Steve Carrell of “The Office” made a surprise visit to Comic-Con with the Rock to promote their new movie, the remake to the classic TV show “Get Smart”.
I’m hanging out with two of my oldest friends Richard Grimes and Mike Bateman at this years Comic-Con 2007. It’s the comic book and science fiction convention that draws over 120,000 freaks and geeks over a 4 day weekend.
The event is a big draw for the movie studios who are dependent on the demographic of comic-con to help the buzz meter of future movies. Some of the folks speaking today included Steve Carrell for his new movie “Get Smart”. Also on hand, Peter Fonda, Kate Beckinsale, The Rock, Joel Silver, Ben Foster, Ridley Scott, Sean Young, Stan Lee, Ed Burns, Kevin Smith, Matt Groening (creator of the Simpsons), Robert Downey Jr (for the new Iron Man movie) and many others.
I can’t describe how the experience of navigating the exhbit hall and convention center with 120,000 raving fans. It is just plain crazy!
