For the first time ever, Lucasfilm's annual song and dance, known as the "Spectacular," will air on cable's G4 July 25 at 2 p.m. ET/PT. Hosted by Olivia Munn and Kevin Pereira, who also host "Attack of the Show," it will precede a live feed from the convention at 4 p.m.. I think what will happen is the presentation will be on Friday as it usually is and taped for airing on Saturday. Hey, I just might turn up on camera. Or, maybe Olivia Munn will put on her Slave Leia costume and Megan Fox will make good on her threat to wear hers, and they will wrestle in Jell-O for the fanboys.
What's actually planned is a Q&A session with Dave Filoni that will include questions submitted in advance through G4's website and a live script read through with most of the main cast of CW. Other crazy stuff will occur, I'm sure.
Moreover, Lucasfilm will unleash the opportunity for fans to unload their life stories for a new project. It's similar to Steven Spielberg's projects for Holocaust survivors and World War II veterans. I had no idea SW fans were dying at a rate of a thousand a day. Anyway, fans can not only submit their own videos expounding on how much they hate Jar Jar and George Lucas for raping their childhoods, they can also do it at Comic Con this year. I hope tobe a voice of sanity participate if able. Of course, they may take one look at me and go, "Not that effin' @##$#."
Nerfherders Anonymous posted a list of SW guests slated to appear at Comic Con. Aside from the previously mentioned Mark Hamill, James Arnold Taylor, and Dave Filoni, the guest roster also includes several CW cast members: Ashley Eckstein, Matt Lanter, and Catherine Taber. Taylor is signing at the Fan Club breakfast and likely at the con itself. If the rest of the cast also signs at the con, I am going to be one VERY broke fangirl. Maybe I can find a picture with all of the main CW characters on it and get them all to sign it.
