Batmobile, Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo

In anticipation of my one and only day attending the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo tomorrow, here are two iconic vehicles from the comic and science-fiction world — Batman’s Batmobile, above, and the DeLorean from Back to the Future, below. Spotted both during my first Calgary Expo back in 2012.

Hollywood & Vine

Reaching a little ways back into the vault … here’s a photo from my visit to Los Angeles last year, from the Hollywood/Vine Metro station. Love the culturally appropriate film-spool-ceiling-tiles.

True to your heart

Spotted this partial poster on a side street in Hollywood, back in the fall.

Pulling back the curtain

The industry of Hollywood is all about fantasy … so it’s appropriate for some of the art in Hollywood to be the same. Here’s a cool trompe-l’oeil just off Hollywood Blvd.

Futile search for privacy

This is Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood as it appeared a few weekends ago, the red carpet about to roll out for the premiere of Ender’s Game. The extensive use of privacy screens made me chuckle.
