You know for a whole year, this is what they came up with and its cause the "Family" have ****ed off so many people over the years that NO ONE wants to comeback and do the con!!!


SAD.

[Jorge Galvan]

The story so far. This is ALL from SUNDAY, the last day as I did NOT GO ON SATURDAY. I was too ****ed off from Friday and I got a call from work asking if I wanted to come in to work Saturday. It was a no brainer. as I could go make some $ or go and deal with Arseholes!

Anyway here are more pics below.

to Okay all the above was from the "History room" for lack of a better word. Half the room was the above, the other half was the history of "G Fest from 94-23." These were the ONLY photos I took on Sunday as I was just too out of it and tooo Knackered and Too ****ed off. I know I probably will change my mind but this might be my LAST G Fest.


Im gonna do the Thursday night from the Pickwick theatre only three shots. And I apologize for my LACK of Photography. I know I suck!! I just point and 'click'. Apologies all.

Thursday was when they have the double feature in the afternoon, but you have to PAY SEPERATE for each film. Unless you pay the "Ultimate Pass" for all films on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I went Thursday night after work and saw SPACE GOGIRA and 1984. (Would have Preferred 1985!!) and I took shots of the Merch they had for sale. $50 quid for a fkn shirt!! Just cause of the Pickwick theatre!!! ***!!! ROBBERS!!! OKay, I need to run to the Dollar and 25 cent store and get some lunch. Will post more later.



Enjoy.

Friday the first day was a Cluster****! The line wrapped all over the hotel lobby and it was chaos. Gee? You have two films back to back and one wins an Academy award and one makes Bank! What were you NumbNuts thinking???? (I learned Sunday that the total amount was over 6000 Guests at the show). I have photos to show how bad it was. I was there at 9:45am and I did not get to a panel until after 11:15am. I missed my 10:00am Ulltraman Panel and the Ghidorah Panel at 11:00 was misprinted in the guide and it was set for 12:00! Instead they had the "Isle of Godzilla panel" a 11:00! ****!!! I was ****ed and then when I went to get a program, they wanted $3.00 for one or $5.00 for two. I nearly burst a blood vessel. I gave the Seahag a fiver and asked for a reciept. She said she didn't have one.


"WRITE ONE OUT NOW!!!" I yelled at her. She had one of her colleagues write one.


Then you had an ARMY of morons running around either in their COSPLAY outfits clogging up traffic OR you had absentee parents neglecting their Spawn as they were running around like it was a Bleedin' Playground!!! M******-F******!!!!!!!


I relaxed at the MARUSAN panel and I have most of the pics from that later on.

I then attended the MODEL ROOM below and I did not take pictures, I took VIDEO. I did a whole room 15 minute vid and then later on and SUnday I did individual shoots as it was packed on Friday the first time and I didn't want to clog traffic like others!! Do I upload here or do I do it on youtube and provide the link???? You're talking to a caveman here.


And yes, the dealers room is also coming, Maybe I will have time on Sunday to do it. Getting a bit tired, will post the traffic jam shots and maybe the Marusan shots.


Once more into the breach...
