What I liked

The tunes. The silliness. The irreverence…Living in LA, constantly surrounded by the insanity of big-budget spectacles and goers of the Con, it was a delight to see that world get its musical day. You’ll be humming ‘I have always been a douchebag’ for days.

What I didn't like

I second the other review. The thirty second intermission left no time for bathroom breaks! But we were warned from the beginning so it’s not like we didn’t know.

My overall impression

Fantastic musical-parody taking the mickey out of Comic-Con… not to mention brainless, big budget Film Producers! Surprised this hasn’t been done before. Catchy songs. Great group numbers. You could tell the cast were having just as much fun as the audience.
