XLcatloveress Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 For me, it's definitely meeting actors, from movies or TV shows, I don't care *chuckles* Just people whom I've enjoyed watching and whom I don't ever get a chance to just meet in the street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators DavidB Posted June 28, 2010 Moderators Share Posted June 28, 2010 I tend to meet movie and TV stars, though I would guess the majority are television based as it's far easier to get 'collections' going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danvader123@hotmail.co.uk Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I guess it would be just stalls and meeting movie actors and actresses I like, not really into TV shows unless the actor or actress has been in one of my favourite films I may consider of meeting them.

Vitani Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 For me it is to meet tv actors, and also to look at the stalls. I wouldn't, however, go to just look at the stalls if there were not any actors I wanted to meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraHawk Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 My main reason would be the Empire guests, but I dunno, I'm sort of on Autopilot so far. I'm attending because I've done the last two or three and I never considered not attending this time round! But there's no major Wow factor for me. Yet.

BeatrixKiddo88 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Films stars followed by TV stars. Out of all the events this one seems to be the one that gets the bigger actors usually, so its the main reason I go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timelord81r Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 you missed out to get photoshoots ;-) for me its about the tv and movie stars, have no interest in comics, aminie or however u spell it lol, cos play (although some are impressive) or book authors, of course there are exeptions to every rule like stan lee or bernard cornwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink lady Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The atmosphere! No matter who the guests are, everyone there wants to enjoy themselves and they're all usually really friendly which makes for a great atmosphere. The crew do an amazing job as well which always helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelenPetts Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 To meet some of my favourite TV stars and authors but also Im really just looking forward to seeing what it's all about. Im not into CosPlay either but i cant wait to see what people will be wearing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonsanddaffodils Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) For the atmosphere, and to get a chance to crew alongside fab peeps but I would be lying if I didnt say I was looking forward to meeting Ben Browder, William Shatner,...............well, there are so many good guests..............but being a Stargate fan................... Only my second LFCC, and didnt crew the last one, so REALLY looking forward to this one Edited June 28, 2010 by Rhianydd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collector-man Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 To meet actors/actresses from film Havent logged on here for a long time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlippDigby Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Don't entirely agree with the dichotomy between the FILM and TV stars. We usually come to meet a fair mix of both really, so two choices is for us a bit redundant. Still, looks like a fantastic event! From Terrahawk "....no WOW factor." I felt that about last years and was pretty vocal about it too (side thought....flippin' heck is it really a year ago? Where the hell did that go?) but then we got there and the atmos just took over and so it was a fantastic convention. We are really pleased we went.

XLcatloveress Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Since I'm traveling from Germany, have to budget flight/hotel/expenses at the con itself on a budget that's 1-person-earned, 4-people-supporting usually and have to get my husband's 'approval' (since he's the earner and also, will have to watch the kids for the weekend), I can't travel 'just' for the atmosphere or 'just' for meeting other fans - if there wasn't a WOW-factor (for me, that's William Shatner - he was announced, the announcement mirrored on livejournal and I had my first European con I absolutely had to go to! Begging with puppy eyes and all ), I couldn't justify traveling to London for a weekend. As such, it's only just meeting someone special that 'lures me' there, and the atmo/people/fun I'll be having will just be added bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloodspatteredlox Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 sure sure we get to meet famous people and what's not fun about that?!! but for me it's to catch up with people I met at Collectormania London last year, or to finally meet one or two of them even though they have a photo of my arm and my cyberlox (i was unaware of them). only got chatting to a few of them, because one was on the train home with the friend i actually went with. and ifthis makes sense then good if not *slopes away* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybernator_uk Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Star Trek first and foremost. Sometimes though I will look at some of my other fave films/shows. Here we have Terminator 3, Big Trouble in Little China, and thanks to Timelord, BSG, LOL. I like meeting the people, but also the day out with my friends and making new friends also.

Rachel_Lena Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 went to my first con for the actors, went to my first LFCC for both actors and friends and this year i'm mostly going for friends and stalls as there is not really any actors i really want to see, though i'm excited matthew lewis has been announced, have seen him before but he is lovely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
