Anime Weekend Atlanta

[Ishn]

Are any of you planning to go to this? Apparently it's a pretty big anime convention in the Southeast.

I wish, all the cons I go to and AWA and Anime Boston continue to escape my grasp

 

[Ishn]

Well, I will be there, so if anyone is going to go post it and we'll see if we can hook up and say hi... not that most of you know me, nor I you... but what the hell.

AWA is commonly known as the AMV con. It's famed for its AMV contest.

I'll be picking up my press pass. If a friend comes through, it'll be as SPD B-Squad Cadet Bridge Carsons, if not, Dr. Tommy Oliver.

Looking forward to the pictures, m'man. :thumbs:

So far, this is one con that is relatively close to me. When is this thing??

I have no idea what either of those costumes would look like...

Looking forward to the pictures, m'man.

I should pick up a disposable camera for this thing. Or finally get a digicam.

So far, this is one con that is relatively close to me. When is this thing??

This weekend. Friday (23rd) thru Sunday (25th).

Bridge Carson- SPD Green Ranger, not gonna be his uniform though, just the SPD t-shirt. Probably Saturday.

Dr. Tommy Oliver- Greatest Ranger ever. If you see a guy in a brown shirt with a black undershirt walking around wearing a BrachioMorpher, that's me.

The convention totally sucked - the vendors didn't have anything good and there weren't many good events planned. I was sorely disappointed by the lack of a general dealer selling anime. There were two or three specialty booths, selling on their shows on DVD, and the obligatory Hentai, Yaoi, and Yuri (I think that's the lesbian porn) booths, but no booth that just sold anime. There were also three booths with swords, but none that really appealed to me, and all were unedged - not just dull, but without an edge at all.
