Title: PTA is coming to my town!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Ernie on June 14, 2003, 03:46:45 PM
Oh my god, I am in heaven right now...just picked up the living section of the paper, top left corner IMMEDIATELY caught my eye...a pic of Adam Sandler in the beautiful blue suit. I read the short blurb under it faster than I've ever read anything in my life and find out the best news I've heard in probably all my teen years! The George Eastman House, a very famous theatre many of you have probably heard of, JUST added a screening of PDL with an appearance by god himself to their June schedule!!!! It's going to be on June 30th! God, what perfection! Right at the beginning of summer, I hope this is an omen for the best summer ever! Seriously, this is a dream. I never thought he would come here, the only cool famous person I've ever met here is PSH. This is really amazing. I have no idea what I'm going to have him sign, cause I won't leave without meeting him...I swear to god. I have 3 posters, by then I'll have all 4 dvd's, I have the PDL script, I don't even know what to do, I can't even think. I am going to totally freak out if he actually ends up coming. I hope nothing gets in the way. I don't see what could, I mean the dvd is finished...he probably doesn't really have too many other screening to attend at this point, right? He's done all the marketing, everything is all set, if he is working on his next movie at all it's probably just the script...so all he's gotta do is stay fucking healthy. God, I hope this really happens...it would be amazing!!!!

Anyway, I just had to tell somebody so I came here...I just freaked out. Is there any advice people who have met him or seen him in person can give me? Is he a nice guy? Cause of course I'm going to try to meet him. It was pretty easy to meet PSH and that was a similar thing so I'm going to get my nerve up. He acts kinda wierd on some of the things I've see him in or when I read some of his interviews but in a cool way! I'd love to hear what he acts like just so I'm prepared a little bit.

Lol, I knew at least one of you would be bitter...don't blame you AT ALL Cecil...I would have felt the exact same way. Why don't you come down and check it out!? It's a great theatre. We'll hang out.

I do feel like a little prick now though, seriously. Cecil has probably been a fan of him much longer than I have. I really do think he's the best though...him and Scorsese...PTA being the best young filmmaker. But yeah, I guess this is a little more than I deserve. I did have a kinda rough year in school though. And Cecil gets to hang out with pissed off girls! So I don't feel bad anymore. I got into him when I was 15, I couldn't really be expected to be interested in him at a younger age, right?

Good for you Jack!

Seriously, it'll certainly be very cool, now, you probably already thought of this but you must ask him if he's working on something right now, or how sooner he plans to do so.

This could apply to him now:

Anyone else just read the thread title and see the author and slightly laugh or smile? I did.

I am happy for you ebes; you are by far the most enegetic PTA fan I know. I bet he knows your name from slyly reading this board every now and then so you should wear a shirt saying, "EBEAMAN WANTS YOU" and just run up to PTA wearing the biggest grin you can give. It will be scary and beautiful at the same time. I'm not trying to be mean here because I think its great and am happy for you. A lot of people here seem to be wearing a cool persona on their shoulder and not really fully opening up. When I see you talking ebes, I know you are really saying it with all your convinction. More people are like you, but afraid to show it.

Totally...!  :-D

And I am officially a massively jealous fanboy right now... Although I always end up making an ass out of myself when I meet people I admire, just come accross as an annoying, normal fan - which, of course, I am: it's just that it feels much deeper than that, doesn't it...? Like, "you totally understand me, man: we are going to just have an immediate connection - it'll be a beautiful thing..." And then you're in front of them and you just start saying "You're just... sooooooo cool...".

But I'm sure it won't be like that for you, Ebes...! I can't think of anyone in the world I'd rather meet right now (except for maybe an incarnate version of the abstracted ideal girl of my dreams I have in my head, but - her aside - PTA's number one...!)

You lucky, lucky bastard...

PTA was supposed to come to Denver for a PDL screening as part of the Denver intl film festival, and he bailed close to the last minute.  Since I was too late in getting tics (they sold *quick*), I asked a friend of mine who was going to see if anyone had a spare available-- and I was willing to pay near triple the amount.  To my fortune, no one had a spare, and it turned out PTA wasnt showing anyway.  PDL played the next weekend, and I felt relieved.  Still though -- why drop your Denver friends, eh P?

