I was lucky to attend the premier and after-party for the movie "Waitress". Nathan was a real nice guy. Was able to chat with him for a few minutes alone when his gf and my wife were in the bathroom and we were outside waiting for them. He signed my Firefly photo and a "Vigilante" comic. Which he thought was cool since he never saw it before. To those who don't know. Nathan did the voice for the Vigilante in the Justice League cartoon. I told him my wife and daughter love "Drive". He told me it was cancelled. A bit later at the party. My wife went up to him and told him how bummed she was. And asked so who won the race? He said they never knew and that the last episode he was in second. So my wife and his gf decided that he won and they were sticking with that. :D

I tried to post the pics here or link to them. But, its not allowing me.

Ahhh, it worked great! Thank you so much for sharing!

Now I have a question...

I'm a member of the Appreciatin' Nathan crew on the www.serenitymovie.org site. We have a thread and subforum over there dedicated to appreciating Nathan's acting. May I post this over there, or may I invite you to put it on our main thread, please?

Please accept my apologies, Zipbags, my browser had not refreshed properly and I didn't realize you'd decided to do it yourself. I posted over on the Appreciatin' Nathan thread, but very quickly took it down when this loaded and I saw what you'd typed.

You will see my post asking for your apology and please do still post. I know the folks over there will be very pleased to see your report and pics.

Again, I'm so sorry.

Oh, thank you. I just hate it when I'm rude, even inadvertently.

The Appreciatin' Nathan thread is under General Discussion over there, you'll see my apology post.

I did however leave my post up in our subforum as it's a closed except to members forum... is that ok?

I just posted a link to here. I didn't post the pics or your story.

Don't worry. I wasn't offended at all. Its been about 20 minutes and I still haven't gotten a registration confirmation from the site. So I can't post anyways. I have some more pics of Nathan from the premier...Just random shots. If you are interested I will post them.

Yes, please, we'd love to see them, both here and there. LOL

I don't know why your membership confirmation is taking so long... that's kind of unusual.

Do you use aol mail, that site seems to have a real problem with aol. You might try another mail like yahoo or hotmail if you do use aol.

You know this is the 2nd movie premier & after-party I have gone to. The first was last August. It was my 15th wedding anniversary and I won a charity auction to attend the premier & after-party for Talladega Nights starring Will Ferrell. My wife is a big Nascar fan and loves Dale Jr. I also enjoy Nascar and love the movies. So it was perfect. While the Waitress premier was great. The Talladega Nights one was unreal. It was at Graummans Chinese Theatre in LA. And not only was it a much larger and grander event. The amount of stars there was boggling. Whats wierd is that you are so perplexed how to act. I mean you don't want to be all starstruck or crazed fan. But, when your standing 2 feet from some big celebrities and your able to go up to chat with them its intimidating. I always want to go up and chat with them like their friends or associates that are there. I joked with my wife before the first premier that it would be cool to start up a conversation and become friends with a star? She laughs and tells me to come back to reality. Hey, I can wish. One thing that is funny. Is that I go to scifi conventions. So when I asked for an autograph..I kept wondering if I was going to have to hand them money. :D

Here are some pics from that...

The after-party


Jeremy Piven


Michael Clark Duncan


Britney Murphy

Man, oh, man! Let me calm down a bit first.

Nathan takes THE BEST here-give-me-your-camera-I'll-hold-it-myself pictures.
Must be his long arms.

Zip, all the pics look very natural and relaxed except the one with Keri Russell. Were you afraid to lean in?
Afraid of what she might do? Or afraid of what the wife might do?

No, the wife takes the picture. Trust me if she was good with the pic of me & Britney Murphy. I am sure she had no problem with Keri. The reason it was rushed was that she was just finishing some interviews and is 9 months pregnant. So I didn't want to hold her up too much. She was nice enough to take the pic and sign the after-party invite.

Their are more pics of people from both premiers. I will post them if people are interested.

The premier was in NYC on 29th st. The after-party was a few blocks away in Madison Square Park. They cordoned off part of the park. Set up tents.
