Please share your stories of meeting Star Wars actors in this comment or down below! 🙏🏻😃

[@tomwood259]

How much was it to get a phot or an autograph??

[@john.michael01]

I met Ewan McGregor at celebration! He was genuinely so kind. When we saw him he said “Hey guys! How are you?!” And then he gave me a hug! So cool and such a memorable moment

[@FindingTheForce]

That is awesome!! You had such a similar experience... I am a fan for life! Thanks for sharing John.

[@jcbvortex22]

Super cool. People forget celebrities are people too. But to be in a position to positively touch peoples lives and to be genuinely caring and human, just makes the experience sooo much more real. Good positive energy to everyone out there.

[@rockrollangel1972]

I got a "hello there" when I met him, just about died on the spot

[@rhook88]

How much did that cost???😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@john.michael01]

@@rhook88 I believe $300 but I split it with a friend so $150. Definitely expensive but it was my only chance and I just couldn’t pass it up

[@marianabarbara7358]

I got to meet The Chosen One himself Hayden Christensen last year at Florida Supercon. He was super nice, very down to earth and humble. Fun story: He signed my sketchbook drawing of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader with the split of his personas. He signed the Vader half and I told him I was saving the other half for Matt Lanter and he smiled. He spoke highly of the Clone Wars and it cast members, and how excited he was to see his longtime friend Rosario Dawson's portrayal of Ahsoka, and I also blurted out that I had a crush on him since I was 9 and he laughed lol. I also tried I get him to tell me anything he could about Obi-Wan Kenobi at the time and he was super tight lipped lol. I hope to see him again soon. So yeah that's my favorite SW celeb encounter by far. MTFBWY.

[@slickrick2345]

Ashley is the sweetest celebrity ive ever met. She always had a long line do to her stopping and having conversations with everyone. She genuinely loves what she does and loves her fans and seeing videos like this where she did after hours is on brand. For fanexpo she would stay late and sign for every single person in line!

[@rockrollangel1972]

she does, so does Matt Latner, another very sweet person to meet!

[@slickrick2345]

@@rockrollangel1972 I met ashley again for the second time over the weekend at fanexpo and again, super sweet! She even remembered me and we had a pretty lengthy discussion on heruniverse fashion and ahsoka. I met Matt for the first time and yeah, dude is the nicest guy and I had to comment how their signings are so artistic and nice and he laughed and said, its because they actually care. He also asked what my favorite episode of clones wars is and we geeked out over the episode. They are legit the nicest people ive met and really show they care about all their fans and take time to actually talk with everyone

[@darthethan1995]

The only Star Wars actor I have an autograph from is Billy Dee Williams and here’s my story. When I saw him at a Comic-Con, I was so excited to meet him that I didn’t notice the line of people. When I did, I felt terrible and I apologized to him and all the people in the line. He said in his very chill voice “It’s all cool man, it’s all cool.” So I went and bought a Power of the Force 2 Lando figure and I waited in line. When it came to my time, I had him sign the figure and I had someone take a picture. Unfortunately I didn’t have a smartphone so the picture was blurry. Billy Dee Williams is a very nice and cool guy. I bought a Star Wars figure with a plastic clam shell so I can put the Lando figure in there and it’s now on the wall in my room.

[@FindingTheForce]

Hahaha… that’s awesome Ethan, it sounds like there were some cool people in line that didn’t mind if you got a little distracted. That’s a real bummer that the picture was blurry, hope you get another one someday. But really glad to hear that he seems like a great guy. Thank you so much for watching

[@lukycharms9970]

Those actors that are willing to actually talk for even just a couple seconds is cool. I’d rather wait in line for an actor that genuinely likes their fans than feeling like I’m in a conveyor belt just to take a photo with someone

[@williamstevens2667]

One of my favorites was the photo op my wife and I had with Matt Lanter. We brought 2 Xenopixel lightsabers and the Legacy Skywalker saber. We posed with them for the photo, but then afterward; since we were the last in line, he began to twirl it around and play with it. He said that it was awesome, and I had him sign the case it came in afterwards. Such a fun experience!!

[@FindingTheForce]

Whaaaat!?! That’s awesome William, thanks for sharing man. Sounds like a really special and unique experience. Matt seems like a really cool guy and all of the interviews.

