Khalessi Kate Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Outlander looks amazing I'm a massive fan of the books and if you're following any of SDCC the stuff coming out from there looks amazing, be great to get guests over from that!!! I have been loving all the pictures, interviews coming out of SDCC and yes, it would be fantastic to get them to attend LFCC.

stevie_g Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 How about some soundtrack composers? A few examples: Vince DiCola http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_DiCola http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0225746/ John Williams http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002354/ Don Davis http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Davis_(composer) And Mark Ayres http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Ayres interesting, we also wanted to post about composers..so the ones above here + Christoff Beck & Bear McCreary!!!!!!!!! In addition to my original suggestions I'll add David Arnold to the list. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Arnold Another suggestion a Muppets talk. I've been asking for a Muppets talk for years! Let's have it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_g Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 For future cons I'd like more panels about upcoming stuff like the Dredd talk a couple of years back. That felt special. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TantalizingTwilightFan Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Natalie Dormer! I was so gutted by her cancellation this year. if you think I'm over it, you're sorely mistaken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenie1965 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Wouldn't it be great if you could book a joint photo shoot and autograph slot for say 5 minutes with your favourite guest! That way you could get a chance to speak to them properly! I'd definitely be willing to pay the price for a ticket for that, especially with Lena Headey! I'm sure that others would too for their fave guest! I know it would probably reduce the number of people meeting the guests, but it would be brilliant! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I did a few times at Earls Court but then other times I was completely fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenie1965 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I probably would too but the guests would probably chat - wouldn't they? Lol :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knitty Fred Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Well you're booking five minutes of their time but doesn't mean they have to say anything because you're too rude to talk to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenie1965 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Oh er! Didn't mean that I wouldn't talk through rudeness - just nerves! That was all! Keep calm and carry on though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knitty Fred Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Sorry text isn't conveying what I meant as was meant to be a tongue in cheek jokey comment rather than the letter of the word as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenie1965 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 No worries - I see the point though! Maybe 5 mins is too long unless you really, really plan what you want to say! Lol :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lesleynile Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) It would be great but it's absolutly way too time consuming. Could you imagine a guest seeing only 12 people in an hour. It wouldnt be worthwile and not many tickets could be sold. not that I wouldnt want to sit for five minutes and talk to certain people. they do coffee lounges at other cons. You sit on a table of maybe ten people amd guest go round each table and spend five to ten minutes at each. That would make more sense but I dont think it would work for a con this big! Jensen ackles and jared padalecki I have spoken to before Wouldn't it be great if you could book a joint photo shoot and autograph slot for say 5 minutes with your favourite guest!

Panopticon 1993 they did an evening event which was over and above the normal day convention where they essentially had a buffet with various guests mingling. It was my first convention and I was awfully star-struck and I had a tendency to be quieter around people than I would be today but I did enjoy hearing some of the tales of "the old days". I wonder whether this is something whether SM could consider for future events in the way they did with Stan Lee? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapfairy Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I already listed what guests I'd like in the guest suggestions bit so for some other stuff: - YALC! - seating areas, especially for disabled/less able folks - lots more signposts and/or a detailed map showing restaurants etc (forgive me if there was one in the programme, I never found where to get one, lol.)

twinzz Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 We've got a question, actually! We've been visiting Cons for years in many different countries and we keep wondering "What is the connection between comic cons and wrestlers?" We don't nec. watch wrestling but we don't nec. get the connection either! Obviously it's great that they're there for the fans who get a chance to meet them but why wrestling and not most other sports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't nec. watch wrestling but we don't nec. get the connection either! Obviously it's great that they're there for the fans who get a chance to meet them but why wrestling and not most other sports? I'm not 100% sure and this is only a guess. The wrestlers that go to cons are ones from WWE, TNA etc. and that kind of wrestling has more entertainment in it. It can sometimes tell a great story. The people who wrestle can act like a heel (bad guy) or be baby face (good guy). Sometimes you get wrestlers who are just themselves but most have a gimmick they act out (Like The Undertaker for example) so it can be seen as acting. I personally love wrestling and have done since I was a little girl and at LFCC this year I got to meet Lita which was beyond awesome so I'm glad Showmasters get wrestlers for cons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4vem88 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Also, those shows are on TV, making it a TV show just as our shows of Arrow, Shield, Buffy, Walking Dead etc are TV shows and we have the actors from those. Same principle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
