The best part of this video is how I only understood maybe three words they said. /s

A very similar situation occurred at a theater here in L.A. that I volunteer at. We were showing "Tucker and Dale Vs Evil" with one of the leads, Alan Tudyk who was present for the screening and a Q&A afterward. I was filming the Q&A for the theater, guess who is sitting next to Alan in the audience?...Nathan Fillion. The room was filled with fans of Firefly so you can imagine the amount of nerdgasams that were going on as word spread around the room they were both there and sitting together to watch the film. So after the screening, during the Q&A, Nathan starts lobbing in questions, some very similar to this video...and eventually the moderator just told him to come up and take over, he was happy to oblige... the screams could be heard all over town. It was good times.

I wouldn't have known at the time, but the moment i heard the voice, i knew!

He'll always be my "Big Damn Hero."

I find this nerdy subculture a tad annoying.

An interesting article questioning the power of these "superfans"
http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2010/jul/29/comic-con-geek-culture

And I agree with this comment;
"I'm quite frankly bored of seeing Hollywood roll up to Comic-Con to test fire their weapons on a crowd of geeks who, contrary to popular misconceptions, don't make a tough audience to market to, compared to, say, regular cinema-goers or mainstream critics."

Who and who?

@Deano : have to disagree...

Entertainment / Celebrity Goss based on mainstream cinema is a global billion dollar industry. Morons of the world are desperate to find out the latest on Tom and Katie / Brad and Angelina. It's completely acceptable to fawn over actors who are overpaid 'buy the numbers' with pretty mediocre talent.

Being a geek or nerd used to be an insult and something to be mocked and bullied for. Now geeks run your IT, and your Internets, fix your computers, and make the App's and games for your iPhones.

We're allowed to get excited about entertainment tailored to our interests.

...now you'll have to excuse me, I have a D&D game to Dungeon Master....

I remember growing up and films JUST CAME OUT. And you went to see them and bought some tie-in products. These guys are spoiling things for themselves with that need to know all. Also the article does suggest that the geek opinion-makers are bought and paid for and co-opted into each film's marketing efforts. Which is totally unsurprising to me. You give something to someone and it creates an obligation - classic psychology.

I do applaud the geek but they need to reign in that enthusiasm and directors shouldn't kowtow to Comic Con just because they've got a superhero film coming out.

Actually the clip above is quite fun. It's pure pantomime and if you know the people involved I'm sure it's enormous fun.
