SYTYCD Season 8: Top 8 Perform
Tonight, Lady Gaga joins the judging table, as well as PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 4 director Rob Marshall. The Top 8 take the stage with All-Stars, but also partner up with each other to bringing some "dances of death" along with one routine that may just be my favorite of the season.
Read about all the routines and who I think will be going home tomorrow after the break.

SDCC: Sunday Recap, including The Cleveland Show and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
By Kevin Taylor
Just like that, it was Sunday, the last day of Comic Con. Crazy how fast it went. Kristal and I got on the floor early to grab a few items to remember the weekend. I got a couple of shirts, one of wario riding a go kart that says "I beat your mom at Mario Kart." The other one had pictures of some of Link's favorite weapons from Ocarina of Time, with the writing "Don't Make Me Go Zelda On You." Awesomeness.
Other purchases included Kristal's Angry Birds shirt that says "Drop Birds Not Bombs" and a pillow of the Facebook "Like" button. After that, we headed on over to Hall H to catch the Always Sunny Panel.
The Cleveland Show: Before we could enjoy the Sunny madness, we had to endure The Cleveland Show panel. They showed a scene from a previous episode that took place at Comic Con, which was kinda funny I guess. After that, they showed concept art of a Die Hard themed episode, "Die Semi-Hard." While I may not be a big Cleveland Show Fan, I do love Die Hard, and this episode actually looked half way decent. I will try to make sure to check it out, but if I don't catch it, I won't be heartbroken.
Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia: This was one of the panels that I was most excited for coming into Comic Con. Last year, they showed a full episode from the upcoming season, and they did the same thing this year, showing "Frank's Pretty Woman." As always, it was hilarious, and will definitely be one to watch out for. The "b plot" revolved around Mac, who in case you haven't heard, put on about 50 pounds of fat for this season, making him "fat mac." While the cast claims it was for the show, Kristal thinks that he put on baby weight, since his wife, Caitlin Olsen, or Sweet Dee on the show, was pregnant this past year. Either way, it was hilarious.
After the episode, the cast came out dressed up in their Nightman Cometh outfits, and answered a few questions. In a perfect ending, the guy who was given the last question asked for them to do a rendition of the "Dayman" song. The whole crowd and the cast sang the song, putting a perfect ending to a fantastic Comic Con!!
While that covers all the days of Comic-Con, stay tuned as Kristal will be posting her exclusive interviews and press coverage here and on GordonandtheWhale.com

SDCC: Saturday Panel Recap, from SNOW WHITE to Kevin Smith
By Kevin Taylor
Saturday was a quiet day for me at Comic Con. The big stuff happened on Friday, and there wasn't much to be done on Saturday. Here are the panels that I saw in Hall H.
Snow White and the Huntsmen: This was an interesting panel as there really wasn't much to talk about. They hadn't shot any footage yet, so they mostly talked about what was to come rather then what had already happened. They did show some pretty cool pictures of all of the main actors in their costumes. Overall, this movie will probably be remembered for being the first major motion picture for Kristen Stewart post this twlight crap lol. And Charlize Theron looks like a pretty badass queen.
Read more about the panels and see a great video from Hall H after the break.

SDCC: Ryan Gosling knows how to do one thing...DRIVE
This explosive film starring Ryan Gosling as a stunt driver, alongside Carey Mulligan, Ron Perlman, and directed by Nicolas Refn was the belle of the ball at Cannes. Hopefully after their Comic-Con panel, they can reach a broader audience.
Check out the red band trailer here:
You can read a full recap of the DRIVE and DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK panel on Gordon and the Whale.
