The uber-prom of comic book conventions, Comic-Con, starts this week in San Diego on July 14 and runs through July 17. This year's highlights include the annual Eisner Awards, appearances by Ray Bradbury, Kevin Smith, and Scott McCloud, panels on subjects ranging from Ren & Stimpy to Will Eisner, and exhibitors including D.C., Fantagraphics, Top Shelf, and pretty much everyone else.

On Friday:

11:00-1:00 Warner Bros. Presents—This giant-size presentation includes four great new films coming soon from Warner Bros.:

V For Vendetta— Based on the groundbreaking graphic novel, V for Vendetta stars Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman, is directed by John McTeigue, and produced by Joel Silver with Larry and Andy Wachowski from their screenplay. Appearing in person at this event will be Natalie Portman, Joel Silver, and original graphic novel co-creator David Lloyd.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire—In the fourth film adaptation of J. K. Rowling’s popular Harry Potter novel series, Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) must contend with being mysteriously selected to compete in the prestigious Triwizard Tournament, a thrilling international competition that pits him against older and more experienced students from Hogwarts and two rival European wizarding schools. Get an exclusive look at this pivotal adventure in Harry Potter's life.

Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride—Carrying on in the dark, romantic tradition of Tim Burton’s classic films Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride is set in a 19th-century European village. This stop-motion animated feature follows the story of Victor (voiced by Johnny Depp), a young man who is whisked away to the underworld and wed to a mysterious Corpse Bride (voiced by Helena Bonham-Carter) while his real bride, Victoria (voiced by Emily Watson), waits bereft in the land of the living. It’s a tale of optimism, romance, and a very lively afterlife, told in classic Tim Burton style. Appearing in person to show a never-before-seen look at this remarkable film will be producer Allison Abbate and co-director Mike Johnson.

The Fountain-The story of one man's 1000-year struggle to save the woman he loves. As a 16th century conquistador, a modern-day scientist, and a 26th century astronaut, he searches for the secret to eternal life. Join writer- director Darren Aronofsky (pi, Requiem for a Dream) and Rachel Weisz (The Mummy, Constantine) for a preview and discussion of this truly unique science-fiction/fantasy film.

He's awesome, but unlike Natalie Portman, people don't want to see his boobage.

Well, he first had it after Dirty Dancing but after that ridiculous performance in Ghost I wiped my hands clean of him. If someone were to hand me a ticket to the Con, I would gladly give my heart back to him.
