Comic-Con Bonus Video: Simon Pegg and Co. Speak
During my time at Comic-Con, I got to interview Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright and Jessica Hynes of the cult-favorite British series, "Spaced." After running into "Superbad" director Greg Mottola over at the Convention Center and finding out that Mottola planned to work with Pegg on a feature film partially set at Comic-Con, I attempted to get more information from the "Shaun of the Dead" star himself.
Pegg would confirm nothing, including the fact that frequent collaborator Nick Frost will appear in the Mottola-helmed movie with him. He and his buddies did, however, address the idea of "Spaced" becoming a film, their impressions of Comic-Con and plans to complete the trilogy Pegg and Wright began with "Shaun" and the cop-movie-parody, "Hot Fuzz." See and hear it all for yourselves in the video interview below.

Simon Pegg is a brilliant comedic actor and a genuinely funny guy. So...that'd be a yes.

Welcome home and Happy Birthday, Liz!
You should take pictures of all your swag (including my Dwight Schrute bobblehead, right?) so we can drool.
