One thing I forgot to mention about Fan Expo. Ben Affleck was there and apparently was a total cranky ass during the photo sessions, which pissed off a fair amount of people, especially considering how much they were charging.

The best part about this though was there was this guy who had a booth who had run off to get a picture with Affleck and was at his booth boasting “I almost got him to smile!”

See the guy in question had with him this…friend. A friend he had crafted out of a pair of wooden boards and a Styrofoam sphere for a head which he called Stickman. When he met Ben Affleck he put one of those really cheap Superman costumes on it. You You know the ones with the fake abs? He gets to the booth and Ben Affleck goes

“What is that? ”

And the guy proudly introduces Super Stickman.

And Ben Affleck kind of goes

“…..Can I hold him?”

So of course the guy lets him hold Super Stickman for the picture and sure enough, he almost has a smile in the photo.
