Kaiju rampage.  Sure I would be up for that.  lots of monsters, great miniatures, aliens, color galore, lots of fake destruction.  Bring it on.
 

I bring you peace. It may be the peace of plenty and content or the peace of unburied death.

Kaijus rule!  It would be great fun to see one at the 'thon (as long as it's not something like THE GIANT CLAW though.)

Fun trailer show in L.A. last night. Lots of great horror and SF previews for films like TROG, FROGS, DAY OF THE ANIMALS, FOOD OF THE GODS etc. Lots of William Castle.

The theater even made their own trailer for the event:

Here's one that as far as I know has never played the 'Thon:

Dr. Who and the Daleks, featuring Peter Cushing as the controversial, non-canonical Doctor.
