Comic Con 2012

I really love comic con.  This year was the first year in a long time that I decided to do the whole go-super-early thing, for something that I was extremely excited about: The Hobbit.  The Hall H panels were amazing - so many surprises, and so many movies I am excited to see now: Quentin Tarantino's Django looks sweet, Pacific Rim, Man of Steel, the Candidate, GODZILLA, and the Hobbit.  OMG, 12+ minutes of the Hobbit footage - so amazing.  I really can't wait for that, even though they did add a character: Tauriel, played by Evangeline Lily.  It can't be worse than Liv Tyler though, so... I'm not super worried.

The panels were great, and I was happy that I went.  Good to see old friends, and meet new ones.  I love hanging around people who understand the nerdiest jokes, and who understand when I say 'winter is coming'.  So great to indulge in the nerdism all weekend.
