San Diego ComicCon 2010

Post by Tamara » Thu Mar 25, 2010 10:55 am

I actually got a hotel through the website this year AND it was the one I wanted- the Marriott adjacent to the convention center! I stayed there 2 years ago and it was fantastic.

I got a quad, so any ringers who'd be interested in splitting the $297 per night with me, just send me a PM.

Anyone else planning to go, besides Garfeimao and her sister?

I can't wait. SDCC is the ONLY vacation I promise myself each year, as I've been saving up for NZ since ROTK. Wrapping up the Master's degree this summer (for which NZ was to be my reward), but we'll see how the timing goes. Real life has a tendency to throw financial curves at me.

Keep hoping some Ringers might be ready for a return to Red Carpet tours by the time I do go, plus some extra time in Wellington/Auklund. In the meantime, ComicCon always provides plenty of fun and sun. :)

I was under the impression that SDCC was sold out...anyway my two new jobs prevent me from having much fun this summer...I'd love to see you, but I don't think its in the cards.

Are we or should I say who is going to the TT at Radio City in October...I've requested off from my weekend job...so if i decide to I will be able to go.

Just a note that returned passes are on sale at the comic con website and they have recently posted Thursday and Friday's programming. Saturday and Sunday will probably be released over the weekend!

Looks like all but Sunday passes are gone, but the schedules are up:

And there are a couple of films with LOTR actors being presented in Hall H Red, Super, Priest), as well as John Noble's Fringe in Ballroom 20.

Not to mention a couple LOTR after parties on Thursday (WETA fans from the Shadow and Flam forum) and Saturday (TORn).

Lots of goodies to enjoy and I'll try to report after wards for those who are missing this year.
