WonderCon programming always pales in comparison to Comic-Con’s, but this year seems especially underwhelming. Honestly, YouTube has ruined going to these things for me. Still up for a weekend of geeking out. It’s a good year to be a Star Trek or Star Wars fan!
First and foremost – how the heck are the Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill signings going to work??! Carrie Fisher (1307- Sat/Sun only) and Mark Hamill (1408)
Friday
I never make it to Friday. I’ll go to pick up my badge, and see if I can get into Wonder Woman late. Esplanade
Saturday
11:30-12:30 Street Fighter IV – Room 103 (may not go, to get into Esplanade)
2:00-2:45 Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Entertainment: Star Trek – Esplanade
3:30-4:30 Disney•Pixar: UP – Esplanade
4:30-5:30 Warner Bros: Terminator Salvation — Esplanade
Esplanade is going to smell *horrendous* – we might give up everything to try to get autographs. Who knows.
