Its a two way street on communication. If the artist was quiet then go ahead and ask him something, engage him. They are not there to entertain you with a stand up session or to constantly provide witty anecdotes about the industry. If he slighted you by being arrogant or rude that's a different story, but witty banter at an artist signing is not a prerequisite...Olly wrote:Hey, sorry if you felt this way. I get really nervous and flustered at signings. I tried to talk to a lot of people yesterday but for the most part they seemed very quiet. Anyway, I apologise if you felt slighted by anything I did and I can assure you it was totally unintentional and no harm was meant.TNspreadhead wrote:You'd think he would be more appreciative of his american fans, maybe he was having an off day but was kind of a total dick to those who waited for 5 hours in line, not to mention it was a signing with a "bonus" print drop.

Who waited in line 5 hrs and why? I was there at 6:30 and I bought the gorgeous Mr. Smith print and brought my Dark Knight print and Olly very graciously signed it. I do wish I had more cash though cause I wanted the Looper print as well as the Dredd, and Creature from the Black Lagoon. Was Thrilled to get the Mr. Smith print though cause its one of my fav movies.

Loved the print

Met Olly at the Simpsons night and he was down to earth, talkative and a bloodly good bloke
Print looks great!

I met Olly @ Paper Cuts. He pulled me & a friend out of the line & brought us in the back door prior to opening. Yes, there's a back story that's not important. The point is that both my friend & I had the distinct impression that Olly did this much to the shagrin of Jensen.

Got enough Olly to start a full Olly wall, LOTR, MR. Smith, Princess Mononoke, Adventure Time Finn, Dark Knight.
