Trailer has been leaked (crappy cam quality) and if this trailer is any indication, Smallville MUST have gotten a major budget increase:

It's difficult to tell but I see many new locations, some really good special effects, etc. Again, I have to see a better version of the trailer to really tell for sure but it looks like there is even Krypton scenes or something in there. Really really amazing trailer here. :D



ARRRRGH!!!! THey made it private!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Now that the Con is over, let the whining about moving it to some other horrible location (i.e. Las Vegas) begin, just like every other year :lol

I'm sure you'd all LOVE to head to Vegas in the middle of August.

"Oh my god! Oh my god! I'll only get to see this once! Oh my god! And so will all the people around me! Oh my god! But I want to be the center of attention, so I'll keep talking over the video! Oh my god! See how excited I am everybody? Oh my god! What did he say, I couldn't hear it because I was too busy talking. Oh my god!"

Here's a different video, that you can also view in HD.

Audio isn't as good, but the screaming fangirl is gone.

How is Twilight any less worthy of being there than the other properties? It's a fantasy novel slash romance novel. Who cares.

They aren't much different from the overweight social outcast comic/anime/whatever fans who are stinking up the halls too
It's not that twilight was there that was such a huge problem, it was that Twilight was given WAY WAY to much space and time over other properties that deserved it more. There was something like 5 Twilight Panels while most stuff only had 1..... Harry Potter had 1 when it was @ Con.

I'm pretty sure, for better or for worse, Twilight brought in a whole lot of people that would not have come to the con and spent the money for a ticket otherwise. Something like Iron Man or Avatar doesn't really effect anything, if they're not there, the people that would have seen those panels would still have come to the con. Twilight people aren't interested in anything else except MAYBE Harry Potter.

You're forgetting that NONE of these movies should be there. It's called COMIC con. I imagine a lot of big comic fans that don't give a shit about Tron or whatever Disney is coming up are pissed that the con has turned into a movie con. They probably sound like you. :D

Pretty sure Con sells out with or w/out Twilight being there :p and while there is other stuff that possibly shouldn't be at Con there was nothing even close to being universally hated as Twilight and the Twilight fans @ Con, there was a booth selling Twilight sucks clothing and posters, and by Sunday dozens of people walking around holding up "Twilight ruined Con" signs.

It had Teen Zod in it. The only correct response is seething hatred. If it has just been regular-kind Zod, I'd have screamed like a fangirl. Zod was never a teenager, he popped straight out of a kryptonian vagine with a sweet beard and a bad attitude.

Not sure what you mean. Zod has been a part of this series for years and that trailer was 2004 times hotter than anything so far. :D

Then my successful ignoring of it redoubled my bafflement at why Superman having a costume this year is somehow amazing.

It looks like shit. He is all emo'd out. The whole point of Smallville and Superboy were Clark's youthful adventures. Making things dark/black takes the spirit out of the character and it feels weird to introduce Clark to every character he ever will be involved with later in his life. Just give me a Superman show already. It will boost ratings significantly.
