COLIN FIRTH SUCCESS, alan rickman fail

[mymymy]

I got Colin Firth's autograph yesterday before and after a special event, paying tribute to Harold Pinter. He signed 2 on the way in and one on the way out for me, his sig is an initial type thing (becoming more an more common these days), the 3rd one (whilst he was leaving and signign whilst walking) was even worse.
He was nice enough but nothing special, he refused to pose for a pic.

Alan Rickman also attended but signed for 2 people on the way in and no one saw him leave.

It is so annoying becasue I waited severla hours just for Alan to come out, Despite seeing him IP 3 times i have had such bad luck, 1st all I had was Harry Potter or blank paper which he doesnt sign, the second time I had nothing on me but got a pic with him, then yesterday (the 3rd time) he hardly signed atall. I m determined to get him eventually.

I will have to carry a few pics of him everywhere as he often turns up watching shows and at events but is very fussy about what he signs, apart from no Harry Potter or blank items I have also heard he doent sign items already with other sigs as he doesn like 'moneymakers' - he thinks everyone wheo gets his auto will sell it! I really want him to sign my "Love Actually" sleev though.

Wow, I didn't know Alan Rickman was so selective.
Nice Colin Firth success though {thumb2}

Oh, yah, tell me about it, no Harry Potter, no autograph books or blank pages, no items with other signatures on already and then his mood changes so much that sometimes he signs alot and sometimes one or two, sometimes not atall. I am learning to have a back up item just in case he says no to the first one.

colin was shy but nice, i think he is quite private and reserved

how did you know that they were in that place?
Well, I hope you will get lucky one day and get Alan's signature on that Love Actually cover. Whose elses signatures are missing there? Did you get Keira's in person as well?

[mymymy]

I heard a rumour Colin would be there but had no idea who else would be there.

Thanks, ive got Rowan Atkinson, Richard Curtis, Emma Thompson and now Colin Firth, I want them all eventually, never met Kiera IP but really want Martine McCutcheon in particular and Hugh Grant of course.

[baunty_lt]

oh, I saw a signature on Keira's photo so thought it was her signature. Yeah, Hugh Grant is amazing. He has sth charming, xexe I would like to meet him as well

[mymymy]

I dont know about Benedict, but I keep an eye on theatre events taking place in London. This one was advertised quite prominently on theatre websites etc. I wrote to Colin, Alan & a few others just in case. No replies yet (am not expecting much).

Regarding Rickman. Here is a video of Alan signing and about 25 seconds in you can hear him say no Harry Potter...even when the guy asked it to be personalized. Wierd.

hey, you forgot to add the link. I would like to see that.
I don't understand why he is like that. I mean he plays Snape in every movie. If he didn't like HP, why would he keep doing that?
