    Hmmm...see, this is why I don't really wanna meet my heroes - as they say, they'll usually only disappoint - they're people too I guess

    This makes baby Jesus cry.

    Cereval, did you happen to talk to George? I only ask since I've heard a rumor that he & Christine are splitting up. Inquiring minds want to know, is this true?

    Actually, I didn't even really see George. He had a whole room to himself where he was being mobbed for autographs. I figure I had my brushes with The Man and I'd leave him be ... as for the rumor, who knows ... I've had the feeling that they haven't been on the best terms in recent years. But to break up now would really be futile IMO.

    Pretty decent line-up.

    But I don't think I will be making it. Too much going on with the film.



    and to comment about Savini... When you aren't in the "Circle" you are pretty much ignored. I was even surprised he remembered me from the DAWN World Premiere party in LA. He can be a bit of an asshole.

    I hear more times that not that Savini is an utter asshat...and he was a bit of an asshat when I met him a few years back. More quiet...but people could easily take that as asshat-ish...as I did, especially when I hear more and more the way he treats his fans.

    I hear that Romero is an incredibly friendly guy, however.

    Savini's probably let the fame go to his head, the whole "being an actor" thing reeks of it - don't give up the day job Tom, seriously, lol.

    As for GAR, he seems like a really chilled out kinda guy, on all the docs and all the DVDs and from all the folk who have met him from these forums, he sounds like a really cool, laid back kinda dude. Guess he's really putting that 60s spin on life. It's good to see GAR's also stuck to his guns and not done a John Carpenter in the film industry too.

    Rock on GAR.
