I don't usually do this but tonight I MUST
So let's discuss ACE Comic Con and more importantly, Tom, Seb and Mackie's panel. And even more importantly, the last 10-15 minutes of it.
The link is here if you want to watch it to get the context. You really should.
Let's discuss THESE RUDE ASS PEOPLE RIGHT HERE.
WHAT ON EARTH makes them think they can treat actors that they call their idols like that? Who made them believe that those were jokes they were saying back there? These girls literally told Sebastian to "educate himself" when he asked who Tessa (Tom's dog) was. And what hurt the most was Sebastian's reaction to it, he had no idea she would snap at him like that and Kevin Smith tried to make it look a little less rude but he couldn't. It was rude. It was not the way you speak to a person, let alone someone you claim to admire. They kept throwing punches at Mackie and Sebastian (you seriously need to watch that, at least the last 15 minutes) and honestly I don't blame Tom Holland for not saying anything, he's a kid, a rising star and he doesn't have much experience for these kind of things but I'm sure he was just as shocked.
These girls told Anthony Mackie "they didn't care about him" and that he didn't know what the term "friends" was. And OH MY GOD I WILL LOVE MACKIE FOREVER because he responded with "I don't know friends, I know family." Mackie wasn't rude, he was getting back at her for being such a bitch. Yes, a bitch. Mackie and Sebastian were too shocked to say anything by the end of the "questions", because for starters, they made NO FUCKING QUESTIONS.
I was so glad when the girls were like "Oh we have one" and Mackie literally threw them out of the spotlight and asked the upcoming girl to ask her question.
What the fuck? I mean. Seriously. You are having the chance THOUSANDS OF US are dying for, I'm not even from the USA, I don't get to go to these things and there are a million things I would ask them before even THINKING of being rude. WHY would you be rude? These men are SITTING ON THEIR TIRED BUTTS TO LISTEN TO YOUR QUESTIONS AND ANSWER THEM AND TRY TO BE FRIENDLY AND YOU COME AND DISRESPECT THEM LIKE THIS? I have no words for this, I seriously cannot get over Sebastian and Mackie's faces by the end of it, I swear the image keeps repeating in my head. The panel was so fun until these bitches showed up. The guys were SO UPSET and uncomfortable, they didn't even try to hide it. When they tried to make up for it and said "I love you" to Mackie and Seb, they didn't even respond. Mackie was speechless and all Seb could manage was a really fake "Thank you" out of courtesy. Because he is better than them.
Mackie on the other hand, has a totally different personality and he snapped at them too, and I love him for that because he stood up and showed them that him being an actor doesn't mean he has to take that kind of crap.
To sum it up. LEARN SOME MANNERS. LOVE YOUR IDOLS AND RESPECT THEM.
They are human beings, they get tired and they work for you, they spend entire days at events like this JUST FOR YOU and they deserve all the respect in the world.
As for these girls. I really hope they NEVER get the chance to meet or talk to ANY celebrity again. They don't deserve it. Many of us are sitting here with our phones trying to get as many news about these cons because that's as good as it gets for us, and the fact that these type of people do things like those really makes me sad.
