The annual Dallas All-Con starts this Friday, March 12th at The Crowne Plaza in Addison (14315 Midway Road, Addison, TX 75001). Of course, MGF will be on-hand to cover the crazy going-ons. As usual, I'll let the professionals handle the event description. According to All-Con's official website, "for three days All-Con provides an umbrella of content supporting fans of Science Fiction, Fantasy, Renaissance, Anime, Costuming, Theater / Performing Arts, Mystery, Art, Crafts, Collecting, and Film Making. To help 'give back' there are several charity events at the convention every year." This year, the festivities include appearances by actors and artists like John Billingsley (Dr. Phlox", Enterprise / "Mike Spencer", True Blood), Anne Lockhart ("Sheba" on the original Battlestar Galactica, Starship Kelvan's computer voice in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek), Larry Hama (Writer/Editor, Marvel Comics / G.I. Joe), Kazushi Hinoki (Manga artist, Japan), and Keisaku Kimura (Indie filmmaker, Japan). There's also Burlesque, Imperial Gladiators, Cosplay, Console Tournaments, Laser Tag, Rocky Horror, Texas Hold 'Em, Ms. Star Wars competition, vendors, and tons of other panels, activities, and contests. Believe me, there's something for everyone. Last year's event was very fun.

Men are being killed in these apparently useless soirées that are not yielding any weapons. CIA Baghdad bureau chief Gordon Brown (Brendan Gleeson) notices Miller’s skepticism and lets him know that he agrees that something doesn’t add up.
