    Any guests announced at this weekends con?

    in London Film and Comic Con 2015

    Posted · Edited by Gordon The Gopher

    There was nothing official announced I don't think that I saw around the arena but the showmasters staff mentioned stuff that I haven't seen yet elsewhere on forum so not sure? A big cast reunion is planned? Also some booked diamond guests but they certainly haven't been announced on here yet because the forum would have exploded so ill keep hush about that for now

    Scottish bank notes questioned

    in London Film and Comic Con 2014

    I accept the argument that English people may have never seen a Scottish note before however anyone working with cash for showmasters should be trained as to what is and what isn't acceptable currency.

     

    If you start a job in retail they would train you and let you know that 'this is sterling and acceptable, we don't accept Euros etc etc'

     

    If Showmasters aren't training their cash handlers on what is and isn't acceptable currency then that's just laziness or poor management. No excuses

    Next Month - So soon!

    I just phoned Braehead Arena to confirm a couple of details and they said they didn't have any confirmation of an event being on that weekend? I told them it was Collectormania and they said they had been in touch but nothing was booked or confirmed :no:

     

    Is the event possibly being moved?

    TrailerFest

    Thanks to those who are also sticking up for it. As said it was entirely possible they could have got a trailer for a really big film, or lots of indie trailers.

     

    I also expected many trailers for TV shows. A whole host of new US shows are starting in Sept. Also could have had new doctor who trailer or Downton Abbey or any other popular British dramas

    Perhaps I'm passionate about trailers and upcoming films? I'm not into getting autographs but I wouldn't come on and say "why are you spending all that time and money for a squiggle on a piece of paper"

     

    Lots of people attend conventions for all sorts of reasons - this was my main one

    I'm going to create a separate topic later that details every single problem that someone has raised.

     

    The post will be edited and kept up to date with links to various other threads where need be. I'll go back to Saturday posts and capture them all to date (or whatever hasn't been deleted)

     

    It will be more of a reference point than a discussion topic. Helps track them all too

    Can I ask what happened the advertised 'TrailerFest' ? So disappointing.

     

    This was the thing I was most looking forward to in the event when advertised so booked my tickets for the Sunday (as originally advertised) and was happy.

     

    Joke Number 1 - Last week when the schedule was published the Trailers were moved to the Saturday. Train ticket from Scotland wasted

     

    Joke Number 2 - decided at the cost of an extra £100 for train fare and £80 for accommodation to make it down for the Saturday and catch the TrailerFest. Made it to it yesterday and it was such a letdown. ONLY 3 TRAILERS PLAYED ON LOOP?

     

    Joke Number 3 - The three trailers had already been released on YouTube ages ago.

     

    Everyone there was livid. Felt sorry for the staff. I appreciate it was a 'free event' but still think it's wrong to advertise it as something it's not and for something so poor. It was the reason I had gone down and feel so disappointed.
