Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures are almost done at San Diego Comic-Con 2013 presenting a slate that includes Godzilla, Seventh Son, 300: Rise of an Empire, Gravity, The LEGO Movie, Edge of Tomorrow and, in a surprise move, World of Warcraft.In spite of our dodgy Internet connection here at the convention center, we’re doing our best to get this up and out to you guys as fast as possible. You can check out our description of the Warcraft trailer here.Jeff Bridges took the stage first, to introduce Seventh Son. The film screened a little footage–some battles and some creatures–and Bridges bantered back and forth a bit with moderator Chris Hardwick.Director Sergei Bodrov, Kit Harrington, Ben Barnes and Anje Trau arrive, with Trau saying that doing this film right on the heels of Man of Steel was a very different experience.Barnes reportedly plays a pig farmer with high ambitions, who is sold into servitude under Bridges’s character. Eventually the two become allies inaย  kind of fight aainst the forces of evil. Harrington is Bridges’s apprentice, and apparently has been for a long time and is not treated well. Some comic fodder as well as some potential for serious drama, it seems. Harrington says that he originally took the job to work with Bridges.Bridges says that all the action sequences made him feel younger, and that that’s what acting is all abou. He praised the stunt coordinators and special effects people for helping it look good. Hardwick jokes (?) that the special effects guy is dating the actor’s daughter.In Gelic culture the seventh son of the seventh son is gifted with second sight, which is something they play with but also something that they stray away from a little bit out of necessity for the story.The “mood piece” footage that they played for Godzilla this year is apparently the same as last year, according to Chris Hardwick, so we won’t recap it here.
