SDCC Day 3: Multitudes of Peggy & Hateful 8 News
Sunday, July 12, 2015 at 8:15AM Anne Marie here with more from SDCC. Most of Saturday's buzz surrounded Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (about which Nathaniel already posted a YNMS), but if capes and cowls aren't your thing, here are 5 other entertaining bits of news from San Diego Comic Con.
5) EW's Women Who Kick Ass Panel assembled a great lineup: Kathy Bates on American Horror Story, Hayley Atwell on Agent Carter, Gwendoline Christie on Game of Thrones, Jenna Coleman from Doctor Who, and Wonder Woman herself, Gal Godot. Someone make this an actual superhero team please.
4) The Sherlock Special sneak peek. Little explanation given for the Victorian setting, but it's fun to see Bendandsnap Cabbagepatch don the deerstalker.
3) Suicide Squad teaser is all anyone can talk about, but Warner Bros hasn't yet released it online. Fan consensus: Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn > Jared Leto's Joker. I just want to see Viola Davis eat that steak.
2) Hateful 8 Panel, interviews, and new poster. Notice that very important cinephile bait bit in the right bottom corner. Good tagline, too. Tarantino revealed that if he can't shoot on actual film, he won't make them anymore and TV might be a possibility. Best news: he convinced the legendary Ennio Morricone to compose his first western score in decades. The Original Score Oscar prediction chart already updated as a result!
1) Hayley Atwell's Dubsmash Videos. The Agent Carter star alleviated her boredom (and ours) with a Dubsmash challenge to her Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. buddies. She also posed with a huge group of Comic Con attendees doing Peggy Carter cosplay

"Bendandsnap Cabbagepatch"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
i love Hayley Atwell so much.
It's good to see all these old white dudes rally around something important to the movie industry like film stock. Glad they only use their power and influence for an important cause like that. Poor Quentin, imagine how difficult for him it would be to not use film. Good thing there are no other problems in Hollywood to solve that are important.
Best part of Day Three for me was seeing Joss Whedon, Amy Acker, Judy Greer, Aisha Tyler, and Claudia Black in person. Also attending amazing panels with writers, without whom we would not have fantastic stories to adapt into films and shows like Children of Men, The Martian, Fallen, Red Queen, The Magicians, and more. Yay writers!!!
