elenmai Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) He's just posted on his Twitter Wonder if we'll get somebody else instead? If so, who? Edited January 15, 2010 by slaycandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InYourHonour Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm absolutely GUTTED, i was really looking forward to meeting him. It's really short notice to get a replacement, so i'm not sure if they will. I hope they do, but obviously at this stage it's a lot to ask, so i don't think anyone would begrudge them with this. Maybe they could rearrange him for Chevron 7.5, because i know i'd still like to meet him haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I hope it's okay that I edited the topic title. The one you had made it look like it was an official announcement that Showmasters/Massive Events already had confirmed. Â Will we get a replacement guest... possible. There have been cancellations on more short notice and there was a replacement brought in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyie Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 That's no problem for me, if Showmasters confim this news  But I can really understand the frustration of the fans of Brian. Happend to me at the HUB3 with no John and than no James. But Showmasters found a good replacement and I hope, they will also find somebody for the Chevron 7.4.

Hannanora-Potter Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Oh no! That's sad... I was really looking forward to meeting him. But never mind - still got 5 fantastic guests! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crippsy_99 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) Now im seriously annoyed. I was already regretting booking for this con as I was hoping for lots of SGU or at least new big guests, but knowing Brian was still going kept me ok for the moment. I have met all but one of the rest several times so have little interest in them. It was bad enough when that whole post about there would be no more SGU guests due to the haters was posted, and now to possibly hear that we've lost our only SGU guest DUE to this is even worse!  Apparently his coming was conditional in another/some other SGU peeps coming and it hasnt worked out that way, really unfortunate as Brian J was the one i was most interested in meeting  We can blame the SGU haters for that! Thanks SGU haters! Hope your happy!  The only way Im going to be happy now is if you get another main SGU guest as a replacement, preferably Robert Carlyle, Justin Louis or Elyse Levesque Edited January 12, 2010 by crippsy_99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_Ez Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Yeah, i'm not as enthused about it now Brian J has dropped out, if the tickets and hotel werent already non refundable i'd probably be rethinking the trip - i'm sure ill have fun once im there but, meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phenix00princess Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 That's a shame I was looking forward to meeting him. I hope they can re-arrange for him to come another time. Â I hope they find a nice replacement, whatever show they're from. If there's enough time to find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifi Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 David Blue came to the last con and he was the only SGU person there so I'm sure that wouldn't have been a problem for BJS. There is also quite a lot of fan interest in having Brian over here, so I don't think, as some above have suggested, that it is to do with any SGU 'haters' out there either. That's just a little bit OTT. BamBam after all crosses the boundaries of all 3 shows and, although he's not a star player in terms of being an acting name, I'm sure he'll have plenty to say about SGU too. I'm looking forward to the con very much and expecially to meeting DH who is, after all, a much bigger star in the Stargate world anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_Ez Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 David Blue came to the last con and he was the only SGU person there so I'm sure that wouldn't have been a problem for BJS.  He's tweeted that his attendance was contingent on other SGU guest/Guests being there, i guess David Blue's wasnt  Its a shame, im still hoping something is getting worked out *crosses fingers* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InYourHonour Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I hope they work something out too, but i'm not sure they will :S unless they have Robert Carlisle on speed dial (which would be brilliant, though highly unlikely) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selby Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 If that is true then that is stupid as SM would of known he would of pulled out if they didnt get another SGU guest. I hope this gets sorted or we get a good replacement as I am actually a fan of SGU more so than the other 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_Ez Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 [Well when i was speaking with him earlier (BJS not Rob C hah) i said that people were looking forward to seeing him and that it would make a lot of people happy if he were to reconsider, maybe ill nudge him again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose those people on here who aren't too keen on SGU won't be aided by this :S, and they won't be too happy with him if he does reconsider. All the same, i stil lwant him to show up, and so do quite a few people judging by this post, so i really hope he does reconsider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Massive Events Posted January 12, 2010 Showmasters Admin Share Posted January 12, 2010 Hi everyone, Â Sorry, I have been out for the afternoon at a meeting so this is the first that I have seen of this! Â It is also the first that I have heard of this! Â Obviously it is early in the morning in The U.S. but I am about to write an e-mail to Brian J Smith's agent to find out what is going on as they have certainly not told me that Brain has cancelled and neither has Brian. Â When I hear back I will let you know but at the moment it seems like you guys know more than I do! Â Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandcat Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 thanks for the update mark hope you get an answer back soon would be a shame to lose the only SGU representative at the con Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carly Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm just wondering if this is some kind of hack of Brian's Twitter account (it has happened before to other folks) just to make him look kind of spoiled or something. If the organizers haven't even heard anything about it, possibly it's just someone evil playing around with him and us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
