Throwback! The Warrior Signing With Dark Knight Rises Star Tom Hardy! Jason Momoa! The Finder Cast! Kat Dennings!
This was an epic day at SDCC!
I’m so stoked I was able to get this photo with Joel Edgerton and Tom Hardy. Warrior is one of my favorite films and I love me some Tom Hardy as well. With Venom coming out, I thought… Perfect Throwback Thurs!
Check it out below!
I literally barely got to bed, when the alarm went off again… sigh… The Novel Strumpet and I rolled out of bed and had a passable continental breakfast at our fancy schmancy Best Western… And off we go! I’m on the hunt for some autograph tickets for Warrior the new Tom Hardy movie, and The Strumpet has books to get signed! Whoo Hoo!
8:56 a.m. – I’m off and heading through the convention doors… I really want a signing ticket for the new Tom Hardy movie Warrior, and they are doing a signing at the Lionsgate booth. Erica is heading that way too… so God willing we’ll get in.
9:01 a.m. – Even though I was in line at 8:00 a.m. and up at 7:00 a.m. the convention floor opens at 9:30 but they always open it early for some reason… Probably to avoid chaos… yeah right
9:02 a.m. – I just got to the Lionsgate booth, and literally there is one dude with a stack of tickets just sitting there… I’m a little shocked! I figured there would be a lot of people but I guess not! I got my ticket pretty easily. Erica got hers as well… I’m heading over to FOX now…
9:05 a.m. – There are only two signings here today… The Finder and Bob’s Burgers. I really wanted The Finder because it is the spin-off of Bones, and I know next year it will be crazy.
9:19 a.m. – It is literally 20 people deep now behind me… Dude, this is a tad crazy.
9:33 a.m. – They just started passing out tickets. I got one for the Finder and now I’m trying to get the hell out of here. I think half of these people are only here for the poster tube giveaway…
9:35 a.m. – I just got a ticket for the Bob’s Burgers signing as well. I haven’t seen the show, but why not right?
9:45 a.m. – I’m doing a swag lap and then going upstairs for the Thundercats line drawing. I am not usually the best when it comes to these things, but I figure why not right?
10:00 a.m. – I just got up here and no one knows where the line is… I mean seriously… I keep asking and asking and asking…
10:11 a.m. – One guy just told me the drawing is by hall H. I’m like dude, we are standing next to the pen, they are lining people up in, and I just don’t know where the line starts.
10:21 a.m. – Okay, so security just lined me up and apparently, I am first in line.
10:22 a.m. – Uh… Now I heard the same security say, bring up the Thundercats people… Uh… Wha?
10:28 a.m. – Oh Jesus I guess there was a whole line of people waiting, some since 8:00 a.m. for Thundercats. I think I am going to get beaten.
10:33 a.m. – I have now made friends with the Thundercats people. LOL… What a crazy day! We are all commiserating about how the Warner Bros booth sucks. What can you do right?
10:41 a.m. – Okay we are pulling, and I’m up… Dude, I actually got it! So stoked… YAY!
10:54 a.m. – Snazzy wristbands! Whoo hoo!
10:58 a.m. – Lionsgate is giving out Conan signing tickets according to the Text from Erica so I’m heading there now…
11:06 a.m. – I scored one! Shockingly there were not that many people waiting for it!
11:08 a.m. – I’m heading back down to FOX for the Bob’s Burgers signing. It’s not that long of a line which is cool cause I need to get thought this, and then to the Thundercats signing at 12:30.
11:34 a.m. – Wow, this convention is packed!
12:02 p.m. – The Bob’s Burgers cast just came in. I do love the poster they did for this show. It’s like a diner or fast food menu.
12:14 p.m. – I can’t say I was blown away by meeting the cast since I didn’t really know the series, but everyone was very nice!
12:19 p.m. – I’m in the Thundercats line now. I’m in the first row which is cool because I have to jump over to the Warrior signing at 1:00 p.m. whew… I’m getting too old for this shit!
12:32 p.m. – The crowd is so think and I keep getting hit and bashed around. I want to kill five people and a Jedi.
12:42 p.m. – Oh, Thundercats are go! The cast just arrived. I will hand it to these booths they are on time!
12:49 p.m. – We are going through the line, and even though we can’t take pictures it’s still pretty cool. The poster is bad ass!
12:51 p.m. – Ohhh we got a Thundercats sword at the end! Yay!
12:53 p.m. – I’m running to Lionsgate… Man oh man, does every signing have to be at the same time… I spot my friend Daria and she gets me in line. God bless having friends!
1:11 p.m. – Okay so Lionsgate is the booth running late, lol… but I can wait a little for Tom Hardy.
1:18 p.m. – Wow, it’s getting packed…
1:31 p.m. – I love the poster for this movie and have a mini poster with me, but they are signing a one sheet… grrrrrrr
1:39 p.m. – Wow, does everything this year have to be madness?
1:43 p.m. – Okay, they are taking a photo of you and the two leads of Warrior Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton That’s pretty rad!
