Its not the first time, as in the past chronic insomnia and months of unemployment meant going to bed at 9am and sleeping 'till 6pm, but this wasn't that 6. This morning I rolled with 6pm's straight laced, responsable older brother 6am. I now sort of know what AC Slater must have felt like hanging out with Screech. Sure, he'll help you with your home work, but theres just something gross feeling about it.
The reason? It seems I've developed an aversion to seeing movies at the same time as everyone else. I always seem to find a way to see shit early, and I'm not affraid to go great lengths to do so. On this bright and early morning, it was to attend the World Premire of Kevin Smith's "Zack & Miri Make a Porno", starring my non-sexual man crush, Seth Rogan.
Oh Seth Rogan. He's like a human Fozzie Bear.
Living in Toronto has it's ups and downs, but having a world class film festival has always been a decided "up". In previous years I've seen premires of Rushmore, Almost Famous, Vulgar, Bowling for Columbine, A Dirty Shame, Into the Wild, Body of War and even Kevin Smith's Dogma. So it was with excitement I went to the Toronto Film Fest website at 7am to try to obtain tickets...and got this screen close to 100 times.
It was a full ten minutes of refreshing and swearing, when my order for a pair of tickets finally went through. On the scale of inconvieniences, from having to walk down an escalator to having the driver of the car you're in pass out, this was roughly stubbing your toe. Which isn't that bad, but considering I just refured to this festival as "world class", you'd figure they'd have deep enough pockets to buy a decent server to handle the traffic. You'd think it was brought to you by Rogers or something.
I'll be attending the world premire of Zack & Miri Make a Porno.
They released the trailer today, and as soon as I heard, I excused myself, headphones in hand, to watch on my iPhone (more on THAT later) from my work's bathroom.
It doesn't disappoint...
I'll leave you with that. See yuh.
ps. Oh, and scientists might just end the world as we know it.
