Star Wars Panel, 5:30-6:30 pm, Hall H

[sefton42]

I feel overwhelmed just reading this and imagining the madness of the camp out scene.

Yes, focus on the madness of camping out you will, so get in line, you will not.

Something other than SW has to be in Hall H on Friday. My guess is they remain in there on Friday and it's going to be the most insane Friday ever at SDCC!! It's a bit exciting to be honest.

Where will the hall h line for friday even form with the thursday line still in progress?

[epicskyline]

I wonder if they'll remain on Friday, but move back to B20. CCI does like us to make hard choices.

If they do, there's not many more slots to fill up in B20 that day. Already it looks like:

10:00-11:00 - Big Bang Theory
11:15-12:15 - ?
12:30-1:30 - The 100
1:45-2:45 - Minority Report
3:00-4:15 - ? (Some kind of pilot + panel? Maybe Marvel TV group panel or Netflix group panel?)
4:30-5:30 - The Originals
5:45-6:45 - iZombie
7:00-8:00 - ?

So there's still slots available in the room, but not many. It also just seems weird picturing those two sandwiched between the other mid-popularity TV show panels.

Hmm, I think you're right. I hadn't gone back and cross-referenced what was already in B20 that day.

[epicskyline]

iZombie is a must-see for me, so I've been checking B20 obsessively. 

[FlamedLiquid]

They should move either walking dead or game of thrones to thursday in hall h if not both and make Friday all movie panels.

I completely agree. They can easily fit in 5-6 big panels in Hall H in one day. Star Wars is just one. GoT and TWD are 2 (or 3, if Fear:TWD is a separate panel). That still leaves extra room for other things.

I suspect Friday will just be a monster day in Hall H.

I think Heroes Reborn will get one of those Friday slots.  I heard Zachary Levi needed someone to cover for him at Nerd HQ on Friday(Alan Tudyk is) and he's in Heroes Reborn.  If that's true, Heroes Reborn could either be 11:15 or 3PM.

IMO--the smartest thing they could do with the Star Wars panel on Friday is make it the first panel of the day.  At least part of the room may clear for other panels after it and allow those fans in.

One of those B20 Friday slots could also be for   Dark Horse/Joss Whedon which is usually there on Fridays.

Also, does anyone else think it's funny that Star Wars was the first official movie announcement?  Lucasfilm/Disney is basically telling all the studios going on Saturday that they're going to have to pull out all the stops.

[Andrew Costa Mesa]

Hopefully they'll repeat the wristband system and at least one of us will get in line Thursday afternoon in which I will join too that evening, unless Thursday is a slow day in which I'll get in line earlier.

Regrettably this will mean I'll have to miss the MTV2 Fandom Awards at Petco scheduled for that evening.  Sometimes you have to choose between two events, meaning you'll have to sacrifice one.

Well that would have been good to do with Marvel on Saturdays too, but they kept it as the last panel. So I wouldn't count on the scheduling being "smart" 

I am excited to watch the Hall H line madness from my hotel window, and attend significantly less crowded Thursday and Friday panels/events!

They had a great panel at WonderCon this year, so I don't have to see at SDCC , but you never know how things work out

[Miss Kitty]

I think they are starting to line up already.....I hear the nerd herd storming the convention center now....

Last years iZombie panel was great...and so easy to get into.
Fingers crossed its half as easy this year.
