The dust has settled, the bar tabs and hotel bills have been paid and Comic-Con is a slowly fading memory of whirlwind good times, crowded floors, costumed fans, celebrities, new films and tv shows, comics, interviews, photos and a whole lot more. With all the sites covering the Con and providing a great deal of content, The Flickcast included, its sometimes hard for readers and fans to separate out, and in some cases find, all the stuff they want to take a look at.

We had a lot of great coverage from the Con this year and in order to do it, and its subjects, justice and bring it out into the light, I’ve put together a list of the highlights for you. With this, you can see what you may have missed or go back and experience some of it over again.

We will also be bringing you more interviews, reviews and more from the Con as the weeks and months progress and those projects get closer to being released.

But for now, click away, go back in time a bit, and enjoy some of what the Con, and The Flickcast, has to offer. Until next year.

Since Hpnotiq’s release party a few years ago, a popular drink rising up on the club scene has been the Incredible Hulk. Created in Sean Combs’ New York restaurant, Justin’s, this became one of the first popular superhero inspired drinks. Years ago, no one ever would have uttered the names of comic book characters or sci-fi movies in a popular nightlife hotspot. It was just unheard of. But now with the acceptance of geek culture becoming mainstream, these kinds of drinks are on the rise.

The Incredible Hulk

Much to the delight of guests at the Hilton Bayfront at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, the hotel decided to cater to this rising trend, coming up with their own customer drinks for convention goers and we at The Flickcast were lucky enough to snag one of their recipe charts to share with you.

Some of these are very specific calling for name brand products but most can be substituted for a similar alcohol.

Director Timur Bekmambetov has found great success in both his own country and the U.S. His films, Nightwatch, Daywatch and Wanted show a decided flair for the dramatic and an aesthetic that’s both pleasing to the eye and filled with exceptional inventive style. He also knows his way around an action scene and isn’t afraid to get his characters into some tense, unusual and often deadly situations.

Recently, I had a chance to chat with Bekmambetov about several topics during Comic-Con in San Diego including the upcoming film 9, what’s going on with Wanted 2 and if he plans to bring Angelina Jolie’s character Fox back from the dead.

Check out part of that interview, where we walk Wanted 2, after the jump. Also, be sure to check back right here for the rest of the interview where we walk all about Shane Acker’s 9 and what movie Bekmambetov consider his ultimate dream project.

Now that all the dust has settled, and San Diego Comic-Con is slowly becoming a fading memory, we wanted to bring our readers a look at some of the things we saw, people we talked to, and stuff we did during what we like to call NerdiGras.

We put together this little video to show you what we all went through last week, so check it out, and be sure to stay tuned for all of the interviews, specials, and news we have to offer you from The Flickcast team!

Chris and Matt have been back from Comic-Con for a few days now and have had time for a little reflection about the Con, its highlights, lowlights and what it all means. Joined by special guest Elisabeth Rappe, the three try to explain the magic of the Con, its shortcomings, what they loved and hated about it and why you never, ever, piss off Gary Oldman.

The three also make their picks of favorite moments from the Con and talk about what the Con can do better to make it more enjoyable for attendees and exhibitors alike. Its a no-holds barred hour of discussion that leaves no topic unturned. If you missed the Con or even if you did attend and just want to make more sense of it, you don’t want to miss this.

Now that we have your attention: NO, this is not a hoax, and YES, this is actually a fan-made trailer of the footage shown during last week’s San Diego Comic-Con. Done by the cool dudes over at ScreenCrave.com, this is a shot-for-shot, word-for-word reenacted (or “sweded”) version of the trailer that was shown to the lucky thousands who waited for a seat in Hall H. Only with this one, it was done in a few hours on the streets of San Diego.

Note the authenticity and intricacy of the soft drink lid as Iron Man’s nuclear powered heart or the paper-and-pen combination for Nick Fury’s eye patch. Also note the interesting casting decision when selecting their Don Cheadle. The video is a laugh riot but more importantly you get the idea of what the trailer was like.

After the first run through, your brain knows to replace the main actor with Robert Downy Jr. and the white dude with a post-it on his face with Sam Jackson, so it’s almost like you’re getting the full experience.

Check out the video after the jump, and prepare to laugh.

Cult actors have come and gone throughout the years cinema has been around, but one man manages to stay in the spotlight, and the hearts, of fans everywhere. That man is Bruce Campbell. During his career, Campbell has written a series of books, directed, acted, and even done some cologne commercials, but he never seems to really fade away.

