1 Degree of James McAvoy @ WonderCon

*Wasn't I in a movie with you?*

Russell Brand is in Penelope for about 2 minutes.
(Which btw was a really cute movie. And not because James was ridiculously good looking and Christina Ricci spent the whole thing decked out in Marc Jacobs. Oh wait that is why I liked it.) ______________________________________

I didn't make it to the Iron Man panel. Sorry for no pics!________________________________________

BEST PICTURE OF 2008:Wall-E @ WonderCon

Disney/WALL-E panel @ WonderCon/SaturdayWall-E director Andrew Stanton shared some clips from the movie and I must say I can already tell it's going to be my favorite movie of the year. Any movie that draws inspiration from Sci-Fi movies and musicals is going to earn a special place in my heart. Those PIXAR people scare/excite me with their constant brilliance. Stockholm please give these people a prize!

GLAU! @ WonderCon

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles panel @ WonderCon/Sunday
I only caught the very end of The Terminator:SCC panel on Sunday but I did manage to catch the clip from the season finale. I have to admit I haven't been following the show too closely but I have seen a couple of eps. Mostly in support of Glau. The panel did convince me that Kevin Zegers doppelgänger Thomas Dekker is indeed a hottie mostly because he actually looked like he really enjoyed being in the panel.

On a somewhat connected note: Did you know that Canuck Kevin Zegers is in those CKin2U ads? Talk about nondescript! They could have at least shown his entire face! But I digress from the WonderCon recap.

There's no escaping Michael Chabon @ WonderCon

Michael Chabon @ WonderCon 08/Saturday
"Mercedes like Count of Monte Cristo." I think in my entire life only three people have ever made that connection. The other person was a woman working at the gift shop of the Dolores Mission in San Francisco. I had Mr.Chabon sign my HC The Escapists which was awesome. BTW everything is awesome about him if you're wondering. I'm still pretty starstruck. The man has a well deserved Pulitzer and is a super nice person.
On a side note: I really wish he could have signed my page from issue 3 but that baby is hanging beautifully in my solarium.

Like A Make-a-Wish Kid: The X-Files WonderCon Panel

Just knowing that Gillian's favorite episode is "Bad Blood" (and David making fun of her for it) was worth the whole trip.

The Devil Wears Manga Costumes

Anne Hathaway looked fabulous @ WonderCon on Saturday.
BTW:This weekend was like 2 degrees of James McAvoy! Anne & James co-starred in last year's "Becoming Jane". And fellow Saturday Panelist Gillian Anderson starred with him in 2006's "Last King of Scotland".

I LOVE JAMES MCAVOY! [or How I love Wonder-Con!]

I saw James McAvoy @ WonderCon on Friday. You can be jealous now.
[More pictures to come later!]

Countdown to WonderCon: Is Yorick Brown in town?

So I arrived today in San Francisco for WonderCon after taking pretty much every mode of transportation invented by man. BTW: San Fran is busting at the seams with Geeks since there is also a gaming developers conference in town. Needless to say I've overheard TONS of fascinating conversations. But I did manage to make it to Fishermans Wharf today and do some sightseeing (ie: taking a zillion pics of The Rock). Which is where I came across the straight-jacket and of course thought of dear (now) old Yorick. Ah I'm ready for the con to start! But till then some retail therapy in Union Square will have to do.