[@SavannahCarnley]

Ashley and Matt Lanter are the sweetest people alive, I’ve met them twice now, such amazing people. ❤️

[@rockrollangel1972]

met Ashley 4 times and Matt 3 times and he is, so is James. Never once had a bad experience with anyone from Star Wars.

[@thatmightyskywalkermullet1141]

Kinda threw the girl who kindly said yes to filming you under the bus a little bit but okay haha

[@yungchum2073]

Ewan treasures this character - thats so awesome you met him (along with others) but Ewan is a goal for me to meet.

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey Yung. I wonder if he will be at the London Celebration next year? He was definitely worth the time and money!

[@Justin-id3km]

The only person I did a photo/autograph duo with was Bonnie Piesse, she even took the time to have a genuine conversation with me. She was such an amazing person. I also met and got autographs from Hayden Christensen, Amy Allen and Dee Bradley Baker. They were all such nice people. Dee kind of botched my autograph and felt so bad, his paint pen bled, so the signature is super thick on some areas haha. Other autographs I have but purchased and didn’t meet them are Ashley Eckstein, Temuera Morrison and Matt Lanter. I love getting to meet the actors and actresses that helped make the Star Wars galaxy come to life and I haven’t had a single bad experience with any of them, they genuinely love their fans.

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey J! 👋🏻 that’s awesome man! I wish so much that Hayden Christiansen would have been taking autographs and photos at the last celebration. I would’ve loved to have met him. Thank you for sharing your story, and may the force be with you!

[@CyrilSmithVA]

Ashley Eckstein, Temeura Morrison, Spencer Wilding, Daniel Logan and Dorian Kingi(Cad bane BobF Body Actor) were my favorite Star Wars celebrity meets. Ashley was such a sweetheart she said the Skyguy line and I met her husband who played for my Home team Cardinals. Temuera Morrison was great met him at Mad Monster Party Atlanta. He signed two of 3 of my figures for free. I showed him a video of my friend who voices Clones and the Fett on KZbin both Baker and Morrison impressions, he was so impressed he did a video call with my friend. Spencer Wilding was a awesome guy signed my Vader figure and told me what it's like to put the suit on. I met Dorian this past weekend, he was awesome. He signed my Cad Bane figure and when I mentioned a movie people didn't know he played in called Antlers, he gave me a free photo the Antlers creature. Awesome guy. Meeting Steve Blum later this month.

[@_NittiFire]

I met Daniel Logan and Temura Morrison. They are my favorite actors ever! Temura Morrison not only signed my photo, but my backpack, hat, shirt, and my little brother's shirt 😂

[@_NittiFire]

Also if you ever get to meet Ray Park (Darth Maul) also frickin amazing!

[@FindingTheForce]

Whaaat! You looked out man, that is awesome. Must have caught him early in the day, seems like a great guy who would be nice enough to do that.

[@jakemasterz09]

Hopefully he was mad at her?? What? You asked her to do it. Unless she knew she wasn’t supposed to film.

[@rockybalboa101]

Can you clear this up Ryan? Did Anthony sign for the woman after you?

[@FindingTheForce]

Hahaha… yeah, I asked her to film me… then found out there was no filming or pictures allowed. So I forgot to cancel that favor with the lady behind me. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[@FindingTheForce]

Haha hey Rocky, I’m pretty sure he signed for the guy she was with. I think she was just there for support. Totally forgot to ask her not to film me after I found out what the rules were.

[@jakemasterz09]

@@FindingTheForce then why do you want him to be mad at her?

[@General.Audience]

I met Gina Carano at San Diego Comic-Con before she was in Star Wars. After Carano retired MMA and did the reboot of American gladiators, she was signing autographs and taking photos with fans at Comic-Con for free, all you had to do was wait in line at her booth. I was lucky enough to meet her, super nice and beautiful in person.

[@FindingTheForce]

Wow Dan, I had no idea! I saw her line at a recent convention... it was crazy long! Thanks so much for sharing Daniel, I appreciate it.

[@mattdawg83686]

In 2014 I got to meet Jeremy Bulloch and Daniel Logan in Salt Lake City. Jeremy was the gentleman’s gentleman, and an absolute joy to take with. He wanted to know why it took me 34 years to meet him! Daniel actually walked up to my wife and I and started talking to us. He wanted to know where we were from and all kinds of stuff, and in the end he wanted to take a picture with us! In 2017 I worked overtime to do a photo op with Anthony Daniels, and he came off as a snob and spoke to my wife and not even to me; and I’m the Star Wars fan!

