It could be a Walking Dead person.
It could be a Star Wars person.
It could be an Indiana Jones person.
It could be a Terrahawks person.
It could be a Batman person.
It could be a Dr Who person.
It could be a Game of Thrones person.
It could be a Fandom that I'm not at all familiar with person.
Then again it could be the man who shot Liberty Valance.
It could be Holly Valance.
It could be the Ivy.
It could be someone from Major League Baseball.
It could be Tommy Cannon.
It could be Will Smith.
It could be Corey Feldman
Maybe possibly someone who is known by three initials, or four, or five, or two, or one....
Take your pick :)
Um but I thought they said 'A' List? I don't know half the people here and whats a Terrahawk?! Unless this is a joke and Im not catching it (Im tired from all the guessing lol)
Ok, perhaps Cannon and Ball aren't a list - partly it was me having some fun as is the case so many people want HUGE names from so many different fandoms yadda yadda yadda, that I was taking their ones into consideration.
Terrahawks was a show on telly back in the eighties made by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson (Thunderbirds)
Course, in my day this was all the rage :)

As these 'big guest announcment warnings' are quite common now i think it would be cool if showmasters gave free diamond pass to first person on forum to call the correct guest. Just an idea.
My thoughts...
It could be someone who is a super-massive guest such as George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Samuel L Jackson, Joss Whedon. I think this is unlikely as Showmasters expectations of a massive guests always see a bit lower than ours. Although Jett Lucas did a show a while ago - ?was this a recon mission for Dad?
Or it could be someone who has previous been anti-cons or anti-autographs. This might mean Liam Neeson, Ewan Mcgregor, David Duchovny.
Or it could be someone who is an older star. Showmasters saying 'this could be your only chance to meet them' might mean they are getting-on a bit and might not be around much longer. This might mean Roger Moore, Ian McKellan, Michael Caine.
No way would it ever be Mr. Spielberg or George Lucas, they are far too big.
With what Jason has said, I'm guessing its someone who has to limit their time for various health reasons this would make sense seeing they don't do private signings and as a result are rather rare.
IF its who I think it is, they would be nice to meet, and would look good on an item I have which has three sigs already on it and was in a movie I saw years ago at the cinema. Someone very special to me has met them - of course it may be someone else and not who I'm thinking of but reading between the lines it would be understandable that his activities would be very limited and I'm guessing that many would understand why.
This is me merely speculating.

Michel Caine
He's done a number of signings. Most noteably, back in 2010 he did a number of booksignings.
Not a lot of people know that

yes its all very exciting and everyone will be playing the guessing game to Thursday evening.
i still feel it will be a director (thou i rather an actor if its a crazy price) probably
George Lucas
thou Steven Spielberg ,James Cameroon and Peter Jackson are a-lister directors most people know
I very much doubt that the caliber of Director like Mr. Spielberg and George Lucas or indeed Peter Jackson or James Cameron will do an event like this.
Would be nice though, but definitely wouldn't happen :)

Ray worked with Muppet Master Jim Henson from way back and was very much a long time collaborator and his music helped (in part) to make the Muppet Show what it was.
He was 96 but what a legacy he has left behind as did Jim Henson.

Jason. Is it Harrison Ford?
As Jason has already said:
"this guest has never done a signing ever that i know of and i have asked"
As many will already know, Harrison Ford has done signings before. :)
-
Well the announcement mentions something about it being the only signing in this country this year which makes me think it will be someone doing a signing in another country later this year. Again Harrison Ford
this guest has never done a signing ever that i know of and i have asked , also this guest has no other plans to do a public signing this it there only planed signing i hope that it clear as we do not want any misunderstanding as when the passes go on sale we thing they will sell out very fast and we do not want people thinking that they will get another chance as that is not going to happen .
i just wanted to clear that up fro everyone.
take care
jason
Well this totes rules out Harrison Ford :)

Jeremy Clarkson?
If that was a serious suggestion I despair for the human race.
Don't worry, it really wasn't!
To be honest he needs all the work he can get after the whole "Fracas" incident, even now I cannot believe that so many signed a petition that technically condoned verbal and physical abuse. Its a sad state of affairs when people support this intolerable behaviour.

Does he do cons?Ewan McGregor, Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, Kevin Costner, Anthony Hopkins.
Kurt Russell would be someone around the £25 ish mark so I doubt it'd be him as a diamond guest.
I don't know but its a figure I'd guess he'd be. Best thing in my opinion that he did was Used Cars. Very funny movie
-
Just to keep it in the BTTF theme how about Crispin Glover?
I haven't a clue if he's done a Convention before
As likely as Thomas Wilson....
-
Ewan McGregor, Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, Kevin Costner, Anthony Hopkins.
Kurt Russell would be someone around the £25 ish mark so I doubt it'd be him as a diamond guest.
25 quid??? No chance!
Kurt is a legend!!!
He certainly wouldn't be more than say £50, but would be someone who would be realistic at an event like this.

