1 Answer

Answer :

tim burton i saw him at a comic con when i was 15 and went up to him to talk. he was a really cool dude in the beginning and i started telling him how i was a huge fan of his movies (batman , beetle juice, corpse bride, etc. but especially batman forever). he was like “oh, cool! that’s amazing”. some other guy came up and asked for a picture with him, so i let the guy get his picture and then continued talking to him. i asked for his autograph and he literally said “yeah, sure. $700 dollars and it’s yours.” i was taken aback by this, but i found it reasonable because he is insanely famous after all. so instead of a autograph, i then asked to take a picture with him. once again he said “alright, kid, the picture is yours for $100”. i did not have $100 dollars to get a damn picture with him and i even told him so. he literally said to me “no money, no picture. must suck.” i can say i went home pretty angry and hurt that day.
