Well, Universal Dork has yet another special treat for the loyal followers. Having access to the 2009 San Diego Comic-con allows for a wide variety of things, exclusive movie trailers and previews, TV pilots, Celeb/Creator panels, comics, art, video games, toys…and on and on. But one of the most heralded and timeless aspects of the Comic-con are the attendee’s costumes.
Well, this was my first year attending the Comic-con but the level of participation in donning of costumes met my expectations. So it is with great please that Universal Dork brings you the Best Dressed of San Diego Comic-con 2009. Loyal readers, please keep in mind that approximately 150,000 people were expected at this year’s Comic-con over the course of 4 days, so this is Universal Dorks snippet of the samplings.
And the Best Costumes are…. (Drum Roll Please!) pldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldtpldt

For those of you still feeling a little let-down by last year’s Hulk film, Marvel recently announced something that should help for a little while, at least:
Planet Hulk! The animated adaptation of the insanely popular storyline of the same name, will be hitting theaters in February 2010. All of the Illuminati-deceiving, Miek-evolving and Skaar-baby-making action we loved from the comics set to move before our eyes! Check out this trailer, released by Capcom:

Fellow Universal Dorks, let’s return to a day back in June, June 16th of 2009 to be exact…where Universal Dork authored the blog entitled 4 Horror flicks you didn’t know you were excited for! In particular the movie Trick r’ Treat was called out for a movie that you want to add to your list. Well friends, Universal Dork has pushed to the frontlines of Dorkness and is represented at the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con International, and last night there was an pre-viewing of TRICK R’ TREAT!

StarWars.com has recently revealed the cover for their Halloween ’09 horror release: Deathtroopers
Although, details on what exactly it’s about remain unknown (and likely will until Comic Con), the cover has me super-excited. Horror has long been a missing ingredient from the Star Wars universe. A universe where “blast-marks” are, for the most part, our only evidence of death at another’s hands.
I’m also loving the cover’s suggestion of this being set around original trilogy era, rather than yet another prequel trilogy yarn. Kudos to the neck-guts and cords coming out the bottom of the helmet!
