I went today (Saturday) and just had an incredible time! This was my first time ever going to a horror con, and it couldn\'t have been better.
First I thought it was odd because there was a HUGE line, four hour wait, to meet Tobin Bell. He was great. Seems like SAW really worked out for his career.
I actually met Hunter, aka White Faceman, first... Hunter kinda split right after he bought the Texan Thomas blank.
I met J. Larous (Troy from SAW) first. He was really nice, laid back kind of guy. He said he wanted to get in line for Sid Haig and Tobin Bell. :lol:
Leigh Whannel was my favorite person to meet. We (brandon, jon, me) brought some of our SAW props to get signed, and he was just over joyed and excited to see that. Must be a dream come true or something when your movie has this much of an impact. Well, he just started signing some of our stuff for free, and took pictures of us. I thought that was funny. He was a really nice guy, and seemed to be having a great time as well.
Shawnee Smith was really nice as well, and liked the Pig mask and Reverse Bear trap. Barry Flattman (Judge from SAW III) was cool and so was Noam Jenkins (Micheal, Venus Fly Trap guy, SAW II) was cool as well. Tobin was great. I got a picture signed by him, he was really nice and not an ass considering he had literally thousands of people to meet. I love the picture he signed too. It was a little bit rushed, but still cool. There was also a big display thing, with a couple shelves enclosed in glass. I loved seeing it. There was the Reverse Bear Trap,
I also met Kane Hodder, who was really nice and scary as hell, Warrington Gillet who seemed to need his fans more than they needed him. LOL I met some others as well, but the last was Gunnar Hansen, who was REALLY cool to us. He wore Brandon\'s Pretty Woman mask (picture above), and seemed to be a little excited when he saw Brandon in his costume. We had a great time, I got a picture signed by him as well.
Took a while, but they finally displayed the Billie puppet (SAW III) on a table. Looked pretty damn cool, but I thought it wasn\'t as good as the first puppet, and is in no way worth $20 just to take a picture of it... I snuck one anyways.
Lastly, I wore the screen used Venus Fly Trap from SAW II, it was an awesome experiance. Not so heavy as I thought. It was awesome, very realistic. I thought it was great, and awesome to wear something from the actual film!
I\'ll post some pictures later, and scans of my autographs (and possibly a video). I have to have them developed.
In conclusion, I had an amazing time. :teehee:
