Queen_Sindel Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Is there a specific one for LFACC or shall i just state that event as my preference on the post?? State the event as preference in the post. Once we have a new section usually a guest suggestions topic pops up there too, but no idea when the 2011 section will be created.

timelord81r Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 so the friday is a short preview thing? ive always said a friday evening open would be good especially for autos, but whats announced seems very short, what can be done in such a short space of time? all the guests saying hello on the stage and a quick look round the stalls? or just stalls? I say friday night should be photo shoot night ;-) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted July 20, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 20, 2010 I'm sure they'll find a good way to make use of the time. I highly doubt it'll be anything to do with autographs or photo shoots though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandler20uk Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Anyone know of any iconic anniversaries happening next year we can push for another special? We missed Goonies, that was this year, the star wars guys were amazing but imagine having the Goonies cast there too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs2 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) if it's like this year was? no thank you. why? cue broken record: comic guests. as before, I totally get that this is a film/tv con. you are completely geared up towards the whole meet, greet, photo op & autograph with film & tv stars, and while that isn't my cup of tea, it clearly is what the vast majority of people are there for. I didn't get there until just after 11, and I was done by 3. this is the first con I've ever been to that I've not spent the whole day there.

pez Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 The entire event this year felt very comic related most of the central area was comics I was board as a film tv lover. I enjoyed myself but comics only intrest me so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ops12 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I like the idea of three days, but spent 6 hours travelling on Fri and same on Sun, a LONG time queuing on Sat morning for tickets that ran out before I got to the front of the queue, even with working out a schedule before I came down, there were still talks that clashed, and I was frazzled by Sunday night. Why not charge £10 for all day ticket, (perhaps with the bigger start talks in the later morning) and charge £5 for afternoon only? That way you could perhaps start at 9.30 instead of starting at 10am, taking a little pressure off later in the day. I don't know what other people's preferences are, but I end up balancing photo shoots/signings, but also like to get to a few talks, and I have to admit that this year I felt I was rushing too much. I can see it's an incredible juggling act (well done, Too-Tall!). Did the inclusion of two 'heavyweight' stars (pun half intended) cause more than usual problems? I noticed that the queue and wait for photos was longer than last year, (more photos taken?) perhaps it would be worth hiring an on-site development facility, or using other providers as well as Boots? I hope this all helps, on to bigger and better next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
touchthesky Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Well. I checked flights, and we can get to lfcc but not back yet haha . I am going to be extremely organised this time! We spent like 8 hours travelling the day before LFCC last week when it could have been about 2.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 9th Doctor Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 (edited) Can we suggest guests? I was reading David Blue's (SGU's Eli Wallace) twitter feed and he said that celebrities don't get to go to cons unless the fans really want them. Suggestions for guests: Matt Smith John Simm David Blue Karen Gillan Sam Worthington Patrick Stewart David Hewlett Elisabeth Sladen (I met her at this years LFCC, but I still love her :) ) That's just a few off the top of my head.

summers_slayer Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Hey Can I just clarify the dates? It says on the forum and on the LF&CC page that it will be 15th - 17th July 2011, but on the Collectormania Events listing page it states 8th - 10th July 2011. I booked late last year and ended up in a horrible hotel with stupid expensive flights so I want to book as early as possible this time. Thanks alot Summers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
