NYCC Saturday Good, Bad, and Ugly Final Day

Post by lanza218 »

Last Day, home stretch, here we go folks:

GOOD: So Midday on Friday, the guardrails were reduced from 3 to 1 and I had already made up my mind that getting people at NYCC was going to be a waste. Met up with Greg there though and banged out a few Outlander names, pure pokemon for me.

Caitriona Balfe

Sophie Skelton

Headed over to the next spot and our want going in said on way out, walk to a second spot, miss THOSE wants, and day is starting to become longer than we anticipated. So we sat and ate breakfast in the dirtiest deli ive ever been in.

Finally we go back to spot 2, and out comes Sophie Turner, a top 10 want of mine and she could not have been any nicer.

Spot 3, waited a long time but it paid in dividends. The Happy cast exited, and got ops with everyone. Love the show, and Meloni is another top 10 want for me. Did pass on the little girl from the series though

Walking up the street is Emma Dumont from The Gifted, a show I am enjoying, so of course gabbed a quickie

Next out was Benedict Wong who was super rushed and handlers were pulling him in every direction, napped a pic while talking with him, nice guy

Unique photo of the year!!!

Wendy Schaal out next and could NOT have been nicer

Killed some time before the night meets, and found Rachael MacFarlane who was with her daughter bur extremely nice, but Dee Baker ignored the 3 of us……

Went to see Jim Carrey which was a mess, did some errands and arrived at a spot where I got another top 10 actor from Wire and Game of Thrones Page semi-protected
Aidan Gillen, def was ready to party

Onto the Main Event, a man who barely comes to now and really sint the nicest. Chrsitopher Guest, huge name for me, just the 3 of us, me class greg, Guest comes out with his wife Jaime Lee who dos nothing, and neither does he! Initially, while walking to the car he says make it quick, as I am taking the picture, this FN fake pap Darla, who was snapping pics the entire time flashed me, so nominee for worst photo of the year but this is as good as it gets

he denies class and greg BUT he gets in the wrong car, comes out as greg is asking for help with his camera. Greg gets a quick pic but alas class gets denied and really for no good reason. Loudian Wainwright also denied class, went back to a spot where we were probably going to see Andy Serkis but I was exhausted, also skipped day 4 and had some paid wants and some free ones I would have liked but I was spent after 4 straight days of doing stuff and still had one more day left in me……..

BAD: People were actually taking each other photos in a rushed situation, did NOT have their phones ready, and gave countdowns before taking the photo, I was livid, more pain in the leg, since I got my blood clot 5 years ago sitting/standing for long periods just takes a lot out of me

Everyone needs a charge

It was Chilly and WINDY

UGLY: Jerry had no idea if these people were guests or celebs and he mistakinely chose celeb, and it was creepy

Some good shots here and a really great combined report! Just FYI, you do have the Outlander females listed backwards. The first one is Sophie and the 2nd one is Caitriona

Another name I don't have to hear him whine about, done, Meloni! The Jim Carrey was funny. Dealers everywhere. Where are Lanza and Asian Dave? Practically standing in Central Park.
