gebes Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 err, Michael J Fox has Parkinson's disease, I VERY much doubt you'll see him at one of these types of event. Look up the Michael J Fox Foundation on the web. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzy Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 No offence at all intended to him, but it might not be the best of autographs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sehrah Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Ok I agree too that Michael J Fox might not be able to write autographs. But it would be great to have a photo taken with him!!!! He could hand out pre-signed autograph pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 But it would be great to have a photo taken with him!!!! He could hand out pre-signed autograph pics! Somehow I dont think he'd enjoy that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzy Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 its still the same... I don't know how serious it is now... but even a little shake and it'll be seriously hard for him to get through 1 or thousands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompey87 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 It would be brilliant but I would hate for him to have a hard time with it. I doubt it would be the easiest of weekends, especially considering how popular he'd be. I think it would just be WAY too much, I'd be too worried for him.

Toxie Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 It would be wonderful but he'd only be able to sign for short lengths of time due to his illness so it really wouldn't be practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosfer2 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 he'd only be able to sign for short lengths of time due to his illness If at all. One I just don't see happening, I'm afraid. (Though I'd love to meet him.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastian haff Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 In a perfect world, yes, Michael would be a fantastic guest to attend any of the Shows, but alas, Parkinsons seems to be getting the better of him! What a rediculous idea !!!!??!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Powers Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 It would be wonderful if Mike were to come to a con....don't know how much the PD has affected him, but if he is unable to write properly, I would be more than happy just shaking the guy's hand and having a photo wih him.

Joking aside due to the unfortunate condition Michael J Fox is in this is a none starter! If he was to ever (and thats a almight IF) he was to do an event I could only see it being an Autographica event. It's more controlled, relaxed and it's easier to limit the numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosfer2 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 And stop people from trying to shake hands with someone who has a condition causing him to shake uncontrolably...

sideshow Bob Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Sadly youve got no chance Parkinson's Disease is a horrible condition, have you looked on the likes of you tube for videos of Michael J Fox? theres a few of him talking about his condition and its sad to see someone you love from films in your childhood looking so ill and a virtual prisoner in his body. It might sound selfish but I wouldnt want to meet MJF this way, the chances of him signing autographs is slim due to his parkinson 'shake' , the chances of a talk for any length are slim as it has effected his speech as well as the condition causing fatigue, and saying you would just like to shake his hand (no pun intended) turns it into some kind of victorian freak show Muhammad Ali is a sporting hero of mine but would I want to meet him? again no, I want to remember him as the greatest. Looking at him now almost brings me to tears, not because I feel sorry for him, but because a man who did so much, who influences so many, ended up in this condition, not through an accident or injury but because he was one of the unlucky few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeDonovan Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 It might sound selfish but I wouldnt want to meet MJF this way I agree entirely. I'd rather remember him as he was in 1985. I was a huge fan of Family Ties, and of course it goes without saying that BTTF was one of the most important movies for my generation. The Secret Of My Success was another favourite of mine. Under normal circumstances I'd love to meet him - but not like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacklover Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I've just recently read somewhere .... don't remember where .... that he isn't doing fine at all. But there's also talk about him getting a guest role on the show "Rescue me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
