    With those prices, are they offering sexual favours as well?

    Better be having an eight hour sitdown with me, discussing their entire filmography for that price, too. There's a much closer convention I've missed several times in the past, but it's only $25 to attend and gives you full access to any celebrities in attendance to speak to/get autographs and pictures from all day. I'd much prefer to go to that one.

    Agreed, in the US, Wizard World is the biggest production company that runs conventions. There Comic Con series has gotten so expensive (use to be $35 entry with most celebrities prices in the 20-50 dollar range for auto+photo op in 2011ish era). With the Marvel films, Walking Dead, and other genres gaining so much popularity in the past 5 years, the prices have gone ridiculous. They can charge the prices because the super hero crowd are willing to pay and it allows them to get the bigger name guests.

    Creasy, not sure if you are referring to Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia convention in Baltimore, that one has had some good Bond guests in the past. Chiller Theatre in NJ and Monster Mania Con in NJ also have had Bond guests in the recent past. Chiller has gotten more expensive, but the other two are still very reasonable.

    @MooseWithFleas, thank you, that's the one! I knew I'd recognize the name if I read it but couldn't recall it for the life of me. There were two years in a row where several were in attendance but I missed it both times, sadly. I'll have to remember it and keep an eye out to see who arrives this year. Don't see any Bond actors listed just yet.

    Valerie Leon (Hotel Receptionist in TSWLM)
    Chiller Theatre in Parsippany, NJ - April 27-29

    Wasn't she also in NSNA ? The lady who fishes Bond after his run-in with remote controlled sharks ?

    You are correct @Gerard ! Valerie is technically a two time Bond actress.

    For Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention this year, Ricou Browning is currently signed on who directed the underwater sequences for both TB and NSNA.

    Out of curiosity I decided to check out the Wizard Con closest to me and got shocked to find out admission ranged $40-$50 for a single day's admission, plus a $3 surcharge on top of that.

    The guests include people from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Lord of the Rings, a guy from American Pie and sci-fi TV shows. The big guests are Jason Momoa and Ray Fisher of Justice League. More will be added, but it would have to be somebody really big to get me to go to it.

    I will likely stick to going to the National Sports Collectors Convention.

    I expect a back massage as we watch my favorite film of theirs in its entirety, with them dropping trivia nuggets throughout.

    I just can't stomach the idea of paying a millionaire hundreds of dollars for me to get an autograph. It's the state of things, but I'm a cheap ass so I can't get behind the idea. But $35-40 for an all-day convention or something akin to that? Absolutely.

    Completely agree! Considering it is the public who make these people wealthy? You would think they could give a little back in some way.

    I'm not sure if Stallone charging $400 for a picture is worse, or the fact that people actually pay that amount of money for one.

    Joanna Lumley is on tour this autumn with her one-woman show It's All About Me. Tomorrow (probably), I'll know if I'll be able to see her.

    Toby Stephens aka Gustav Graves from Die Another Day is appearing at Supanova in Melbourne April 5th - 7th
    And
    Supanova Gold Coast April 12th - 14th

    I’m hoping he also comes to Perth. I’m one of the few Bond fans who thought he was quite a good Bond villain. Certainly not the worst part of DAD. ;)

    A couple of weekends ago I attended Collectormania at the NEC. This was so I got to meet General Orlov himself Stephen Bercoff. Really nice guy and a great day out!
