  4. I'm going to suggest something very unusual... Sang Jun Lee please! Was part of the art department for Lucas Film, did the animation design of a lot of the creatures, etc in the prequels. I bet he would be awesome to meet and have lots of great stories. Plus, it is something a bit different!

  6. Happy dance! I had the chance to talk to him at one of the Braehead events a few years back, and I didn't. Shame on me. Then it was announced that he'd be in the Hobbit. Doh! Defo talking to him this time.

  17. As much as I'd love to see these people, Steve Austin rarely does conventions and The Undertaker is signed to another convention company (won't say which one since it will break the rules of Showmasters forum, but you can guess lol).

  19. Don't really know where to start with Famke as meeting her with a Diamond Pass was something of a mixed bag to say the least. My top three female guests I have always wanted to meet were Gillian Anderson, Sigourney Weaver and Famke Janssen so as with Sigourney last year, I bought a Diamond Pass for Famke as the value was pretty good I thought: £170 = 2x autos (£45ea) + photoshoot (£45) + talk (£20) = £15 premium to guarantee meeting her. Not bad seeing as I wanted everything included. Went and got 3 autos from her about 11am Saturday. It had a bit of a rushed feel, a certain panic in the motions of the crew is probably the best way to put it. I was grateful she obliged with my request for two in blue pen, and another in gold, Famke asking me if I wanted any with personalisations. On my last one I asked if she would put a line of dialogue from GoldenEye I wanted, she looked a little flustered and in retrospect the quote was a little long so she put an alternate that was probably better, but then put a REALLY rushed signature. In the good column I greeted her, she said hello back but she didn't look like she enjoyed being there, in the bad column I gave her a compliment that was flat out blanked. And that was the total interaction. I have some autos from her previously on official merchandise she has been paid to do and the signatures she gave yesterday looked sloppy in comparison. Anyway, when putting my autos away I saw I had smudged the gold one with quote(!) but I had a spare pic so paid for another auto in a different pen. I nearly didn't as I hadn't been bowled over by the first meeting with her minutes before. I went up to her the second time and said: "You know that one you kindly just did me with the great quote? Well I smudged it like an idiot" she was like "Oh no!" and really took her time to re-do it much more slowly. I thanked her again and told her this was a gift from my partner for my birthday and she very sincerely wished me a happy Birthday. So two very different interactions within the space of about 5mins. However this second interaction was somewhat ruined at the end.... I will say that I am not normally much of a handshaker for hygiene reasons, but for whatever reason, maybe me just being instinctively grateful for her doing my pic and quote again, I extended my hand to shake hers whilst saying thanks. This was greeted with her bodyguard (standing over her the whole time) actually smacking my hand away, which was (insert swear word) appalling. There were no signs saying no handshakes, nobody telling you that either, why wouldn't an attendee maybe go to shake a guest's hand? If she didn't want to shake hands then fair enough. Brent Spiner does fist bumps. Peter Dinklage didn't want to shake. I carry hand-sanitizer everywhere I go. I GET it. But for that minder to actually strike me, even if only my hand, is bang out of order and unfortunately says a lot about Famke if that is what she is happy for her staff to do. I would seriously suggest Showmasters take that feedback and do something with it. Then I went for the AM photoshoot everyone is talking about... I think we all should have known something was amiss when entering the booth we were all greeted with: "NO HANDSHAKES! NO ARMS AROUND! NO HUGGING! WE CAN MAKE IT LOOK LIKE YOU ARE TOUCHING, BUT NO TOUCHING WHATSOEVER!" Talk about a mood killer. Famke was very static and on a stool, very icy and mannequin-like. I was happy to make the best of it, I got a nice Patrick Stewart photoshoot even with us both in chairs for some "fan distance" but the photo I got from Famke is without a doubt the worst I have ever had with any celeb at 8 years of Showmasters events. I got the same wince/grimace you can see on everyone else's photoshoots posted on the forum - it looks like she really did not want to be there and is a horrible momento of the experience. Now, I've read a lot the last day or so about her mention of lack of sleep at her talk, or broken ribs or whatever. And you know what, I'm not buying it. It's not an excuse. Why? Because I was in hospital Thursday, had to go home sick from work Friday and had the pleasure of a kidney stone Friday night. I got to London yesterday drained and worse for wear and SOMEHOW I managed to crack a smile at photoshoots, and somehow be pleasant whilst talking to guests and other fans I had never met. But I am forgetting two massive differences between Famke and I: 1) She is being paid to be there. Show up and put the effort in. It is disrespectful to every paying fan not to. 2) We're talking about a professional actress here, if you're not having fun, fake it. She should be expert. Not every celeb is an ace at the signing table, building rapport can be difficult with certain people, but to not even a smile at the photoshoots? Sorry, not acceptable. Seriously, check out the photo library when they're uploaded. Hilarious for all the wrong reasons! And will be very interesting to see if she was any better today. I had a glance around her signing area later in the day and the signatures she was banging out at this point looked so bad and rushed, but there were times where she was sitting waiting for the next bunch of people to come to the desk. I don't get it. Mix in the fact they were blocking her off with some vertical banner thing and a security guard next to that, blocking anyone from seeing her or taking a poor distance shot of her at the table, and it made for a very bizarre experience. For her talk at the end of the day, she seemed much more 'on-form', and whilst I didn't find it terribly engaging, it makes you wonder why she was so different earlier in the day. There did seem to be points where they were struggling for audience questions (the girl next to me got to ask 3!), says it all really when even your paying fans can't be bothered to get their hands in the air. I know this has been a long one so thanks for reading if you have. I mentioned Sigourney and Gillian earlier, people with ENORMOUS fan followings, and you look back and realise not only how good they were at the time, but just how much better they are as guests overall when you have encounters like mine with Famke yesterday. So am I glad I met her? Well I wouldn't have not met her. I got some nice autos from her but an awful photoshoot. Overall, disappointing.

  20. She shouldn't even be attending the event with a broken rib to be fair, she should be resting up and recovering. That said I guess the lure of rinsing fans for £££s for 2 days must numb the pain better than morphine

  21. She should've just cancelled in my opinion. I'm sure people would be more understanding of a guest cancelling due to a broken rib instead of her turning up anyway just to get the money and giving the paying fans such an awful experience that will taint her perception and reputation. Poor show.

  22. I would quite like to leave my opinion. I was EXTREMELY disappointed. Nothing particularly happened thats made me want to comment.... but if we're paying all this money to meet someone then they should be courteous enough to engage with you. I felt EXTREMELY uncomfortable the minute i was in the queue.... All the showmasters staff were warning everyone "No touching". I thought that was weird, cause I had went to 8 photoshoots prior to hers and didn't really understand. THEN we got taken in... and we seen her sitting next to her security on a chair. No one was allowed to make contact with her in the slightest. It was my turn and i just ran beside her...leaving a fair distance and i said "hiiii" in quite an upbeat manner. and she just kinda turned her head slightly and said "hi" in a sort of... "Hurry the F Up" sorta tone. I'm sorry Showmasters, if you knew about her terms & conditions prior to Saturday, then you should have stated the rules on the shop OR ELSE i wouldn't have bothered. This is a convention where fan girls and fan boys get to meet their idols and talk to them etc. Famke was not up for this in the slightest. :-(
