San Diego Comic-Con: Part 2

Ok, so where were we - ah yes, upstairs. I should probably take this opportunity to mention that I don't write these blogs in chronological order, so it's entirely possible that you might see me in a Batman shirt in one pic, a slightly different Batman shirt in another pic, and me and Charlton Heston kickin' back while enjoying some Billy Beer in another pic. That was a historical joke, kids. DeLorean jokes are so passe.

Let's kick off part 2 with an interesting experiment, namely the Do's and Do Not's of wearing a Princess Leia Slave Girl costume at con.

DO:Be hot.

DO NOT:

Not be hot.


Class dismissed.


And as long as I'm making fun of people who put time, money and love into their homemade costumes...This is a very accurate representation of Spider-Man from issue 479 where he fights his greatest foe, Type II diabetes. Zing! Still with me? Okay let's do another one...

This is Six and Baltar if Six was actually Boomer. Let's think about this. You're an Asian girl. You're a Battlestar fan. You want to dress up in a Battlestar costume for Con, so what's your natural choice? If you said Boomer, the hot Asian female, you're wrong! No, the natural choice would be Six, the hot, blonde, caucasian woman. Look, I'm not saying this girl can't dress up as whoever she wants, I just think there was a better choice for her. You don't see me walking around dressed up like Sherman Helmsely. Not after Halloween '84, anyway.


This chick knows the score.



This is Evil-Lyn, looking at me with dead eyes that say "You better not take this picture back to New York with you and show it to your girlfriend, who will recognize me as a girl she went to college with named Emily and send me mocking text messages making fun of my poor life choices that led me to pose with nerds for money. I can't believe I went to college for this."


I've got to give this guy credit. He didn't come to Con dressed up as Chewbacca, he came to Con dressed up as PETER MAYHEW! That does it, next year I'm coming as Kenny Baker.

This is the movie exec who green lit The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, wandering the floor looking for a delicious baby to eat. Looks like he found one, so I guess we can look forward to Uptown Girls 2: Uptownier.


This guy came dressed up as Jonathan Frakes.

And here's an image to cleanse your palette for the next installment...
Two hot chicks and one smokin' hot dude.

Tune in to Part 3 for more unwarranted name-calling and a special appearance by the lady who did the voice of E.T.! Or not...


Trap Jaw commands you!
