  1. Yes, it works just the same as it does for Standard photo's if you have had them before, and the batches are just to control the queue so that everyone doesn't turn up at once. The DP pass will have the batch number on when you collect it (unless something has gone wrong when they issue them).
  2. Very nice guest announcement. Not one for me but a lot of people will be happy.
  3. I do frustrate myself with getting annoyed with stuff like this as I know they do it for reasons, it's just you can't help thinking 'was there no other way?'. Like couldn't they have said that the Preds ship sent a signal ahead to start the defrost process, seeing as it was entirely automated anyway, and that way they could say the eggs were laid and developing ahead of their arrival. But alas, film logic will be film logic. And agreed about the PredAlien pregnancy thing. Again, we know nothing about Predator reproduction, so maybe they do it that way, but it was stupid. The only other film in the franchise I hate as much as this one is The Predator.
  4. I think this is them https://www.firstchoicememorabilia.com/?fbclid=IwAR0SVakicds60NcUuBFxcYC-xjdY-ujGuZG74CGqqW1DEhOTMZAD_w-VMb8
  5. Old ones but AVP1 and AVP2. I've seen both before but I was bored and it's been a long time. AVP 1 isn't terrible but it's far from great and it does suffer from some plot inconsistencies (saying the maps show the pyramid is directly under the whaling station but then showing the 30 degree Predator made tunnel runs from the town to the cavern with it in disproves that location) and some annoying points - we know from inference that the species the chest bursters incubate in can influence their final form/abilities, but the writers made it all happen far too quickly when it's not a new species they were incubating in to explain their seriously rapid development. OK we are never given a specific timeline for these things to happen in, but it seems like they went from egg hatching to fully developed Xenomorph extraordinarily quickly. The queen wasn't unfrozen until they activated the step plate in the entrance, but we are shown that within what can only be a few hours, the face huggers were fully developed in the eggs, they attached and laid the chestbursters who almost immediately emerged from their hosts and then they fully grew within 30 mins? (Given the archaeologist posited that the pyramid reoriented every 10 minutes after that phase started and there was only 2/3 alterations). AVP2. There's pretty much nothing positive I can say about this film. I know the darkness issue is pretty infamous, and the stated reasons for that, but lets face it, even if it was reasonably lit it'd still have been awful. The directors said it was a combination of low budget and wanting to keep the aliens all in darkness so that you couldn't see it was actors in suits, but all of the other films had the same issue and did it so much better. You can keep them hidden for the most part, and still light it well so that the audience isn't left wondering if they need to go for an eye test afterwards.
  6. I know where you were this weekend Nice auto's though and Smile Time was one of the best episodes!
  7. I know this reply is late in the day but that other cancelled event is also a Showmasters event. They run the Brick (Lego) events.
  8. We can't help much I'm afraid, you would unfortunately just have to keep contacting the shop and asking for the tracking info. If you are on Facebook, the guy who does the send ins runs this group so you could post there if you don't get any joy https://www.facebook.com/groups/249654405921178. I hope it turns up.
  9. Agreed, I saw it this morning. It was really well made and deserves all the kudos.
  10. Might be worth emailing in to see if they have it. The crew member manning the desk may have handed it in.
  11. There have been other cases with comic guests where they charge, and charge higher prices, if they are a bigger name, and it does happen with the actor/artists as well some times, but it would have been good if they had listed her price in advance.
  12. I managed to get Paul easily yesterday which was good, doesn't he have the tiniest signature though! He had no queue when I got to his table so it was a quick visit. This may be common knowledge, but I'll add it in case it isn't, but Paul said the cover of Goth Opera was originally much bloodier but WH Smiths complained so they had to tone it down!