[@robertmask2223]

Expected line size is the reason why you don't see certain actors at conventions. A good example is Harrison Ford, he simply doesn't do autograph sessions due to the number of people who want to meet him.

[@MarkDemeo]

I've met many SW celebrities over the years. I've met Daniel several years ago,he was a super fun guy, Anthony was very charming just as you said in this video. Last year I did get to meet Hayden,he had a very long line, but was very friendly and even chatted with fans for a few moments. The line progressed quickly but not rushed.

[@FindingTheForce]

And apparently you forgot to mention Mark Hamill by the looks of your profile picture! 😮😆 That’s awesome Mark, glad to hear they were all good stories. Thanks for sharing man.

[@MarkDemeo]

@@FindingTheForce Yes I've met Mr Mark Hamill twice,many other stories I could share.

[@oneearrabbit]

I had the privilege of meeting Carrie Fisher, Peter Mayhew, Warwick Davis and Billy Dee Williams at various Star Wars Weekends when they used to have them at Hollywood Studios. Carrie, God rest her soul was just sort of there. Nice enough but not very chatty even during the Q&A. Billy Dee was the best even being an older gentleman and not being able to move around very well still posed for pictures and was just super charming and pleasant.

[@FindingTheForce]

That’s awesome Matthew, sounds like you almost have all of the original cast. I wonder if we will ever get a chance to get Mark Hamill’s autograph ever again? 😕🤷🏼‍♂️

[@oneearrabbit]

@@FindingTheForce It’s weird when he appeared at Star Wars Weekends he did not do an organized signing like the rest of the cast (I can’t even imagine how long that line would be). But after he did the parade and a little speech in front of the Chinese Theatre before heading off to his panel he signed and took pictures for a few fans gathered around the stage. So he obviously didn’t mind I just think Disney didn’t want to deal with a million Star Wars fans all wanting Mark Hamill’s autograph.

[@cdpetee]

In 2017 I went to SWC Orlando, and Sarah Michelle Gellar was there. She voiced an Inquisitor on 'Rebels' but I let all my 'Buffy' friends know in advance and asked if they wanted autos from her, and they all said YEAH... until they found out she was charging $150 a pop. Yeah, NO. At least that was better than the $200 that Felicity Jones wanted (LOL!) All my friends backed out, and so did I. Instead I got autos from Freddie Prinze Jr, Taylor Gray, Steve Blum, Vanessa Marshall, Tiya Sicar and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn - all of them FOR THE SAME PRICE as Sarah. Everyone was super nice and very appreciative of their fans.

[@FindingTheForce]

Daaang… sounds like it really pays off to shop around celebrities for prices. Ha ha.😆 I had no idea that there were so many fun celebrities out there who you can meet at conventions. Thank you so much for sharing your story man.

[@DRJ0315]

We even met Anthony daniels Ian mcdiarmid and whole clone wars cast at a smaller con in Nashville and same thing we got to talk with everyone alot longer. We met Haden Christiansen at NYCC 2021 and he signed our pops with quotes character names and talked with us for like 10 min he was amazing

[@user-neo71665]

Ashley is the greatest. I've met her once at an airport and have talked to her a few times online. If she said she's gonna check out your page she will do it. She often is online and looks at all the fan stuff about Ahsoka.

[@PBuffdaddy00]

I haven't had the chance to meet her in person, but back during the dark times in 2020-2021, a con in my state was doing video chats with celebrities. I met several Star Wars actors and others. I talked to Michael Biehn, who was really awesome, Taylor Gray, who voiced Ezra; John Turk, who was unmasked Sub Zero in MK3; and Ashley. Taylor was great, and I will be able to meet him in person at the end of July. John is a great guy. Michael was awesome as well. However, the best one was the video chat with Ashley. To my knowledge, I'd never met her before that video call. However, she knew who I was and asked me specifically about my Episode 8 Luke cosplay I did. I honestly was speechless. I was racking my brain trying to figure out how she knew me, but I never figured it out. She is such an awesome woman. I really hope I get to meet her in person one day. That was one of the coolest conversations I've had with a celebrity.