Well, thank you guys for not being too jealous...you reacted a lot better than I thought you would. And no, I do not take any offense at all to anything you said GT, or anything anybody said...I know what you all mean. I realize I'm not the smartest or most mature person here and I don't try to be. I know I am like that. Those are not my goals either. I'm happy to be learning and developing my taste, I don't even want to be an expert yet. I thank god I found this site, I would never have discovered a lot of my favorite filmmakers. I'm glad to be the most energetic PTA fan you know too GT, that made me feel good. I'm also glad you see the sincerity in all my posts and everything I say, thanks for not labeling me with the overemotional teen stereotype as many often do just because of the passion I have. It is all really true and sincere as I said.

But then again.  If I was PTA i'd be a little scared to see obsessive fans bitch at each other and host home film festivals....might be a tad bit obsessive like for my taste....

Oh cool man, I was wondering if you were still coming here...hadn't seen you too much lately. And yeah, I've been trying to think of some questions...I'll let you know if I think of any really worthwhile, cause I'm not going to ask him anything, I'm pussing out. I'll definitely meet him and have him sign something and all that but no questions. I didn't really know there was going to be a Q and A, that's awesome.

By the way, I wanted to ask you...what's going on with that Young Filmmaker's Festival, is it still going on or what? I hadn't seen it advertised or anything? Oh, and how's your short coming along? Hope it's going well.

And just to everybody, I don't think I can handle representing xixax. That's too big for me. I think I'll listen to P for once. I'd love to at least mention it to him but I'll be way too shy and starstruck to do something like that. Hasn't Greg told him about it yet? I think him and Xixax himself are the ones that really have the right to talk to the man himself as it is their work, right?

You should have him make a Xixax.com commercial. Maybe something like "Hi, I'm Paul Thomas Anderson and you are watching xixax.com".

Anyway you have to say: "I'm such a great admire of your work! Boogie Nights really spoke to me on a personal level."

Lol, if I do say anything...I'm just going to be myself. I was thinking about how I should learn some big words and think of some big metaphors so I can talk to him and stuff but thinking about it now...he's not really that type of guy...at least it seems. I'm not saying he's shallow, he's just seemingly a really cool, non-intellectual guy that loves film and would love any fan, even if they're kinda dumb and love his movies for different reasons.

I don't want to say something specific at all either...cause I love all of his movies so much. I don't want to praise any one of his movies. I'd have to say something really broad and general to cover it all.

I love seeing famous people I admire in person.

But I hate meeting them. Especially if I have to speak.

This is why I'm half-glad PTA is not coming anywhere near my town. As far as I know. Living in the same town as Todd Haynes and Gus van Sant for so many years was quite enough to give me an ulcer, thank you.

I'm definitely the same way. I hated meeting PSH cause I knew I had to do it but I really didn't want to. All I could think about was how guilty I would feel if I didn't...I wouldn't be able to sleep. So, I'm nervous as ever that I'm going to have to go through the whole thing now with PTA. Seriously, I'm taking a break on meeting people for about 10 years after this. God forbid Zooey Deschanel or Audrey Tautou ever come here...I hope that I never find out if they do. I want to be more respectable when I meet them.

The doors actually open at 7:15 by the way, you might wanna get there as early as you can. This things probably going to fill up fast. It doesn't actually start till 8:00 but I don't really mind waiting. It's a great theater.

Nah, used to be skinny as can be...but I'm pretty fat now and paler than ever. I don't know, the girls don't really salivate over that type of stuff like you would expect them to. I mean, I'm not like obese or anything...and I'm no paler than Julianne Moore or PSH...I hope...but you know, I don't look any good. And yea, actually I guess my hair is a little wavy, yea...when it gets a little long. Your prediction may have been pretty damn accurate.

God, this is going to be horrible. Seriously, don't try and find me, I'm going to hide. I wish I could be invisible for the night. I've never met anybody I've talked to on the internet. Your going to hate me. If anybody approaches me, I'm going to pretend not to know what your talking about. Seriously, I'm really starting to get nervous about this.

Hey, and if worse comes to worst, wear a Nixon mask, and no one will suspect a thing.  Or better yet, a stocking, like Jay's dad, Franklin.  "Yeah, now let's rob that bank!"

Ditto.  And don't worry eebs.  We lub j00!  And always remember what Gene Hackman said as Lex Luthor in 1978's Superman:
QuoteWe all have our faults!  Mine's in California!
Hey, and if worse comes to worst, wear a Nixon mask, and no one will suspect a thing.  Or better yet, a stocking, like Jay's dad, Franklin.  "Yeah, now let's rob that bank!"

