The crew can pretty much go at lightning speed at the shoots if they have to. Photoshoots generally go way faster than autographs. I don't think photoshoot batches ever went that high. But yeah, it will be a pretty long shoot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D4vem88 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Wow, those preorders went pretty swiftly! and batch 24 for photos! Ben is going to be a busy boy isn't he?! I imagine chances of an auto without a diamond pass or gold will be pretty small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Have to say I'm getting a bit concerned that the amount of photo shoots being sold is going to severely limit other activities and mean the shoots are so fast you don't have time to even breath let alone ask for a pose.

wjbleming Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Yeah, I've had the same thought, it's bound to be wear down both the crew and Benedict to have a good 2400 photos taken, plus the Diamonds (if each batch has 100), but as QS has said, the team can be very quick with the photos. There's always the (small) chance there'll be 3 shoots in the day, even if it limits his signing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4vem88 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Isn't there 50 photos in a batch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 1 batch - 10 mins (and that's probably rushing it) so 28 batches = 4 hours 40 minutes in photoshoots. 1 hour for the talk 1 hour for lunch and breaks 2 hours 20 for signing. Blimey. I know they know what they are doing but it's looking pretty tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh ok, I was always under the impression there was 50 in a batch. In that case that's a lot more than I originally thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I had always thought it was 50 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they can't say anything but SM might even cap the amount of Diamond Passes sold to free up some time.

Queen_Sindel Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Diamond Passes are always limited, so that's totally okay to say. I can't remember the exact batch amount, but it was not much of a difference at Sherlocked. No issues there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 With just general admission and a regular photo shoot booked, I think it's safe to say I won't be getting a Dr.Strange poster signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blink83 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Initially brought just a photo shoot but caved in and upgraded to a diamond pass as know I'll regret it if I let the opportunity pass me by, yes it's a little more expensive than I'd like to pay but I think it will help massively on the day removing some stress. Plus his body of work is amazing. just hope no more big announcements as I'm skint lol. But I'm happy if this is all I can afford as it's all relative at the end of the day. just hope my Saturday is doable as have Diamonds for Steven Yeun, John Cleese, Conleth Hill and now Benedict plus a photo op with Derek Jacobi. Am reluctant to add anyone else to the list due to time constraints and fear of missing out on an auto or photo. Am beyond excited for meeting Sherlock/Dr Strange himself though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedierules89 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I'm gonna put this out there and say based on the info worked out earlier in this discussion. If you haven't bought a diamond pass you won't meet him there is no way with 16 batches of photo shoots that a vq ticket alone will get you an auto plus lunch talk etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
