    Films watched in 2024

    Can't believe this topic hasn't been made already. It's almost like the forum is dying.

     

    I've just watched Poor Things. Definitely enjoyed it! It feels very 'cinema' without being so artsy-fartsy as to end up being pretentious. I've never really thought much of Emma Stone but she certainly showed off her range here.

    My dad has just told me that the Great British Beer Festival, which is usually held in Olympia in August, has been cancelled for 2024 because they can't guarantee the venue will be free due to building work going on around then. Anyone know if this means LFCC will be affected?

    Shoutout to the Saturday staff

    in London Comic Con Winter 2023

    Posted

    Just wanted to put this out there. The crew members manning Olivia's autograph queue on Saturday, which was very out of hand and growing too long, were incredibly calm and professional and kind. I was second to last in the queue when they decided to cut it off until it went down a little so I was talking to them a bit and got to see them turn people away, repeatedly explaining that the queue was currently closed and to try again later. Most people were understanding of this but one couple in particular stood out to me because they were instantly argumentative, waving their diamond passes around and shouting that they should be allowed into the queue and that this was ridiculous, bla bla bla. The guy behind me just stood his ground and repeated what he'd already told them, the queue needed to go down and then they could join. When I was nearer the front of the queue and they opened the line back up again, the couple showed up again and the man started shouting about how it wasn't fair that other people were getting to join the queue before them (you both wandered off and came back, of course people would join ahead of you in that case... you're not special, guy). I don't think I would have kept my cool if I was in charge of running the queues, so I just wanted to shoutout to those guys because they did a really good job trying to keep things calm and fair in a very stressful queue.

    And another shoutout to the guy running Olivia's photoshoot queue. My summer ticket rolled over but no longer had the batch info attached, so when I went to the AM shoot I was told I'd have to come back in the afternoon. Fair enough. Came back for the PM shoot and the guy there told me that without batch info, I'd have to wait until the end of the shoot, but if I could find the original batch info he'd see what he could do. So I found the original confirmation email from when I purchased the original ticket for summer, which showed I was in batch 2, and when I showed him he said I could go queue up with the batch 1s after the diamonds and golds had gone through. He didn't have to do that, and I was expecting him to just tell me to wait for batch 2 to be called so I really appreciated that he did that!


    Also sales desk staff were great, helped me sort out my Tony Todd photoshoot ticket with no issues. Everyone I spoke to was very nice and professional yesterday!
