    All people who are going are so fortunate. I don't know what the Comic Con is but it sounds interesting. And the reporter that said Avatar is boring must be brain dead. I mean, come on. Avatar. Boring?

    She wasn't a reporter, it was Morgan Webb, co-host of the show X-play which is probably the only show on G4 that anyone should even consider watching. I don't want to sound like a fanboy or anything, but she is one of the smartest women on the planet. Unfortunately, show and her co-host, who-gives-a-crap-about-his-name, can be quite arrogant due to their I-know-everything-in-the-freakin-world-ness and very hard to please. And like all bad taste comedians, they feel it necessary to make fun of everyone and everything, save a few favorites. But the way I see it, if they know enough about the show to make fun of it, Avatar must be getting pretty popular in the world. ...Or they simple hate the anime nature of the show, did I mention that they hate anime? Particularly fans of Full Metal Alchemists, Yugiho (don't know how its spelled) and DBZ? That might have somthing to do with it too.



    Hehe, I'd have to agree with you on that. XD

    Though I like X-Play, and think it's cool that more gals are knowledgable gamers,
    I wish that X-Play, specifically Morgen Webb, wouldn't just insert their personal preferences and opinions to what makes an animated show have value.

    So guys, I guess this is fair warning to any loyal avatar fans not to spam or spew mindless hate mail to the X-Play message boards when they review/preview Avatar/the Avatar games. kay? It'll just make 'em poke more hate towards Avatar even more. XP

    They're used to that kinda stuff anyway. Hence the Fullmetal Alchemists fans reference. Besides, I don't think they've watched the show enough to truly hate it, but simply enough to take a quick jab at it like they usually do with everything. ...Oh my God, I can not wait for their preview/review of the Avatar game! Let's face it, we've all seen the trailer by now and know it looks like crap, and quite frankly we all expected no less from THQ (or a game based on an anime-ish show for that matter)??. But these guys are gonna take that and twist it so much that... where do I start? To put it simply, it won't be pretty. I just hope it'll be closer to their review of the Teen Titans game than those Naruto games.

    At first I just wanted to see if I could buy some Avatar stuff at Comic-con, but being able to see the cast would be AWESOME!!! I wonder if people are gonna dress up like Sokka or Zuko. A girl better do her hair and clothes like Katara so that I can get a picture with her.

    It's actually from 10:30am-12:00pm and it is a sneak of a collection of toons. New Spongebob, New Catscratch, New X's, and the new DP special Urban Jungle, as well as the Avatar movie.

    asmzine.com will likely be covering the event and hopefully will have pics and the preview. It would be even better if someone would tape the preview (wink, wink) and post it on Youtube for us all to see

    Then call me a geek, because I love two of those shows: Avatar and Danny Phantom! I guess I don't really care what people think of me...but that doesn't matter, cause I don't think I'll be able to go anyways. X_x Oh well.

    Well like I said asmzine.com, who provided a lot of spoilers (although did release the wrong name of Zuko's sister - they pegged her as Zula, and everybody thought I was crazy by saying it was Azula) at last year's event should be there this year, although there's nothing on their site yet. But as long as we get the info I'm good (it's about a day and a half away!).
