I'm so upset I didn't see you there. I was with the mob across the street. I'm a firm believer that all celebrities can sign at premieres, regardless of whether or not they are in or even affiliated with the motion picture. Not that your autograph's that rare or anything, but come on, make your presence known!
Were you in the Village or Bruin?
Weren't you only a slight Lord of the Rings fan before, Kevin? Did this movie change all of that or have they grown on you?
There was so many celebrities there, Robin Williams, Rob Schneider AND (AND!) David Hasselhoff?!? Night of dreams.

: I was checking my email on AOL (yes - I'm still an AOL man), and on the welcome screen,
: there's this link that says "Get a front seat on the red carpet! The 'Return of the King' stars
: took AOL's cameras to snap their own pix at the L.A. premiere exclusively for AOL
: members."

: So I click on the link to check out the pics Liv took, which are nestled amidst the snaps
: taken by Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom, Sean Astin, and Peter Jackson. But what do I find in
: the middle of Peter Jackson's portfolio? A picture of me and Mewes, captioned "Jackson
: spots fellow director Kevin Smith and Jay Mewes (of 'Jay and Silent Bob' fame) outside the
: theater."

: I mean... wow. Why the fuck would that guy take my picture? Especially when he was
: getting mobbed by fans and press? That's so random, and oddly flattering.

: However, calling me his "fellow director"... I mean, c'mon. Let's face it: the man makes
: visionary epics. I just fart around.

: Still in all, it was kinda cool.

: And for the curious: the battle outside (and inside) of Minas Tirith is unreal. It's nothing
: short of amazing.

: But more impressive than that is a small, quiet moment shared between Sam and Frodo
: toward the end of the movie. It's just a set of shared, knowing glances, but it's pretty
: powerful, and really touching.

: Ten bucks says "Return of the King" wins Best Picture this year.
