#10 nice prom pic. 😊 How lovely she gave you the big hug.

She was lovely. I got a photo with her and Iain Glen last year as well!

u/luckystrike_bh 1d ago

Do you think she remembered you from last year? I know that would be a lot to ask of any person.

6

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

I doubt it. She sold out both times, so probably wouldn’t remember most faces.

This is awesome! …but how much did you spend? 👀

u/Shadw_Wulf 14h ago

This is probably around $2k

Getting the Dr from Back to the Future is amazing!!

He had to cancel last year, but came as planned this year!

Billy Zane does cons???

How much did this cost

u/luckystrike_bh 1d ago

A lot of them are 200 to 300 dollars each for a photo and signature. It depends on the artist. It's free cash that they don't have to report to the IRS.

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

A lot

u/thainfamouzjay 1d ago

Why

4

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

Because I had photos with guests like Emilia Clarke and Jude Law

u/Ta-veren- 1d ago

u/Nealm568890 1d ago

Whoa, you must be a millionaire or something. Those pics were not cheap.

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

Nah I’m not that rich. Otherwise I’d have even more 😂

But yeah they were expensive, and I intend to start saving again after returning from Comic Con Scotland next week!

u/Big_River_ 2d ago

dude you could have saved a great deal of money with AI if you are not aware now you know - this is awful cringe simp way to expend capital just saying

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

Ignoring the fact that that would make me an art stealing planet burning loser, it wouldn’t be a genuine encounter.

u/NoLibrarian5149 1d ago

This.

It’s your money, it’s going to people you like who you actually briefly met/interacted with in the real world, and I don’t care how you spend your money as long as no one is hurt unwillingly!

u/Big_River_ 1d ago

not nearly as pathetic as simping for fame - tell me how true are the connections you made with these famous persons you paid to take a picture with???? - why are you defending a system designing to vamp your fandom?

2

u/FilmBuffGrabiec 1d ago

Why don’t you get a grip?

1

u/kfbr392_x 22h ago

I don't get it either. What's the point? 5 seconds to say hi and your a fan. Then picture. What would one even do with these photos?

3

u/thevelvetdays7 1d ago

Why would anyone use AI to do this? That is the most pathetic suggestion I have read in a good long while and is SEVERELY unethical to steal artist likenesses and have them appear in photos they were never in. You are stealing their face withoit consent and taking money from their pocket and many of these actors are not rich as you would assume. An absolutely reprehensible, ghoulish, disgustingly entitled suggestion. Shame on you. DO NOT DO THIS.
