Omg Matthew Lillard made my day! Had a photo with him on saturday which was running VERY behind schedule. Id had a bad afternoon and by this point i was close to giving up and going home. But i stayed and went in and i think he could tell how i was feeling as he said"fu!!ing hug me" and gave me the tightest hug ever. Really made my day! What a lovely bloke!

Wow sounds like you had a really amazing day! Wish i had got to meet Tom Ellis! I had a mixed bag this year..
I started the day with Rey mysterio, i was getting his autograph for a friends son who could not attend due to his disability. He had a sign up saying "no photos" but when i explained who the auto was for he happily let me take some photos of him signing to show the little boy. Im not a wrestling fan myself but he was a true gentleman.
Next up was devon Murray, who was lovely and very kind to my daughter who is autistic and was very shy.
Then it was Robert Patrick, he talked for ages and asked me lots of questions and was also really nice to my daughter and very understanding. It was great to meet him.
First photo op of the day was Tom Felton who engaged in a bit of playful banter when we mentioned we were hufflepuffs, he really made us laugh.
Next photo was blake harrsion, he seemed really down to earth and did the dance from the movie with us. Then as we were leaving he apologised for not spending more time with us!
Autograph/photo op with Jason Momoa was a huge disappointment, he wouldnt chat and ignored my questions at the table, and gave off a general bad vibe. This was the same during the photo, which was a shame as heard such good things about him. But then it was kind of crazy with the amount of people waiting to see him,maybe he was as peed off as we were.
Brendan Fraser was a star! We were delayed going in and so everyone was a bit flustered(understatement) yet he was calm and was signing to the deaf people in front of me- what a legend. It was truly magical meeting him as i grew up watching him.
Saving the best till last, Matthew Lillard! Omg! Another one who was running seriously behind, and by this point it was the end of the day, i was exhausted, emotional, fed up and close to tears. I think i mustve looked a right mess because upon meeting matthew he just shouted at me "fu!!ing hug me!" And gave me the tightest squeeziest hug you can imagine! Really perked me up and absolutely made my day! Would totally neet him again, and hope one day i can! Really lovely bloke!

I have the same thing with my husband as CookieS - so you think going up to Jason and saying, let's make hubby jealous, might result in a fun photo? :)

Thanks everyone for your replies! As he sounds quite fun and easy going im tempted to let him take the lead with what pose we do.

If possible, the printed picture option is better than one on your phone as you're not supposed to have phones out in the shoot area and you don't want to be made even more flustered by having to defend yourself to a steward.
Thats a fair point, hadnt thought of that!

Unless Jason has had a 180 Degree Turnaround since I met him last he is very easygoing and definitely up for funny Pictures, even often initiates the fun pose.
I can't promise you won't be as red as a beetroot - it's happened to me before too - but I do promise he won't have you removed by security.
Visual aid like a photo definitely helps. Normally I Always say "talk fast", but of Course that's easier said than done while you are nervous.
Thats so reassuring! Thank you! He sounds like great fun!

Best thing to do would be find a photo of the pose you want, and either print it out or have it on your phone ready for your turn with the guest. Then show them and ask ‘is it ok if we do this?’
I did this with Billie Piper for the Doctor Who dvd cover of her and Tennant back to back and she automatically knew what I wanted and was like ‘yes! Let’s do it!’
still, photos are rushed, but if you’re prepared, you’ve got a good chance of it happening.
Thats a good idea, thank you! Im super nervous, which i havnt been before with any other guest!

Sorry if this has already been asked, but i have a dilemma and while im not a con newbie im hoping some of the more confident attendees can help me...
How do you go about asking a guest to do a pose for a photo? I always feel like you dont have much time during a photo op and i know that ill feel hurried and bumble over my words and probably make a huge fool of myself. Obviously something i dont want to do!
So my husband and i have a running joke about me meeting jason moma and how "ill run off with him" LOL so i thought it would be funny to do a pose with maybe one hand on his chest and one leg up wrapped round him (if that makes sense,its so hard to describe poses lol) do you think this would be too much/cheeky/embarrassing??? Or if you think hed also find this funny (ive seen in other peoples photos that hes quite game for a laugh) how do i ask him to do this without sounding creepy/idiotic and going as red as a beetroot? And how do i do this in the limited time frame that we have?
Im way more stressed about this than i should be,can you tell?

Ohhh definitely go ahead and give it a try! I would absolutely recommend it now, that being said I was REALLY nervous to ask. I did that thing kids do where they say "maybe, possibly if you don't mind, if it's not too much trouble"
most wrestlers especially if they've spent time in WWE will have received a lot of training around meeting fans, it makes them excellent people to meet at cons!
Oh i will most definitely be like that! Lol

Two years ago ago I met William Regal and the following Friday my buddy was getting married, and I was his best man! I was super nervous to ask but I had my photo with him, went to get it signed and then plucked up the courage to say "Don't worry if not but it's my buddy's wedding in 6 days and it would be amazing if I could play a recorded message for them from you?" and to my complete relief he said "yes of course, what are their names?" and to this day he has been my favourite guest because he didn't make it seem like a big ask at all.
RVD was a legend too, really pleasant to chat to!
What a lovely story! Im getting an autograph for my friends son as he cant attend due to severe autism and cerebral palsy and its his birthday the week after lfcc. I have been contemplating asking for a a happy birthday video as it would make his dreams come true,but didnt want to be cheeky! So good to read that others have asked similar and been successful!

Im really hoping that with linda Hamilton on board they will pull it out the bag. I liked genesys as as a sequal but 3 and4 were naff. I actually prefer 2 to the original !!

With the "my agenda" section, how do we know which session to add? As it doesnt say which batches will be called in which sessions?
Thrilled to have the app,but will still lug around my trusty comic con folder! Hahaha
-
So how does everyone feel about the new terminator film? Im personally thrilled that we are getting sarah connor back in all her badass glory. But just hoping the storyline lives up to expectation, as apparently it ignores all the altered timelines that were created in the previous films.
So thoughts? Feelings?

Sorry if this sounds dumb... we will be needing to collect an access pass for my daughter, do we queue in the main queue first for her pass or collect it somewhere else and then skip the main big queue? Help much appreciated thank you

Just a heads up Cookie but one of the hard and fast rules of the forum is that you cannot discuss other non Showmasters events I'm afraid.
I did not know this, whoops! Duly noted!

I've been attending conventions since 2002 and started by going to Buffy events. Although I collect various autographs Buffy & Angel are still the main reason I go. I collect autographs from anyone on the shows,, even if it was only one episode.

Ive seen a few online but never actually been to a specific buffy con(although it is on my to do list!) Im a late starter to the con scene and didnt attend my 1st till 2017! It was a revelation!

Hey all,
This is my first time using the forum, so apologies if this doesnt work!
I am hoping to meet some other Buffy fans! We seem to be a rare breed these days ! Ive met the odd fan at various cons (Vampire willow if youre on this hello ) but would love to actually make a few like minded friends! The only people i know who like Buffy,like it because i introduced them, so would love a few hardcore fans who i can proper geek out with!
Thanks all! Oh & fingers crossed for a buffy guest announcement
Photos! Let’s see them!!
in London Film & Comic Con 2019

Ahhhh thank you!
