ECCC over for another year.
Just got home a little while ago from Emerald City Comic Con 2016. It was actually the worst con since I've been here as far as celebrity guests was concerned, but we still had a good time. Stayed two nights at our beloved Paramount Hotel, went to the Paramount Theater Froday night and saw "Star Trek Ultimate Voyage" which was mind-blowingly incredible... one of the best shows I've ever seen in my LIFE!
Spent a lot of Saturday being Sam and Frodo, which we always love.
And there were a few guests who were worth seeing.
Saw Sean's panel today. My god, he has really gained weight. I feel bad for the guy. After just winning that 'Iron Man' thing a few short months ago, he stops training and wow! Just goes to show you that it can happen fast and you can't get complacent about that kind of thing. He was his usual talkative self and it was fun to see him.
Saw Captain Tight Pants who was his usual charming, irrepressible self. I adore Nathan.
But the BEST moment came when we were at the WETA booth and the WETA people called a bunch of us dressed as Tolkien characters back behind the counter with them for pictures.
Right now I'm suffering from the post-con blues. Always takes me a couple days to shake it off. Feeling really sad. But.. I expect it'll pass.
The con wasn't nearly as good as it has been in previous years, but we still had a good time. Had dinner last night with voontah and her sweet hubby, Doug and that is always a treat. All in all... a good weekend.
