Almost a week since Comic Con France ♥ (pics)
Ok, it's been almost a week since my trip to France, and particularly to the Comic Con in Villepinte-Paris ♥ and I felt like finally writing a tiny review of those 3 days :D
All the pictures in the album are watermarked and edited, but if ANY of you want a specific photo or a specific set of photos just tell me and I will gladly give you the zipped folder with the original pics :D
...more here
Long and possibly most boring review ever, but had to be done XD
I think it's pointless to say that it was a spectacular experience, since I've never been to a Comic Con or an Expo so it was a double enjoyment and surprise ♥
About Merlin ... well, we've been queuing a lot, since the first panel was "first come, first served" so me and Rella (youngwarlock) were supposed to be there very early, but she had problems with the bus, so we didn't make it there early enough... it was all sold out :/
The second signing was by draw, and frankly I was 100% that I wasn't going to get the ticket. We had to choose between Colin, Katie and Bradley: I was like YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY LET ME CHOOSE!!!! ç_____ç
Then, Katie's box was just there calling for me and I picked the tiny piece of paper from her box and I got the "gagnè" ticket. I was in the "this cannot be real" mood for the next two hours of course, needless to say.
I was there with the super, super lovely emmahyphenjane (which helped me get through the boring and long wait to the panels) along with the sweet chaosmaka and her lovely german friend and youngwarlock which made the experience more real and exciting!
There was the screening of the first two eps (in French ) and we didn't stop there to watch them because we had to be careful about the panels, with the seats and stuff.
When we finally got sight of them it was the most surreal thing ever, because they didn't look like human or something XD (it happened the same thing with Matthew Fox, so I guess it's normal XD) and I just remember that I bit Emmajane's shoulder hard, and screamed "O MIO DIOOOO" (omg) XD
First impressions:
Colin doesn't look that thin like on TV, he looks quite normal, and he doesn't look extremely tall, but it was probably because he spent most of the time sitting on the chair XD (Also, at the second signing I had the best of luck to see his eyes veeery close and I can honestly say they are incredibly beautiful.
Colin choose the moment I was there to get an autograph from Katie to bend over and make me faint]
(thanks to latb90)
Katie... well, veeeery first impression was that she looked shorter than I thought XD but as Emmajane said it is probably because she always wears high heel shoes on Merlin, and with the long dresses I guess it's quite the expected effect ^^
But then I was like OMG she's so damn pretty; she was wearing the same backless-shirt she has been wearing in Pierrefonds a week before and an orange skirt with large white spots that touched her knees. She looked incredibly stunning.
I was sad at first that she had her hair in a ponytail XD but then I noticed how smooth and soft they looked and when she moved/when she touched them it was like they were made of silk *.* (this is a Katie McGrath hair appreciation topic)
So yeah, she didn't disappointing at all, if not she made me love her even MOAR. How's that possible I HAVE NO IDEA.
- She was the most funny and adorable of the trio, she smiled to EVERYONE, she even signed to people who didn't get the tickets, she made jokes... she was incredible ♥
Bradley... first impression: his hair shines... seriously, I thought it was just something that people wrote on the Fan Fictions XD. As for the rest, it looked like "the most real" of the three, I can't explain why XD
He was the most cautious of the 3, like he smiled when he really had to AND when he was talking to Colin, which proves my theory that he just can't resist him XD
Anyway... he makes a FINE figure. More than fine, but whatever XD
*nice moments:
.Katie running all through the winding line just to sign an autograph to a little kid; she was there before the security had even realized what she was doing: epic ♥ (her hair were literally dancing while she run *.*)
.Katie squeeing with us during the S3 trailer when she appeared wearing the crown *.*
.Bradley and Colin whispering to each other and all the audience and the panel were watching them because they were ignoring everything else. OH REALLY?
.At the signing the woman standing in the line before me showed Katie a pretty picture of the week before where she was wearing the same shirt she said that, and I said "we noticed XD" and she was like "I swear I have more clothes in my wardrobe!" XD
.Katie pronouncing my name in the most weird and wrong way XD and me being a sack of potatoes and just saying YEAHHH that's my name and THANK YOU.
.Julian Jones being adorable to all the fans. MUCH more than Johnny Capps, which personally I can't stand XD
Can't think of anything else right now... but well, I just love them a lot, and I'm glad I had the chance to see them and be close to the three amazing people of one of my favorite show ♥
Oh, thank you to the lovely chaosmaka, tindy & phoenixacid for the lovely V-gifts ♥ you rock girls! *.*
