THE SPIRIT Panel News Comic Con 2008
THE SPIRIT was actually a very exciting panel, they showed us two clips from the movie in addition to the already released trailer (which you can watch here).
- When explaining the wardrobe and character of Samuel L. Jackson, they called it the "black nazi."
- The Eva Mendes as Sand Saref scene shown is supposed to be underwater, but since it's a nightmare to actually film underwater, they used a new Phantom camera instead which shoots 1000 fps (frames per second).
- Even though the scene mentioned above is in slow motion, Eva Mendes had to act really fast while shooting.
- Eva Mendes actually broke all the nails on her hand while shooting this scene.
- The second scene shown was a fight scene between Gabriel Macht as The Spirit and Samuel L. Jackson as Octopus. They both use props in the scene which were created by Frank Miller.
- In that scene, The Octopus smashes The Spirit on the head with a toilet and then says "Come on, toilets are always funny."
- The Octopus also uses a giant wrench in the scene which led Samuel L. Jackson to say "I always wanted to hit someone with a giant wrench."
- The fight scene was in the mud which made each actor gain 6lbs because the mud was sticking to their clothes.
- That scene took about one week to film.

MAX PAYNE Panel Video Comic Con 2008
I had to share this video with you from the MAX PAYNE panel at Comic Con because Mark Wahlberg speaks some Russian which cracks up Mila Kunis (who is Russian). It's really funny. Check it out below.

KNOWING Pictures Comic Con 2008 Panel
Here are some pictures from the KNOWING panel at Comic Con 2008. Appearing was only director Alex Proyas.
Knowing stars Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, but they weren't there to talk about the movie. This is probably the movie I am the least excited about from Comic Con. But I'm still going to see it, which is a testament to how good the movies at Comic Con were this year. More info on Knowing coming soon.
TWILIGHT Panel Video Comic Con 2008
One of the craziest panels at Comic Con, was definitely the TWILIGHT panel. As you can tell from the videos below, I almost lost my hearing with all these screaming people.
I am a huge fan of Twilight, but I just didn't feel the need to scream because I actually wanted to hear what the panel had to say, but oh well.
Appearing at the panel were Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Cam Gigandet, Rachelle Lafevre, Edie Gathegi, Taylor Lautner, author Stephenie Meyer, and director Catherine Hardwicke. We did learn a few things about the movie, which I will recap soon, and they also showed a long clip of the scene between James and Edward (which was pretty awesome), but for now check out three videos from the panel. (You can also check out pictures from the panel here and here.)
Enjoy!
TERMINATOR SALVATION Pictures Comic Con 2008 Panel
Check out pictures from the TERMINATOR SALVATION panel at Comic Con 2008. Appearing at the panel director McG, Sam Worthington, Moon Bloodgood, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Common.
This was a very exciting panel and the preview they showed looked really good. The next best thing would have been for Christian Bale to be at the panel, I would have loved to hear him talk about it, but that said I cannot wait to see him as John Connor.
Check out pictures from the panel below. Keep an eye out for videos and more news coming up.
