I met Rian Johnson after a screening of The Shining, and did a poor job of containing my fan-boyness. I'm not quite sure what to say to people I admire in public.  I didn't want to bother him too much, because he was with others, so I just said I love Brick and think Looper looks terrific.

Cool!

That's rad. Rian Johnson seems like he'd be a cool guy to chat with.

I spoke to him at MaxFunCon for a few minutes and he got really excited when I told him I was a fellow Filmspotting listener.

Just met one of my favorite comedians from when I was growing up. (Can't tell who.) Didn't know he was coming in. Was completely unprofessional when I recognized him, but I watched his standup special so much I can pretty much quote the whole routine.

JJ?

Not quite, but for me he was right up there. Had a talk show that I watched every night. (not Denis Miller.)
