We just got back.

It certainly was a zoo and the biggest problem was that the con was poorly organized in terms of the interface with the fans.

Autographs are $25 Cash (didn't see any cc) per one signature; pictures to sign are available in the line. Summer is very sweet (she was there with her sister) and Alan is quite funny, as you can imagine. Both were willing to take pictures across the table (I'm sure they'll be tired tonight).

Ah, that's so cool. Summer told me about her sister... Was she there with Katelyn? or Chrissy?

And of course what I'm sure, everyone wants...PICTURES AND STORIES!

We just got home too. We ended up plunking down a nice chunk, but are so pleased with our mementos. Our photos came out beautifully. Once my husband gets them scanned I can post a link if anyone is interested.

I will agree with everyone else that this is the most disorganized convention I've ever been to. My husband wanted to see George Romero, and we got there at the very beginning, and no one from the show was there, so he had some fan taking the money. I don't know if he even got money from half the people in the line at the time. Also, there was no way to really shop the booths because the aisles were too small.

But the important part is that Alan was gracious and funny, and Summer was sweet and looked beautiful, and I loved that they were interacting back and forth -- "You know, there was a PSYCHIC on the ship that could have warned me to duck, but NO, she wanted my job!" and so on. You could tell that they were enjoying themselves, but they will most likely be quite tired this evening. It was such fun meeting them.

Just posted a long review at http://www.serenitystuff.com/2006/01/29/fx-convention-review . Short version: Hectic, crowded, not enough to do, impossible to browse comfortably, and Alan and Summer were worth every minute of it.

Roger all the above, waited about 25 min to get in and until about 2pm it was packed. I entered the costume contest as Wash but didn't make the final cut. We got to go now to the Hard Rock in Orlando for the FX Party. Don't know which celebrity judges will be there but I will write more tomorrow. We had a blast!! Allan and Summer were fantastic, Summer loved the Best Performance award from all the Firefly fans. She kept it with her all day long. Anyway more about the comic con tomorrow we are heading back.

Did anyone go to the costume contest at Hard Rock Orlando? Did our BDHs show up?

Yes,our BDH both Summer and Alan were there as Judges. The FX party at the Hard Rock was fantastic got to meet a lot of local browncoats. I was hoping we might get a little Q&A session but that didn't happen. Summer and Alan did ask some question and had some funny comments. Summer came out after the show to the party talked with a few people and some of us took pictures. Didn't see Alan after the show. Only one entry with a Serenity theme made it to the Costume contest, a young girl dressed as Zoe wearing the dress that Zoe wore in the movie. She did not win but made it as a finalist. Day two is underway last day to see Alan and Summer
