Surely Sean Chapman could be tracked down! And I'm sure because Andrew Roninson is there it would make Sean a popular guest with all the Hellraiser posters being signed?
Met him at the Theatre last year - got him to sign my Hellraiser stuff - really nice chap
-
I really wouldn't be looking to use them even if you can get hold of them . So many stories about pre-orders going missing or just not got . From the outside , they appear to be more bothered about other things maybe now

Mickey Dolenz - never intended to be the best vocalist in the band...but was! Poor old Davey!!
Would love to meet the Monkees. They often don't get the credit they deserve for the music they made. Mike Nesmith was a talented songwriter as well. I love "Papa Gene's Blues"!
I'd love to meet these guys!
Been reading on another forum some guy met three of these last week - one of them was very unfriendly , wouldn't sign anything - see if you can guess which one ?

So far :-
AMANDA TAPPING
LEONARD NIMOY
maybes :-
John De Lancie
Rachel Lutrell

i think that may have been me you spoke to who said he was rubbish... we took each others pics for Ernest borgnine?
anyway, some may argue that you are only really paying for the item to be signed, not a photo of/with and not a chat BUT ive never had an experience this bad before, real waste of money. More frustrating then that i read how he was like a completely different person on the Sunday. Live and learn i guess
Yes , it was you I talked to - and glad I did .
I know we are only paying for the auto , but even Dick Turpin talked to the people he robbed
I have met a couple of people and it has been obvious that it was a mutual dislike immediately , but I even got conversation out of them - probably something like " why are you getting that signed ? I don't like that ! why don't you just ***** ( inserts GO HOME ) "
Manners cost nothing , but the person who gets the good meeting remembers it for a long time
-
I liked her , thought she was quite nice and friendly . Maybe not as friendly as Ernie or George but still enjoyed meeting her
-
I decided that I was gonna get his auto , because he was Mickey Rooney , not because I loved him in anything . I wangled my money about , decided who I was gonna miss , and went up early on Saturday . I paid my money , picked my piccy , then asked for a pen to write my name on the back of the ticket so he could personalise . The photo lady said he wasn't personalising , so I asked for my money back .
He made it easy for me really , made my mind up quickly - I know he is Mickey Rooney , but can only remember him in National Velvet , looked on IMDB and didn't remember him from anything I liked that he was in .
Then I talked to a guy who'd met him earlier who said he wasn't looking up , wasn't speaking and his auto was a squiggle - and knew I'd made the right decision . I love getting the old STARS , but have to have a reason , have to like them in something or for something , and in the end I couldn't think of a reason to get Mickey .
I have also read on his IMDB page quotes he is said to have made about Ernest Borgnine , who he doesn't appear to like a lot . For Autographica to put him next to Ernest seemed a bit tactless , especially when Ernie was so busy .
All in all , a good £25 saved .

I bet she really regrets doing this photoshoot - when she was at the other event, she seemed a little exasperated with the amount of shots from this shoot and the infamous 'American flag' shoot guys were bringing up to her...
I don't think she is THAT bothered - at the first of her events , they were selling these photos for her

And don't forget we still NEED Clancy Brown , William Sadler and Bill Paxton - lots of people have been shouting for these guys for a LONG time
-
Richard Dean Anderson - got a lovely Stargate poster that will NEVER be complete until he signs it
Sigourney Weaver - ditto with my Alien DVD cover
-
One of my biggest wants - and it's about time he came over for a show - some of us have been asking for YEARS for him
-
I think we have been pushing for both Clancy Brown and William Sadler for long enough - surely it's time you brought one of them over by now - they have to be two of the most asked for guests
-
Would take PAUL Anderson every time ... especially if he brought his lovely wife with him
-
You missed the fantastic Time After Time , also starring Malcolm McDowell - if I was coming down and had some brass , I would get something signed by both of these guys , as much as I love Omen
-
Either a pic of Lea Thompson as she is, or one of her from Howard the Duck, if there is one.
LLAP
If you can't get one from Howard The Duck , I have a signed one - an official movie still
-
Saves me a bit of money, but DAMN! She is a pretty rare guest over here, have to try and get to whatever event you get her to attend now.
I've met her three times in UK in about two years. She's not that rare!
Well , how wonderful for you
You must have met her at Cons - she hasn't done any signing shows , where she is VERY rare .
-
Oh no.
Manchester is very difficult for me to get to. It's a real shame SM couldn't get him for C13 or CMidlands.
Why , is that Nottingham , Alabama then ? Do they not have buses to up north like they have them to Birmingham ? Or is it that they go through Sherwood Forest and you'd rather not travel on that road ?
Maanchester is nearer than London , but that is easier ? Or is it that you'd rather not go to Manchester so feel you have to whinge ?
-

