Comic Con is set for July 20-23 in San Diego. Tomorrow’s schedule features the seminar “Writing for the Computer Gaming Industry.” I really enjoy writing and have never really thought about where the writing for games comes from. The video game scripts have to have an author. It would be interesting to learn more but alas I’m not in San Diego.

Also on tap for tomorrow: Lionsgate Presents Crank, Skinwalkers, and Saw III. Actor Jason Stratham(Transporter) will be there. Stratham stars in Crank, which follows the adventures of a hitman who has been poisoned and will die if his heartrate drops below a certain beat. It almost sounds like another incarnation of Speed. Throw in a few changes, and Hollywood thinks they have something orginal on their hands. It could be pretty good. My husband and I talk about Lionsgate movies are usually a hit or a miss. We’ll see where Crank falls once it’s released.

More Comic Con news coming as the show gets underway.