1:47 p.m. – I’m up! I was telling Tom Hardy how excited I am for this movie, and he’s so jazzed. He shakes my hand and I get my photo with the two of them. That was pretty bad ass I have to say…
1:54 p.m. – No time to stop, I have to run to the CBS Showtime booth for the Two Broke Girls signing. I love me some Kat Dennings, and brought my Complex magazine for her as well.
1:57 p.m. – CBS moved their signings upstairs… grrrr… Now I have to run all the way upstairs to get the signing ticket, and then they take you back down to the booth… ugh…
2:12 p.m. I’m here and I got my place in line. There’s not that many people here, I thought there might be more because of Thor. Sigh… Another rhyme…
2:15 p.m. – They are trying to get everyone in a line to head through the convention floor and to the booth… yeah… Sure… lol…
2:21 p.m. – I’m down on the floor and in the line. Apparently CBS had to do this because of the fire marshall. I’m impressed that they are so organized even though they had to wing it.
2:24 p.m. – Dude, all they have to sign is a postcard… ugh… That sucks…
2:32 p.m. – I’m up Kat Dennings has always been a tad… uncomfortable in her own skin, which is why I think I like her. Anyway, she is happy to sign my Complex magazine and I told her how much I love Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist. She actually was surprised, lol…
2:34 p.m. – I’m going over to FOX because I want to see how the Finder signing line is…
2:35 p.m. – The Finder signing was supposed to be at 4:45 p.m. but FOX just posted they moved the time to 3:00! Uh oh… emergency texts need to be sent!
3:01 p.m. – So, everyone I know almost missed The Finder signing, but I managed to tell everyone I knew who had a ticket… Mike The Fanboy saves the day! The stars of The Finder Michael Clarke Duncan and Geoff Stults are here…
3:09 p.m. – This line is zipping though… probably because no one knows about the time change! Doh!
3:11 p.m. – Both guys are super cool. Michael Clarke Duncan is personalizing every poster and is really friendly. Geoff Stults is also really nice.
He asks me if this is my first time at Comic Con and I’m like, dude this is my 10 year. Geoff was like is it like this every year. And I told him that this year was way more hectic and crazy than in the past. He said, “I don’t know how anyone does this.” Lol, sometimes I don’t either!
3:24 p.m. – I have the Conan signing at 5:00 but I’m going to run by the CBS booth for a second. They have this green screen where you can insert yourself into a cast photo… I of course have to pick Weeds! LOL…
3:43 p.m. – I’m heading over to Lionsgate now… The Conan signing is there, and it already looks like madness.
4:06 p.m. – I’m in line with Erica and her sisters now. God, I hope these posters are not one sheets! Sigh… It’s so crazy you can’t even figure out where the line ends…
4:16 p.m. – It would be cool if they let us get a picture again. lol… I know I know I’m not counting on that…
4:26 p.m. – Wow, this line is a bit much… It’s always nice to hand out with friends though. I’m hoping they start on time. The signing is with Stephen Lang, Rachel Nichols, and Jason Momoa… I heard the Rose McGowan is doing a signing somewhere else…
4:38 p.m. – My energy is draining… I think I need a Coke Zero!
4:45 p.m. – Oh, there are the cast members being led though the crowd… Security is like make way, make way… and It’s like… Really dude, it’s not like we’re trying to be in the way, we’re in line… Sigh…
4:51 p.m. – Was that a cranky statement… Hmmmm I’m not sure…
4:56 p.m. – Hmmmm it looks like the cast is doing interviews upstairs at the Lionsgate booth.
5:04 p.m. – Erica has a cute purple shirt on. Someone with impeccable taste picked it out… who could that have been… Oh wait… It was me! Lol…
5:11 p.m. – Okay, so they are behind again… ah well… I kind of expected that…
5:18 p.m. – Oh Lord, they are signing individual one sheet posters… THREE ONE SHEETS! That’s exactly what I need, three giant Conan The Barbarian One Sheet movie posters… sigh….
5:20 p.m. – There’s Jason Momoa… Everyone is applauding him as he walks down the steps…
5:23 p.m. – We’re starting…
5:35 p.m. – It’s going super slow.
5:48 p.m. – We are almost at the front now… Oh Lord… It really is taking forever…
5:53 p.m. – We are almost up there now…
5:56 p.m. – The security is literally blocking everyone’s path to get into the signing… I’m like dude; no one is going to attack Stephen Lang! lol…
6:02 p.m. – Jason Momoa is very friendly, but he is personalizing everything as well as Rachel Nichols… now not only do I have Conan the Barbarian one sheet posters I have personalized Conan the Barbarian one sheet posters! lol… Ah well… Rachel Nichols is really sweet and I told her how much I loved Alias and how bummed I was that she isn’t going to be in G.I. Joe.
6:03 p.m. – okay, we are done with that signing… I’m doing a last minute lap to get some swag and heading back to the hotel room because my friend Scott is arriving tonight and he needs a key. lol…
6:04 p.m. – I’m in line for CB cause he wants some Transformer figure… sigh… Ah well. It’s best to do it now I suppose.
6:41 p.m. – Okay the convention is closed for today, and I’m going to crash… It was a successful day, a tad insane but still good! I do need some sleep though… lol…
Until next time kids!
