Comic-Con in San Diego Strikes Again with Movies, Series, DVDs, Panels, & the Masquerade Ball !

If you are attending Comic-Con in San Diego, you are going to be blitzed harder than Disneyland in the summer with stuff to see, do, attend — and walk away with.
Star Trek

At the Paramount Home Entertainment booth fans can:
be photographed at the helm of the Enterprise;
fraternize with galactic green girls;
enter to win a limited edition Captain’s chair
All this to build anticipation for the DVD and Blu-ray debut of Star Trek.
Trekkies can “multiply” their fun by picking up a Tribble at the PHE booth and submitting images of themselves and their furry friend at the exclusive Tribble Gallery on CBS-BDLive.com
Dreamworks

Get a 3D photo with B.O.B., the gelatinous hero from DreamWorks Animation’s smash hit Monsters vs Aliens.

Comedy Central
The co-creators and stars of Comedy Central’s irreverent hit “Drawn Together” are participating in an animated panel Thursday, July 23 from 7:00-8:00 p.m. in Room 6BCF.