[@annabiotic1078]

Oooo… Star Wars actors that I’ve met: Ewan McGregor, Giancarlo Esposito, Rupert Friend, Ian McDiarmid, Anthony Daniels, Ashley Eckstein, Matt Lanter, JAT, Peter Mayhew, Jason Isaacs. With Anthony Daniels, don’t touch his table, don’t place anything on his table and don’t film him. You do that and he’ll be friendly. I knew that before so my experience was a good one. My most favorites are Ewan McGregor, Giancarlo Esposito, Rupert Friend, and Jason Isaacs. All of them are very engaging and you can tell that they are very thankful for their fans. I used to have Ian McDiarmid in this list but he’s changed a bit since I first met him. He used to be more friendly and more talkative. He’s super reserved and doesn’t say much. He doesn’t look too happy when he’s signing and doing photo ops. He used to be my absolute favorite. Not sure what’s going on with him. Maybe it’s his age. But v energetic in his panels. And he’s not rude or nasty in any way. Still very respectful. My ultimate favorite was Ewan McGregor! That guy omg. He emanates such warmth and positive vibes. And he’s super appreciative of his fans. ❤️ Btw, on the Ian photo op at another con, I grabbed my ass and it’s very obvious. So don’t feel bad for grabbing your junk. Ohhh.. you mentioned selfies. So Ian McDiarmid does do selfies at his table as does Giancarlo Esposito. I’m kinda surprised Ian does selfies being that he wants a divider between him and the fans during his photo ops but honestly I don’t blame Ian. He’s up there in age. Anthony Daniels does not do selfies.

[@FindingTheForce]

Hahahahaha!!! Thank you so much for the comment, that was hilarious! It sounds like we had a lot of the same experiences with the actors I met. That’s so funny that you grabbed Ewan’s butt! 🤣 Way to go 😉

[@CobyV28]

I met Amy Allen and Orli Shoshan (Aayla Secura and Shaak Ti) at a small Comic Con close to my hometown and I met Orli first and got my picture and an autograph from her. She was so sweet and then I met Amy Allen, whose booth was next to Orli's. I also got an autograph and a picture with Amy and suddenly Orli photobombed the pic 😂 It was funny and she actually posed with me and Amy. So I got my picture with both of them at the same time. It was a very wholesome and sweet moment. Highly recommend both of them, they're precious 💕

[@christopherprince7187]

I met Ashley Eckstein for a photo op with my fiancé and 9 month old baby and she stopped the shoot to get her phone out her bag to take a video selfie with us for her own instagram. We met her the next day for a signature and she recognised us and chatter for ages. Hands down the best celebrity I have ever met!

[@mjwalkerdance2902]

He wasn't friendly. He looks tired and after taking his picture he left really quickly. And I had another picture of the person who don the Boba fett costume for the Empire strike back and return of the jedi. He was cool in person.

Hey, great video. I’m still waiting for the day I can go to the SDCC or a Star Wars Celebration!!! I have been to the Pittsburgh ComiCon and the Steel City Con a lot over the past 25 years. I have met quite a few Star Wars celebrities and they’ve all been a great experience getting their autographs and getting pictures taken with them. Definitely one of my favorite actors to meet was Peter Mayhew a.k.a. Chewbacca got the pleasure of meeting him several times over the years. One of the nicest men you could ever meet and talk to. Also had the pleasure of meeting David Prowse a.k.a. Darth Vader also very nice gentleman. Never had the pleasure of meeting Carrie Fisher or Kenny Baker before they passed away so very sad about that. MTFBWYA!!!! 😎

I've never been to Celebration but I hope to one year! I _have_ been to a lot of Comicons and one FanExpo. I haven't been able to meet any Star Wars celebs yet but I get a few autographs and photo ops from other celebs I enjoy every time I've gone to a convention (and a few special events at Creation Entertainment's Supernatural cons). Despite not meeting any Star Wars ppl, I _did_ wear my Obi-Wan cosplay on a day I was meeting Nathan Fillion! I thought "space wizards are close enough to space cowboys!" and went with it. Granted, I had just acquired the cosplay and was really excited to wear it at the next possible opportunity and a photo op was the perfect place! And yeah, photo ops happen in like, 15 seconds, especially for the big guys! I don't know what face I'm making 90% of the time. I've only done two Table Photos, as I do prefer the photo op sessions! I have a table photo with Kevin Conroy after he signed my Arkham City action figure, he was super nice and we talked about the games and my costume-and he was doing table photos for free. I'll treasure that awesome interaction forever. The other table photo was with Billie Piper. It was late 2021 and photo ops were still done with the plexiglass barrier. I'd done plexiglass barrier pics at SpnCon earlier that year and they were still fun + often silly and playful, but it didn't _quite_ feel worth the price, so I chose a table pic at FanExpo. I'm taking a break from cons so I can save up for a Disney Park trip, but Celebration sells out so fast it'll be years before I can go anyways 😅

