Now, wouldn't THAT be fitting!?
SQ:Now, wouldn't THAT be fitting!?
HA! I wondered if anyone would pick up on that! - Ramius and I looked at each other when he said it and said... "Now... that would be really cool." In a few years, when he has got a few films behind him. Hope he keeps in touch with his Weta friends!
MBY, his film is great, and I had seen it before... He uses the size doubles from LoTR to show how people can use their talents to work together. If you haven't seen it, it is available here: The Long and Short of it (it is only about 5 min long, and downloadable in a couple resolutions)
Afterwards, I was impressed that many people asked him questions about it first, before getting right into LoTR questions. Some were there to see and appreciate what he was interested in, not just be LoTR fanatics!
Ramius and I actually left before the film was over, right as the preparations for battle were beginning.... It was 11:00 then, and we were tired. I am sure the movie got out after midnight. So even leaving when we did, we got home about 2:15 am!
Here is a report sent to TORN about it.... other than her not having any concept of time (He spoke much longer than 10 min before the short film! - more like 30 without exaggeration!), she wrote about a few interesting things that I didn't mention. Sean Astin Portland Screening Report!
