To the Calendar! Comic-Con 2009 Schedule Released
Filed under: Fandom, Movie Marketing, ComicCon
Cinematical will be hitting Comic-Con 2009 in San Diego again this year, bringing you the sights, highlights, and lowlights of the four-day geek mecca. A mecca that now officially has a schedule. Since cloning machines still haven't been invented, if anyone manages to do that in in the next couple of weeks please let us know. We're going to need to be at multiple locations during multiple simultaneous times.
But, that just about sums up the entirety of Comic-Con: dashing from panel to panel, catching a glimpse of the millions of costumes, stopping by booths, hitting parties, and then repeating. You can check out the full schedule right here (eventually -- it's Thursday and Friday only for now), and we'll be posting some of what's on our Cinematical Must See list as we work our way through the schedule with a highlighter, but here's a couple of standouts for Thursday:
- 11:00-12:30 Disney: 3D Panel- Walt Disney Pictures presents key filmmakers, select cast members and previously unseen footage from its upcoming slate, including Disney's A Christmas Carol, Alice In Wonderland and Tron. Special guests include Robert Zemeckis, Tim Burton, Sean Bailey, Steve Lisberger, and moderator Patton Oswalt. Hall H
- 12:45-2:00 20th Century Fox and James Cameron present Avatar- In this first public screening of footage in 3D from his much-anticipated action/adventure/fantasy, James Cameron, producer Jon Landau, and cast members take you to a spectacular new world beyond imagination. Conceived 14 years ago and over four years in the making, Avatar breaks new ground in delivering a fully immersive, emotional story and reinvents the movie-going experience. Hall H

Haha those costumes are amazing. Batman's so good I thought it was Adam West but it looks like Superman washed his with the wrong colors or something.

I think Superman looks like he did the old serials with Kirk Alyn.

I think he's going for the George Reeves version:

It's the Kirk Alyn version done in the true real life colors to reflect the B&W era look. While similar, it is not the Reeves. Look at the cape and the sleeve cuffs. And the fact the hair isn't totally slicked back.

According to Comic-Con, it looks like it will be doled out piece by piece. Friday should be up tomorrow, so you might be right about through Sunday. We'll link it here as it goes live.

Agreed Kent! I own an original Alyn Superman costume and this isn't even close!

There's no way of telling what that K. Alyn suit looked like in those serials... Jaysin is right, looks like too much clorox to me!

Actually you could take a pretty good educated guess on the grey tones used for the Kirk Alyn from the serials but besides it's obvious that the costume is based on the color pictures of the Alyn costume from auction photos over the years.
