Westworld comes to San Diego

29 JUNE 2017

Remember a few years ago when we'd hope for news of Westworld at SDCC - and it seemed like it was delayed forever? Now here we are with a first season behind us and what sounds like a great experience coming to Comic-Con.

It is immersive because of course it is, and it promises "a taste of the luxuries and liberties afforded to Westworld guests." Presumably that doesn't mean guns or robot brothels but - well, I'm not sure what else there could be in the "Westworld Experience Center." I guess we'll find out. And let's not kid ourselves, we're all going to line up for this because you know it's going to be cool.

By the way, the Westworld panel is not on Friday to accompany Game of Thrones but on Saturday in Hall H at 4:15. Autographs follow at 5:45 in the WB booth; the drawing for that will take place that morning.

So bust out your best Maeve and Hector cosplay and be ready for violent delights with violent ends. And launch your Westworld application to track the latest updates on this.

HBO will have 4 SDCC panels

29 JUNE 2016

HBO is bringing your favorite startup to Comic-Con this year, along with a few other shows you just may have heard of.


Silicon Valley

Pied Piper and its beleaguered crew will be in the Indigo Ballroom on Thursday at 4:00 pm. No TJ Miller or Matt Ross, sadly, but Zach Woods, Amanda Crew, Thomas Middleditch, Martin Starr and Kumail Nanjiani will be there. Autographs at 5:30.


Game of Thrones

HBO's other show about power, wealth and ingenuity will be at the Con; Game of Thrones is back in Hall H on Friday at 2:15. Samwell, Sansa, Hodor, Varys, Ramsay Bolton, Bran, Ser Davos, The Waif, and Missandei will answer your questions. No Ser Pounce, though. Autographs at 4:15.


Vice Principals

This is on Saturday in the Horton Grand Theatre at 2:30 pm. Producers Jody Hill and Danny McBride and cast member Walton Goggins, with moderator Matt Mira. Autographs at 6 pm. I realize this is the least known of all these shows, but it's worth looking into if you're curious.


Outcast

Also Saturday in 6BCF at 5:15. Robert Kirkman, Chris Black, Patrick Fugit, Wrenn Schmidt, Brent Spiner, Reg E. Cathey, Philip Glenister. Autograph signing at 4:15.

There isn't a panel here that isn't going to thrill a big group of people.
