This Week...
With most of the team at Comic-Con this week, there's something of a skeleton crew here in the office. Still, we're amusing ourselves with continuing speculations about the true meaning of Inception, an ongoing cake-eating competition and regular outings to interview a few big A-list stars who haven't headed to San Diego this week. That said, it's all about the 'Con really, and our crack team of James, Chris, Sam, Nick and James are out there to cover every bit of news as it happens. Keep up to date with them on our blog and with regularly-posted news stories all weekend, as well as on Twitter and in our iconic, unstoppable videblogisodes. Will Videblogisode Man return again this year? Just wait and see… Helen O'Hara

Comic-Con 2010
It's no secret that Comic-Con is absolutely huge. To get an idea of exactly how huge you need look no further than preview night. Two years ago it was just a case of the main floor opening for a few hours the day before the Con started so that those who'd flown into San Diego a day early had more to do than scarf Subways and wander the streets getting beaten up by sailors from the local naval base. Nowadays the 'quiet preview' of everything on offer at the Con is rammed from port to starboard, hordes of sweating bodies swarming the aisles in a geektacular stampede that rivals anything you'll find on Saturday – the traditional 'rush' day.

Video: Toy Story 3 Location Report And Interviews
One day Pixar might make a movie that isn't an animated masterpiece, but really don't hold your breath. The wonderful Toy Story 3 certainly isn't that film. We sent our roving reporter to the World's Greatest Workplace (aka Pixar HQ) to talk to director Lee Unkrich, Tom Hanks and Tim Allen - and a host of other Toy Story talent - and get the lowdown on Buzz, Woody, Jesse and Co's trip to Sunnyside Nursery. And as a bonus, Timothy Dalton talked us through the secret of Mr. Pricklepants's lederhosen. | | |

Talented family, the Garcias. Not content with being an Oscar-nominated actor as well as a writer, producer, musician and style icon (don't laugh, we'll all be wearing these moustaches soon), Andy Garcia has also sired four talented children. His daughter, Dominik Garcia-Lorido, appears with him in City Island, a funny, wry look at families and the lies they tell. We took the opportunity to find out which of her dad's movies is her favourite. Unsurprisingly, it wasn't The Pink Panther 2. |
