• last day of #sxsw film. Took yesterday off from film. Well, I went and saw Knowing. That was just a weird film. Weird in a bad way I think. #
• I feel like I have a #sxsw hangover. Not from excess drinking, cuz I did not do that at all, but from the go-go-go of it all I guess. #

• started my #swsw this year with 2 great movies. I Love You, Man & ExTerminators. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for the week. #
• At I love you man panel. Room is full so I get to see it on a screen outside the room. I really need to learn to leave earlier. #
• Finished watching Bomber at Alamo Ritz. Great film. Loved it. Check it out if you can. #sxsw #
• In a packed house at ritz for true adolescents. Saw Zoe Lister-Jones outside I think (from Breaking Upwards). #SXSW #
• True Adolescents was great. Mark Duplass was excellent. Next up is Moon with Sam Rockwell at the paramount. No wifi there. Bastards. #SXSW #
• Couldn't get into Adventureland. So decided to get some grub at Maudie's with the hubbie. #
• Completely full now. Guess it'll be time to get back in line soon. Think I will attempt to see Four Boxes. #sxsw #
• In line for Four Boxes. Long wait, but at least I get to sit on a nice cushy seat. Also having my iPod makes it less dull. Go sudoku! #SXSW #
• Sitting in front of cast of Four Boxes at Alamo #SXSW #
• On the shuttle to get back to the car. Think I am calling it a night. #SXSW #
• At paramount all day, so no wifi so very little tweeting for me today. I know you're devastated. #sxsw #
• Sitting on balcony patio on 4th floor convention center. There's some cheesy fucker doing an interview in this awful interview voice. #SXSW #
• Sitting in 16AB in anticipation of Richard Linklater and Todd Haynes talk. Got a great seat too. #SXSW #
• At convention center for We Live in Public. Let's hope it doesn't suck like St. Nick. OMG what a yawner. Looked beautiful though. #SXSW #
• Missed first movie cuz the city decided to not only shut 6th St down, but shut lanes down on other streets too. Brilliant fuqrs. #SXSW #
• Got to see Broken Lizard at the screening of Slammin' Salmon. Funny guys. Now in Lesbian Vampire Killers. Yah, you're jealous. #SXSW #
• I was really hoping that when the music started at #SXSW that the movies would start getting easier to get into. This hasn't been the case. #
• #sxsw has been revealing in many ways. For example, it's shocking how many people I've seen use the loo and not wash their hands after. #
• just saw what could tie for my favorite movie of #sxsw - Modern Love is Automatic. Melodie Sisk has one of the best bodies I've ever seen. #

SXSW 2009 - Day 1 - Friday

I took the first day of SXSW off, even though the movies didn't start until the evening. I have to have time to prepare you see. Rest, relax, basic slacking. I had planned on going to the panel on getting the most out of SXSW. But as usual I didn't plan well. The traffic at 2 pm was worse than rush hour then combine that with the pouring rain. Not pretty. So it took me 45 minutes to get down to the convention center. I still needed to get my goodie bag. I managed to snag a meter spot and only had to pay 75 cents to park. Even that was overkill cuz it didn't take me but ten minutes to get in and out. The ride home took me an hour cuz of the scared pansy drivers. You'd think it was ice and not just a wee bit of water.

Later, Mike and I headed down to Paramount to catch I Love You, Man. I went to my badge line which was INSANE and Mike went into his little film pass line. I got us seats, Mike was able to get in, and voila. The entire main cast were there and it was very cool to see them. Excuse the blurry picture, but we were quite far up the balcony.

The movie was hilarious. Paul Rudd was excellent. Understated, which made the hilarity that much more yanno, hilarious. The Q&A afterwards was a bit of a bummer, because Janet Pierson obviously didn't think about what kinds of questions she would ask her first Q&A at her first screening of the first year as her being the director for the SXSW Film. If that were me, I think I would have practiced about 100 questions to ask. Just to have them in the pocket and ready to go. Instead of fumbling around, hemming & hawing. Bah. Makes me miss Matt Dentler, that's for sure.

We stayed at Paramount and watched ExTerminators, with Heather Graham, Jennifer Coolidge, and Amber Heard. It was filmed in Austin, so that was excellent of course. It was about a group of ladies in an anger management group that decide to take matters into their own hands when it comes to the men in their lives. Very good stuff. Heather Graham was very good and I'm not usually that impressed with her. Mike also said she has "awesome boobs". Yes, yes she does.
