A little photo shoot tonight of my 7 year old in his SHIELD Agent costume, complete with Destroyer Gun.

That's awesome!

If you're on Twitter, you should totally tweet that at Clark Gregg, he'd love it!

If anyone is willing to get me the comic con QMx exclusive gold Firefly keychain, I will be forever in your debt.

Hey Guys, I've been going to the Con for several years, but have never attended the panels mostly because of the crazy lines. Can someone please tell me what exactly goes on that makes it such a big deal. Especially Hall H?

Well... Hall H... is where you get to see panels of the biggest upcoming movies, or even TV shows. With some of the biggest names showing up to share a good time with fans.
I've gotten the chance to see Peter Jackson, James Cameron, Guillermo del Toro, Francis Ford Coppola, etc.
As well as people like Charlize Theron, Chris Hemnsworth, Angelina Jolie, Milla Jovovich, etc.

It's fun to see exclusive footage, and overall a great experience.
The lines are not fun though... but I've been able to walk into a couple of panels without lining up. But the most popular ones are always packed!

Thats how I am going to try it to do it this year, I never have gone to any panels except at Monsterpalooza for American Werewolf in London and it was so awesome seeing the cast and crew there talking about everything i now want to try and see what one would be on a larger scale in person and not on youtube where i can enjoy the exclusive footage!

I'm going to be posting a bunch of SDCC photos, I'm wondering where is the best place to put them here on the forum? Should I start a new thread in the "Event photos" subforum?

In the mean time, here are photos from today, Monday as thing are starting to come together:

Thanks Guys, but I don't think I'll be sitting at a 12 Hr line for that.
Have fun while you're there.

My Wife and I started doing Hall H three years ago. All I had ever heard was how bad it was, how long the wait was, etc.

We strolled over there on Friday morning around 11:00am. The first panel (Tintin) had started, and there were only about 100 people in line. That panel ended 15 minutes later and a bunch of people who wanted to see Spielberg left. And we were in. 20 minute wait.

Last year on Thursday we strolled up about 15 minutes before the first panel started (which was Twilight, and people had literally camped out 3 nights to be first in line). We walked up and right into Hall H with no wait.

Then came Saturday....Saturday is always the biggest day with the biggest movies and biggest actors. Got in line at 8am (which was 17 miles long because no one had gotten in yet). At 9:30 they started letting people in. We got maybe 50 people from the front of the line and it stopped.....never to move again. Waited SIX hours and didn't move an inch. Gave up around 2:30-3:00 and went into the convention center.

So if anything, Hall H is unpredictable. The problem is, to see a really, really good panel that starts at 5pm, people like to make sure they are inside by noon just to be absolutely certain they'll see their panel. Once it's full, if no one leaves, no one gets in.

But for us, SDCC has become all about Hall H. We LOVE it, it is extremely entertaining even if you're seeing movies that you really aren't that interested in. We were both amazed by how much fun we had.

Since we also attend Wondercon, Comikaze and LBCC, we do more shopping there. This year, Wed/Sun will be shopping, and we'll be in Hall H pretty much all day Thurs/Fri/Sat.

Mythos Vader and Boba made the huge banner! That's promising.

 

[Darth Waller]

Hey, they finally got new banners!

 

[Darth Waller]

Now that the hype is beginning, I'm sad I won't be there.

 

[Chapter 2099]

Now that the hype is beginning, I'm sad I won't be there.

We can have a 'Not really there, but there in spirit" SDCC 2013 thread.

[BuffyGirl]

This thread is killing me. I'm so tense for this entire thing and I'm not even going.

I'd like to say thank you to the freaks for coming through when possible and always be there to try to help me.
