Comic-Con: FOX Missing Hall H, Two Pokemon Creators Making First Appearance

Just in case you think you missed something, remember, 20th Century Fox, last time I heard, is skipping San Diego Comic-Con's big Hall H cast of panels. But they will have a booth on the floor that you need to keep an eye on.

The reason Fox is skipping a major panel in Hall H this year is because of numb-nut people who pirate the previews and release them online later.

There's the argument though that leaked content helps the marketing of some titles, such as Deadpool's constant stream of leaked previews, where the film then went on to become the number one dramatic film, ever.

Then there's the other suspicion, where folks are thinking that Fox just does not have anything or enough to host a panel that might generate big buzz, but instead, would generate the buzz of how little they have coming out in the near future.

Either way... no, you're not missing anything.
