Maybe we should just make one thread of all 'Cons'.

Maybe if he does a lot of them, we can make a subforum for cons? :mrgreen:

A little bit of news on JI's attendance of the Phoenix Comic Con:

http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/guests

Scroll down to Jason Isaacs to see his schedule. Will be there on Friday and Saturday.
The bio still says that he is filming DIG (?!) to premiere on March 5th, 2015. So it was written a looooong time agooo.

And he is more expensive here (with tax). Photo Op $75.75!

And has he done some photos for Esquire Black Book recently? I found these online:

1. He IS a dapper gent, Tosca.

2. Jason has a stunning work history (I bet you guys knew that though). I just sat and read his Phoenix Comic Con bio with my jaw on the floor. I think that's worth $50-125.75 (plus tax).

3. I can't go to Phoenix Comic Con, but if I could, first I'd make a bee line for Jason's area, and then I'd be all geeky rushing around to try to get to all these other people I see are going to be there (Diana Gabaldon?! Author of OUTLANDER! And Chuck Wendig?! Amazing writer and regular makes me LOL on Twitter). And Dave Morrissey!! I hope Jason and Dave get to do at least one fabulous dinner outing while in Phoenix and catch up. Because I hear they're friendly ;-) ...and because that'd be a lot of amazing amazingness in one restaurant. :D

Phew, finished my report. I'm alive now!

Ah, Dave Morrissey in Phoenix too. They are going to have a ball, those two! I bet they will be next to each other at the boots on Saturday, at the same time.

Just hope Jason has time to see Phoenix, because he said he saw nothing of Houston, only the hotel room and the Comic venue.

Does anyone know if these photos are recent?

Dapper gent indeed! (I had to look the meaning of dapper in dictionary...) :heart

The photos are great - look at him - all get me out of this shirt!!!

The prices of the autographs and pictures are all over the map - some lower than I expected and some higher! I don't begrudge them the money and I hope they get to keep most - if not all for autogs and photogs but I will date myself by saying that I went to some Star Trek conventions in the early/mid 70s - the actors mixed and talked with fans and most graciously signed programs & pictures and were happy to take pictures with fans. I also attended a ton of Sci-Fi Cons in LA in the early 80s and same thing - although not as much mixing with fans but they usually had an autograph table set up and the celebs always stayed an hour or two and signed free autographs until their poor fingers got numb. Of course I don"t think we geeks ever sold our hard sought after autographs (I still have all of mine from those fun days!!!!!) But Conventions are big business now days - the more high profile celebrities that come - the more fans attend. I'm so happy to see Jason attending some (I know he was at Comic Con but that was so huge!)

I hope someone on the boards gets to go to one of these smaller conventions - they are fun!

Someone filmed a bit from his panel:

Talks about working with kids and animals in the first one, and Starkid (A Very Potter Musical) in the second.
