When I attended SDCC for the first time, I was a fan, but I hadn’t joined Cosplay Fandom. This year, inspired by a sale in its universe, I bought two Star Trek dresses that I adopted several sizes to wear on Wednesday and Friday. Sunday morning, I finished three costumes to celebrate a new film and feel like a hero.
In 2013, I wrote on the advice that Morgan Spurlock had given in his documentary “Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan’s Hope”. Spurlock was not the only one who advised participants to use the deodorant (and to move away from those who do not). Still in 2013, four SDCC experts advised participants to adopt the deodorant and this year it was easier to do because Old Spice was a SDCC sponsor and the company had family activation in front of the Hilton San Diego Bayfront. You could have a new launch by entering a small pod and receiving a full -size deodorant bar and two photos. It was fun the first time, but chaotic the second time on Sunday when, after having obtained permission from the activation staff, I came with my versions of Superdog and an American super-wife of the East.
Wednesday evening, I was dressed in Star Trek Command Yellow when I visited Paramount + lodge for what was really an impossible mission, being too short to reach most of the computer keys and a Star Trek Bar experience. Star Trek fans over the age of 21 could attend a special Trivia evening to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Memory Alpha – the emblematic Fandom Star Trek Wiki. The evening was organized by Fandom and Roddenberry Entertainment in the Gaslamp district (Barl de Knotty) and included readings of Hate Mail which were sent after the “Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan” of 1982 due to the death of Spock. Is there a Star Trek without Spock was one of the questions in the 1980s. There have been many Star Trek since then, but TOS fans did not have to worry. My husband of Fan Tos obtained correct answers (episode titles) to some of the Haiku clues, but because we had one morning early Saturday, we left before the Trivia competition which corresponded to the experts of the Podcast Star Trek against the crowd.
However, it was not the end of my connection with Star Trek. Saturday evening, I followed a public relations directive and I waited in front of the lodge (Happy Does Bar). An animated crowd of fans dressed in their best Star Trek was also there (I was dressed as a stewed dragon with a steeped puppet). A little after six, a square of empty space was delimited in the street which is always closed for the SDCC and a troop of dancers dressed in uniforms “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” filled the space, making us cross a dance that alluded to the 3 episodes season, including a marriage and a mystery of murder. A lucky star trek spectator was torn from the public to play the bride.
A large part of the crowd of Star Trek left after the first performance, but I stayed to watch the second performance. Those who remained or filled later were rewarded by the presence of the showrunner and some of the stars who formed a first row wall. My award as a videographer was a clip by Rebecca Romijn and Christiana Chong who joined the dance towards the end of the performance to be severely being advised to return to their space assigned by the dancer of Captain Pike.
In addition to celebrating Star Trek, we also celebrated the 70th anniversary of the most famous export in Japan: Godzilla. Super7 had a Popup store in the exterior edges of the Gaslamp district which portrayed the chompeting scene of the “less oscored Godzilla train”. Inside were t-shirts with happily optimistic warning signs and a lot of cool goods from Godzilla. Later in the Convention (Saturday), the Popup organized an autograph signature by the director of “Shin Godzilla”, Shinji Higuchi. Den of the Geek also organized a live gift of products on the theme of Godzilla.
Higuchi (樋口 樋口) a remporté le prix du film de l’Académie japonaise en tant que réalisateur de l’année (avec Hideaki Anno 庵野 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明 秀明) pour sa contribution à la Godzilla Lore avec «Shin Godzilla». Plus récemment, Higuchi a réalisé le film de Netflix de cette année “Bullet Train Explosion” (新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破 新幹線大爆破), mais la question que tout le monde a posée (elle a été interdite à mi-chemin des tables rondes de presse) était: y aura-t-il un “Shin Godzilla 2 “? During the interviews in the press room, Higuchi said through an interpreter that making a Godzilla film was a lot of work and that he prefers to relax, but he also noted that Godzilla was not only a mutation, he is mutataceable. We get the Godzilla we need for each era. When I asked what was his first memory linked to Godzilla, Higuchi said: “My first memory returns to kindergarten when I saw Godzilla’s first film in the cinemas. It was actually “Godzilla against Mothra”. More than the film, it was the way posters represented Mothra.
Higuchi was the last speaker of an overly excited panel, “Godzilla at 70: seven Decades of the King of the Monsters”, which advertised two -thirds for new products related to Godzilla (IDW Publishing, Super &, Bandai Namco and Mondo) and the question of the consequence by the public. The original Japanese film was released in 1954, but the reissued Americanized version which added Raymond Burr as a journalist released in 1956 in the United States.
“Shin Godzilla” was remastered and will have a theatrical reissue on August 14, 2025 by GKIDS in North American cinemas, after which a 4K remaster will be available on Blu-ray.
The “Futurama” press room included an intense conversation on coffee. In 2003, our pizza delivery man who finds himself in the future, Fry, ended up with $ 300 and spent it on 100 cups of coffee $ 3 (“Three Hundred Big Boys”). In 2024, the episode “Planet Espresso”, we learned that coffee was brought to earth by an extraterrestrial race on the thermos planet. Executive producer and editor -in -chief David X. Cohen admitted that “my own life is fed at the coffee, so it was deeply personal to catch up and learn the history of coffee”.
Disney Entertainment had four activations: “A very abbott block party” which included a ferris wheel for fantastic views of the bay, “King of the Hill” by Hulu, the barbecue of the backyard with fun games, “Alien: Earth” of Fx, let the guests explore the wreck USCSS Maginot, And “The Percy Jackson Experience” gave you a test to see what God will claim to you. Ian obtained Athena. I have a Poseidon. All were free, without the SDCC pass required, but the expectations were long. I thought the photo sessions of the Abbott Block party were the best. You must become a cartoon character on a poster in one and the other, if you play it correctly, you could become an action hero in a GIF video with four photos. Congratulations to the photographer who has the programs of a director.
I attended signs where in addition to learning that Godzilla has faced enemies of different kinds (for example Ghidorah against Batman and Godzilla against Superman), I learned that everyone with a mobile phone can become a filmmaker and there is an international mobile film festival based in San Diego.
Inside the exhibition hall, the most exciting exhibition was the San Diego Lego-Con Diorama in Lego where a massive construction showed the facade of the San Diego Congress Center from one side and the other on the exhibition soil. I went to watch it more than once and every time I noticed something different. It contains more than 200,000 Lego bricks and has taken more than 1,500 hours to design and build. There are more than 8,000 LEGO mini-figuses.
We finished our weekend in a local pizza joint (Barrio Logan): Pizza Kaiju.

In addition to the usual pizza of Pepperoni, you can order the (Korean) Bulgogi Supreme, the (Japanese) Mentaiko Royale or the (Philippin) Sisig, whole or by the tranche. We hoped for a place more characterized by Kaiju, but the pizza was good.
We have probably taken more than 100 videos and photos that will be published on my Instagram (@janamonji) and more detailed coverage on my blog (Ageofthegeek.org) later this week. Live for a long time and prosper and look forward to the SDCC of next year and do not forget to feel like a hero.
