Marvel gave loyalists the biggest headline of the fest with the on-screen appearance of all the Avengers standing side by side, even Mark Ruffalo as Edward Norton’s replacement.
But I said all the way back …
We walked the three miles of the convention floor, we went to the panels, we took it all in while spending the past five days in San Diego. Now that Comic-Con 2010 is officially over, we’ve picked a few of our favorites that we think will blow up big within the sci-fi entertainment industry in the next year or so.
Find out what we …
It’s not every day that a Comic-Con film is chosen to grace the cover of Entertainment Weekly. So it was little surprise Saturday, when the crowds flooded Hall H to catch a glimpse of Green Lantern, which had been singled out by EW as the single biggest event of the 2010 festivities. (See EW’s exclusive gallery of celeb portraits from …
Everyone says Comic-Con is crazy. After spending five days in San Diego this year we know that’s true. We loved it. We hated it. We even caught wind some guy was stabbed. And we’ll have more wrap up coverage for you over the next day or two.
But for all of you who couldn’t make it (or were there and want to re-live it), here’s a real …
It’s inevitable to be overwhelmed at Comic-Con. The crowds. The lines. The vastness of geekery occurring all around you. But how to digest it all? Sure, the big, sparkly promotions were great in the moment. But a few days removed, some of the “magic” seems to be more smoke and mirrors. That’s the fickle nature of the Con. Jam-packed with …
Comic-Con is four days of craziness. It’s packed with new information, brand-new trailers, big-time announcements and elaborate events. And sometimes it’s hard to keep up (and easy to miss things).
As Comic-Con winds down to an end, Techland looks back at the coolest, most unforgettable moments of this year’s Con.
There’s no doubt about it: Jeff Bridges is a really nice guy. In the eye of the Comic-Con hurricane, attached to the most popular property of the year, he has nothing but smiles and thoughtful answers for journalists.

There have already been a lot of movie screenings at Comic-Con – a lot of big cheers for Harry Potter and sneers each and every time the trailer for Devil, bearing the name of one M. Night Shyamalan, screens.
But I think it’s pretty safe to say that the most heads cocked to one side, and the most jaws dropped in disbelief, during …
Will TRON: Legacy live up to all the hype? Who knows. But I learned three big things from the packed TRON party Friday night inside Flynn’s Arcade on Sixth Avenue in downtown San Diego. For starters, Disney is banking some major coin on the TRON future. Second, even if the movie is a disappointment we’ll have at the very least five …
“How about Harry F’in Potter!”
That was how Zack Snyder put it a couple minutes after thousands of the Comic-Con faithful checked out the very first footage from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Saturday afternoon.
