The quality of films seems good but no one goes to my website for my opinions on QUALITY of films (keeping in mind my top 3 films are Bye Bye Love, You've Got Mail and Anchorman) but rather THE STARS!
So here are some of the stars who will be at Sundance THIS YEAR:
Ed Helms returns to Sundance which is cool since the last time he came I missed the chance to say something I wanted to say but forgot. I've been practicing too... Hey Ed, Beer me a picture with ya?
He's in Cedar Rapids with Anne Heche, Sigourney Weaver, Alia Shawkat (Maebe Funke!!) and The 2 time winner of my BIGGEST JERK OF SUNDANCE award... John C Reilly.
I've never met Tobey Maguire but I will this year. He's in The Details with Elizabeth Banks who I once saw but never got a pic with. Ray Liotta, Dennis Haysbert Kerry Washington and Laura Linney are also in the cast.
Speaking of Elizabeth Banks she has 2 films this year. The other is with Paul Rudd, Zooey Deschanel and Emily Mortimer... I've met them all before.
Greg Kinnear who again pic of but not really with is in The convincer with Alan Arkin and Billy Cruddup who I think will remember me. The last time I saw him I proposed to Mandy Moore. He was there.
JK Simmons (The dad from Juno) is in a movie with Lou Taylor Pucci... whose dad I've been talking to on facebook so I'm excited to meet LTP.
Jeffrey Tambor from Arrested Developement will make the 5th cast member I've met if I meet him this year. My goal is to meet the ENTIRE cast of A.D. which is one of my top 4 favorite TV shows ever (Ed, Sports Night, The Office are the other 3). Old school J.T. is in Win Win with Paul Giamatti, Amy Ryan and Bobby Cannavale.
There are some people who we assume will be there by association to some of this years films:
Chaz Bonos mom is Cher... so I'm hoping to get a pic with her at the premiere of the film about her daughter turned son.
The Troubadours is a documentary featuring James Taylor and Carole King with lots of legends interviewed. James Taylor is on my list to meet.
There's a documentary about powerful women with people like Katie Couric, Condoleeza Rice, Nancy Pelozzi and others. Condie Rice is speaking at BYU 3 days before so it looks like I'll meet her.
TJ Miller (Gulliver's Travels and Yogi Bear) is one of the funniest people alive and even though he has yet to add me on facebook doesn't mean I'm not crazy stoked to meet him at his short film "I'm having a difficult time killing my parents".
So there's a bunch more I'll tell you about when I do part 2.
