Jesus, sounds like we barely made it. Weird though, our estimated place was around 1800-2000. Estimated though. By idiots.

That's the part that werids me out. Seems like a lot of these issues could have been avoided relatively easily.
How's the vibe in the line? People starting to murder each other yet?
What does Star Wars smell like?

That's alright for you. It's 9:30pm here and there is no way I can make it to 1am to see anything.
Nerd sweat and Wookie fur.

Everyone is too tired to care about much. They just let everyone else in and there's a 5 minute or so wait for each of the restrooms. The food vendors are a tragedy.

But the ReedPop person who runs it is former LFL so... Lovely, so no one who showed up at the time in the rules got into the live stage!
Yeah our estimate from Mary herself was "on the bubble" we were more on the bubble the day before! Pretty sure no one who didn't overnight is even getting into BTS stage and not sure anyone who didn't line up outside before 5 got Mark's tribute, which is also gone.
Am also fairly sure the estimate was being blown partially by people joining friends before midnight and not going in whatever was the proper corral entrance. Rebels is going to be a MAJOR shit show tomorrow. Like I know I can't do everything at the con. I know I have to sacrifice A to do B. But at this point I haven't set foot in exhibit hall, haven't even been able to send BF as planned AND now he can't go either of the next two days and just Arghh.
Galactic Nights better not be a shit show. I need my John Williams/Rian Johnson "oh this was worth it" moment.

That is a review of Star Trek (2009) with Rian Johnson, and the slash film cast crew.
It's pretty good, plus you can kinda see how he thinks.
Anyway, 3 hours or so to go.
I am totally planning on losing my shit during the panel.

Who?
So Rian reviewed not only a JJ movie but also a Star Trek Movie this might be interesting

Oh Hamill's Carrie tribute sold out with the not supposed to be there pre-5 AM outside queue too. Fantastic.
Seriously fuck the people running this thing. Why even have policies.

It may have been posted in this topic, but apperently someone from LFL, told someone (over twitter?) that they are planning on showing quite of it of stuff from TLJ.
So I'm expecting character names, trailer, possibly costumes???

This scene made me a bit sick as a 6 year old kid.
lol, Mace with a walker. What made you think Mace Windu?
Shit. Show.

I probably would if I didn't have two young kids. I'll just see it at 5 in the morning. Enjoy all.

See they get away with this shit at Anaheim because the venue is bigger so more people can get through their shitty process. Ugh. Very grumpy today.
What is the problem?

ReedPOP policy was any line formed before 8 PM would be dispersed. That was a lie. But in Anaheim the main stage seats double what it does here so people who might have followed the policy would still get in. So the line that shouldn't exist (to be fair at least everyone knew it would for Thursday night) actually sold out the main stage, which wouldn't happen in Anaheim.
Basically OCCC is too small for Celebration now.

I hope the stream for The Last Jedi panel isn't as bad as yesterday's.
"Full"
Considering a lot more people will probably be tuning in for that panel in comparison to yesterdays, I'm skeptical.

I'm struggling to even give a shit about the trailer lol
I remember this review, was it Devindra that goes in on Chris Hemsworth? (Terrible actor, doesn't fit as Kirks father). Pretty funny in hindsight.

Is this the one where Rian read erotic slashfiction to the slashfilm crew, about themselves? Because that happened, and it was incredible.
When I'm not snarling at the world I am as well probably because now we have an investment in the new characters.

I don't remember many issues in the last two events. The 40th anniversary stream was probably the worst quality I've seen. Here's hoping.
Uh. Two hours.
Edit: someone by me just said all wristbands are gone save for the Heroines panel. Oddly my second band and the one I have to run to DHS from.
Potentially something with Visceral's game?

I don't think so. Battlefront 2 has its own panel but there doesn't seem to be anything scheduled for any other games.
