For all of you LOTR fans and fans of graphic novels, aka comic books, Peter Jackson, pictured above, is finally going to attend Comic-con on July 24th of this year. Many of his films have been hyped at previous Comic-cons, so I am sure the attendance will swell past it's usual 100,000.
It is also possible that several other mega-famous directors will be there promoting their films amongst the die-hard fans of graphic novels, many of which are plugging films that show these pulp icons on the larger than life screen. It is said that James Cameron may possibly be there to promote Avatar and that Summit Entertainment will surely make an appearance to promote New Moon, the follow-up to the hit Twilight.

May inspiration and creativity be with you!
Any word on whether or not The Hobbit is in the works for film?!! I sure hope so!
ReplyDeleteThere has been so much back and forth about "The Hobbit" I am not too sure, last I read it was going into production, but I think they are keep a tight rein on publicity or information leaking at the moment. My guess is Christmas time, all the big releases happen in the summertime and Christmas time, since, this is when the largest amount of people have the freetime or make the time to go out to the movies.
