If anticipation for this year's Comic-Con had a soundtrack, it would be John Williams' instantly recognizable, Oscar-winning Star Wars theme.
The latest take on the beloved space opera was top of mind for fans Wednesday night as the annual pop-culture convention opened for a preview of its colorful showroom floor. Comic-Con officially begins Thursday.
"Everyone loves Star Wars," said Kristen McLaughlin of Los Angeles. The 23-year-old, wearing a Captain America costume, said she plans to spend Thursday night waiting in line for Lucasfilm's Friday afternoon presentation on Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
More than 130,000 fans are expected at the San Diego Convention Center over the next four days for autograph signings, TV and film presentations, toy shopping, costume contests and other artistic engagements inspired by comic books and superheroes.
Star Wars has a major presence in the massive showroom, with a mini-mall of booths dedicated to its characters.
