Even just taller stands for the signs so they can be seen from a distance... and perhaps big bold red lettering instead of scrawling a small faint number.

Is anyone having problems signing up for the cosplay masquerade? The link on the LFCC site goes to Cardiff's registration which has now closed.

I've got a great memory of meeting him. It was in January last year, on my birthday, I had just been to see The Force Awakens at the Science Museum in London (70mm projection showing), and on the way home I was waiting for a train on the Piccadilly Line and saw him sitting on a bench reading a paper! I said "Your are Ian McDiarmid aren't you?" and he replied with a smile "Yes" and I told him what a massive fan of his I was. Made my birthday!!

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.

Hi all, what's the score with all these incidents people are sharing about their experience with meeting her? Is she really that bad? So glad I saved my money by giving her a miss if it's true!

The Rogue One Poster was also on sale at a stall, they had loads.
OOOO, will have a look for them cheers!, Do you know how much and what stall :-)
I don't know how much, but considering they probably just scanned an original and printed by the dozen, easy money for them whatever.
It was downstairs from the signing area, I'd say go back down those stairs and keep walking about 2/3 of the hall as I think the isle was pretty much parallel with the stairs, but I'm not 100% sure, There may have been suicide squad banners above. I saw a framed one first, then a huge loose pile on the table.
If only the stalls had numbers, like trade shows and official events, be so much easier to tell you!
They were selling the Rogue One posters for £5. I was lucky to be at the 'other event' to get an original poster handed out by Kathleen Kennedy, and in comparison the £5 ones on sale were smaller and poor quality, very grainy and washed out colours.

Frame them and put them on the wall, they look so cool and nice to look at that way. I don't see the point in storing them in some folder that probably doesn't get looked at properly, they just become a 'collection' in that regard. Each to their own though.
-
Great!! Definitely deserved one of those 'announcement coming soon' though

You can get them printed at those places but the 8x10 sizes usually take an hour or so to do, or at least that's what they will tell you to do and come back later on. If it's clearly a photo from a TV show or movie you might get someone who moans and asks if you have permission to use the photo or if you personally took the photo, if that is the case just ask for your money back and go to a photo shop and get it done. Ordering online is never a problem though but as you say you might not have time unless you order online and ask to collect the photos in person on the day.
If your photo is obviously from a film/TV etc, be prepared to be denied unless you can prove you have copyright. My mother works in an Asda photoshop and if she gets caught printing copyrighted photos she can be fined thousands of pounds, go to court and lose her job. If you "get someone who moans and asks", it's because they would rather be working than on benefits and are therefore ensuring they work within the law.
I've used Asda for a couple of years and printed film posters/film stills/celebrities etc no problem. Must just be your branch. What if you're standing next to a film poster, or even next to a celebrity, they won't even print that? That's harsh man!

He doesn't even sign at premieres so the liklehood of him attending a UK convention is absolutely 0%!

So, how many Star Wars guests were at the event? Of which, the majority were in ESB too.
Unfortunately, I know of one first time signer who was unable to attend due to illness - but that happened on the day itself. I think that in this day and age, finding a first time signer (not just UK, but worldwide) for a 35 year old film is pretty damn near incredible.
Now, of course, that probably doesn't make up for the fact that George Lucas wasn't able to come and have afternoon tea with everyone who wanted more Star Wars attendance, but I think some of y'all are maybe a little bit out of line directly accusing Showmasters of making intentionally false claims.
Also, anyone ever found it interesting that the majority of dissenting voices around here have a relatively small number of posts.
Just saying...
Just what is the significance of the conjectual 'observation' that there is apparently a link between users and number of posts??
Showmaster's original announcement stated "There will be first time signers and many things to do and see and opportunities to celebrate our love for this wonderful film."
Okay so we had first time signers, but what about the rest of it? Many things to do? Many things to see? Many opportunities to celebrate our love for this wonderful film?
At this rate, what is stopping Showmasters from announcing a MAJOR Goonies celebration next year for example, with many signers, things to do and see, and opportunities to celebrate. And then ONLY having some minor actors attending (the sheriff, Troy's friend #1, Data's father) with nothing else Goonies-related whatsoever.
Unprofessional and very misleading.

50 quid! Crikey. He was at the Mission Impossible 5 Premiere the other night. I never got his signature, see I could have had 50 quid haha Even if it was signed to me. Crazy.
I never thought to get his signature, I said hello and snapped photos. Maybe that makes me a mug for not asking haha
Dealers DO NOT want personalisations so surely by having a 'personalisations only' rule would make more sense to block out the dealers who are just looking to re-sell?
Although on eBay the other day I saw a photo signed by Eddie Izzard with a guy's name on it - they were asking £50 for it too!
There's a big difference between what people are ASKING for on ebay and watch they're actually seling for. I'd be surprised if there were any bids/offers for Eddie Izzard's at £50!

Sorry, but that's a totally wrong example. The bread wasn't missing, it just wasn't what you thought it would be.
I'll bear that in mind next time I announce to my friends that I'm mates with Kiera Knightley so come to my house to meet her - then just have a cardboard cutout of her standing in my living room.
"Things don't turn out that way" is ridiculous reasoning. Imagine getting on a plane to Italy only to find it's landed in Russia instead because "things don't turn out that way"!!!
False advertising to encourage spending, shame on you Showmasters.
-
I don't understand how people can support 'no personalisations ' yet gripe about dealers. Dealers DO NOT want personalisations so surely by having a 'personalisations only' rule would make more sense to block out the dealers who are just looking to re-sell?
I met Christian Bale this year and he always insists on personalisations for this very reason (not that I was complaining!)

This years event
in London Film & Comic Con 2021

There is no way this is going to go ahead, we're not even CLOSE to having mass gathering at big events. How exactly would meeting the guests work? Stay 2 metres away from them while they wear a face mask, hardly a great experience of meeting someone is it?
