Already counting down the days until the 40th Annual San Diego Comic-Con International? Are you not because you were one of the unfortunate ones to not be able to get the tickets on time? I will tap onto that later, but first we’ll concentrate on Warner Bros. and what they have in store for us this year.
This studio tends to always have the biggest presentations, especially with their ‘tower’ booth on the main floor and the ridiculously huge bags that each one of the attendees crave for every year. This time around, their list on Hall H starts off on Thursday with the first ever 3D presentation (I know, how will they pull that off?) of The Final Destination, and not to confuse you, this is the 4th movie of the Final Destination series, not the first movie all over again.
Warner Bros. continues on by dominating the late morning/early afternoon on Friday. Going along with a huge list of film presentations between The Book of Eli, Where the Wild Things Are, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Box, Sherlock Holmes and Jonah Hex, there is not a single film that doesn’t peak a person’s interest at the Con that they wouldn’t like to check out. Even though it is not confirmed, talk of a couple of cast and crew of each film would be at their respected presentations could most likely happen. What is confirmed though is Robert Rodriguez appearing for a Q&A session for his upcoming family friendly film Shorts.
Last but not least is the newest announcement, confirming that popular animated film director and writer Hayao Miyazaki will attend this year’s Comic-Con for the first time. Making his way in with brand new clips of his latest Japanese animated film, Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea, this particular San Diego convention is filling up with a bunch of famed first timers.
Also, if any of you still do want to go to this year’s Comic-Con and do not have any tickets, keep your eyes peeled at Comic-Con on Twitter for even more tickets that are on sale (for a limited time!). (Special thanks for SD Examiner, Coming Soon! & Warner Bros for the information)
