SDCC week is pure heaven for geeks, a marvelous celebration of video games, board games, comics, movies and TV.

While it's naturally a much more exciting event to attend than observe from the sidelines (considering how many trailers don't end up getting released or even leaked in potato quality), studios in recent years have begun releasing more trailers shown off at the Con to avoid poor quality pirate copies doing the rounds.

And even without the trailers, SDCC is still chock full of crucial announcements and reveals. For one, who can forget that Comic-Con was where Batman V Superman was first announced, back when we actually believed it would be a good movie?
