| Yeah I've been waiting on confirmation on this before announcing. |
Sorry, I was visiting another forum when I noticed another member posting that he was going to Chicago Comic-Con. I checked the Wizard Universe web site; they had the info up; it looked kosher to me. I honestly don't believe that Wizard would've put up that info if it weren't legit.

By the way, don't forget you not only need the special "Autograph Tickets" but you also need tickets to the actual convention. So altogether to get a ticket to get in and get a ticket for an autograph it'll cost you about $70 or more. |
Expense...Yes. But, considering it's Michelle...Totally worth it!
| QUOTE |
| P.S. I hadn't heard anything about Weaver, Macguire, Downey, nor Bosworth, where did you read that? |
My apologies on that, Leigh...I misread the Chicago con info for upcoming New York & San Diego events. My bad. :scared:
However, Loken will be in Chicago.
PS.
Ray...Your new user name...Riot! :hitself:
Shantelle - June 17, 2009 10:03 AM (GMT)
Damn I wish they would of had this during the first week of May because that was when I was in Chicago. :(
pitdroid3 - June 17, 2009 05:05 PM (GMT)
That's....that's not @#$%ing fair. :(
I go to the new york comic-con and the wizard world philly convention every year, and the only one she's going to be at isn't one of those? Man, this is the kind of news that reminds me of why I stopped coming to this site as often. Just something to tease me, with Michelle being the carrot at the end of the stick on the treadmill that is my life.
Admin - June 17, 2009 05:45 PM (GMT)
Sorry bro.
*pats you on the back as you run on the treadmill*

| wats a comic-con? |
comic-book-convention.
Tons of comic book store/dealers and the artists and writers that make them get together to sell comics, sign autographs, meet fans, etc. Celebrities go there for signings to make extra $ and presumably to meet people dressed like Boba Fett. If the con has a theater, they'll premiere new movies ahead of everywhere else, hold interviews with the actors and directors.
annie_mexiban - June 20, 2009 05:08 PM (GMT)
I was watching the Wizards of Waverly Place and an episode came up where they all went to comic con... I thought it was just made up...
Oops!! :P
LettyToretto - June 20, 2009 05:48 PM (GMT)
Hahah.! I Know That Episode.!
annie_mexiban - June 20, 2009 05:54 PM (GMT)
LOL!!!
Im 21 and still watch the Disney Channel!!
So sad....
Shame on me!!
LettyToretto - June 20, 2009 06:17 PM (GMT)
LOL. I'm 19 And I Watch It. Hahaha.!
Dun Feel Bad.! LOL.

So when will Michelle be coning to Vancouver Canada to promote Avatar
If it's not on her schedule it should be. Lots of fans up here.
Admin - June 21, 2009 02:47 PM (GMT)
Well it's not up to her at all. It's all up to where FOX wants to send the primary cast for promotion and/or premieres. I would say that on top of the obvious main Los Angeles premiere....my guess would be the other premieres will likely be held in (again this is just an educated guess but I'm sure I'm not far off):
UK
Germany
France
Spain
Mexico
China
Australia (or New Zealand since that's where it primarily filmed)
I would say the bulk of promotion will be occurring in those areas as well as LA, NY, etc. As for whether or not they do anything involving Canada, who knows. Typically it'd be doubtful but since James Cameron is a Canadian so you never know if they might want to do something in his home country. Just gotta wait and see. Last time she got her info in mid-January for a tour that began mid-March, so it's likely that nothing will be known about her AVATAR promotional schedule until at least October.
pitdroid3 - June 22, 2009 03:42 AM (GMT)
I was at the Wizard World Philly convention Saturday, they had people handing out pretty big, full-color fliers with her on it as appearing in Chicago. Michelle and Rhona Mitra were 50/50 on the front page (pics from their movies) with other celebs like Robert Downey Jr. on the back page.
Admin - June 22, 2009 03:47 AM (GMT)
Interesting. Still remains unknown though. Will let you guys know at some point the final word on the situation.
pitdroid3 - June 22, 2009 03:52 AM (GMT)
I'll put a picture up tomorrow of the flier. If it's a mistake, then it's a damn big "oopsie" because it's a really nicely printed/designed flier.
LostSoul - June 22, 2009 05:07 AM (GMT)

Thanks for that, Pit...
This is all very confusing.
LettyToretto - June 22, 2009 03:52 PM (GMT)
Maybe They Just Did It For Publicity. You Know.
Just To Get People Out There. I Say Hey, Thats
What Drew Me There. And If She's Not Going, I
Still Have To Go Cuz The Wife LOOOOOVES ThatS
Sorta Stuff. LOL.
Lost Angel - June 22, 2009 04:29 PM (GMT)
Aww, hopefully she'll make it if you still have to go. ;)
Admin - June 22, 2009 06:46 PM (GMT)
Ok, well it's true! She WILL be there. Long story, lol. Anyway, have fun peeps who are going!
rosedragon - June 22, 2009 08:51 PM (GMT)
She's there to promote Avatar right? Cameron and Worthington are going tp comic con. don't know which one though
Admin - June 22, 2009 08:54 PM (GMT)
Not really. Mainly it's just an autograph signing. Whether or not she does a Q&A or talks to press about Avatar though....don't know.

Woo...And hoo!!! :cheers: :clap: :party:
Thank you for that, Leigh *hug*...I was so worried that I had made a big mistake there. So glad that our girl is gonna make her first big convention splash at Comic-Con!
Of course...I can't be there! *sob* :cry:
Congrats to those who got their tickets and are raring to go! Be sure to post lots and lots of pictures when you can! :wave:
