Flickr Costume Group Review

I have decided to start reviewing the costume groups I contribute to on Flickr. I am going to start with Unknown Cosplay Characters. The idea is that you add photos to this group when you do not know the character. The is great because this is a problem I have all the time. Often I get a clue after a few days. It is really useful.

Watchmen: Silk Spectre

One last thought about the Watchmen movie. It is not a bad movie, but it is a disappointing movie. One of the reasons it is disappointing things to me is that the promotional materials for the movie gave me more of what I wanted than the movie did. Just look at the New Frontiersman website. Look at the flickr account and youtube account for the movie. The things on these accounts were brilliant. I hope we get more of this stuff on the DVD

Wonder Con 2009

Yesterday Kate and I went to Wonder Con 2009. It was packed. There were more people than last year or the year before. Wonder if this is a sign of the economy or not. At $15 a person it can be cheap for a full day of entertainment. I did not go to the Watchmen or Star Trek panel. They were both packed and I do not need any extra convincing to see those movies. I spent my whole day walking the floor and taking photos. That is a pretty good day to me.

Here are my Wonder Con Highlights.

Ran into Twelve people I know. Eight of them this is the first time I have seen them in 2009.

Kate bought a Charlie and Humphrey T-shirt

Met the three guys from the iFanboy podcast

Told the Honky Tonk man that I loved seeing him get beat up in the ring. He smiled back at me.

Saw a girl in a Flying Spaghetti Monster Costume, but did not take her photo because she was having lunch.

Ran into someone who knows me by name only through my flickr costume photos.

We bought two I Heart Guts stickers for Kate's new laptop.

Ran into Paul Horn and Stephen Notley. Neither of them has anything new for me to buy from them.
