Con-ning for The AV-Room

The AV Room launched on January 12th and what happens I get my first field assignment on the 13th. So I made my way to the monthly LOS ANGELES COMIC BOOK AND SCIENCE FICTION CONVENTION. It’s a big name for an average size convention but it does get in big name talent so it’s earned its verbose moniker. The January program had two high powered panels I’ll cover the first in this post:

‘IN THE NAME OF THE KING: A DUNGEON SIEGE TALE’ which opened this Friday.

The panel was made up of Leelee Sobieski and Kristanna Loken two of the beautiful stars of the movie. The ladies were very relaxed and were having fun answering fans questions. They spoke of having fun working with Uwe Boll despite the reputation he has. Both women grew up on farms, LeeLee in the south of France and Kristanna in upstate New York, were they learned to ride horses which has come in very useful on a number of projects not just “KING”. Kristanna did state that she enjoyed working in dramas and found the role of a bisexual single mother on the L-Word was very challenging.

To LeeLee I posed the question if her role in the independent film ‘WALK ALL OVER ME’ was challenging since she had to portray a naïve girl impersonating a dominatirix. Her response was that she had no trouble keeping the two aspects separate and asked me “You don’t think I’d make a good dominatrix”. My response “I could only hope.”
