Have wonderful Midsummer! Major public holiday in my country but this year I will celebrate it here in the UK.

I would think that they've waited to make this announcement until near absolute certainty it's going to go ahead. They did similarly last year that there was going to be an announcement and that the finalities in contract were just being done (this was for Aidan Turner). At that time they'd given an announcement date but that then needed to be delayed because of unforseen circumstances arising so you could say, since they haven't given a date yet, they *are* "learning lessons" as you put it. Honestly, even if a guest has been announced, there's no 100% guarantee they will be able to attend, such is the nature of conventions. Should they then not announce any guests until a few days before the event to avoid this? An extreme example maybe but it's just to point out that nothing is certain, they sounded excited in this and wanted to give heads-up, personally I like that they've done this cause it means we get to share in that excitement :)

I just received my shield (plastic but good enough), planning on getting it signed by the MCU cast whenever I get the chance to meet one of them. What do you guys think of my plan about using the different rings of the shield for different category of characters? Gonna try to add Eccleston, Finn Jones and Jessica Henwick on it in july.

Bring on the guest announcements. I'm ready

I would never do that (I did that for a whole hour)

This looks really cool! I’m not going to lie if I had one of these I would probably run around the house being Captain America because I’m weird like that

Seems someone has fallen asleep at the countdown watch... ..days to go!!

Wow. You have a big one

Who you gonna call

I've been obsessively checking this forum almost non-stop since this post first appeared on Tuesday. I hope they put us out of our misery soon, so I can finally get some sleep and stop biting my nails to the quick!

35 days oh my goodness we're so close!

I think SM have done a fantastic job so far...... i am over the moon with line up (as i am every year). So many guests i have booked already with some highly possible but waiting a bit to see who else may get announced.. Keep up the great work SM.

Bring on Clint Eastwood , Tom Hanks , Michael Caine , Ian McKellan or Robert De Niro and I will give you my credit card to cut up after.

I finally read the full post and these are some of the remarks that I have. First of all, congrats to SM for the 15th year anniversary of LFCC. Second of all, awesome that they got more room in the main hall. I don't know about more photo op booths (more chance of 2+ shoots being at the same time) but as long as they're on the same floor it'll be fine. I really hope there's gonna be a limited supply of Diamond Pass so we don't have any kind of situations with Matt and Peter last year. Now about the guests. I feel like they just released this post because people were complaining about the line-up and they wanted to let us know that the line-up wasn't done and we still have a month to go. I just think when they drop this big of an information bomb they should've indicated an estimated date for when we could expect the contracts to be done/not done (today, tomorrow, somewhere next week,... and not 'Over the next few weeks'). Until then these are just words and it feels like they wanted to boost their entrance sales and don't have any guests announcements to make before the legendary guests (they probably have a load more guests but it feels to me like that's the matter). I'm doing 15 comic cons this year and LFCC will always be my favorite so I don't really care about who they announce because I'll still go. I just don't understand why we either have to wait more than a week for every announcement this edition instead of the usual 3-5 days like previous editions (I'm not saying every announcement is like this but most of them were this year) or we're getting hyped with posts like this without a date. Like I said, I love LFCC and I already booked photo ops with great guests this year because of SM.

One persons legendary guest is anothers that cool but not for me, the year we had back to the future was the year LFCC had penny dreadful guests and for me that was way way more cooler, everyone has a different level of wow for them. I like the hype I like thinkng it could be the unexpected think it gets everyone talking, id perfer my bank balance not to be raped or abused anymore than it has been Personally a statement like this means to me its a done deal they are just working though the minor details theres no date on this so lets just hope its sooner rather than later

Bearing in mind that one person's legendary guest announcement is another person's cool but not for me guest announcement. Showmasters must be pretty certain that they can announce soon. But some are going to be disappointed or surprised. The anticipation is part of the fun. I can't wait. And if they're not guests I like then c'est la vie. I'm still going to have a great time.

The main argument is that if the contracts end up not happening for whatever reason people will accuse Jason of just posting this to drum up ticket sales, combined with a lot of people again being certain it has to mean it's going to be Harrison, there probably will be backlash if for whatever reason they don't come off, so it's kind of damned if you do/don't again. So I agree that they wouldn't have posted it if they weren't virtually about to press 'post' on the announcement as it were, but if all 3 don't happen, there will be a few accusing posts on facebook.

No other than I got stuck infront of the telly watching ”Rings”.

My sister made me a cake for my birthday with a yoda figure made out of sugar paste on top and blue cake inside to tell me she's gonna have a boy. I was already asked to be the godfather but now I know the gender. Couldn't be happier with my birthday gift

We had the dance studio and show stable and too many ponies oh my word I'm feeling all nostalgic!

Who didn't love them. I had the pretty parlour and the show stable and a few ponies.

First post updated. Please note it is still work in progress and missing guest announcements and double photoshoots of the last 2 weeks. I will add these as soon as I can. I posted before that I am not used to writing this in table format. The current edit took several hours and I am beginning to get schedule blind way too early.

No problem with the last part

5 weeks to go

Dont worry. A paramedic will at hand. An emergency bank teller too.

I think thats fine to try for on the separate rings, though it does possibly limit you a teeny bit if you get the chance to meet more of one category than the other. Personally I'd keep TV and Film separate - I have an Avengers poster for film people and a Defenders poster for TV, but of course it's entirely up to you.

I think everyone is gonna see green, it's just the picture with bad lighting but I assure you, it looked blue

That's what pop up in my head when I read it

Random comment here but how young does he look here!! Baby David!! Any spooky happenings?

Congrats. On another subject, this is going to be a gold dress/white dress thing again, but that cake isn't blue. It's green. She's trying to tell you she's having a Vulcan. @Wrong Name!

I'd love it to be Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman!

If it is Daniel Craig or Sean Connery or even Brosnan, I would die happily.

Awesome cake this is! Godfather you will be! (I really hope someone gets this)

I already met him. No need for him I still think Idris Elba is a good candidate. it is the weekend before Hobbs and Shaw, so basicly Comic Con will do the promotion for the film. On the other hand, he might be busy promoting the film

Yup I wish for Gillian Anderson yearly haha Its a long standing wish I keep trying at and failing haha I stalked her after her play in February after hearing she came out and met fans with tickets. So splashed out £150 on best seat in house, more on travel, took days off work as its a big travel for me and I couldn't wait... Sat down to watch the play, and David Duchovny and his family sat behind me... So she played with him after the show that night instead of meeting us.... It wasnt meant to be again
