Fan Expo has gotten too big & expensive for me but I used to go every year. Not going this year because I recently had surgery. But I went last year on the Sunday with my Son & we had a blast & got to meet Jim Shooter (no charge) & went to the Welker/Cullen TF panel. Enjoy Micheal!
Maurice LaMarche and Rob Paulsen are fantastic live. I saw them in Chicago and could not stop smiling. What fun, I'm so glad you saw them. We have a Fan Expo in Chicago also. The cosplay is great, there's a strong presence from the Windy City Ghostbusters, and the panels are fun. Toronto looks like a great city to explore. I went there once as a kid after visiting the NY side of Niagara Falls. It's on my list of places to vacation to (again).
Toronto is gigantic, and incredibly busy. Nice place to visit but I couldn’t deal with that slow traffic on a daily basis. Is Chicago similar? Always wanted to visit the Windy City.
@@MichaelMercy I take the trains when I can to avoid driving unless I'm going to a play or somewhere on the north side. Getting to cons is doable. It's fun when I'm ready for it. I grew up in the suburbs so I'm used to traffic.
Hey, was nice talking to you in the line for the John Rhys-Davies panel. Thanks for the Sliders recommendation, I've been binging it every night after the expo to decompress. Hope you had a good time!
So nice to meet you! Glad you’re enjoying it. You might want to quit when you get to the season 3 episode that’s right before Exodus part 1. It’s all downhill from here. 😉
That looked like a lot of fun. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. I love Indiana Jones and would love to see John Rhys-Davies in person. Ke Huy Quan would be cool too if he does events like that.
Michael, that looked amazing, great see everyone enjoying a show, I'm on vacation now, but i always have time to watch your videos, one day i will visit Canada...nerdmaste 😊, have a great weekend 👍✌️
The Edmonton Expo is next month. I didn’t go last year, because it is getting smaller, but more expensive. I’m might go this year to see if it has changed.
Agreed, Mike. I like referring to legendary actors, writers, creators and the like as "Mr. . . . " or "Mrs. . . . ", too (as Mr. Paulsen does ;) ). It feels more fitting and respectful and a callback to days gone by where people did that sort of thing as the norm.
It was early access on opening day. It filled up more later in the day, and then it was shoulder to shoulder on Sunday. Part 2 of the tour coming soon.
@@MichaelMercy I went Friday and I can confirm it was packed as heck. The MTCC's South Building (which is where the artists alley, exhibits, and a good chunk of the retail offerings were) was stuffed with people and it was kinda hard to get around without bumping into someone. Even the path that connects the North and South buildings got packed and they had signs on the walkways that told people not to stop to take pictures.

Great video. But this was just the North Building. The South Building is larger & where all the comics & artists are, & gaming section. As an artist & comic collector, the South Building is my favourite building. Awesome video nevertheless.
@@MichaelMercy Awesome - I can't wait...! I couldn't go this year, & I felt as if I was there watching this video. Thx for the upload. Waiting for the South Building video! Take care, friend.
Thanks for the walkthrough sir!!!
John Rhys-Davies is always a gentleman and a scholar.
A true paragon in his craft.
Thanks Hans! Great going through the South Building with you. Thanks for making the time to chat!
I love it when actors are interactive and jovial. What a great day. Thanks for sharing 🎉
And give the audience those delicious memberberries by saying their classic lines. Road Warrior pop every time. 😁

Haha I love fanexpo, a great time. That’s me in the scp heavy gear!!

It was a cool addition to my FanExpo bumping into you at the show dude!
Great to meet you!

John Rhys-Davies is an absolute legend! What an incredible person! Thank you for bringing us such great content!
Of course the year I don't go is the year that feels like everyone was there.I usually have a ton of fun at these shows.

Went on Friday and had quite a good time. Ended up with some really good art from the Artist Alley of a superhero character I created called Bluebird.
Fan expo is fun but it can get really crazy. It’s a wild experience
Yup, I'm told Thursday is the quietest of all the days so it's the one I'll try to stick with in the future.
Did you know Sylvester McCoy the actor who played Doctor who was in The Lord of the rings series by Peter Jackson.
I so wanted to go this year, great video we support you from Nova Scotia
Thank you fellow Canadians! 🇨🇦
Michael, that looked amazing, great see everyone enjoying a show, I'm on vacation now, but i always have time to watch your videos, one day i will visit Canada...nerdmaste 😊, have a great weekend 👍✌️
Thanks Paul! It was so much fun. Be sure to stop by a Toys R Us if you ever visit here. Have a great weekend!
23:06 that's me with my question. So glad the audience (and I hope John) had fun with it
John Rhys-Davies was also in Star Trek Voyager! Obvs my fave is from Indy and his voice for Treebeard.
Was there Thursday had a great time and found some fantastic four annuals for my run to complete along with some Thor.
Thanks!
Did the Calgary Fan Expo this year, good luck. Bring your own food and drink…..
Thanks!

I'm guessing you didn't make it to the south building which is a lot larger.
I got pretty tuckered out just sticking to the North Building. 😅
Awesome I love the Catwoman outfit she
looks gorgeous ❤
Wow there are no people here. I went when my son was small 2010's with 3 day passes and went everyday and it was packed EVERYWHERE

Did you go to the whole other side, the vendor side?
South building video will be up shortly.
