The First Panel

One of the main draws to a convention like this is the pop culture aspect - specifically the draw of the movies. We started the day by going to the panel in Room H - "the big hall". Unfortunately there was a fall just before it began and we ended up standing in line, in the sun, with a few thousand other people, for about an hour. When that happens you just stand around and talk to the folks around you. We were in line with a charming lady who was a small part actress (Jennifer M.). She was nice. Immediately in front of us was a baptist church group, a nice couple (the adults) and some teen girls wanting to see the "Twilight" panel. We finally got in and saw the panels for "The Day The Earth Stood Still" (Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connolly), "Max Payne" (Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis), and "Marvel Origins: Wolverine" (Hugh Jackman in an unscheduled appearance with clips from the movie that is not due for another nine months.) Well worth the wait to see the clips of all the movies. The day continues... Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
