gobo1979uk Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I was waiting for someone to say that. Good guest but bit too much of a buildup I think. Good guest. Not what I would call huge, but good all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fugaziuk Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 in the hope that maybe one day SM will bring Richard Briers along to an event he was at lfacc in 2006 - i got him to sign my henry 5 video - really great guy - just as friendly as you imagine him to be. in the hope that maybe one day SM will bring Richard Briers along to an event he was at lfacc in 2006 - i got him to sign my henry 5 video - really great guy - just as friendly as you imagine him to be.

Psychosis Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'll be honest and say I had a bit of a - very blonde - "who?" moment when Carolin text me the announcement last night. Quick google search for his image and recognised him instantly. He's one of those actors who I know and respect by appearance and take a while to get the name into my head. Awesome announcement!

mr_oo7 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This is without doubt, the most amazing guest that SM have ever got. I seriously believe that. I'm so shocked and thrilled about John going! John has appeared in some of the greatest films of all time, and has created some of the most memorable scenes in cinema history. better than Tony Curtis do you think ???????????? .

John has appeared in some of the greatest films of all time, and has created some of the most memorable scenes in cinema history. better than Tony Curtis do you think ???????????? . In my view yes he is. Tony Curtis is a more iconic figure in terms of being what you might call an old fashioned 'movie star' but in my opinion John Hurt has been in more things that I would regard as classics and is a better all round actor. That's just my opinion of course, but either way, we do have to say well done for Showmasters for getting two acting legends to appear at their events in the same year.

Five Fingers Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Oh my God! Someone told me today that John Hurt was doing this and I was like WOW!!!! He is such a hero. What a fantastic guest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gebes Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I think that if John Hurt does a talk at LFCC , that it will be very very entertaining indeed, the amount of subjects that could be covered is in my view quite literally endless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laura1234 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Well I'm not getting excited until the day due to all the cancellations there have been this year (not Showmasters fault I know) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdog Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Top guest! I'm very impressed with the quality of guests at the events this year - here's hoping it continues. Thanks SM, I'm looking forward to meeting Mr Hurt - a genuine British acting legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Where did you get that from? The shop says his photo session is on Saturday. That should mean he's there on Saturday for sure, but doesn't mean he won't do Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Man Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Amazing guest - probably the best Showmasters have ever got. Does anyone know if he has done cons before?? Only what is the chance of him cancelling before then?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted April 26, 2008 Moderators Share Posted April 26, 2008 I really don't think anyone can say what the chance is. No one can predict what work will come up etc, so I'm afraid it's waiting game for the organisers as much as it is for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavrosbel Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Holy dead rat on a stick. This is shaping up to be bigger than last year's LFCC and I almost died at that Please SM for the love of God, learn from the mistakes of last year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 All I know about Mr.Hurt is that he is very down to earth and accomodating and always signs for fans by the stage door when doing a play and he will sign anything unlike some people who only sign material to dow ith the production they are currently in.watched Alien a few hours ago and that chest buster scene has the same horrifying impact every time I see it!
