What You Probably Won?t See at Comic-Con 2009b>

Now that the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday schedules have been announced for th2009 San Diego Comic-Con Internationalb>, lets take a look at some of the films that won?t be making an appearance at the conventioUniversal will not be flying out the cast and crewEdgar Wright?s Scott Pilgrim vs. The Worldld, which makes almost no sense since they'll probably be on a weekend break in Canada. (Update: I have been informed that the movie is shooting 6-day weeks, and coming to Comic-Con would mean a 2-day break from filming). Comic-Con would be the perfect place to get the buzz started on the big screen adaptation of this awesome indie comic book. Universal will also not be showing or presenting anythingRidley Scott?s Robin HoodHooDisneysney is spending too much time on the 3D and animated films that they?ve completely forgotten to bring the live actPrince of Persia: Sands of Timef The Sorcerer?s ApprenticeprentiSurrogatesrrogates (which was based on a comic book) to the cThe Weinstein Costein Co isn?Quentin Tarantino?s Inglourious Basterds us Basterds (Comic-Con seems like a better venue than UFC), nor areob Zombie?s Halloween II< Halloween II (which had a presence the first time around), the post apocalyptic dramatic thriller The Road, the big screen adaptation of Youth in Revolt (which stars Michael Cera and would be a perfect fit for the Con),ionsgate<

Lionsgateeveldine/Taylor?s Gamer</Taw VI<er, Saw VI (a series which has had a presence in past years), or the vaybreakers<

Warner Bros' big screen adaptation ofhiteout<vel Whiteout is mysteriously missing in action despite making an appearance ainja Assassin<Ninja Assassin isn?t listed on the panel line-up but might have a secret screening. Zack Snyder?s aniuardians of Ga?Hoole<ardians of Ga?Hoole al0th Century Fox<ule.

20th Century ennifer?s Body<r film Jennifer?s Body anantastic Mr. Fox<ted film Fantastic MGM< are oddly missing.

MGM doesn?t have a panel for the Joss Whe Cabin in the Woods<edy The Cabin in the Woods, although I heard there might be a special sneak preview at a press-only event (MGM denies this). The comot Tub Time Machine< comedy Hot Tub Time Machine, which also seems like perfect fit for the conreamWorks Animation<-up.

DreamWorks Animation is again completely skipping the convention, despite it being the first year that presentatow to Train Your Dragon<. How to Train Your Dragon doesn?t have a paneobermind<0 superhero comedy Oobermind has no presence in Hall H (I?m sure they?ylvester Stallone?s The Expendables<ylvester Stallone?s The Expendables has no scheduled appearance.

Of course, the below list is subject to change. Panels and projects could be added, or surprise appearances might be made (for instance, Warner Bros has a panel where they could surprise with Ninja Assassin). Also, some of these films might very well have a show floor presence, advertising presence (District 9 was all over last year?s Con), or viral marketing launch at the Con. But judging from the officially announced schedule, this is the list of movies that won?t have a panel presence at the Con.

I'm really shocked at some of the missing films. Especially Inglourious Basterds, Saw VI, Halloween II, Jennifer?s Body, Whiteout, etc.

I scored a complimentary day pass from my cousin who's volunteering all 4 days there. It's good for Thursday, Friday, or Sunday. Which day should I sign up for?

I'm not into manga nor Twilight. I like American comics, but not so much an avid subscriber. Movies are cool.

This may help you a bit they have some of the stuff by day :)

      Isn’t it so sweet Microsoft after so many years of neglect, they admit to these issues in Windows lately? Doesn’t this just make you wanna run out and meet them halfway to give them a warm hug only? Just gives us this warm fuzzy feeling thinking about it. /s

      The auto industry really needs to update it's terminology so a software update isn't called a recall.

      Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.
