The girl from "Signs" is Abigail Breslin. She's since been in "Little Miss Sunshine", "No Reservations", and other movies. She'd make a great Sarah, but she's such a wonderful actress that I wouldn't dare cast her in a small part. So the Sarah part would have to be very pronounced and involved in the plot.

The photos of KLS in JF's lap are great! And that one with KLS in JF's lap and LP off to the side looking quite "annoyed" is just HILARIOUS. God, it harkens back to so many things lol.

I, for one, would NOT want  the proposed DS movie and Pirates 4 playing at the same time at the theaters. Don't ask me why, because I do like the Pirates movies (though I'm not boo-koo about them), but for some reason that thought just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

I think DS needs to be released in the fall season, September or October. It's a very "fall film", I think.

If I make a reservation I'll definitely ask to be sure of what their cancellation policy is. Now I just have to find someone to go with me. Maybe I'll just come by myself? Hmm.

Read that little column in my copy of EW MB! I was elated to see a mention of DS! And BTW, the new "Halloween" flick ain't too shabby. I actually liked it.

Where were these ruins on the property? I tried looking for them, but couldn't find them.

I feel it's very unprofessional to tell actors
"I can't pay your way, so you pay."

I have to agree here. I'm not sure how I would feel, were I one of the actors, and I was told "Well we're paying for KLS, LP, and AM (were she to attend) but not for you, because those other three always draw big crowds." I mean, I'm sure that it's worded a little nicer than that, or maybe not, but I think I'd feel slightly snubbed.

But, that doesn't mean that I don't see WHY JP and the fest committee are doing that. I mean, if they paid for the transportation and housing of each star that wanted to attend every year, it WOULD become quite expensive, and seeing as there is a financial side to all this--at least wanting to break even--it's not exactly a horrible business practice. Then again, they could just say "we're not paying for any of you, so those of you who want to come and peddle your business, c'mon."

why does the almighty god of the festival have to bless this idea? the cruise can be organized independently and the 2 stars can be contacted through their websites. if the stars want to attend they will decide on their own.

Abso-friggin-lutely!

Not that this makes a bit of difference, because she probably would've come ANYWAY, but while waiting at KLS's table this year at the fest, someone was talking to her hubby, confirming that they had a place in NYC. And he said that one of the reasons they were there this year was because they were already going to be in town for something else, and were staying at their NYC place.

Anywho, a train trip sounds awesome. I'd do that too. But I like the cruise better. We could do it during the winter. Down in the Caribbean it's hot year round.
