Alexis Cruz

IMDB Page

- 'Patrolman Enrique Gonzales'(voice) in L.A. Noire (video game)
- 'Martin Allende' in Shark
- 'Terry' in E.R.
- 'Skaara' in Stargate (film) & Stargate SG-1

Interesting fact - he and Erick Avari are the only people to appear in both the film AND the Stargate SG-1 Tv series. Cool, huh?

Alexis Cruz was pleased to see Isaac and I in our Stargate uniforms - so much so, he stood on his chair and waved to us over the crowds! I think Isaac was a little confused about who he was as he didn't recognise him - he's now a man with short hair instead of a boy with long hair and funny clothes - and it was a *little* bit awkward that he was selling his comic / graphic novel 'The Unprofessionals' on his stall - not suitable for children! Alexis signed it to us both though - it's not going to be that long before my big 8 year old can read it, after all - as well as the picture above. He was nice, but clearly more there for the promoting his comic than for signing for fans - which is fair enough really as Stargate was a veeery long time ago. So it was a bit of a strange meet - I sort of felt like I had to buy the comic, too...though obviously, buying comics isn't usually a problem for me ;) Of course, it might have been just me, and Isaac came away very happy to have met him, so that's the main thing!

Look how chuffed Isaac is - his face! Tony Amendola was pleased to see us from the minute we walked up to him in our Stargate SG-1 uniforms, and after chatting to my overexcited boy for a bit came out from behind his table for photographs and even asked his assistant to take the photo of the three of us so that I could be in one too. He admired our costumes and was just really nice and friendly. He was a joy to meet and Isaac was happy for weeks afterwards, thinking about it!

I'm officially in love with this man. I think he's possibly *the* nicest person I've ever met. I've already told my hubby that I want to marry this man instead. (He understood entirely).

While we were queueing, he was laughing and joking, and involving us queue-ers in the jokes - mostly about convention germs and people being ill - he had hand sanitiser with him but I know from the usual Expo's us con-goers get 'con-flu' - I'd never thought about the guests getting it before. I promised I was healthy as we shook hands...

Isaac 'told him off' for having drawn a small dinosaur on the table (Eureka co-star Niall Matter is currently filming / soon appearing in new dinosaur-featuring show Primeval:New World) and they chatted about that, I told him off for Eureka not being entirely suitable for Isaac as his character says crap too often - he then told his writer off, who was sat further along the table! - it was basically chaos but in a funny way, and Isaac loved it despite only ever seeing a few of the Christmas episodes. I told him that I'd got my mum hooked on it too and that she thinks he's lovely as well :D He and Niall both said to say hello to her - and 'keep up the good work'  He posed for the most delightful photo with me and *happy sigh* it was just all so, so nice.

Niall Matter

------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've only seen a couple of episodes of Eureka, haven't seen him in Warehouse 13 which I see every now & then, and Mummy didn't point him out in Atlantis but probably will on our next watch-through. I like Primeval though & so will watch this one when it comes to the UK. We didn't talk much but Mummy was a bit giggly.

I haven't seen her in anything yet but I like the UK version of Primeval so will watch it when it comes here. We talked about our favourite dinosaurs - and we bought agreed on stegosaurs.

Such a very sweet man, with a very, very big queue...mostly of extremely excited young girls. Nice long chat despite the queues, and I was most amused when I had to take another photo due to 'a silly face' in the first, and then, at his worried expression, had to explain to Andrew Lee Potts that is been referring to Isaac when I'd said that... He said that he *does * often have a silly face so he worried a bit... Bless him...what a Connor-ish thing to say!
