Nooooooo! Anchan, you gotta find a way to get that video online! If only for the very end, when Joel was holding out a microphone to a guy sitting in front of us (we were in the second row) and the guy asked if there were any big plans for the 20th anniversity of MST3K, and Joel is just sloooowly shaking his head with this michevious little smile, all like, "Sorry man, I can't say anything." *dies* Edit: By the way, check this out, it's a much better report of the Saturday panel. ^^

I would loooove one of those T-shirts Anchan if you're making them! And you definitely have to get that video up, because I just watched the one that Robyn linked and I can't be left hanging! I gotta know how it ends! Or make a DVD and send it to me or something. I gotta see all of it! ;D
Joel's hearty laugh is a rare thing to behold, so it was definitely nice to see him being all playful like that. He was also wearing some very interesting shoes...I wonder what those were...I love how Frank tried to hand over the microphone to Trace for the Mary Tyler Moore segment, and he didn't know the words. The look on his face was priceless! But I am sad that Trace didn't really say anything. He really is the quiet one!
Where were the two of you sitting for that panel? I can't imagine you'd settle for anything less than the very front! Hell, I'd knock people over to sit right across from Joel! ;D
*sigh* You guys are so lucky...
*EDIT* Nevermind about the seating question. I re-read Robyn's post that said you guys were in the second row!

Yeah...Joel probably did a lot of cocking-his-head-at-you-and-saying-something-weird during his stay. XD If we were actually in the front row we probably would have been right across from Joel! Robyn estimated where everyone was gonna be before we sat down; that's probably why we were way over on the left. >.>

It is my sad duty to inform you all that we were asked today not to post any video from recent expo-con-fests. San Jose in particular. Look for a PM-to-all explaining further

Well, poopie. I'll remove the link to that other video, then. Also, I plead ignorance - me and Anchan didn't see anything prohibiting video cameras, and we certainly would have turned it off if asked. I mean, we were litterally right in front of Joel, he'd have to been blind not to see it! XD

Don't worry, we aren't being singled out, this is a fanbase-wide proclamation.
However, as I understand it, photos of the events are allowed, but none of them new-fangled moving pictures ya youngin's are in to.

Yeah...Joel probably did a lot of cocking-his-head-at-you-and-saying-something-weird during his stay. XD At one point during the Sunday panel, he was suddenly like, "Okay, we're gonna do a little improv, and Josh, you're gonna be Tom Servo, right, and Trace, you'll be Crow, and uh, Frank, you come in as TV's Frank...and we'll just see where it goes," and everyone's looking at him like, "Are you high?" XD I just realized that's totally me in the back with the blue shirt. And...yep, the person in the green shirt behind me is Anchan, and the other person with the red shirt over her arm is her friend. That must've been taken just as Frank was signing the Fangirl shirt. He was all like, "Oh yeah, this is cool...I mean, I wouldn't wear it, but..." ;D On a related note: Anchan, your shirt is famous! XD

That is sooo cool! I definitely want one now!
And now we know what Frank thought of your shirt Robyn, but what did the man of the hour have to say??? Heck, you said you were more confident when speaking to him this time, so what the heck did you talk about for the 30 seconds you had with him? *holds breath* XD

Heck, you said you were more confident when speaking to him this time, so what the heck did you talk about for the 30 seconds you had with him? *holds breath* XD Well, I didn't ask him for his hotel key, sorry to dissapoint. XP Let's see, when I first talked to him, right after the Saturday panel, I was really worried that they'd leave before Anchan would be able to see them. When I asked a guy at the registration booth if there would still be a Sunday panel (because they screwed up the Saturday panel time, it seemed like I shouldn't trust the schedule that was on the website), he made it sound like it was very unlikely, and said that it was entirely up to Joel, so I decided I should ask the man himself. So I did, simply telling him that my friend might not make it today so I just wanted to know if they'd be around tomorrow, 'cause she'd been really looking forward to meeting them. He assured me that they WOULD be there the next day, and I was really happy to hear that and thanked him. I also showed him my Tom Servo plushie, saying, "Okay, I know you've seen a gazillion homemade Tom Servos, but have you ever seen THIS?" and he was pretty impressed. We then shook hands and he thanked me for stopping by. The second time I talked to him, I had Anchan and her friend with me. Poor Anchan was so nervous! (I was too, but I was a little better at hiding it. Hopefully. XD )She was a little embarrassed about showing any of the Titans the Fangirl shirt, but me and her friend convinced her that we had to get it signed, though I admit I hesitated a bit before showing it to Joel! But Joel was cool about it and commented on how it was a well-made shirt. XP Really, I didn't talk to him much at all, it was mostly Frank who I ended up talking to. It was so funny - after Anchan and her friend showed up and we realized that the guys would be back at their booth at 4PM, we wandered around the con for a bit, 'cause we had some time to kill before then, and Frank suddenly appeared at my side like, "Hey! How you guys doing?" XD So I introduced them and we chatted for a little bit, mostly about how damn hot it was in that stupid greenhouse of a convention center. The only time I really said anything to Joel was when after the Sunday panel, when we were about to leave. Me and Anchan stopped by the booth one last time, and while we were waiting in line, Trace, getting a quick hot dog in before doing some more signing, came up to me and apologized about shooting my question down and said he didn't really remember how to do Gregory Peck anymore. I dunno, maybe he thought I looked crushed when he said "NO," but I wasn't, I thought it was hilarious, and told him so, saying it was an excellent Gregory Peck refusal. Anyway, when I got to Joel, I told him, roughly, "Well, we're taking off soon, I just wanted to say it was great seeing you, I don't think you even understand how cool it is for us to just be able to meet and talk to you guys, so thanks for humoring us. And...thanks for just giving the riffing thing another shot, and just good luck with everything, really." God, I'm such a dweeb. XP (FYI, I gave this little speech to all the guys, and they all thanked me and said they had a great time and it was always a pleasure to meet with the fans. I doubt it's ALWAYS a pleasure, but it's nice of them to say so. ;D )

LOL...I was too busy squeeing over what happened to talk about the lameness that is South Hall! (at least on hot days...Sunday was nice.) Complete with overpriced drinks kept in a FRIDGE THAT DOESN'T FRIDGE. <__<
...wow. You know how they said if you come in costume you get your ticket half off? I just thought of the perfect outfit we could have assembled to wear to this con. You'll probably guess what it is. XD;;;;

I'm gonna guess / I'm gonna guess !
it involves a cool, famous FanGirl T-shirt that Frank would never wear . . . . . . . . . and that's it !!
( But everyone still signs it see . . . and it's a whole different bunch of sites showing that video ! )
