Ok. Lets get the first thing first. Twitter was a buzz (well not entirely I am not That Justin kid) with what t-shirt I was going to wear. The beloved Tiny had a poll and people voted... about seventy something I think... maybe I am off but still a butt load of people voted and I made my very very Pro Bobby t-shirt. For those who missed the twitpic.
Yep. That's right. Bobby could kick the Ghostbusters and facers and the facer hates ASSS!!!! And Let me just tell you this it wasn't just only the fans who loved this t-shirt.
But lets get back to what happened. So my dear Friend who I did the marathon with came with me, we caught the train got lost in Melbourne Uni and waited. Waiting was really the theme of the day. As I wasn't a Platinum or a VIP (although my mum thinks I am Important) I wasn't first in line, I didn't have prime seats or spots so waiting was just something you had to do. But waiting wasn't that bad. I let my geek freak flag fly by jumping into peoples conversations when they couldn't remember characters or episodes names.
"Ahh sorry for butting in but that was Season 5 episode 2 and the horse man was War they weren't infected by demons but..." Yeah if only they had an SPN trivia contest I so would have kicked some peoples butts. Anyway moving back on to topic.
Because I am poor... and lack of carrying the Crown Jewels around with me I only managed to get two Photos one with Misha and the man and myth himself Jim- Bobby, the same two people I got autographs from as well. Yeah I know shocker going for those two when we have the delightful Rob and Sam and Julie are there doing pretty much nothing just waiting for something to happen. Huh just like the people on the daily tickets. No I kid.
First up was Misha, and this is going to sound weird but holy crap he smells nice.
He was so friendly and nice and I guess friendly and nice are the same thing. But anyway... But not as crazy as you see in by reading his twitter. He was very polite and wow I better stop myself before I start repeating myself because he is just that awesome.
Then was the Photo I was pretty worried about. I didn't know how my t-shirt was going to go down.
Lets put it this way, he really enjoyed my t-shirt. Which was a relief. I dont know what I was expecting, maybe for him to hit me with his had and call me an idjet... wait that would have been cool.
Anyway once the photos were done it was Sam (Ellen) Q and A time. Boy she totally rocks, she almost made me cry about the whole 'Kick it in the ass' thing that she said in Abandon All Hope. She was scripted to say 'Dean dont miss' but after so many hours a camera man (I think)came over and sugested that she said kick it in the ass, which is something the great Kim Manners used to say before action. She said that when she first did it, the set went silent and that by the end everyone was in tears.
Knowing things like that add to the emotion of that scene.
Sniff...
On a much lighter note she told us about how she didnt know the gun edicit and how she loved how she got a shotgun and that J2 picked on her entusiasim with it. There was also a little food for thought. She told us about her email with the Evil master Eric, and how he responded with 'Dont be too upset in our show death doesnt mean anything'. From what I could gather by from what Sam said, if she was to come back she would like it to be like how John came back in... well All Hell Breaks Loose.
Then it was Robs and Julie's Q&A. In all reality I cant remember all that much from this session. However there were some highlights. When they showed Anna dying Rob went "Ha Ha I cant die" and he said he would like to be in a Ghostfacers ep... which lets just say would be awesome. Julie seemed nice and Rob was just like Chuck in real life. He was so freaking sweet.
Then there was Misha... to me it was a little strange that Misha went on before Jim but Jim had been there since season 1 so I guess thats why... Anyway Misha was totally the class clown. He swore and acted up, brought up the girl in Sydney that stole his napkin and how that was the most disgusting thing he had ever witnessed. He had the whole room in histerics - talking into his water bottel and drinking out of his microphone and taking a phonecall from the 'Shirt off your back' in Sydney. He really was just crazy and histerical. One of the main highlights of the day.
He said that he just had a phone call from Sera Gamble. Prospects of a Cas in season 6 are looking good.
However I did like his answer to how he would have liked season 5 to end... Sam Dean and Cas just going to the movies watching Up. That would have been histerical.
Really I dont know what else to say about Misha, he just seemed to understand and the stories and >how to play to a crowed.
Lastly was Jim. Mr Jim. The Beaver himself. He came walking out carrying an old school computer making some twitter joke. He wasn't as funny as Misha - really who is- but he was awesome. For God sake hes Bobby of cause he's awesome. One of the highlights from what he said was when someone asked him about the Amulet "The writers don't tell me what Bobby does off screen and I don't tell them." However from what I gathered from one of his answers the prospects of Bobby being in season 6 is hurriedly depleting. And I do not like it. I want Bobby to stay around forever... actually I have always thought the end of the show should end with Bobby standing with a bottle of beer either watching the boys drive off in the impala or with a beer watching the Boys body's burn in a hunters funeral.
But on less depressing note. Jim is just Jim. Superbly awesome and funny with just a hint of a little player. When asked about the Crowley kiss he said "As soon as I read that I knew I would never live it down. And come on he wouldn't. But at least he should have brought him dinner first. Just saying.
Then it was autograph time, as I am not overly rich I only got Misha and Jim's autograph.
Misha was awesome he as the bluest eyes I have ever seen. And he is just lovely.
Jim. Once again read my t-shirt and said how it was cool and how he liked reading it and then he hugged me and I stepped on his foot. And it was awesome.
Cons:
- The Prices, I know they have to pay a hell of a lot to get these people out here but 40 bucks per autograph is pretty heavy but what else do we work for.
- The fact people werent up to date on SPN come on if your playing Celb Heads and you have the Trickster and crack it when you ask if you are dead and you dont like the answer. Oh well.
- The character/actor intros. For the most part they didnt have anything to do with the character for Robs one it had mostly the Boys. Like come on have some of Chucks one liners hes pretty damn awesome.
Pros:
- Everything else. Supernatural fans are the best.
- People taking photos with me because of my t-shirt.
So all in all it was an amazing and long day and I am saving up for the LACon. Bring it on baby.
