bearing in mind that three quarters-give or take-of the hall were left empty,i thiunk something should have been done to put all that floorspace to good use.
i have plenty of ideas.
FUnny you should say that, cos last year there was a big space in the corner and I saw a kid playing with a little ball... I soooo desperately wanted to kick off a mini game of soccer... that would have been fun!
bruce willis!! photoshoot!!!!
Morrena Baccarin
I second those 2!
Also, I know it's a TV show and nothing really to do with Sci-FI, comics or movies, and probably a total long shot but I'd like to see anyone from Scrubs! Particularly Zach Braff, or Sarah Chalke, but any one of the cast would be ideal.

Not so sure about the dates myself... I thought last years dates were great, Right in the middle of a Heat Wave! which was a new experience for me in itself being from Ireland, don't get that kinda heat too often or for too long... I'm thinkin of going to this one too, depending on guests and all that but me and my friend wanna go back to England cos we had a good laugh last time so we might base it around LFCC again.
That and as someone mentioned, it's not great for those starting their first week of school, but it's a weekend anyway so it shouldn't cos too much bother.
The real reason for me is though, last year it was in the middle of the Summer, and it absolutely made my Summer... I was grinning for the rest of the Summer afterwards, and I think the fact that was in Summer gave me a bit more of an appreciation for it.

I gave it a 9/10 too. Nothing's perfect, I had a really great Saturday. I can't fault anything with it, except maybe that cafe place, super expensive and their sandwiches were crap... What happened to the Chicken and Stuffing!? but that's nothing to do with Showmasters
Id disagree actually, the venue is chosen by Showmasters who take a lot into consideration when picking a venue im sure. The plusses obviously out way the minusses making a great venue but the food isnt up to much and its overpriced. You cant have everything though can you.......but ultimately the venue is chosen by showmasters so it is something to do with them. Not sure Id change the venue due to the food though, there are always pubs and other options in the outside area. Afterall it is a Film and Comic Con, not a restaurant......
Oh yeah totally... I mean it's just real minor thing, but I got hungry and had to go outside of Earl's Court to do something about it, that was my only particular problem with the event itself. And yeah, it's definitely no reason to change that, I'm not saying it was a huge problem I just thought it was worth mentioning.

Rachel remembered my friend from that same "unmentionable" event last November
Mind you, the fact that my friend was dressed as a Wraith probably had something to do with it - although she did go on to talk about how she remembered that she had not been able to recognise her out of makeup the following day and how surprised she'd been to see what the person under the makeup really looked like! They were chatting away for ages you guys didn't happen to be walkin the streets of London with the Dr. Who guy? and asked someone to take a photo with your disposable camera??
I've never met any of em before so thew quick answer would be no... me and my friend did go to see Rachel twice and said we'd be back later if we got bored, but we went to her talk before we could go back. She said we were adorable
which put a smile on my face... But if it counts, she did remember us from being there a couple of hours before hand.Yep, that was us
We were about to head back to where we were crashing when Dea (Craig the Wraith) said, "I want a picture by the TARDIS" so we popped out the front of Earl's Court station and Doctor Who guy was already there. We had a good laugh doing the photos - if it wa you that took photos for us, thanks!!!
It was me!!! Did it come out well? I hope it did... I try to pride myself on being a good photographer... We were watching the England game outside the Ice Cream shop! I thought there was gonna be riots when they got knocked out.

who's the main man?
-
Holly and Ebony were cool... They were the first people we saw! dunno how anyone missed em... they're very nice and actually, very approachable... Ya know that whole thing bout hot chicks being intimidating, but these women weren't in anyway intimidating...
-
Rachel Luttrell!!! She was just superb! very nice indeed! love her to bits now.
-
Rachel Luttrel cos Teyla's my favourite in SGA.

OK, let me start off by saying I loathe football and never watch it, but I really do think it would be good to see the match being played on a big screen there... I hate football, but I do think it is actually a good idea.
-
I don't think so.
Lousy... kinda stranded now... You could try to sell it as someone else said... But I doubt you'd get the full price for it. unless someone on the forum's willing to buy it.

Just to add
Please Rachel don't you cancel aswell
If she does, I'm not going, gold pass or not.
Same... I have no gold pass, but i'm the same.
I'm just dreading having to tell my best friend-- she bought the pass for me because Torri was going to be there and she worked really hard to finish the Weir portrait she did for me in time for the con.
Not going to be fun.
the joys of it all... but there's nothing you can do about it... It's a real, real kick in the teeth for you especially... Can you get the Gold pass refunded?

shame... good luck to her. hope the movie's good.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I'm happy for her, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I was coming for her, for Sean Partrick Flannery and for Don Davis. I'm VERY HAPPY Rachel Lutrell will be there, but I've met her before.
I was coming for her and Rachel, and that's it. I've never been to a convention before,
I'm the same... cept for the crowd and the other thing... But I was goin for Rachel numero uno and Torri, and Don S. Davis... just means one less autograph. Here's to hoping no one else pulls out.
Yeah... because if Rachel pulls out, then gold pass or not, I'd probably just go off to Pride instead and not bother even showing up at the convention...
yeah if she goes... i go... Have a laugh in London with the lads and big bro instead.

we'll just have to wait and see... that's a crying shame that she can't attend, or at least, may not be able to??

Finally got a decent picture. (probably due to the new camera I just brought)
Here's what i'll be wearing next week.
lookin good man, lookin good!
-
Getting an A3 sized Atlantis Fan Art digital painting I did signed by Rachell, (cos it's Teyla that's in the pic)... And I dunno, might just go with the pics they have for Torri and Don. I wouldn't have anything "unusual" par say...
-
I will be hopefully... they'll be like, down on my agenda cos I'm gonna meet the others before them, but if I'm standin around doin nothing then yep, definitely gonna wander on over. Cos let's face it, we're all gonan be drooling.
-
Your looking too deep mate, the fact remains they are..........FIT!
Sorry to be so shallow but the fact they havnt appeared in a film or been in a comic doesnt bother me at all
Exactly. I'm the same. They're there to look good and that's what they'll do, and will do well!

I'll second the Firefly and Scrubs cast, absolutely!
For Scrubs, Zach Braff or Sarah Chalke, would be absolutely superb! but any other cast member from Scrubs would be great in my honest opinion.
Of course almost anyone from Stargate (SG1 and Atlantis)
movie wishlist:
Christian Baile
Jessica Biel (cos a guy can indeed dream.
)
Hit a snag, can't think of too many others... I'd have to see a list of possibles and choose from that.
Joe Kucan is another man I'd love to meet! He's not in any movies that I know of but he's in a game. Joe Kucan plays "Kane" in the Command and Conquer series... In Command and Conquer 3 he's actually acting alongside Battle Star Galactica's Tricia Helfer. Grace Park and Michael Ironside are also in it.
