Very very quick experience but he was friendly and gracious.

Came here to say this. Rad shirt. They foretold the times.
TylerTried2025-10-26 04:35
That's awesome!
Not as awesome as that cross buster shirt, but awesome!

for real, it’s nice to have those little pleasant encounters sometimes

Love the Bad Religion shirt!
Dharmapunk2062025-10-26 05:32
BR shirt is kickass!
Also that's rad!

what the use of posting with face hidden? emjoe met vision?
sentient_luggage2025-10-26 07:08
For one, I didn't get anyone's consent to post it. For two, the third guy in the photo isn't a public figure or celebrity. For three, I value my privacy, and the only value of reddit as a form of social media is anonymity.
This isn't Instagram, and nobody knows what an emjoe is.
Defiant_Wheel48882025-10-26 07:49
haa i get it brother. i agree thank your for explanation :)

“Got to” = “paid to”
sentient_luggage2025-10-26 07:15
I got to eat some farm fresh eggs today. I paid for that too. This is capitalism. We pay for everything. Even sleep isn't free. Do you have a good point out there somewhere?
People that weren't where I was when I was with a spare $100 didn't GET to do what I GOT to do today. Therefore, I got to sleep last night, I got to eat farm fresh eggs this morning. I got to get in a car and drive to the con, I got to walk around there, and i got to share a brief moment with someone whose work i appreciate.
I shared that moment with a community that usually likes to see their heroes interacting with fans.
You ever ride a roller coaster for free?
Was it free when you got to see Paul Bettany act in a movie?
Of course I paid for it. What did you pay for today? What did you get to do?
YodaWattsLee2025-10-26 06:35
You both look shocked.
LoFiTae2025-10-27 09:38
Pretty yellow in the face too. Wonder if they’re okay?
PayaV872025-10-26 07:46
Why are you not happy to meet him?
N0va0w2025-10-26 15:21
Nice. Don’t like the shirt though. 😕bet it was fun meeting Paul though.
Lasha_Japaridze2025-10-27 14:22
Such a harmless comment and people still downvote for caring for a worldview that shapes the whole meaning of your life. Sad tbh Edit: it's a band
Aromatic-Cupcake48022025-10-26 16:33
Why does he give off father energy. Like he’s taking a picture with his kids.
sentient_luggage2025-11-19 08:15
Because he's at least five inches taller than me, and I'm just south of 6'1".
Paul Bettany is a TALL MAN.
For reference, I'm the guy on the right in the photo.
Ccjfb2025-10-27 01:05
Confusing perspective on your muppet arms reaching awkwardly around Paul’s neck.
B_Wayne_88332025-10-27 06:10
I wish I had the money to justify these, but the one photo I did pay for at NYCC (Hayden Christensen a few years back) it was like 250$, and the interaction lasted probably 15-20 seconds lol.
sentient_luggage2025-10-27 06:30
Yep. Almost too fast (I'm getting roasted in another post for not knowing what to do with my arms and that's why she looks uncomfortable) to know what you're doing. It's lightning quick.
Still, you get a nice souvenir.
B_Wayne_88332025-10-27 06:59
Yeah I still got my picture framed, it's just as soon as it's over I'm like... damn that was a lot of freaking money lmao. Same with an autograph. Hundreds of dollars for a 15 second greeting and a pen scribble. But if you enjoyed it, that's what matters 👏🏻
sentient_luggage2025-10-27 07:22
This was my first experience with all this. I had a tremendous weekend. Will I repeat it?
I mean, maybe. This was a thrill but it's not my thrill. It was exhausting but worth it, and I found delights in places I didn't expect. The adrenaline you get from meeting an A List celeb is kinda special, but I don't need that. We met a LOT (Okay, we met some) people that do.
We met a couple that had already changed costumes (in their car in the parking lot) 6 times that day. We talked while she spent SEVEN MINUTES tracking down a picture of her Chun Li cosplay.
It was sick. Totally on point. Shit, I don't even remember who the celeb was in the photo. But still, it's what they do. It's their hobby. Good for them.
I'm chuffed I could do it once, and that I could gift it to someone.
Having said all that: YOU GOT HAYDEN'S AUTOGRAPH.
He's not my Darth Vader. HE'S DARTH VADER.
dorafatehi2025-10-27 06:41
He looks pretty human-like, for being a robot
sentient_luggage2025-10-27 07:15
Yeah but
Someone mentioned my Muppet arm looping over his shoulder, and now i don't look human like.
dorafatehi2025-10-27 07:20
I'd take having a muppet arm over being a piece of luggage any day
sentient_luggage2025-10-27 07:34
And I'd rather this response not be necessary at all, but here we are.
B_Wayne_88332025-10-27 13:33
Yeah he signed 2 things for me (I paid for one autograph but waited with my wife in line for 6 hours, so he signed a photo for her aswell). Very nice guy, and I have both autographs framed on my wall, it was just so much money 🤣
