I’m plotting my Con schedule, configuring my line-up like a particularly intricate game of Tetris, trying to ensure that I have adequetely budgeted for 1) panels and 2) exploring the vast con floor and of course 3) drinking.<\/p>\n
My biggest issue so far is Sunday. I can leave whenever I want on Sunday, as we are driving. However, I will also most likely be CON-ED OUT by Sunday, and will be at that super-special point where I will totally go into drooly, eye-twitchy spasms if I have to sit still for one more Q&A or see one more glossy promotional poster for Heroes<\/i> or hear one more nasal voice pontificating about Superman Returns<\/i>.<\/p>\n
So. I’m definitely staying for Gail Simone’s Q&A, which ends at 12:30. Then lunch and the long road home. Right?<\/p>\n
Well, maybe not. Because then I saw this:<\/p>\n
1:00-2:30 Rogue Pictures\u00e2\u20ac\u201d Rogue Gallery will feature previews of upcoming Rogue Pictures movies, plus special appearances by filmmakers and actors from Balls of Fury (Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon, of Reno 911!) and Hot Fuzz (Edgar Wright and Nick Frost, of Shaun of the Dead), and more guests to be announced! Room 20<\/i><\/p>\n
Hot Fuzz! Nick Frost! Edgar Wright! AND MORE GUESTS TO BE ANNOUNCED!<\/p>\n
Can I do it? Can I last until 2:30? I know it doesn’t seem that<\/i> much later than 12:30, but trust me, it is.<\/p>\n
What would you do?! I’m looking in your direction, Chris Stewart. And also yours, John Charles and Katherine (by the way, you guys are totally on Rock Star<\/i> right now! I paused the TiVo!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
