Well, since EW hasn't posted this himself yet, I'll chuck it out there for the rest of you few and far between LA types on this board:
http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...logID=322251329 Pretty spectacular lineup, E. I'm most excited about the Beyond/Head double header, but I'm planning on hitting at least four of those, possibly five. Heeeeee. |

The two that you didn't highlight are actually at the top of my list, Sos.
 But I'm going to squeeze in as many as I can. I'm SO excited to see Tremors on the big screen again... it doesn't get screened in revival nearly as often as it should. This post has been edited by thirtyhelens: Oct 25 2007, 10:02 PM |

I'm seriously considering flying out from the 9th to the 13th. Will have to check on some things first...
edit: Southwest seems to be discontinuing service between DC and LAX as of 11/29. Surely that can't be right. If so, fuck 'em. This post has been edited by mcraigclark: Oct 25 2007, 11:26 PM |

Okay, Edgar is intimating that he may actually produce Paul Williams for us at the Bugsy Malone/Phantom of the Paradise screening on Dec. 2nd.
I just squee'd along with a plucky piano accompaniment. |

That is like 2 days away from where I live... I might actually be able to attend that. If I can justify taking even more time off work to cross the border and watch movies.

Holy mother of really cool stuff...
 QUOTE THE WRIGHT STUFF - GUESTS AND INTROS! UPDATED! THE WRIGHT STUFF @ The New Beverly – Dec 2nd - 18th Just when you thought you couldn't get any more excited about Edgar Wright's festival at the New Beverly, we've come to blow your mind. The line up of Edgar's special guests are so incredibly awesome, you are going to thank us profusely for the best Christmas present you have ever received. The following performances will feature introductions from Edgar and Q&A's with these special guests. Dec 2nd 7.30pm – Bugsy Malone & Phantom of the Paradise On the night of Dec 2nd , Edgar will start off the whole shebang with a very, very special guest. Not only the super talented composer of Bugsy Malone, but the star Phantom Of The Paradise, Mr. Paul Williams. Yes, that's right, one of America's greatest songwriters will be in the house and talking to Edgar. Also! December 2nd, at midnight is the Dangerous Business Secret Show, all are invited, and it's something you certainly won't want to miss! Dec 5th – Flash Gordon & Danger Diabolik – 7.30pm In attendance with Edgar will be everyone's favorite Flash nemesis, Prince Barin himself, Timothy Dalton. Then Joe Dante will be helping Edgar introduce Mario Bava's cult classic Danger: Diabolik, with the one, the only Diabolik himself John Phillip Law! Dec 7th – The Last Boy Scout and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang – 7.30pm In attendance with Edgar, the writer of Last Boy Scout and the writer / director of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, as well as countless other crime classics, Shane Black, will be in attendance! Dec 10th – American Werewolf in London and Tremors – 7.30pm You can't get much more brilliant than John Landis, and we've got him! The director of American Werewolf will be in here in person and in conversation with Edgar. Dec 12th – Top Secret and Bananas – 7.30pm In attendance with Edgar tonight, a very special guest. When it comes to comedy, the name Zucker ranks high on the list. It doesn't get much funnier than Top Secret, and it doesn't get much more exciting than a Q&A with David Zucker himself! Dec 14th – Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls (TBC) & Head – 7.30pm With Edgar. Introducing 'Head'. Mickey Dolenz. Need we say more? Dec 16-17 – Raising Arizona & Evil Dead 2 Edgar will introduce the 7.30pm screening on Dec 16th. Special guests and more fun TBC. Eyes, keep em peeled. If you are anywhere near LA you really should go. How could you not? That is a seriously amazing line-up. |
