Naturally there were some great costumes at Dragon*Con, so we took pictures of the ones we came across.
Comments:
Byydo: The best part was when Hades swapped the positive and negative leads on that guy's pack and detonated him like a skinny-ass Hindenberg.
ChrisReid: LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT! There's a ghost in that guy's back pack!
Comments:
Byydo: It's times like this you really begin to realize what a great actor Peter Weller is.
ChrisReid: Hey, who let you in here? You weren't even at Dragon*Con.
Joe: I think he was sent to find Death!
Comments:
Byydo: I'm glad I don't read obscure-ass comic books about shit like this.
Monee: Woo! The flaming carrot!
ChrisReid: I made this guy real mad at one point. He pulled out his gun and started freakin out at me at some point during day two.
Comments:
Byydo: Nope, don't wanna live anymore.
TyeDyeBoy: That dude was in the Star Wars costume contest. I can't tell if it made me feel lighthearted over the silliness, or made me want to dive over the rest of the audience and deliver a beating that would make the LAPD proud.
Joe: That horse-guy is one of Aaron Allston's characters--there's also a Jedi-Horse-guy!
Comments:
Byydo: It's nice to see that even though Link's pushing 40, he hasn't lost a bit of his boyish sissiness foppishness pansy nevermind.
TyeDyeBoy: We must have seen a dozen Links at the freakin con.
ChrisReid: This was the friendly cross-eyed link. Doesn't really come across like that in the photo though.
Joe: After seeing this, dressing in Wing Commander uniforms doesn't seem all that silly.
Comments:
Byydo: GYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ChrisReid: I didn't really feel the whole "Jedi-Vampire-Slave" angle..
Joe: Paula got mad when I rubbed her belly for good luck.........What?
Death: The "her" in question being Paula, or the nearly naked chick, Joe?
Comments:
Byydo: "We're knights of the round table, we dance whene'er we're able!"
Joe: The Quest for the Holy CRAP!--It's hot in here!
Comments:
Byydo: This movie would have been a lot better if they hadn't spent 1/3 of the budget on Aki Ross's hair.
Comments:
Byydo: Wow, what? Wait... is this supposed to be Appleseed?
TyeDyeBoy: Indeed it was Appleseed. Too bad it's a lame picture, those costumes were pretty good.
Comments:
ChrisReid: This guy was super proud that he got the blinking light sequence on his proton pack to match the blinking light sequence in the Ghostbusters movie.
Joe: Another Ghost Buster shows Paula part of his anatomy.
Comments:
Comments:
Byydo: Huh?
TyeDyeBoy: Yeah, those guys were dressed up for some upcoming comic they were pushing. Can't remember the name of it, not that I'd care to.
ChrisReid: Were there two or three marshmallow characters in this shot?
Comments:
Byydo: This would probably be funnier if I'd actually read MAD Magazine.
Joe: I thought this was a brilliant idea!
Comments:
Byydo: You again! Go away :(
ChrisReid: I think that's what he was saying to me.
Comments:
Byydo: Is that Venom back there? I like his paste-on face.
Joe: I never understood the odd appendage on that guy.
Death: Turns out that the guys in those costumes are brothers, according to a
random overheard conversation down on the level of the Hyatt leading
out to the patio area (and to the shortest path to the Marriott).
Comments:
Byydo: Wolverine is entirely too popular for a Canadian lumberjack with claws.
Monee: I would have been more impressed had the guy gone as any of the OTHER X-Men.
ChrisReid: Neat idea. I'm clipping my ID tag to my abs next year too.
Joe: The guy inside weighed 113 pounds.
Comments:
Monee: A nice portrait shot of some of the locals.
Joe: I thought this was VERY COOL!
Comments:
TyeDyeBoy: "I been really tryin, baby, tryin to hold back this feeling, for sooo long, but if you feel like I feel baby, come on, OOH, come on..."
Comments:
Byydo: You idiots! This isn't them! You've captured their STUNT DOUBLES!
ChrisReid: Man, that's the funniest thing I've read in this whole article.
Joe: LOL!
Comments:
Byydo: No.
ChrisReid: No? Why yes, they were in fact galloping and the guy in the baggy blue shirt was clapping that coconut to the beat..
Joe: "Come, Patsy!"
Comments:
Byydo: The worst part about the LOTR movies is that now everybody who cosplays Tolkien characters looks the same.
Monee: That elf had the worst wig. He had roots showing!
Comments:
Byydo: "She's Nosferatu!" "She's Italian?" At least it's not Willem Dafoe.
Joe: This guy scared the crap out of Paula!
Comments:
Byydo: HELLO, BACK ROW!
Death: "Now, what were you saying about our costumes...?"
Comments:
Death: Did these guys say "Ni!" at any point, perchance? Sorry, someone had to make a MP reference in reply to that
image.
Comments:
Byydo: Well Fiddle-dee-dee, it's Gonads and Wednesday.
TyeDyeBoy: You know, she's supposed to look all angry, but I'm pretty sure she really *was* pissed.
Joe: Paula and I in 20 years!
Comments:
Byydo: After work, Deep-Eyes likes to shack up with a bottle of Ol' Kentucky Red Eye.
Joe: These costumes were incredible!
Comments:
Byydo: Vicks? Wedge?(
TyeDyeBoy: Chung chung magitek armor! These were probably some of the best damned costumes at the whole con.
Comments:
Byydo: You seem to be missing the lower half of your mask.
Joe: The picture doesn't do it justice--this guy was freaking CREEPY!
Comments:
Comments:
Byydo: The Rocketeer would have been a much better movie if the guy who found the rocket pack was a Waffen SS, and the allies spent the whole movie trying to stop him from killing the whole world.
Joe: The helmet is great...The jacket is great...The rocket sucked!
Comments:
Byydo: On second thought, let's try it with the mask on.
Comments:
Byydo: Didn't Darth Vader used to do Pepsi commercials? Somebody's begging for a throat-crushing.
Comments:
Byydo: All his movies after Edward Scissorhands sucked.
Monee: Man... I'm still impressed with these guys. Holy crud.
Comments:
Byydo: I REITERATE...
Monee: Hello, Boogieman!
Joe: I chased this guy down to get this pic...not that impressive when the guy couldn't move more than 20 feet every hour.
Comments:
Byydo: Hmm, I don't remember Alice in Wonderland being attacked by Devilman... Wait, I think I have that doujinshi...
TyeDyeBoy: Byydo, you're a sick bastard. So what is that in, divx? DCC it to me when you have a minute.
Monee: Dorothy Gale needs to lay off the donuts. I wonder if she's related to the old and uhhh... large... Amidala?
Comments:
Byydo: Huh?
Comments:
ChrisReid: Get it? He's a software pirate. Arre..
Byydo: That's so funny I want to punch him in the face.
Joe: huh?.....OOOOOH! I GEEEET IT!.....A-HOLE!
