vintageSW77 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 (edited) SEE its HORROR the majority of contributors want ! Edited August 10, 2008 by vintageSW77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teabelly83 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 SEE its HORROR the majority of contributors want ! indeed!! i think more horror guests are a must. we are usualy covered ok at collectormanias with tv shows, cult movies, sci fi etc, so why not add more horror guests?? can also add to the list tony todd and off the horror topic, i mentioned twin peaks guests, but also david lynch wud be awsome. unlikely but awsome.

michaelrc123 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 (edited) I would like to see people from cult shows like charmed and the like but also cast from CSI Las vegas (which i believe has never been done before) and the show Las Vegas (the one with james Caan) also i think the emphasis on horror guests has been a lil too intese over recent times, im all for horror but a more even selection would be better. Just my suggestion Edited August 11, 2008 by michaelrc123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my suggestion The emphasis on horror guests may be a lil bit intense but that's because no one ever really listens to much, and you have to go to conventions in the sates to meet anyone and that is expensive even though the autographs are half the price. I'm not saying or suggesting every guest should be a horror guest, and i'm all for a balanced even selection as you need to appeal to all types and tastes to make Collectormania Midlands a regular fixture for the future, but this is a forum for saying who you'd like to meet and ideas you have so being a big horror fan i'll be pushing horror but I don't and wouldn't expect Collectormainia to turn in to a horror convention. I think there should be a dedicated horror convention and it should be out of London so the rest of us mortals can attend, but that's a discussion for a different forum. Good luck with getting anyone form CSI, and how about getting William Shatner to attend as i would so love to meet him.

Just my suggestion See i think there hasnt been enough Horror movie stars and think there have been way too many Stargate,Buffy,Heroes and ST tv stars at past showmasters shows with empty lines,church bells a donging and the old tumbleweed blowing past after the big fan rush is out of the way. Englund and Campbell did the biz at Mid pretty much all day and thats a fact sure they are tv stars because of Xena,Brisco County and V but the majority of attendees had Freddy and Ash pics and memorabillia signed as far as i could see A lot on here are fans of the red stuff and i assume many are true long time fans of the genre judging by some of the unique requests for certain guests AND i second the idea for a seperate Horror bash.

nicky Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) I think there should be a dedicated horror convention and it should be out of London so the rest of us mortals can attend, I attend cons like LFCC in London no problem and I live in Ireland. If your a big enough fan and in Britian, you'll make the effort to travel. We have the capacity to use public mechanical transport - most humans have enjoyed this privelidge since the 1800s.

nicky Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Don Johnson How random is that??? About as random as Evil Dead guests like Josh Becker, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Barker or Chan Wook Park. Miami Vice was a big thing in the 80s and so was it's influence on pop culture. We've had TV shows from the 80s before, yes, even A-Teams Dirk Benedict. Edited August 14, 2008 by nicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to the Sates, and most recent Flashback in Chicago to Horror conventions just to meet celebs that I don't think I'll ever be likely to meet in this country so I do understand what travelling means. I just get a bit sick that London seems to always get the priority over the rest of the U.K. and not everything should be in the capital. Yes it's easy to get to, I can get there in just over an hour, but there's more to the U.K. than just London. Wouldn't you rather have a convention in Ireland with the same line ups as they do in London? Also the less people that have the shorter distance to travel is much better for the environment which we've been quite happily destroying since the 1800s.

Just my suggestion yeah isee what u mean, but if u look at these events, horror guests are normally least present, its always more likely to see star trek and dr who guests. more horror type ppl wud make a big difference.

I dont think some big guests will be tempted to go to Ireland, London is a big bustling city, the centre of attention so they are more likely to go there - it's where the action is. Just look at the calibre of guests Glasgow or Manc get compared to London. I dont mind the travel, I'm just glad we get the guests at all. SM get us the guests and the venue so then it's our job to get there if we wanna meet them - I think thats a fair deal, all SM ask is for us to get off our asses and get there, they've done the hard part. We cant get everything we want served on a silver platter. Edited August 15, 2008 by nicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now give up on this line of thought. I just feel it's fairer for the majority of the country to have things outside of London but you preprogrammed people seem to disagree. You just do as you're told. I'm allowed my opinion as much as you are to disagree with me but i don't see why it's such an issue. This is a forum about who you want to see and people even argue about that. Get back to topic and let people have there opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted August 23, 2008 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2008 I suppose the main point would be that the organisers aren't here to be 'fair'. They're here to make money. The London events are clearly successful, just like many other events in London from other organisers, so why not? If life was fair, everyone would have everything they wanted, easy to get, and as cheap as possible. But that's not realistic. Of course you're allowed an opinion, and I respect that. However I don't think calling people "preprogrammed" is a wise move. People can be happy with a situation and not criticise it without "doing what they're told". Just because someone doesn't stir things up, it doesn't mean they're a sheep or a follower etc. Some people really are just okay with certain things, understanding and accepting them. Anyway, like you said, it's about guest suggestions so probably wise everyone gets back to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
