1Cool Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Show off your Comic Con photos with celebrities! I love seeing the wall pictures and the cos-play pictures but has anyone ponied up the cash to get a picture with a celebrity? I've seen quite a few pics with Stan Lee and it appears he sits while you stand kind of close to him while the picture is being taken. My nephew got a picture with Matt Smith of Doctor Who fame and Matt put his arm around him during the picture. Any other celeb pictures with board members that people want to show off? I'm considering getting a picture with Billie Piper or Ron Perlman and really want to see what you typically get for the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2017 Ok, I'll monopolize the thread for a while with my . 25 or so years of attending every nearby (and some not so near) sci-fi, horror, comic, and general nerd convention, has left me with a lot of this stuff. This is all I could find on my phone. I know I have tons more at home, I'll have to do some digging. It may be fun for you, and depressing for me, to chart my weight gain and beard-greying through the years! I don't normally go for the posed "photo op" pics because they cost a fortune, and you're only there for, literally, 10 seconds, as they herd you through like cattle, snap your pic, and move you along your way. It's very impersonal and expensive. I tend to enjoy getting a selfie or something at the booth of the celeb, as it's more of a personal interaction, and generally much cheaper as well, if not free. That being said, these first three were ops I couldn't pass up. First up, our Princess, Carrie Fisher. As I walked up, she saw my shirt and exclaimed "Tom Waits! I love him!" For as much of an impression as one can get in a 10 second interaction, she seemed genuinely caring and fun and everything you could hope for. I look really stoned. porcupine48, Larryw7, nepatkm and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Cinematic Titanic show at DragonCon a few years ago allowed me to finally catch up with my MST3k faves. I think at this point I've met the entire cast except for Mike Nelson. Had a nice long chat with Joel about the Clash. They couldn't have been nicer. Super stoked that MST3k is back!

F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Right before it was my turn to talk to Malcolm McDowell, a hot chick wearing only body paint (and panties of some sort) wandered by. He jumped up from his table to run out and talk to her. After he flirted a bit, he came back to the table, to find me standing there. "I can't compete with that," I said. "No. You can't," he replied. porcupine48 and oakman29 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 The Missus doesn't usually care about this , but she found Doug Jones very charming. If you haven't met Doug before, he is a delightfully odd guy. Very touchy feely. Kept rubbing my bald head. Super, super nice guy. fullerjason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Went to a horror show last fall that had a lot of Friday the 13th "final girls". Here they are, plus composer Henry Manfredini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F For Fake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 There's a lot more where these came from. If I haven't worn out my welcome (and you're not sick of looking at my ugly mug) I'll throw some more up later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
