Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's HopeDecember 3, 2015

Comic-Con in San Diego is the world's biggest sci-fi, comic and cult convention and Morgan Spurlock's new documentary is the perfect guide to geek heaven. A place where fanboys and fangirls can feel normal and revel in their passions. Comic-Con has evolved from a few hundred people buying comics in the 70s to a celebration of pop culture, sci-fi, videogames, TV and action, where some of the biggest movies and TV shows play their first ever trailers to their most fanatical followers. There’s an interesting tension from the old guard as comics have become the underdog, lost amongst the throng, while movies have stolen the limelight with their flashy premieres and A-list celebrities.
