Dr.Ian Malcom

Heard Jeff Goldblum was out so headed over to try to catch him to add him to my Jurassic Park 3-D Poster, a couple of 11x14s and a trading card for a fan.  Was there for a few minutes when a valet said "Jeff's here" and seconds later Dr.Ian Malcom himself walked up.  Jeff was very nice and signed all of our items.  Ed tried to get a picture with him but that didn't work out too well.

Oblivion Premiere otherwise known as the night Morgan actually signed...and I had nothing.

Went to the Oblivion Premiere with one goal in mind. Tom Cruise. I know Morgan Freeman doesn't sign...or can't sign anymore (more on that later) and sure, I wouldn't mind more Olga Kurylenko but there was one mission on this day and his name was Tom Cruise.

The ship from the movie was on display on the carpet.

Edwin showing off his Oblivion shirt they passed out to everyone on the rail.  What you see on our friend Will's face is what I like to call the look of disgust.

Arrivals started and Tom was the first one to show up. He came over and began signing right by us. We quickly knocked out four 11x14s and Edwin got a photo op. There were so many people that instead of trying to squeeze in and get more we tried to be smart and go to the section tom had not signed for which was still mellow. Needless to say, our plan backfired and Tom just skipped that section all together.

This is my 2nd botched attempt at a photo with Tom Cruise.  I don't know what I'm doing.

Tom, a very happy Edwin and a special appearance by Will the Autograph Guy.

Combo 11x14 signed by Tom Cruise & Olga Kurylenko.

Morgan Freeman aka the voice of an angel was the next one to show up. Morgan walked along the rail waving when someone yelled at him "use the right hand!" (his signing hand, his left, is damaged from a car accident) to which he shrugged and said okay and signed. This KILLED ME. I always carry my Dark Knight poster to Morgan's premieres in hopes the skies would part and a light would shine down from the heaven's and Mr.Freeman would put his John Hancock on my poster. On this day I gave up and on this day, the heaven's parted and the light broke threw and I watched Morgan Freeman sign for other people. He didn't do much, but he did it. Son of a Beech! (His character in Oblivion.  See what I did there? Nevermind.)

This really happened.

 Last up was Joseph Kosinski, the director of the film. All I had was an 8x10 and he signed it. Other cast members came and did not sign on arrivals but I got what I came for and decided to head out to another event. Quick & productive day.  On the way back to the car we were able to add Olga Kurylenko to the combo 11x14 to complete it as well.

This man hidden in sunlight is the director of Oblivion, Joseph Kosinski.

The Most Beautiful Man on Earth, Matt Bomer!

I'm a heterosexual male...and I have no problem admitting that Matt Bomer may be the best looking man on Earth.  The other day Matt was going to be out so we swung by to try to get our 2 11x14s and 1 8x10 done.  Matt is one of the nice celebrities you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting.  Everytime I see the guy he smiles and signs and takes photos with pretty much whoever asks.  This night was no different.  Thanks Matt.

Aly Raisman...Finally.

I've been wanting to meet Aly Raisman for some time now.  Things haven't worked out so far but today felt like it could be different.  Heard she was going to be out so I made a trip down.  Pulled up.  Flipped the keys to Edwin so he could park the car and grab some drinks at 7-11.

Walked up...and 3-5 minutes later here comes Aly!  PERFECT timing.  Called her over and she came right over and signed my three 12x18s for me.  I also got a pic with her.  Edwin barely had time to park and buy a snack at 7-11 before we were back in the car.

Vote for Aly on Dancing with the Stars.  I don't watch the show but I will watch to support Aly. 

Once Upon a Time at Paleyfest - Ginnifer Goodwin, Josh Dallas, Jennifer Morrison & more!!

Went to the Once Upon a Time Paleyfest recently.  Here's how it all shook down.

Once Upon a Time cast during there panel at Paleyfest 2013

The crowd was wild...very into it...cheering and going crazy for their favorites (Especially Lana Parilla!)  The panel was fun and the cast had a great chemistry and seemed to genuinely enjoy each other.  Lots of joking around and laughing.

Once the Panel broke...the madness began.  This crowd was rabid.  I got out of my chair as quick as I could to get to a good spot and hope to get a few items signed.  I ended up getting into a nice spot and was able to get Jennifer Morrison on a few items.

While Ginnifer was signing Lana Parilla made her way down the stage and squatted right in front of us and began signing.  She is always so sweet and today was no different.  Added her to a couple of solo 11x14s, which she loved, and finished the four person cast item I had started at the beginning with Jennifer.

Finally, Mr.Gold aka Robert Carlyle.  Robert signed...and signed...and signed.  I was surprised by how much he did.  I added him to two 11x14 solos.

I was also able to get 1 Emilie De Ravin but alas, wasn't quick on the draw with the camera.  Colin O'Donoghue also came over and signed and was very cool with the fans.  Added him to an 11x14.

The panel was a lot of fun.  They screened the next episode as well as the first part of the episode after that and they all took a good amount of time with the fans.  Very enjoyable experience.
