I watched the Aquaman pilot on plane ride from Los Angeles to Cleveland. You know, I kind of liked it. But of course I would, since it’s Powers of Matthew Star. Okay, let’s put some spoiler warnings up because it’s going to be impossible to talk about this without revealing stuff. So, if you want [...]

So it’s just about all over now. Today’s Friday, and in a few hours, I go to LAX to fly back home. I’m writing this as I have so many other blogs from the lovely pool area of the Best Western Hotel on the Sunset Strip. The weather’s finally broken, and it’s a cool, breezy [...]

This was sent to me by my buddy Mike. It’s Neal McDonough’s IMDB entry: Neal McDonough was trained at the London Academy of Dramatic Arts and Sciences. His theatre credits include ‘Cheap Talk’, ‘Foreigner’, ‘As You Like It’, ‘Rivals’, ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, ‘Bald Soprano’, and ‘Waiting for Lefty’. The young actor won a 1991 [...]

Okay, I swear I am not making this up. Bob, Roger and I were driving down Sunset Boulevard in our rental car, a nifty little convertible PT Cruiser. I was behind the wheel and the top was down (of course), when we pull up to a stoplight and this car pulls alongside of us and [...]

It’s the end of the Con as I know it. And I feel fine. Last night, I got the chance to go to the Animation Writers’ party, where I ran into some ran into some old friends and made some new ones. My friend Charlotte is my ticket into these things, and we work pretty [...]

The Con itself wasn’t bad on Friday. Really. No problems. Of course, I made sure to come over an hour after it opened just to be sure. Stiill, the Con stayed out of my way, and I stayed out of its. It’s also one of those days that I can’t really talk about. Some really [...]

My Mom always said if you couldn’t say something nice about someone, don’t say anything at all. So, last night after the Con… Nah, I can’t take the high road. I’ll just put it in perspective. In terms of all the problems San Diego Con has caused me, today was the least of them. They [...]

Okay, maybe a little more relaxing before the show. Wednesday is Preview Night at the show, the time when the convention decides to start right about the time you want to eat dinner, and end right about the time you don’t feel hungry any more. Actually, it’s a great weight loss plan. As such, we [...]

Today was a free day in the big convention week. I’d flown in to LA yesterday, where buddy Bob already was. He flies in a couple days early to do some extra LA stuff as well as go to Disney. So he and I went to Downtown Disney (Hey, there was a lot of Pirates [...]

Sometimes you just know it’s going to be a weird trip. I’m headed out to San Diego for the increasingly innaccurately named Comic-Con International. It’s not so much that it isn’t international, it’s that it doesn’t have much to do with comics anymore. Oh, there are a bunch of us there, but look at the [...]
