Cillian in Comic-Con International 2004

[Jo]

I am utterly upset that I won't be able to attend this. But if anyone does, please take LOTS of pictures of him and with him!


Friday, July 23, 2004 12:30-2:00 Warner Bros.: Batman Begins and Constantine—Warner Bros. presents looks at two of the most eagerly awaited comic adaptations of all time! First up: Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight’s emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his parents’ murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high-tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city. Participating in the panel are actor Cillian Murphy (Dr. Jonathan Crane) and screenwriter David Goyer. They will also sign autographs in the DC Comics booth after the event.

I can't go either. My best friend lives in San Diego but of course, I have to deal with important stuff like working. lol Plus, another fave of mine is going to be there on the same day. Keanu Reeves.

I'm really surprised he's going to be there. It doesn't seem like something he'd do.

i'm so sad that i'm on the other side of the country and can't go to the comic book convention. hmm my friend made a good point though. she said he's farther away from me in san diego than when he's in ireland or england...lol

I just absolutely love this show. Has anyone else seen it?

In this week's show they displayed snippets from the Comic-Con, making fun of the attendees and showed a very, very brief, more like nanoseconds of Cillian signing autographs. I had about fell of my chair when I thought I saw him. VH1 repeats the show over the weekend so I watched it again and sure enough it was him.

Okay, that was kind of geeky of me to watch the second time around. The show's good though. ;D

I wish I went now .....

when it came to signing photo's etc..I probably would've tripped up and crashed into the table knocking cillian out by accident ....nursing shoes akimbo ...

[Jo]

I would've flung myself to grab hold of a shoe.

[gracey]

Jo darling you crack me up!!!!!!!

If I ever meet him I'll take him to payless ...my treat

[Jo]

Thank god I have my own office and the door is closed because your signature "I love a man in nursing shoes" just about killed me with laughter. ;D

[gracey]

god love ya!

True though

[lavender]

nursing shoes? What are you talking about?

[gracey]

Check out the 'about cillian' discussions...there's a thread about the shoes in there!!!!

Sorry to confuse you all you must think we've gone a bit mad

Hey gals, just thought I'd tag this link as I don't think I'd seen this report of the Comic Con panel before - it has a fair whack of quotes from Cillian & David Goyer about the film:
