Talkin' Comic-Con: A Cup O' Tea with An Englishman In San Diego (28th February 2016, 1000 PT / 1300 ET / 1800 GMT) Google+ Event page: https://plus.google.com/events/cs858t4088hg8osnmt9t94s3oe0 YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CTd9-rGvqc ~~ MOVIES AND COMIC-CON ~~ Sunday 28th saw the biggest day in the Hollywood calendar, when the beautiful people of the silver screen bestowed the shiniest of baubles on each other - the 88th Academy Awards! Movies and San Diego Comic-Con have had a long and fractured relationship over the years; comic purists feel that that Hollywood has overtaken their own party while it can't be denied that the presence of cinema glitterati has been a strong element in the events growth and success, from a very early time. With the biggest panels of the world's premiere 'Celebration Of Pop Culture' occupying the largest rooms, drawing the longest lines and filling the most column spaces of the world's media, Leonard, Alyssa and special guest Russ Burlingame (comicbook.com) talk about the presence of movies at Comic-Con - who benefits, who loses and whether SDCC could even continue without the Hollywood presence. ------------------------------------------------ TALKIN' COMIC-CON: A CUP O' TEA WITH AN ENGLISHMAN IN SAN DIEGO is the weekly San Diego Comic-Con Hangout On Air taking place every Sunday (6pm GMT / 10am PT / 1pm ET) and hosted by Leonard Sultana. Each week, the best bloggers on t'web talk about San Diego Comic-Con, about con & pop culture and, for an hour or so, we invite guests to talk to us and get nerdy and geeky about everything that orbits the Best Pop Culture Convention On The Planet!
