I'm happy to report that the Joost crew made it back from our first Comic-Con in one piece, and in true sci-fi fashion, we have now graduated to Comic-Con apprentices.

From the moment we arrived in San Diego, the scale of the event amazed us - and the enthusiasm and excitement of the attendees were truly impressive. The convention center was absolutely packed every day, and Comic-Con attendees basically took over all of downtown San Diego.

We had a great time meeting fans, and were impressed by everyone's reactions to Joost. Our "costumes" - Joost T-shirts - didn't leave much to the imagination. People asked us for invites everywhere we went, whether we were walking around Comic-Con, battling traffic on the street or hanging out in downtown bars and restaurants.

As promised, Justin Hartley, a.k.a. Aquaman, braved the traffic from Los Angeles to San Diego to sign autographs and help us promote Joost. Justin was mobbed by fans but managed to keep his cool, signing posters and taking pictures with a smile.

Special thanks to Rachel and all our friends at WBTV for their hard work and hospitality throughout the event.

(We found a couple of fans among the artists at the show. One of them, Jason Martin from Super Real, took the time to make this Joost sketch for us.)

Recently, Sony Pictures started running promos on Joost for the US release of Superbad this Friday, 17 August 2007. As a huge fan of the other movies these guys have done, and of the now-cancelled Arrested Development, Superbad has been high on my list of summer movies to see.

(Seeing Michael Cera, aka George-Michael, in a new movie is all I need to justify purchasing a ticket anyway. A comedy legend in the making.)

The clips on Joost are hilarious. If you want to check them out, here's a handy tip not only for seeing the Superbad clips, but for viewing all kinds of stuff on Joost. Do a search for Superbad in Joost, then click on Save As Channel and boom - you have a Superbad smart channel with all the trailers and teasers in there. (I think there are eight total. This one was killing me: Superbad Clip - Home Economics.)

Enjoy ... and take care of ... those ...

Note: These clips are only available in the US, and only until the movie launches here on Friday. After that, you'll have to get your Superbad fix at the theater.

It's summer here in London and ironically, that's meant quite a bit of rain and nothing good to watch on TV.

Since we're getting more and more content on Joost, we've hired Noelle to blog a bit about the stuff she likes, so she can help you find the coolest shows and programmes. She's indeed our first very own "Joost Jockey". Noelle was the lead producer of two Grand Theft Auto Games (San Andreas and Liberty City Stories), which is about as cool as it gets. She also does Hapkido, freestyle wall jumping (check out her Flickr page for that story), and is in general a bit nuts. She will be guiding us all to some of the funny, interesting, stupid, or just plain bizarre shows she finds on Joost and thinks are worth watching. If you have any suggestions, feel free to drop her a line.
