"Nice." -

 

[Mr Nick]

Ah, we've been doing that kinda thing for ages here.

Heh heh.

 

[CAH]

Can anyone tell me if this has started yet or not?

If so, PLEASE...PLEASE let me give you some questions for MSJ (if it's not already over) because I don't have the 123 Flash thing you need for it...and I have Dial Up...so I won't be able to download it in time.

CAH

 

[SonOfTheDark]

I downloaded it but it doesn't work for me...

I just have a white screen after loading

 

[CAH]

So do I...

...I actually don't think that it has started yet...but we'll see. I hope it hasn't!

CAH

 

[Bat Brain]

If it was on at 3.30 then it's long over. It's 9pm here now. I totally forgot about it myself.

Man...that sucks.

Oh well, I guess at least we can talk to MSJ on here...if only he was on more.

[zer00]

"MSJ says to (15:42):
I love SHH. They're who I am making the movie for. I am one of them and I want to include them and all the comic geeks to go on this ride with me. "

Thanks again MSJ!

 

[RED_Rider]

I was late and was too excited and asked some stupid questions. I wanted to know much more about Preacher but hey, I had a chat with MSJ!

 

[The Ones]

Awesome! Thanks for posting the transcript.

Does the other convo (with Hewitt and OHara) have any mention of Ghost Rider? If so, can you please send me the other transcript?

Thanks very much.
~MM

There is some interesting stuff concerning them and Ghost Rider and how they feel, but its mostly talk about films and likes and dislikes

Awesome! Thanks for posting this. I tried to make the chat myself but the freakin' page wouldn't load. It kept trying to connect with the server and wouldn't do so.

Ah well, thanks again for sharin'!

 

[FlameHead]

By the way, SHH should have a heads up about this Ones... Front page material and all. More promo for the movie...

 

[FlameHead]

Wow. Listen to this...

MSJ says to (15:51):
I wanted a scene where GR lassoes a police helicopter and there's a tug of war. I paid for half of the scene myself because I wanted it so bad. Wife is not happy.

Now that's awesome. Not the wife thing but, the payin' for half of it himself. Further proof (as if we needed it) that this man was/is dedicated.

 

[FlameHead]

Anybody out there? This conversation is awesome. I'm just reading the transcript now and badly wishin' I was there. Damnit.

One of the funnist things I've read in a while...

MSJ says to (16:01):
Fox is just a building. I have nothing against the building.

 

[CAH]

Yeah FH...MSJ is the man, no doubt about it. He says such nice things about us...definately front page material BTW.

MSJ is such an idol of mine because he takes the time out of his very busy schedule to come and talk to us for one thing, and he talks about us positively when he's not on here. He's THE fan's fan, and without him, GR wouldn't be half as good as I'm positive that it will be.

I just hope that someday (I know I keep saying this, but I can't help it!) I can get the chance to meet MSJ...and talk for a long time, and become friends (well, that we already are) and maybe even make a film together.

Keep Rockin' On MSJ!

CAH

 

[The Ones]

Probably wont interest anyone, heres the Chris Hewitt and Helen o'hara discussion:

And MSJ is possibly the greatest human living here, on this particular planet, right now.

 

[matrix_ghost]

LOved that transcript.

You know i do sincerely hope that Ghost Rider DOES get at least a nomination for the VFX Oscar.
Seriously i think that the work they did on GR is definately new and hopefully it won't be pushed aside by the bigger movies such as SPiderman 3 , POTC 3 etc.

And i'm really looking forward to the PReacher series.'C'mon HBO , make it happen t:

 

[InVictus]

Yup, awesome interview! Too bad i'm in full university exam session...=_=

 

[badash55]

"Q: Would you ever fight your critics like the recent Uwe Boll boxing match?

MSJ: I'd fight Uwe Boll, actually"

That part alone made the transcript worth reading.
