Sister Emma’s Confessions: SDCC’s “longest running panel” offers quite The Proposal

Warning: Although Dark Knight Rises was absolutely phenomenal and Con has now come and gone, this blogazine isn't without it's Lost Files. So, here 'tis. Expect extreme schmaltz and sentimentality ahead. It appears somehow fitting that as I planted myself in a coffee shop to begin writing this article that I was accosted by a bum in search of …

Sister Emma’s Confessions: The Not So Dark Knight

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oso3rrtcs1M Bless me followers, for I have sinned. It has been two weeks since my last confession. Between actually attending Comic-Con, writing coverage of said event (I swear I have another article somewhere...) and the recovery period that necessarily follows any event of such enormity and optical stimulation, this young sister found herself laying abed …

Comic-Con: Move over, Joe — God got THIS.

That suspense is what makes this terrific team so enjoyable to watch, and just as magnificent in their first-ever Comic Con appearance. Bryan …

SDCC Day 3: WB’s sweeping Epics provide plenty of shivers and.. snuffles.

Yes that I did. Though we’re pretty sure the majority of you heard about the superfan driven to tears by the latest Superman: Man of Steel trailer last Saturday at Comic Con, it’d be a sin not to admit this reverend did the same. The heart-clenching teaser shed a sense of human fear for the unknown, …

SDCC: Tournament of Spectacle, Logic, and Strawberry Milkshakes!

Saturday night, post-convention floor hours, pre-party time, in the YouTube Lounge on 7th St., nerds from around the world (okay, more like a lot of die hard fans from L.A. and a few people from other parts of the U.S.) gathered in the limited seating, ample standing room zone by the cramped stage to witness …