[@Obi-PK-Kenobi]

So far I've met and signatures from Ashley Eckstein, James Arnold Taylor and Matt Lanter. Mat and JAT signed a Clone Wars poster for me and I also got a selfie with JAT, hes VERY cool, I strongly recommend meeting him. Matt was pretty cool, did an great quote (for extra fee) on my poster. Ashley is Awesome, I got a pro photo with her with me cosplayed as Obi Wan and I had Ahsokas Clone Wars sabers, she held one and I the other. I also had her sign my Special Ed. Ahsoka Rebels saber box - bummed I forgot to get a pic of her signing that, I was so star struck and she was so cool.

@@FindingTheForce sure was!… I think the best thing I saw was the true to size imperial probe droid. Keep the awesome vids coming, can’t wait to see the new studio!

[@thephantomjedi3729]

I’ve heard Anthony Daniels is often not fun at these events sadly. :( I’m sure it is situation dependent, I just hear more bad stories about him. Probably because he is the most present. I hate the wall!!!! I am sad Ian does that! Distance is better, at least you can do some minor photoshop and move yourself closer. The wall ruins that!

[@jedixfettx8404]

Do not feel bad for doing that to Anthony he isn’t the best. He just wants money

[@FindingTheForce]

Oh no, he seemed like a nice enough guy. Have you heard a bad story about him?

[@jedixfettx8404]

@@FindingTheForce I’ve met him at Star Wars weekends at Hollywood studios and he would only sign one print and other people brought stuff he wouldn’t sign it and would just look at you. Idk he has certain restrictions whatever. I also don’t know why celebrities charge for photos or make a big deal like he did with you

[@TheEmperor2004]

@@jedixfettx8404 According to actors he wasnt nice behind the scenes.

[@alfredoleonardovila139]

ok I work in some movies new prequels ok? I met with all and some are great(Chris Lee, Ewan,etc) but my favorite is Mark, Mark and me are funny times and he introduced me to Carrie and Harrison(strange guy). I got a rare pics in episode 2 set and other like Christopher Lee going to set! with casual shirt etc, funny moments with Ray Park and some crazy star wars items!! and a draw by 20th Century Fox...changes to 21 Century Fox etc.

I got a bundle, got an autograph and picture with Christina Ricci, and two of the Charmed ones from Charmed. It was 50 each but if you got the bundle of was 80.

[@travelingboardgamer0314]

You felt so bad you went ahead and uploaded the video Anthony Daniel did not want you to take. "Sorry" Does it anyway. That doesn't seem sincere.

[@JoshtheSpooder]

It doesn't really matter though does it

[@willdband]

I'll be going next year, I can't wait

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey Willd! That’s awesome man, I’m super happy for you. I’m sad I won’t be able to make it, anywhere in the country I would’ve gone, I can’t be away from family for so long.

[@BookwormBelle1191]

Sharing my experience at Dublin Comic Con (Ireland) with getting photos with the celebrities, for the photo booth ones you pay a good amount of money for them and they're printed straight away for you but you get a cheaper rate for a selfie or selfie/autograph deal. Two volunteers for the convention sits with the celebrity handles the cash and the other takes the picture on the phone. Also depends on how popular the actor is for the rates that are charged. For example for Felicia Day it was roughly €80 for the autograph and selfie combo. Worth it, she was an absolute sweetheart

[@Darthjarjar6619]

This is a great video

Hey Mando, I know it’s taken a lot of time to win over your opinion, ha ha JK thanks so much for watching man.

Ewan is too charming ...he's dangerous.

[@FindingTheForce]

And you should check out some of the pictures he takes at the smaller conventions. He looked like he was way more fun and goofy. I think I caught him after a very long tour of doing like 500 interviews. Ha ha.

[@b5lurker71]

Totally like Amy to do that picture! Love her! :)

[@FindingTheForce]

She was so cool and down-to-earth. It sounds like you have met her?

