: After fellowship came out you said that you just didn't care about anything having to do
with Hobbits or the Middle Earth - now you think Return of the king should win an oscar.
No - I didn't say it SHOULD win the Oscar. I bet it WOULD win the Oscar. Big difference.
I think "Kill Bill" SHOULD win the Oscar.
But I'm betting "King" WILL win.
:Is it because you got to go to the premiere?
Yeah - that's it.
: I guess the movies have gotten much better and all, the first one was not that good, but to
say that you just couldn't get into another fantasy universe then to change your tune like
that,,, weird.
Actually, I didn't change my tune. I had little interest in seeing "Fellowship". I only saw it
because the Academy sent me a screener DVD. I didn't see "The Two Towers" in a theater
either (that was another Academy screener viewing). "Return of the King" is the first one I've
actually gone out to see.
But I still don't give a shit about Hobbits, really. The movie's impressive to behold, but
ultimately, I'm not very into the subject matter. Doesn't mean I still can't appreciate the
craftsmanship and final product, much in the way, I'm sure, my parents viewed the "Star
Wars" movies; my father could give a fuck about a Wookie, but he appreciated the movie for
what it was just the same.
: You are a weird man K Smith
Not really. You just misunderstood me is all.
: but it is good to see that the little things can still you excited, that makes me happy too.
Thank Christ.
: The last couple of flame jobs you laid on that asshole fan left a bitter taste in my mouth.
You making fun of him because he hasn't accomplished anything - like saying that he works
fast food or whatever -- it is like if I work a minumum wage job that I am somehow less
important than you.
Not if you don't attack me for doing something you'd obviously like to be doing yourself, as
that guy did. Nothing wrong with a min.wage gig. It's when that's all you're ever gonna do,
and yet you've got the balls to attack someone else who strived to do more than the
min.wage gig and succeeded- that's when you're less of a person.
: i am glad that you left your ivory tower for long enough to enjoy seeing your pic online. ya

Press whore I'll cop to. Ivory Tower? Fuck, dude - you've just got zero clue about my life.
