Hobbit14 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I can't see a thread on him yet. So i'm sorry if their is one and i've not spotted it. Now I just have to say. What an awesome guy he is. I'm not a Lost fan. But my mate is, she's obsessed. And he's her favourite Character. And we randomly ended up meeting him about 4 or 5 times. And by Sunday, he ended up recognising us. But we were forever having long conversations with him. And he tried to calm down somebody that was with us too. I'll still probably never be a big Lost fan. But it was a nice experience to meet him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogtown_Girl Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Oh he was just awesome! Really friendly and appreciatively attentive. My son is a mega Lost fan, and he was over the moon to meet him, and even though William was not known to me previously, it was impossible not to feel his charismatic warmth.

lostboy Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Went to my first london comic con on saturday and the first guest i met was William Mapother he was such a nice guy. He chatted to me and my girlfriend about the photo he was signing and told us that it was cut from the episode in the end. He asked my girlfriend if she was scared of him! (embarrassingly she said yes) but he just laughed his head off! I went up later to get another lost group photo signed and he drew himself on there with the sun looking down on him! great guest!

Psychosis Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I didn't meet him but when I was in the Robert Englund queue on Saturday, William looked REALLY friendly. At one point he jumped up and kissed one of the attendees on the cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambourne Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Get William to Lockdown!!! He's a great guest. I always get nervous before I met the guests but he made me feel relaxed and was really chatty and friendly and I love the personalisation he gave me.

pinkangel Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 We loved William, he was the first guest we met on the saturday and he was lovely! He was so friendly and seemed genuinely happy to be there! On my Lost book he drew a picture of himself on it and signed it as there wasnt already a picture of him on there, he was so funny! What a great guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yvie Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) I was sat with William on Saturday and because we had such a great time he asked for me back the next day too. I can quite honestly say that he's absolutely my favourite guest of those I've been lucky enough to work with over the last few years and he was certainly one of the most genuine with his fans (not that the others aren't, but you know what I mean). He really made an effort to remember the names of those people who came to see him more than once and really enjoyed meeting everyone - especially those who knew him from his lesser known work. At the end of the weekend he said he'd love to come back to the UK for another show because everyone had made him feel so welcome... even if most of you did accuse Ethan of being evil On a more personal note, I adored him. During breaks and on quiet periods, among the other things we talked about, he was giving me relationship advice and trying to psyche me up for my first Thanksgiving (I'm meeting the Yank boyfriend's parents for the first time in November) and even offered to call me with a refresher closer to the time. He's a complete star in every possible way Edited September 3, 2007 by Yvie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacey Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 He was awesome! I also had never been to a convention before and he was the first guest I met and he was so friendly and nice. I'm glad he was there and the first guest I met as it made me more relaxed about meeting other people as well as he was so lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie79 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 William was lovely. Definitely my favourite guest I met over the weekend, and one of the best guests I've ever met.

A007 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Met him on the Sunday and he was a quality guest. He asked why I picked the photo I did (the Claire shot) and even asked permission to draw a target on Claires bump (and he says he's not evil!). He was very friendly and seemed happy to be there. One of the many who accused him of being "Evil"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yvie Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I wasn't at the con but was wondering if anyone talked to him about Mission: Impossible II or working with his cousin, Tom Cruise?? MI2 was discussed, but everyone was respectful enough to keep the focus on him and his own career rather than his family connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 William was my favourite guest at the show. As someone has said already, you just felt really relaxed talking to him. It was also nice to meet Yvie with her knowledge of archaic laws in York! You certainly added to the fun experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellie@lostie Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 i met him as soon as i got there! I picked out the photo with locke as i said he scared the hell out of me in that episode! I really wanted to see dom, and william was the person i would see funds pending! Im so glad i did see him, as he made my year! I didnt get a "great" experience with dom, so william made up for that in many ways. He chatted with me for about 10 minutes and recorded a message on my dictaphone! Im just gutted i didnt have enough cash to have my pic taken with him. I have even thought about writing to him, he had that such effect on me. Im a true fan of his now! what more can i say, apart from that i LOVE HIM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really glad that you had a good time William was really good at putting people at ease... on the whole I think he asked more questions of the attendees than they did of him!

Agent Bristow Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I met William on Sunday and I agree with everyone who has said he was one of the best guests I met. He asked me about myself and was really chatty. I was worried about holding up the queue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 MI2 was discussed, but everyone was respectful enough to keep the focus on him and his own career rather than his family connections. I mention it cos had I been there I'd have asked about the rumored 3hr R rated cut and his experience with working for John Woo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tweety_be Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 William is sooooo nice! At the end of the event on Sunday, we were still kinda wandering around, tho it was all closed and we actually had to leave . So we went to the exit and we bumped into him All of us (group of 6) were so surprised! We had a small talk with him and could go on the picture with him, as a group. We took 2 pix, so that the person who took the pic, also was innit once, his suggestion! He is seriously so nice and down to earth! That was a nice and welcome suprise, really! Bless him so much!
