Comic Con 2010 Wrap Up: Day 2

So you may be wondering how I fared on Friday after my crazy rockstar night on Thursday. To be quite honest, I don’t know how I made it through the day. In fact, I’m pretty sure I almost hurled while waiting on a street corner for friends. But I strapped on my big girl panties and soldiered on!

First on our to-do list? Another Tron: Legacy press event. We made our way to Flynn’s Arcade after breakfast at The Broken Yolk. That’s right, Flynn’s Arcade. They had transformed what I figure was an abandoned storefront into the legendary arcade that houses the Tron game. They really went all out for this one and had us walk through a dark tunnel where we entered an insane room covered in futuristic strip lighting. To our pleasant surprise, all the actors were just casually hanging out (minus Jeff Bridges). We walked around the room, admiring all the details before Rosy decided to get Michael Sheen’s (Underworld, Frost/Nixon, Twilight) attention and I’m so glad she did. He is quite possibly the most delightful person we met on this trip. He willingly gave us these awesome giant bear hugs (I love hugs) and kisses and was just such a joy to be around. I really just wanted to pack him into my pocket and take him home. So if you are out there, Michael Sheen, let me know if that’s possible.

Comic Con 2010 Wrap Up: Day 1

Hello, everyone! I’m back from Comic-Con and have been thrusted back into reality. I have to say, I had a pretty amazing time, especially since this year was a little different: I attended as press, helping my good friend and fellow blogger, Rosy, from Accidental Sexiness (check it out!). This pass allowed us entry into certain pressrooms as well as access to the front of ballrooms to get photos during panels.

It was such a great learning experience. I hope to be able to attend more events like these in the near future so I can share them on Melificent. I was able to meet a lot of great contacts and I have a very good feeling about the future of the blog.

Melificent is officially on vacation!!!!!!!

Taken at last year's Con

I’ll be at the Smashing Pumpkins show (!!!)  on Tuesday, so come say hi if you’ll be there too, and then I’ll be on my way to San Diego for Comic-Con! I am beyond excited and especially can’t wait to share my experiences with all upon my return.

Unfortunately, this means that Melificent will be experiencing radio silence until next week. However, if you follow me on Twitter, I will be trying my best to live tweet the entire experience or at least until my cell runs out of battery.  😉

Ciao!

ps; Go watch Inception!

Lovable Friday!

I’ve always been a big fan of Christopher Nolan’s work ever since I saw Memento (one of my top 10 movies of all time), so you can imagine how excited I was when I first saw the trailer for Inception a couple of months ago. I think the hubs and I were rendered speechless after it came on during a random commercial break. Talk about orgasmic visuals! Plus, I really dig the concept of creating, controlling and implanting dreams especially after all those lectures on Jung during my schooling. And Mr. Nolan could not have collected a better or more talented cast to tell his story. I have to be honest, I haven’t been this excited for a movie in a long time (all the silly Twilight-ness doesn’t count). I got my tickets – did you?

Cosmopolitan Summer Splash

Last night I was fortunate enough to be invited to the Cosmopolitan Summer Splash at the gorgeous Setai hotel in South Beach by fellow South Florida blogger, Rosy Cordero of Accidental Sexiness. This event is one of many during Miami’s Fashion Week. It was a pretty cool opportunity for me for many reasons: 1) I had never been to the highly regarded Setai (which lives up to the hype), 2) I had never been to a “big-girl” fashion show before and 3) it would be the first time I attended an event where I could network for Melificent!