EDIT: A unicorn is a rarity, something sought after, sorta like Bigfoot or Nessie.  :)

Oh oh, ok...I see.

Shoot me now.

God, this is going to be horrible. Seriously, don't try and find me, I'm going to hide. I wish I could be invisible for the night. I've never met anybody I've talked to on the internet. Your going to hate me. If anybody approaches me, I'm going to pretend not to know what your talking about. Seriously, I'm really starting to get nervous about this.

Oh yeah, I definitely am more nervous about him....I'm not so nervous about the board members going now that I look at it, they're mostly relatively new to the board. If it were P, Duck Sauce, Cecil, Macguffin, or anybody like that going, I would literally hand back my ticket or sell it.

Why? I like you ebeaman, we'd get along. It is one thing being rude to internet screen names, but different to a person in front of you. You would really let that stop you from meeting PTA

What'd I do? I'm with Duck. I kid here, but in person, I think it would be a different story.


And I don't think it would be too hard to point ebeaman out from the crowd - he'll be the one wearing a t-shirt with Audrey Tautou on the front.

haha, i can see what cecil finds funny.

i would like to go to a screening full of past and present board-douches like cecil and duck sauce and ...-', not sober tho. i'm sure at least one of u wouldn't be half as annoying in real life. one would hope. and the rest, well a drunken brawl never hurt anyone.

Yea, I'm always saying that I would convulse or faint or something like that if I met her but really, I would probably just freak her out and look really bad...so it's fine.

Well that's cool of you guys to say, thanks to everyone, I am glad to know all of this now. Who knows, maybe one day we will meet up. It's looking like this site is getting bigger and better all the time. I just wanted to clarify that I am nerdy and I guess I just figured you guys wouldn't really want to hang out with a "dorky 16 year old" in person as P said at one time. I hope I'm not as annoying person like he said, lol...I love it.

Man... now I especially want to go.   I just want to heckle Ebes...

Ebeaman is gonna have nightmares about trying to ask PT a question, but everytime he tries to speak some frat-guy dick in the back blows an air-horn or yells "DORK!".... oh, and the dream ends with him trying to get an autograph from Paul, but getting pantsed by P instead.

Oh shit, now I wish I could go to Ebe's dream.

Actually RK, it's weird...I have had GREAT dreams the last couple nights. Last night I dreamt that I met Spike Lee and he was really cool, the night before that I dreamt that I got this girl, this senior girl that just graduated and I'll never see her again, she was from my film study class...I briefly mentioned her in one of my posts at the scorsese project help thread...yea, I dreamt that I got her number and all this...I was acting so incredibly cool in the dream, it was fucking awesome. It's kinda funny looking back on it now. I was all like "So, let me...uh, you know...get your number...k?" It's completely ridiculous how cool I was acting. I have no idea where my head was at dreaming so nicely the past couple nights.

Anyway, maybe I'm just being led into a false sense of security and happiness for a big embarassing, horrible moment at the PTA screening. That's what I keep thinking is the case. I'm just thinking of all these worse case scenarios that are not unlike the ones you described, lol. They all involve somebody showing up from the boards.

One last thing, that "somebody's prank" thing that tremosloth said about me, that's funnier than I thought it was. That's gotta be one of the funniest insulting things I've ever heard somebody say about me, lol...seriously, that's genius. I just had to thank you for that, I think it's great.

That's one thing that I don't really get either...how the hell do people just know that they see somebody from the boards? As I already said, I'd just like to be in and out with noticing. I'm not ready to meet any xixax members.

You know, I'm thinking we'll probably be two of the only younger people there. Very very few people under 20 have been there in the past times I have gone.

but since you guys wont do that, why dont you all meet somewhere first, then all go to the theatre together.

tell us how it smells guys!

Wait, why am I used as an example? And why in the hell would anyone want to pretend to be me?

If that happens, just ask the intruder what date a specific DVD is released and watch him sweat thinking of an answer.

perhaps ill just watch the movie quietly, meet PTA (that's all I'm going for), and then drive back home (bout four hours back to were i live, and i have to work in the morning).

or i could just wear an IM FROM XIXAX t-shirt and you could try to guess whcich member i was in ur mind.

or we could meet politely, chat, enjoy, and then spew out everything right here on xixax

i could immediately spot the impostor because i never put '...' before a question mark!  if i was there i would probably ask a certain member here if he cared for a challenge, upon the response of 'yes' i would punch him in the face and run away
