Very nice, cooey. Read this earlier and really enjoyed your article. Would have been cool if they pointed you out to ask a question. Was actually wondering that. If they did, what would you have asked?

Still, some cool things. I also heard earlier today about the possible Running Man 2 & Conan. Very nice to see Arnie going back to old things like Ford did with Indy & Star Wars. Yes they are old dogs but if they still have what it takes, bring it on!

Did he watch Die Hard? Seriously? I'm sure he thought, "What a schmuck".

@denizen I did have a question lined up. Nothing too exciting - "How did it feel to leave politics to step back into acting again?" Would've been nice to hear how he felt... nervous... anxious, etc?

 

[denizen]

Good question, mate. Pity you never got the chance.

 

[cooey]

To be fair in that room mate everyone who was picked (literally about 5 people out of 1100) were very very lucky

Well i guess simply being there with Arnie must have been awesome. You basically experienced what most of us will never sadly.

Thanks again for the awesome article!

@cooey - a once in a lifetime opportunity - one to tell the grandchildren about great article too

those prices were eye gouging. I'd happily pay $1000 for an autograph & a professional photo, even up to $1500. But £1500! That's quite the price tag. Still jealous that you were able to attend an event like this. Maybe now he'll start doing a few more personal appearances. I'd fly anywhere in the United States to meet him.

After attending a few Q&A sessions, I've come to realize that there will always be at least a person that will ask them dumbest things. At a Linda Hamilton & Michael Biehn Q&A I attended, some guy asked Linda if she liked Brandon Lee movies. Linda, Michael & everyone in the audience was just like "WTF?"

Yes I'd stand in line to meet Arnie and grab a few autographs!

Congrats @cooey for such a WOW evening!
Those price are just crazy! Getting up-close and personnal for £2000... seriously? No... just no... just being in the room, and seeing him that close would be enought for me!

Nice article!
