Comic Con 2012 Here We Come

July 19, 2011

There are already reports of 50 or so Twilight fans camping out alongside Hall H. Both Laura and Jen from the Lexicon staff are currently on route to San Diego to cover this year’s Comic Con. They will be setting up their tent, and it will be our remote office of sorts for the next two days or so. Here’s what you can expect from us by way of coverage:

Wednesday: Live blog from the plaza next to Hall H. You never know who might drop by!

Thursday: The Breaking Dawn Panel happens at 11:15 Pacific Time and runs roughly an hour. We will be live blogging the event assuming the Internet holds out. Taylor Lautner is also rumored to be stopping by the Lionsgate booth to promote his film Abduction, and we’ll stay on top of that!

Friday: We’ll be attending the panel for The River, a film that Joe Anderson who plays Allister will be appearing in. We also have a couple of interviews lined up this day, but more on that as it develops.

Saturday: We will live blog The Immortals panel featuring Kellan Lutz from 1:00-2:00. Right after that we hope to live blog the Snow White and the Huntsman panel that Kristen Stewart is scheduled for 3:30-4:15.

Laura will also have here movies.com column up on Thursday as soon after the panel concludes as is possible. Now in between all this we’ll be grabbing info on the fly because you never know what might happen. We’ll also be feeding out YA author, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Game of Thrones addictions while there.

Comic Con Schedules 2011: Breaking Dawn, Kellan Lutz, Taylor Lautner, and Kristen Stewart

July 9, 2011

Comic Con 2011 has now released their Thursday through Saturday schedules. Granted they are subject to change, and an actor might have to suddenly bow out if their filming schedule changes or have to do ADR work. But here is what we have so far. Kristen Stewart, Kellan Lutz, and Taylor Lautner will all be there to support other projects as well as Breaking Dawn.

Thursday

“11:15-12:15 The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1— Summit Entertainment presents a sneak peek at the highly anticipated next chapter of The Twilight Saga. This is a must see for fans interested in the story’s final chapters. You’ll see exclusive footage from The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part 1 and be treated to a filmmaker and cast Q&A session providing details on the first half of the epic two-part finale. Hall H ”

Abduction Panel and signing official info via the Lionsgate studio TBA. Below is what we have from The Hollywood Reporter (I’d give them a 90% accuracy rate going on past Twilight connected experience):

“The news you’ve all been waiting for: Taylor Lautner is going to Comic-Con.

Sure, we all suspected he was going to be part of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn panel but Lautner will also be on hand to promote his action thriller Abduction. He will be at the Lionsgate booth (#3729 for those of you trying to map out the San Diego Convention Center floor) for a signing Thursday, July 21.”

At this time we don’t know if the signing with Taylor will come before or after the Breaking Dawn Panel. If we had to go with our gut instinct, we’d probably bet on after because there will likely be a press conference that he is involved in running before.

Friday

Who Is Attending Comic Con 2011 From Twilight?

July 6, 2011

So far Summit hasn’t given out their official list yet. If we were betting people (and we are) we’d lay odds on Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Bill Condon. The trio and the director have pretty much been a pattern since the first Comic Con appearance. After that it depends on who has a free schedule, who is in town, etc.

We already know that two Twilight actors are going to be there promoting other projects:

Taylor Lautner will be there to promote Abduction. According to THR:

“The news you’ve all been waiting for: Taylor Lautner is going to Comic-Con.

Sure, we all suspected he was going to be part of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn panel but Lautner will also be on hand to promote his action thriller Abduction. He will be at the Lionsgate booth (#3729 for those of you trying to map out the San Diego Convention Center floor) for a signing Thursday, July 21.”

Kellan Lutz will be there to promote The Immortals (info from Immortals press release):

DATE: Saturday, July 23
1:00pm – 2:00pm: Comic-Con Panel in Hall H
2:30pm – 3:30pm: Official autograph signing at the Convention Center

GUESTS: Henry Cavill, Luke Evans, Kellan Lutz, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, Mickey Rourke, and producers Mark Canton and Gianni Nunnari”

Each day, we’ll take the cast of a beloved television series or movie and let you decide which Hogwarts house they’d draw.”

Teen Wolf vs. Jacob Black: Tyler Posey Sounds Off On Who Would Win

June 30, 2011

Tyler Posey is doing press in the UK for the MTV original show Teen Wolf that is about to debut in the UK. He talked with Metro UK about who might come out on top in a battle of the wolves.

“The biggest change, though, has also posed the greatest challenge – creating a wolf with brooding sex appeal amid all that hair. ‘We didn’t want him to look like a puppy,’ says Davis. ‘I always say the other shows have werewolves you can pet, we have ones you can kiss. They’re sexy but could rip your throat out.’

So does that mean the (currently single) Posey could trounce his buff Twilight rival Taylor Lautner in a fight? ‘You know, Taylor’s a cool dude,’ says Posey gallantly. ‘I think he’s got me beat right now in the fitness region. But in a werewolf fight? He actually turns into a full-on wolf and I turn into this half-man, half-werewolf creature. I dunno – I would have opposable thumbs, so maybe that would win, as he’s got paws. Maybe I could use them to gouge his eyes out.”

See more on Metro UK.

Have you watched the Teen Wolf reboot on MTV? What do you think of the show?