Donald Sutherland - The Italian Job , Salem's Lot , An American Haunting , Invasion Of The Body Snatchers , Outbreak and loads more films
Christopher Eccleston - Doctor Who , Cracker , Heroes , 28 Days Later , The Others , eXistenZ
Loads more to come
-
I need to go to Manchester on my own too so stop moaning lol.Why dont we take bets? Ill bet its someone to do with either Star Trek/Red Dwarf/Heroes/Dr Who/Lost ........its bound to be.But those of us in the real world want someone whos a living legend.
A living legend - do you mean like Superman , or maybe Godzilla .
Gee , I'd like to meet him too
And not because I actually want to meet him , but because I love the film he's in . I don't give a stuff about him , or any of them in person - they can all stay in the real world and leave me in my own little one where all the TV programmes are great and clouds are made of chocolate because it never rains
I love my life , so bring on Godzilla
-
I know there's very little chance but what about maybe Michael Keaton? Val Kilmer? Someone like that i know it's a slim chance but has Keaton ever even been approached?
I know you've had Val Kilmer at other Collectormania's any chance of getting him up to Manchester?
please?
Oh and if the guests back out will you at least tell us who they were? (the2your currently negotiating with)
You would have more chance of William Shakespeare being announced as a guest than Val Kilmer - he may have been down as a guest at LFCC , but failed to turn up , and I , for one , am still waiting patiently for my signed picture
As for them telling us who we didn't get - despite Jason saying we would know either way , I doubt that he will say anything , not really professional and he still needs a working relationship with these guys so he can persuade them to come over to some other show - much as I'm sure we'd all like to know .
Can I also say to Too Tall ( about something he said on the 2nd page ) , that I was at GMex 1 and the pre-bookers were ALL let in before the pay on the dayers ( which I'm sure was against the law - everyone was told that earlybird was from 9pm and some of us got in after 9.15 ) .
I'm not nit picking but it seems alot of the guests are linked to shows like Lost, Heroes and Star Trek. I'm sure you understand not everyone is a fan of those. What about us poor old fans of comic movies (read Batman)
And can I also say about this that the most probable reason that we MAY be getting these extra , big names from the States is because a bunch of these types of TV Programmes have had to stop production because of the strikes , freeing previously unavailable actors and giving them a chance to come over and meet their fans

The only ep worth bothering about is Countrycide !
You forgot the first bit of the line , Kris , where it says : In my opinion .....

While I may slightly agree with the free kids in the photo under 12 thing , how about a bit of a compramise ?
So all these families who use their young kids to get better posed photos at the signing , or free autographs and longer with the guests ( you know who you are
) stop doing that and annoying us who are sometimes lucky if the actor looks up when signing our autographs , and we will feel better about you getting your kids free in the official photo shoots that we have to pay full price for Does that seem like something we can agree upon , or work with ?
-
OK - my guess is :-
David Tennant - won't be recording Doctor Who at that time , and enjoys signing .
Wes Craven - will certainly make me and a lot of people very happy .
Rutger Hauer - did one show years ago , bout time he did another .
I'll come and sort out my Gold Ticket on Friday or Saturday , thanks Jason .

Edward Woodward has recently had an accident at home , fell down the stairs , and is extremely unlikely to go anywhere at the moment . He was due to do theatre with his wife any time now , but this has been put back till next year .
Sorry guys ... and I hope he gets well soon .