We got a chance to talk to Bruce Campbell recently about a series of things including where his character Sam Axe is headed in the current season of Burn Notice, what his thoughts were on Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell, and some info on his newest project, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

Check out the interview after the jump. You can catch Burn Notice Thursdays on the USA Network.

The 1980s were an amazing time for horror cinema. From the rise of Troma Films to the uncanny popularity of the slasher film, the genre was certainly made into a whole new beast in that decade. One director was able to help move the world of monsters and creatures into the public eye with 1986’s Night of the Creeps.

The film was able to turn horror and scifi on it’s side and add some comedy for flavor. At the time it may have been forgotten rather quickly, but then it was resurrected by a swarm of fans calling it a “cult classic”.  Not looking back on Creeps, Dekker moved on to other projects, some of which include 1987’s Monster Squad and a handful of episodes of Tales From the Crypt.

Now, the fans have spoken once again, and Night of the Creeps‘ popularity has warranted it’s first release on DVD and Hi-Def Blu-Ray this October. The DVD is packed with features, deleted scenes, trivia, and commentary from the director himself. We got a chance to talk about the surprising success and DVD release of Night of the Creeps with Dekker himself, and you can check out the video interview after the jump. Creeps hits DVD shelves October 20th.

Amidst all the excitement at Comic-Con in San Diego over Iron Man 2, Tron, Avatar, Chuck or various other properties, a little show you may have heard of, and that got its start at Comic-Con, still had a packed panel and wowed fans. I’m talking about, of course, NBC’s Heroes.

Even though, in the opinion of some, the show has been a bit rocky lately, that’s doesn’t seem to be dampening fans enthusiasm for the show’s fourth season. One of the way’s NBC tried to enhance that enthusiasm is by showing a brand new “sizzle reel” preview of that fourth season exclusively at Comic-Con a few days ago.

Well fear not if you weren’t there to see it in person because we’ve got it for you right here. This video is a brand new, extended preview trailer entitled “Road to Redemption.” In it, you’re treated to lots of cool glimpses of your favorite characters and what they’re doing next season. Plus, there may be a few surprises in store as well.

Check out all the Heroes Season 4 action right after the jump. Heroes begins its fourth season on Monday, September 24th.

Last week on The Flickcast, Chris and Matt jumped into full Comic-Con preview mode to discuss all the great things at the Con like Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, the Tron reboot, Torchwood: Children of Earth, Iron Man 2 and how fun it is to say the word “Hufflepuff” while doing a British accent.

This time around, the boys are live at Comic-Con in San Diego and have a special guest on the show, writer/producer Mark Verheiden, who’s many credits include Smallville, Time Cop, Battlestar Galactica and Heroes. Among the topics covered are how Comic-Con has changed over the years, the status of Mark’s various other projects like Ark and Quatermaine, the end of Battlestar Galactica and what, exactly, Starbuck really was.

Actress Juliet Landau is probably best known for two things. One, she played Spike’s somewhat eccentric love Drusilla on Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel. She’s also the daughter of Hollywood icon Martin Landau, who’s career has spanned several decades and includes stage and screen.

However, in addition to the lovely Ms. Landau’s on-screen accomplishments, she’s also a respected comic book writer, having co-written some issues of IDW’s Angel comic book, and she’s also an accomplished voice actor who has lent her talents to projects such as Ben Ten: Alien Force and Justice League. He most recent voice acting project is Green Lantern First Flight, wherein she voices the character of Labella,  a flirtatious alien with ties to both Hal Jordan and Sinestro.

We caught up with Landau at the recent San Diego Comic-Con to get all the details of her role in Green Lantern First Flight — which drops on DVD today.

Check out the video of that interview after the jump.

Its not a secret how we feel about Joss Whedon and his major creations Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Dollhouse. In short, we’re fans. Big fans. In fact, we’ve tried to do what we can to get the word out about Whedon’s latest creation Dollhouse and hopefully help a bit to keep the show going.

So, its was with great excitement that we saw this video posted up over at EW. In it, both Joss Whedon and Eliza Dushku dish on the next season of Dollhouse and offer a bit more info on what to expect from the show. Be warned, some of this info could be considered SPOILERS so watch at your own risk.

However, if you’re not afraid of knowing too much, check out the video after the jump.
