These Comic Con pics are amusing me. Especially the Stormtrooper with the surfboard. (Gives me the urge to watch Troops again. :D)

Also apparently Disney's going to try making another Haunted Mansion movie? One that doesn't suck? We'll see, Disney. We'll see.

Have you seen the pics yet of the counterprotest those attending Comic Con did against the Westboro Baptist Church? Amazing, simply amazing.

Yes! My favorite was the Bender with the "kill all humans" sign since it's appropriate no matter what the circumstances. XD

Hehe, I also liked the guy in the Starfleet uniform with the sign "God Hates Jedis" and the fact that there was such a small number of the Westboro idiots and at least a good 50+ of the Comic - Con attendies out with signs. Message to the Westboro idiots: Geeks fight back. Don't mess with the Geeks.

I'm not really sure why they're protesting in the first place. I probably don't want to know.

Their usual shit about immorality and the like. *shrugs* At least the counterprotests were cool.

*looks back at 4pm news* Holy Sith, Darth Vader just held up a bank!

Well I guess he's gotta pay for the Death Star somehow...

I read about that yesterday. I'm cautiously optimistic/excited because I love Guillermo del Toto. It could be a great movie in the right hands. I refuse to acknowledge the existence of previous Haunted Mansion movie...but if it did exist (which it doesn't), I would say it was beyond horrible.

*nods* I also agree on that other non-existent movie.

You know, I actually have high hopes for this announced Haunted Mansion movie. Having spent as much time at the parks as I have, and as I'm sure you have, I LOVE the Mansion, and I seriously think it deserves a proper film. And I think Guillermo del Toro is TOTALLY the guy to do. His movies are totally awesome and haunting and I think he'll do justice to an attraction that guests have been dying to get into for years!

Sorry. You can take the Skipper out of the Jungle but you can't take the Jungle out of the Skip.

I think it deserves a great film too! If they can do it for Pirates, they can do it for HM!

Totally! And I really truly think del Toro is the guy to do it. He rocks. My friends and I were, long before this news came out, talking about how WE should direct a new HM movie, and we thought about having Ewan McGregor play Master Gracey and I can't remember who else we had picked out but we had like a whole cast already lined up for the film. I think we threw around the idea of Demi Moore for Madame Leota, and Christopher Lee or Ian McKellen as the Ghost Host, or that sort of character, because I'm not sure how the Ghost Host character would exactly fit.
