Con X Movie Convention‏

Con X is quickly becoming known as the largest and most eclectic movie convention in the midwest!
From the Press Release
Con X 2012 movie convention takes place at the Ramada Conference Center and boasts film icons, TV stars, filmmakers, artists, authors, and musicians who have not only entertained us over the years, but have served our country and earned Olympic Gold Medals.  Walter "Chekov" Koenig ("Star Trek") and Margot "Lois Lane" Kidder ("Superman") headline the event along with cast reunions for "Paranormal Activity," "Stargate SG-1" and "Amityville Horror."  80's movie fans will delight in meeting "Back to the Future" and "Top Gun" actor, James Tolkan and "Police Academy's" Leslie Easterbrook.  Kansas City native and dancer, Sandahl Bergman ("Conan the Barbarian" and "All That Jazz") also makes a return to her hometown.  If movies like "Pet Sematary," "Shawshank Redemption," "Halloween," "Steel Magnolias" and "Sin City" had you lining up at the theatre box office, you won't want to miss the Con X full line up of stars. (Complete list on their website at www.conXkc.com)
Fans of all genres will get a complete "celebrity" experience with a weekend full of options:  a chance to meet the celebrities, get autographs and pictures and a lucky few will even get to know their favorite celebrity one on one at an intimate dinner in the hotel's Fireside Room.  Cocktail party and concerts benefiting the Wounded Warrior Project... "Taking of Savannah" red carpet premiere... a film festival... shopping in the ballroom... Q&A's with the celebs... these are just a few of the things that will make this a weekend convention-goers won't soon forget.
Tickets for the weekend conventions are available online now.  Those showing a military ID at the door will get 50% off, while children 12 and under are free.  A limited amount of VIP passes and Celebrity Dinner tickets are available online while supplies last.  Vendor spots, sponsorship packages and discounted rooms at the Ramada Conference Center are still available.  More information can be found on the Con X website at www.conXkc.com.  Check the website and their Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/conXkc for updates and a complete list of celebrity guests, events and vendors.
