not quite so adorable as Kevin though. He's more homeless-chic adorable.
I swear...one of these days I will have something fucking brilliant to say.
one day....
: 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.
