I think I was the only Halforumite who was able to attend, so here are a few pics from yesterday. I was Captain Hammer again. What? It works!

The Walking Dead booth:


Teh Kurtz:


The Marriott Hotel:


Pros: Awesome movie premieres, booths, panels, and video game demos. The whole Gaslamp Quarter got into the Con spirit and there were tons of things to do even outside the Convention Center.

Cons: Every one of those things I mentioned was packed. I seriously felt like I was at Disneyland with all those lines. I almost miss the days before geeky stuff became cool. In addition, pre-registration was capped even before I got there so I'll have to take my chances in the online crap-shoot in a few months.

Next year is sold out already?!? God damn it!

It's not sold out. PRE-registration for the 2011 attendees is full to capacity. They'll still sell passes online as usual sometime in autumn. That will probably mean a succession of server crashes as the hordes of Twi-hards and newbies register hundreds of hits per second.

Disney handles crowds better than ComiCon. ComiCon does a great job with what they are faced with, but not nearly at the efficiency of Disney.

Kagsin and I were there too. I didn't see either of you. D:
I didn't take nearly as many photos this year as I normally do (only 84 vs my usual 400++ per con...)

"Oh, You Sexy Geek" panel


Picked up 4 prints from Laurie B <3 Codex, Harley, Peach, and Leeloo


Adrianne Curry as Leeloo


Kit as Slave Leia


Serenity! This booth had the coolest stuff!

Like these prints! I bought them. They're beautiful.

SQUEE!

I am jealous. I would dress in sexy schoolgirl clothing if I got to meet MC Frontalot.

Normally I'm rather blase about Slave Leia costumes. Kit looks amazing, though.

Anyone who wants a better look at those Firefly prints, I just found them on deviantArt the other day!

You guys have no idea how jealous I am about your going to SDCC. I was going to get tickets and then we had all that unemployment thing...

My... weakness... asian women in schoolgirl outfits...

When I get my pic's up I'll let you know!

Heatherling and IronBrig4: It looks like you guys had an awesome time! =^^=

I didn't have the camera because I was cosplaying, so when I get them from ze hubby's computer, I'll post for sure.

Love the pics. Here's a few more that I took.

This is the best Garrus outfit I've ever seen.


Don't blink.


They had banners for all the major houses.

Been there twice (thanks, USN!), but the last time was way back in 1994. Too bad I lost all the con stuff in the '05 fire.
