That said, nothing will beat the carnival atmosphere that takes over the whole of downtown San Diego and the Gaslamp District, and local newspapers are reporting that every hotel is filled to capacity as per usual. Even William Shatner cancelled his Hall H talk. No Marvel or DC or HBO, and Amazon Prime cancelled a whole bunch of events. What does all of this boil down to? Well, this year's SDCC looks to be a significantly smaller-scale affair than previous years. We've talked before about how Paramount followed Disney's example and completely removed " Star Trek: Prodigy" from its streaming service purely to save cash, and, as the concept of watching shows made from multiple studios on just one channel - you know, like we have done since the invention of the television in 1920 - seems to evaporate further in front of our eyes in real time, it feels like the notion of actually sharing event space with rival studios is also disappearing. In addition, this year, we also have to factor in not only the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, but also the Streaming Wars. It seems that a number of factors are now at work, including the fact that everyone and their Pyrithian bat are jumping on the convention bandwagon and have been for the last eight years or so. This year, it will feel like SDCC has taken a step back and re-examined its roots. SDCC bounced back, but it now seems that things are different. Then came the pandemic, which threw a spanner in the works of just about everything.
