That is soooo funky cool!

Wait, You sorta of said. :)

I just wonder if Disney ready for what it's going to see there. Are there any mundanes in the world more freakable than Disney execs?

Considering it took the sale (to minors) of lolicon, copyright-violating H-dojin to piss them off when AX was on their turf, I'd say they're not as bad as all that.

That is cool. Legitimacy at last!

I do hope it's one of those, "look at the bustling and creative community this show as led to" pieces and not one of those "look at the freaky people with purple hair" kind of pieces. Probably the first, since it's going on the DVD which will be purchased mostly by the fans themselves.

But--neat! Thanks for posting it here.

When? When? Wheeeeeen?!

I need that DVD!

Does this mean they might, I dunno, bring back Gargoyles in some form?

(why does the phrase "Gargoyle Babies" make me want to hide in a closet?)

Greg must be shepping.
I'm thrilled about the DVD but also leery about the live Garg fan footage. Fandom doesn't always present well on film. (or isn't presented well...)
But YAY! DVD!

Well, I'm certainly not going, but wow, that sounds cool!

*want Gargoyles*

Montreal, eh?

I might just have to show up to that!
Of course, I'm more of a casual fan, but still, Gargoyles rocked, and rocked hard.

Can't spell "fandom" without "and"

I would only attend a Gargoyles convention is if one of several things happeneed, preferably all at the same time.

1> A huge sum of money came into my posession.

2> Those whom were responsible for my leaving the fandom all died in a horrible firey explosion that was visible from space.

3> My ex-girlfriend who was part of this fandom took me back.

4> The Dreamer Clan would reunite and schedule meets on a semi-monthly basis.

(chances that any of those will be happening: non-existent)