Ewan McGregor, Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, Kevin Costner, Anthony Hopkins.
Kurt Russell would be someone around the £25 ish mark so I doubt it'd be him as a diamond guest.

harrison ford, sigourney weaver, johnny depp, liam neeson, chris evans , robert downey jr, ben affleck, christian bale, leonardo dicaprio, will smith, bruce willis theres so many it could be im in two minds i want a really big guest but my wallet is gonna be crying if it is ahaha
Harrison Ford = Too Big.
Sigourney Weaver = Possibly
Johnny Depp = Very friendly
Liam Neeson = See my previous post
Bruce Willis = Not fan Friendly
-
yeah ur definitely right I love meeting the stars and every autograph I get is signed for me and the amount of abuse some people give them who ain't true fans makes it bad for everyone else
really what happenedLiam Neeson would be pretty amazing!! Maybe they're bringing Qui-Gon
It depends if he's gotten over how he was treated by the Autograph dealers who publicly debased him in 2012 or not.
It was the day of the Wrath of the Titans prem, a load of the dealers were outside the station waiting for him, he said he'd sign after coming out and from what I can gather meant it - then they flung a whole load of verbal abuse at him, and clearly made him unhappy hence why he didn't sign ANYTHING for TRUE Fans at the Titans premiere the same day.
This is precisely the reason why I cannot stand dealers, I've said it before I'll say it again, they ruin this for everyone. They don't care whether the person is male or female they will use words that I cannot and (as a Gentleman) shall not use on here.
Problem is, its when dealers do stuff like this that upsets the Star that sees them not wanting to meet the TRUE Fans at the premieres, this was one of the fears that went round the morning of the Morning Glory prem, just imagine the uproar that would have occurred if Harrison Ford had been mistreated like that? And he turns up to the prem and doesn't sign a thing.
Totally agree. I can't stand all the dealers when I'm up at prems or theatres etc. I think the only way to stop them would be if all celebs just said "one per person and personalised only". Most real fans would be happy with that and eventually dealers would get the hint.
The dealers just ruin it, its one of the reasons I don't do Prems any more (to be fair the main reason is because I've met everyone I've wanted to meet) the problem with your very good idea about "One per person and personalised only" is that the dealers wouldn't take too kindly to that at all, they sure know how to use their mouths etc etc. #Scavengers -

And he turns up to the prem and doesn't sign a thing.
I do my best to make it a priority to get the Star to personalise, last year I met Michael Palin and asked him to personalise, a few weeks later I was fortunate enough to meet both Clean Bandit and Jess Glynne, their album was personalised and that makes it so much more valuable to me :)

Morgan Freeman
Johnny Depp
Tom Hanks
Robert Downey Jr
LEONARDO DICAPRIO
Angelina Jolie
Tom Cruise
Meryl Streep

Tom Hanks = Too big (no pun intended)
Angelina = Not a chance
Meryl Streep = Not Fan Friendly.
Mr. Spielberg = would be easier to stop the World spinning on its axis

As ever, just announce it. A week of random guessing on here is pointless and a waste of everyone's time. I'll be back to see who it is, until then have fun with all the unrealistic expectations.
Unrealistic expectations in my opinion would be people like:
Mr. Spielberg
Harrison Ford
Arnie
Sylvester Stallone
Sigourney Weaver
Jack Nicholson
Clint Eastwood
Sean Connery
Bruce Willis
Samuel L. Jackson
Johnny Depp.
Tom Cruise.
Forgot to add Tom Hanks.
Realistic? Everyone but the above.
-
Yeah, if you want people like Ford, Stallone and Arnie, you are going to have to pay for it. If it's worth it is only a decision you can make. For some it will be, for others not....
We can't ask SM why they don't get this level of guest and then complain when they say it will be expensive.
Which is why I get ever so irritated when in the past you get people bleating on about having HUGE and such unrealistic guests, "WAAAAA! I WANT HARRISON FORD (don't we all ) WWWWAAAAAA I WANT ARNIE! WAAAAAAAA I WANT I WANT I WANT!" but yet these same people moan when another guest is £10 more than they'd be willing to pay.
Those like Harrison, Harrison and Harrison wont EVER be in the £20 - £55 price range in fact, to be fair to the man you could stick another couple of noughts on those figures, the guy IS Harrison Ford, to expect to pay £100 for an Autograph would be the same as asking him a myriad of Star Wars questions and expecting him to be really happy and eager to answer #Nothappening.
On the other hand, Harrison being in the three figure price range is what most/those in the know/savvy enough would be prepared to pay hence why I'm going to be donating most of my non vital organs to Branston

how about
Keanu Reeves
Hugo Weaving
Will Smith
Jaime Foxx
Chris Evans
Michael Keaton
Ian McKellen
Bruce Willis Maybe
Christopher Walken
Tim Dalton
Jack Nickalson he said in the past that he has been trying to get him in the past and that he always wanted to see him at a showmasters event
Don't get your hopes up over Bruce, as there's a reason he wasn't in Expendables 3 as Sly Stallone made his feelings known.
-
I have a few theories as to who this could possibly be, but then again these guessing games always evoke the same kind of guesses.
-
OOOOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes! It'll be awesome to meet George Dent again, I frigging love that guy! We had a nice chat about Drop The Dead Donkey at Collectormania back in 2012 :)
Brilliant guest :)
warning everyone Very BIG guest announcement on Thursday the 16th
in London Film and Comic Con 2015
Posted
Unfortunately many will completely not read or indeed take on board your post and continuously ask for the Rock, the Rock, the Rock, the Rock. Then be completely surprised and crestfallen when in fact on Thursday it won't be the Rock for the reasons you've just stated.
