  1. Hello, I know this is short notice but I'm in a bit of a bind about the bags/security situation! I have an art folder which isn't see through where I'm packing some art prints to get signed and autograph wallets, is that going to be a problem or do other attendees bring lots of those? My next question is if there is a limit on bags being brought into the venue? Because I was going to bring my backpack also to carry around merch and personal items etc. Can I bring both or is it one bag per person? I just don't want to travel all the way up there tomorrow and get denied entry.
  2. Can anyone help at all? I have a friend who is planning on attending the Sunday with me and we can't see any Sunday Entry tickets on Eventbrite. Normally they say if they're sold out or not on there but there just isn't any option at all. Weirdly it says there are Saturday tickets still available but Showmasters said they'd sold out of those. Don't know if this is Eventbrite being tricky or if Sunday tickets are all gone!
  3. Don't know if Tobey Maguire would be interested? Would be great to meet a Spider-Man!
  4. Just had a lightbulb go off! Wonder if there's any chance of maybe getting some Sopranos guests down? I:E Edie Falco, Michael Imperioli, Tony Sirico, Steven Van Zandt, Vincent Pastore, Joe Pantoliano, Steve Schirripa, Dominic Chianese or maybe even Lorraine Bracco! Would love to meet somebody who worked on that magnificent show!
  5. My dream guests for Spring would be, in no particular order... - Kyle MacLachlan - Mark Hamill - Linda Hamilton - Malcolm McDowell - Uma Thurman - Laura Dern - Steve Buscemi
  6. I met six guests in total autographs when I came on just the Saturday, I only went for one day with some friends (Our first ever con I might add!) Four of the guests I met were top priorities, the other two were to make up for not meeting Peter Capaldi who I was desperate to meet but couldn't because his queue only ended up doing the diamond passes of which there was about three hundred which sucked :/ dunno if anyone else couldn't get to him? Anyways, here's how all my meetings went down! (I've put them in the order of when I met them). James Caan - James Caan wasn't having a good day at his table, he wasn't doing personalisations and seemed very hot and bothered, at one point his manager was helping him walk to the lift, he's obviously getting old. Everybody on this forum is saying he was very nice during photo ops. That being said, I met him relatively early in the day and he was nice enough, I said "Hello Mr. Caan very nice to meet you, I'm a big fan." He said "Thank you" and signed the photo and that was that. David Duchovny - I was so desperate to meet this guy, I am a huge X-Files fan and was gonna meet him whatever the cost. I can't stress how worth it it is to get to there early, I got a good VQ ticket for Duchovny and only spent ten minutes queueing for him. He didn't seem busy at all that day (even during his talk). When it got to my turn I said "Hello" and he said "Hi Hugh" and that fatally killed me to death. Just didn't expect it, obvs he'd seen the name the staff had written down for my personalisation! Anyway I said "I think you're great as Agent Mulder." I think he said "Thank you." can't exactly remember. I said goodbye and hope you enjoy the rest of your day and we shook hands. I was very close to tears just because I couldn't believe I'd met him. I get what people are saying about him being a bit quiet though, I think he's just not used to doing conventions. Mind you, I went to his talk later and during that he really seemed to perk up, think it just took time to get in the swing of it. He was quite funny. Anybody who was at the talk, I asked the Twin Peaks question! Overall I was very happy to meet the guy and I have a great autograph to commemorate that. Noel Clarke - Now this guy was probably the nicest guest I met, so so lovely! I was there to see him because of Kidulthood, also being a Doctor Who fan. I said "Kidulthood is one of my favourite films for me and my Brother to watch." he said "Thanks man, I appreciate it." I gave him my copy of the DVD to sign. I managed to quickly ask him about weather he always planned to do sequels to Kidulthood which he answered, he said "It wasn't the plan but that's just the way it went." Then he took a quick picture and I said "Take care" and he said "You too man". Honestly, he is a diamond! Lance Henriksen - I don't think anything is more pure than hearing Lance Henriksens deep voice up close! He had a big queue on Saturday which I managed to get into later in the day. I approached him and he just smiled so much and said "Hey buddy" upon shaking my hand. At this point I was more comfortable with having conversations with the guests so I asked, how was he enjoying comic con. And he said something which nearly made me tear up, "I love it, I'm surrounded by my fans and all my friends, Jason Momoa is here and he's a good friend, we're working but we just love it." He gave me a really nice personalisation on my photo and told me "Be careful it doesn't smudge!" as I left. Sweet sweet guy. I saw a post about some guys bumping into him at a pub afterwards and hanging out with him over drinks! Matthew Wood - Upon realising I wasn't gonna meet Capaldi realistically I decided to meet the voice behind a personal favourite Star Wars character. Matthew Wood was really friendly and he seems to really love to be recognised as a character. He did the line "What's the situation, Captain?" in the voice to me which was surreal! He asked me how I'd like my autograph and we had a small chat about the weather! Sean Young - I met Sean Young just before I left because I had money left and if I didn't I would've kicked myself. Sean Young was very warm and kind and asked what I'd like on my photo. I asked her about Blade Runner 2049 and how she felt about being in it and she said "I think they messed it up! I thought they blew it, I think it was silly what they did to my character." All I could say was fair enough. I got a quick selfie and had a very nice goodbye actually. BONUS: Julian Glover - I went up with my friend who was getting an auto from Julian Glover, he's such an old flirt! He greeted my friend as "Pretty one" and kissed her hand. Sweet guy, his niece had the same name as my friend. Rory McCann - I went to Rory's Q&A and asked him a pretty basic question in comparison to others. Anyone else who went to that talk though, wasn't it hilarious! The three of those guys (Isaac Hempstead Wright and Staz Nair who were also there) were brilliant! Somebody opened by asking Rory about the Hound vs. Brienne and he responded in character with "Yeah, that big bird bitch!" Later on somebody asked all of them if you could die anyway in Game of Thrones, how would you go and he just said "Overdose!" I asked him if there was any character who he'd love to see the hound fight, who would it be? He said Meryn Trant. Honestly that talk was one of my fav bits of con, just a laugh!
  7. My dream guests would be (in no particular order) - Kyle MacLachlan - Mark Hamill - Linda Hamilton - Malcolm McDowell - Uma Thurman - Steve Buscemi Thanks for a great Con this year though!!!
