Premiere

Okay folks, you're not going to believe how this just keeps rolling (and I'll get to your post in a sec TP. You should probably actually post that in the reviews...). I just finished my interview with CBC. It was pretty awesome. They got shots of me pretending to pack, sitting in front of my GR collection and even messin' around on the hype (great free promotion for this place too eh?). Fun stuff. It'll air tonight. I'm gonna try to record it.

THEN, when I came down to check my email and stuff, I got an message from the producer at ET Canada, telling me to call her... so I did. They want to do an interview with me in New York, both at the Hotel and at the Red Carpet. What's really the best part though is that they said they weren't even going to go to the premiere (the film not having any Canadian Content and all) but now are because of this story.

This is now Canada wide promotion. Holy crap.
 
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! PROMOTION MACHINE!!!

Ok. So ... if you meet Eva Mendes ... oh never mind.
 
You totally should have!

Anyway, I'll be back in a while. I gotta go get some American Money.

I'm starting to freak out a little...
 
Okay ... so I will ask. Vartha can stop laughing ... :)

FH ... if you meet Eva ... can you get an autograph for me? Thanks brother. If not I understand.

If sony was smart(and they are for making Ghost Rider) They should really be playing up this angle. Feel good stories always peak public interest no matter the subject.:yay:

Guys, I'll see what I can do about autographs, but I don't want to be one of those crazed people lookin' for em so... either way, I'll try.
 
Just don't laugh when you see it. We're embarrassed enough with it.

Nah, it's not as colorful as ours but, it's all the same. Just pieces of paper which is used to measure success in this world of ours. The ones I have are so crisp and pretty though.

Yeah totally, this is all positive promotion, which is the best kind of promotion. I mean, I know of several people here who have said that they're now going to check it out this weekend, so...
 
After tonight for a slight fee my left nipple will be available for private viewing and signage.

Any star notes? There is collectability with Choice Uncirculated Star Note bills.
 
I have no idea what a star note is, unfortunately...

So... I stepped out of the room for 10 minutes during the news and missed the freakin' piece they did on me and the trip. Sheesh. I can't believe that just happened. A friend called and tells me that it was a feature piece too, longer than most, I mean. He said they started with a build up of the movie and then turned to the trip.

Damnit.
 
I can not believe how much extra press this movie is getting just by the director inviting 3 fans from a message board. I wonder if this is the start of something at least for Sony
 
GR tries to use the Penance stare on Blackheart,but Blackheart tells GR that he doesn't have a soul,but once Johhny gets the scroll from Carter Slade & they both transform into Ghostriders &ride to San Venganza to free Roxanne from Blackheart GR reverts to JB because the sun is coming up & he must get Blackheart into the shadows, JB is the thrown into the mission doors he crashes to the floor Roxanne shoots Blackheart,JB tells Roxanne to throw him the gun,she tells him its out of bullets but tosses him the gun the tranforms into GR's gun which shoots Hellfire GR gives Blackheart the scroll @ San Venganza & all the souls enter his body GR uses the Penance stare & Blackheart is disposed of, then Mephisto enters & tells JB that he can now have his life back, JB says that he will keep GR.

Dude, take a breath. Thats got to be the longest sentence ever.
It was a fun film in the end wasn't it. Our group were the last people out of the cinema and I saw you with your family but I didn't think you'd remember me, so I didn't say hello.
Next time you watch GR TP keep an eye out for me. I'm the guy in the blue jacket and cap walking pass Eva as she is leaving the stadium. Then look for me screaming like an idiot after Nic completes his helicopter jump and just before he rides off. I'm the dude right next to Nic's head.
 
Just got home from watching GR in Melbourne with about 70 people including some film critics, it'll be interesting to see what the have to say in the morning papers.
You can only fit so much in two hours. Where do I start
Let me say that the transformation from JB to GR has to be seen to be believed(awsome). Watch the shadow in the tent when Mephisto enters the tent (see the real Mephisto just a glimpse).
The scene where JB is arrested & thrown in the lockup & his transformation while the detainees are fighting him is Great.
Watching the life getting drained out of people is awesome & to see Abigor get his on the rooftop after saying you cant catch the wind,GR then uses the chain to whip up a frenzy is great.
To watch Wallow expode in the water after he dismounts JB from his bike, then JB transforms into GR underwater & literally explodes Wallow ,Fantastic.
GR tries to use the Penance stare on Blackheart,but Blackheart tells GR that he doesn't have a soul,but once Johhny gets the scroll from Carter Slade & they both transform into Ghostriders &ride to San Venganza to free Roxanne from Blackheart GR reverts to JB because the sun is coming up & he must get Blackheart into the shadows, JB is the thrown into the mission doors he crashes to the floor Roxanne shoots Blackheart,JB tells Roxanne to throw him the gun,she tells him its out of bullets but tosses him the gun the tranforms into GR's gun which shoots Hellfire GR gives Blackheart the scroll @ San Venganza & all the souls enter his body GR uses the Penance stare & Blackheart is disposed of, then Mephisto enters & tells JB that he can now have his life back, JB says that he will keep GR.
Well in short thats what happens, some of the scenes may be a bit ut of order,my mind is still trying to comprehend all the info together so that I can write all this for you guys. But in short go & see it. Yes JB kisses Roxanne, then in another scene Roxanne kisses JB, Roxanne has a great pair of assets.
I don't know if the critics will like the film but then thats why they are critics and if films were made for the critics we probably wouldnt like them.
MSJ has stayed true to the GR comics & thats what I was looking for. Entertaining & some lighthearted moments . Great effects my hat goes off to for the effects people, Oscar nominations I think.

Nice one, TP. That'll do fer me.

:up:

Wow.

Don't forget to mention that you're an actor and available for work.

:cwink:

Do you think it's on line or that maybe they'd send you a copy?
 
Actually, I just found out that it is indeed online. CBC puts their entire show online everyday. I had no idea...

Anyway, I feel really strange about posting this folks. I'm a huge dork first of all. Though, you guys probably all expected that. LoL. I'm way to excited for my own good. Plus, now you're gonna know me even more. That's scary.

Also, they took certain liberties in telling the story... but, that's too be expected from the media... even the media in small places. I'm not fond how the overplayed my 'friendship' with Mark... or the acting stuff at the end either. Either way, screw it, I'll let you know where to find it if you want to see.

Anyway, it's here and you can move ahead as soon as it loads. The piece is at the 20 minute mark:
http://www.cbc.ca/video/popup.html?http://www.cbc.ca/ondemand/hereandnow/stjohns.asx

If that doesn't work, to go http://www.cbc.ca/nl/.

On the right hand side you'll see "Watch CBC News: Here & Now". Click. Then, click "Latest newscast"

P.S. There a spot where they show me scrollin' down one of the pages here. You can see some of your names. LoL.
 
Yeah, you're there.

Oh, and if anyone knows how to save a copy, I'd like to cut the rest out and keep it. It'll be there for about 24 hours...

Any help?

I am such a dork though. Sheesh.
 
Great interview (For some reason i geeked out when i saw my name in that scroll), but you mean save the actual video? I might be able to help.
