SDCC 17 Sunday Schedule Is Now LIVE
Today San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) released the schedule of panels and events for Sunday, July 23rd of the 2017 convention experience.
We shared Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and now Sunday's schedule with you in the hopes it'll help make your SDCC experience a little more organized. These are the official listings as posted on Comic-Con International's website, and are for badged attendees of the con. That means if you don't have a SDCC badge for 2017, you can't get into these, so don't be that guy.
The color codes on the panels are purple for retailer based events, blue for all other programming, and yellow-gold for the Comic-Con International Film Festival:
Highlights for the day include Hall H's schedule, with Supernatural at 10:30am, TNT's The Last Ship with Eric Dane panel and exclusive sneak peek at season 4 at 11:45am, Dick Gently's Holistic Detective Agency at 1pm (kicking off the BBC America panel), and ending with Doctor Who at 2pm. This will be current Doctor Peter Capaldi's last time (reportedly) at SDCC for Doctor Who, so fans of #13 should plan on being there.
Other highlights include a 10am panel at the Marriott Marquis room 1 & 2 with Food Network star Duff Goldman. Over in room 32AB, a set of back to back panels about women, the first at 3pm "Women Creators Breaking Stereotypes" and 4pm "Moving Beyond 'Strong Female Characters'" where the guests are set to discuss how filmmakers and showrunners could improve on the theme.
And at 2:15, in room 6A, one of the greatest SDCC panels of them all, Starship Smackdown. Often described as fantasy football for nerds, the panel of writers, creators, and real spaceship scientists create a pool of spaceships and pit them against each other in a bracket system to see who would win in a battle. Once the ships get down to the final four, random captains are assigned to the vessels, the final two ships often get either an AI to pilot them or small fighter ships to help defend them. If you've never been to one, you REALLY should, cannot recommend it enough.
Hopefully we'll all survive this year's SDCC, and be around to talk about it the following week.
