We didn’t get a S4 announcement, but you know what the absolute best thing about today’s C2E2 Hannibal panel truly was?
For almost the first time since the show ended, Fannibals showed how profitable Hannibal can still be.
C2E2 sold out of their remaining VIP ticket packages with guaranteed panel seating within 48 hours of the reunion announcement. Paid PopVerse subscriptions to stream the panel spiked with previously untapped demos (if socials are anything to go by). The largest event hall at C2E2 was overcapacity 45 minutes before the panel; while that’s normal for cons like SDCC and NYCC, in my experience that’s less common at C2E2.
Not to mention Mads and Hugh making bank with autograph and photo-op sales; a huge component of drawing in good talent to table at cons as well, making sure they make enough over the weekend to justify their presence beyond panel appearances. From a talent booking/event management perspective, this is the absolute dream scenario.
So, here’s the super fun part: ReedPop, the company that owns C2E2, also owns/operates New York Comic Con (NYCC), one of the highest-profile US entertainment conventions after San Diego Comic-Con. Now that ReedPop is aware of the viability of Hannibal programming, it would be extremely surprising if RP didn’t attempt a run at a larger, proper reunion panel at NYCC.
Honestly, great job, team. 2024 could very well be the year we get real buzz going again!
I paid Google 3.50 to watch Barbra Streisands The Mirror Has Two Faces because it is, once again, the best romance I've ever seen with my two eyes. It's a fantastic 90s friends-to-lovers, idiots-to-lovers, arranged marriage/marriage contract, slow burn. Please watch it
the 2 funniest bits in The Mirror Has Two Faces are Jeff Bridges reaction to Barbra Streisand's makeover, and Jeff Bridges delivering this line with this face
There was a tweet while back said; ‘𝗪𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 ‘𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲’ 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗰𝗼𝗺𝘀. 𝗜’𝗺 𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲! 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆’𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝘂𝗺𝗯! 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲!’ And I FELT that.
So, I made this post because I too, love older characters in romcoms (idk I feel like the story will be more mature and has better conflicts and not solemnly based on attraction and they don’t pissed me off with clownery).
@ When Harry Meets Sally (1989) you’ll ALWAYS BE FAMOUS 🥺♥️
