.
Ridley Scott calls in from Reykjavik, on set. Theron explains it's 7 flights and a helicopter ride.
And no sign of any Xenomorphs, for anyone wondering.
It looks frightening, violent and stunningly beautiful. Think 2001: A Space Odyssey meets The Thing.
Damon Lindelof & Charlize Theron take the stage to discuss her role. Her character is initially 'cold' and is somewhat of an enigma.
First footage of Prometheus just screened. Thoughts; in-fucking-credible.
Refn just name dropped his remake of Logan's Run. He says he may call on Del Toro for help.
This wonderful panel is about to finish. Up next; 20th Century Fox's panel.
The studio told Del Toro to leave the film in it's original, uncut form. 'Why ruin a perfectly good horror film'?
Ron Perlman wants to fight Dick Cheney.
Del Toro talks up his love for monsters. They're a "walking Fuck You", he explains.
Just met Badass Digest's Devin Faraci. Very nice guy.
Del Toro's voice makes an cuss word hilarious. He's lightening the mood for the panel. Good, light stuff.
Del Toro calls Mountains Of Madness' canceling "a massacre".
Drive trailer was beautifully wild. Looks like true LA noir.
Film District panel now with Guillermo Del Toro, Nic Winding Refn, Ron Perlman, Troy Nixey and Carey Mulligan.
Paul Rueben is pretty fucking hilarious. Dying at the panel right now.
Appatow insisted on a 'road-picture' style in the new Pee-Wee flick.
Pee-Wee's making a new film, Produced by Judd Appatow.
Eric Vespe (Quint from AICN), takes the stage for a Playhouse/Pee-Wee panel.
Sony showing off Arthur Christmas. Looks...just like every other Christmas animated flick. Nice British cast, though.
Laurie now explains his Pirates (while searching for gold), encounter lepers, nudists and ghosts. Yes, this will be a very unusual film.
Pirates will also feature Jeremy Piven as a rough-tough Pirate who annually wins the "Pirate Of The Year" award.
...the SDCC-exclusive trailer just played. It's looking very, very good. The 3D looks exceptional, especially for a stop-motion flick.
Currently sitting down to Sony's Animation panel. Peter Laurie talking about upcoming Pirates: Band Of Mischief 3D...
When asked, the 3 Twilight leads favor the infamous birthing scene in Breaking Dawn.
Sitting in Hall H, awaiting the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 panel. I can feel the pending screams.
The costume of choice seems to be a little different this year. A lot of Natalie Portman-styled Black Swans.
The San Diego Comic-Con has officially kicked off!! Waiting in a very, very long queue.