[@BigRob558]

In the uk i have met . Stephan constitano ( gamorian guard) . warwick davis (ewok/ others) Dave prowse ( darth vader ) femi taylor ( Oola- who' was very lovely ! ) Jeremy bulloch ( original boba fet/ others) Rusty geoff ( jawa ) All the autographs i have given away to my brothers as i simply dont care so much about the movies anymore. I do love the mandalorian and book of boba though . Kenny baker ( R2D2) his last signing event he passed away just a few months later .

[@spacegames350]

will you be at star wars celebration London 2023 if so which days

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey space games, thank you so much for asking. Unfortunately my family needs me at home right now. I’ll have to wait till the next one. 😕🙏🏻

[@Klynch111]

I'm kinda the same as you in regards to not knowing to go autographs or photo, I'm going to dublin comic con in a few weeks and Peter weller(robocop) is going to be there. So got the photo op, also dominique mcgellorot (Queen maeve from the boys) is also there so ill get her autograph and maybe see if I can get a selfie as I've never done a con before so it's all new to me 😂

[@FindingTheForce]

That’s awesome Keith, it’s a really tough choice isn’t it! The choices get even more difficult when I was trying to decide what I wanted to have autographed. Have a fantastic time!

[@rockrollangel1972]

13:17 mark need to get Rosairo to sign that also

[@alonzohall8939]

Sorry about that good buddy about the choppy comment I met Jean Carlo Esposito while in New York while he was working on another project godfather of Harlem and about 10 to 11 years before that I got to meet James Earl Jones near times square and it was amazing stole a few precious moments of his time and he was very generous and very great great to meet so those are the few people from Star wars I have had the honor to meet but great video God bless you and the family May the force be with you always

[@FindingTheForce]

No apology necessary Alonzo, I appreciate your comments. James Earl!! No way… that must’ve been super exciting. If I met any of these actors randomly on the street I probably would have been too shocked to ask any intelligent questions. Ha ha I guess that’s one advantage to the conventions. Thanks so much for keeping the comment section positive. Take care and be safe.

[@rhook88]

It’s a public place mate which means you are legally allowed to record, on video as much as you want. You should have stood your ground.

[@Fizggig]

yeah.....met Ian at the Chicago SWC and he was the same way. I tried to make some small talk with him and he was not really having it. He just wanted to sign and leave lol. No worries tho he's and older gent and I'm sure this stuff is more like ugh fine I will doooo itttttt these few times because its in my contracts lol

[@FindingTheForce]

Yeah, that’s nice of you to have a good attitude about it. Got a cut the old fogeys a break. But I’m so glad I got a picture and his autograph because, who knows how many more celebrations we have with him. 😬😆

[@DRJ0315]

Hey man me and my wife met ewan in San Antonio Super hero comic right after celebration in August and they told us that same thing in line but we talked with him for like 10 min and he put the quote "I will do what I must" and character name on our duel on mustafar funko pop he was amazing and afterwards he gave my wife a hug and gave me a fist bump he is amazing I would suggest going to the smaller cons they tend to be better you can talk with them alot longer

[@LeviDerringer]

I've heard Anthony is kind of a jerk, so I wouldn't worry about it.

[@Critic_Chris90210]

@ Finding The Force: 👍Great video dude. I never been to a Star Wars convention yet but would be awesome if the time comes. I been however attend other conversations where I met celebrities of all kinds. And many are so nice and took time to talk with me about previous works they've done. I so nervous meeting Amy Jo Johnson in person in 2019 in Minneapolis that after talking with her I had a bad headache come on,lol. Bad enough that there was two hours before my next Photo Op with Cobra Kai cast William Zabka and Martin Kove, and told my friends I can't wait that long so we left. I've done alot of Video Chats aswell which were great. One of them being with actress Olivia D' Abo, which I think I only paid for 2 minute chat but the two of us got to chatting so much I guess , dunno if she lost track of time or something but the chat lasted 8 minutes. So I know I got more than I paid. She was that nice and polite and easy to talk with. She's funny too imitating Arnold,lol. Actress Cerina Vincent was really nice too and easy talk to. I can't wait to be going to Flashback Weekend in Chicago next month to meet horror celebrities.

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey Christopher! Thank you so much for watching and sharing. I have never done an online video chat through a convention before, but I think I would be up for it. Conventions are so much fun, I'll definitely be going to more in the future. Take care!
