Stay Out of the Swamp
Tickets go on sale today for “HATCHET“ at the Tribeca Film Festival to the general public.
At first tickets were only available to American Express Card Holders (the fest’s sponsor), then to NYC downtown residents and now it’s finally open to everyone.
I just saw the teaser trailer up on the fest’s site and I had to turn the volume waaay down on my computer’s tiny speakers because I was already getting freaked out by the audio.
Now I just hope the visuals will do justice to the sound.
I literally have no idea what this movie’s going to look like as I’m being kept in the dark along with the potential distributors until it screens at the end of the month.
I’ll be at the April 29 & 30 screenings for the Q&A panels after each movie but you’ll also probably catch me in the audience right before with my fingers plugged in my ears and eyes halfway closed. I have no idea how my mom’s going to get through it.
(The April 29 screening looks to be a blast as it’ll be showing at midnight and be the first audience comprising of real movie goers as opposed to silent, over-scrutinizing movie execs. That’s me in the puffy, pirate orange shirt above.)
Also, remember to tune into FX this Tuesday, 10pm (7pm on DiSH) to “THIEF“. Tensions will arise as Vincent (Will Yun Lee) and “Shrimp Boy“ (me) finally standoff with Nick (Andre Braugher).
The episode will delve more into Vincent’s character — revealing just why he’s 
had a bad case of the shakes for the past 3 episodes.
And see how “Shrimp Boy“ throws Scarlett Johansson into the mix. Huh? You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
THIEF – Tuesdays 10pm on FX

Hello, I heard you were coming to Mizzou to speak on Friday, April 21st? Well, I guess I will see you there.
thanks for coming to speak at MU. it was a good time. shakespeares wasn’t too bad was it?
=O ooomgggg
wtf is this really you.. or this some fan site LOL
I see you have changed your profile picture in for a more “rugged” look. Excellent.
Hey Parry Shen, you’re definately an inspiration. I really appreciate you coming out after the banquet and seeing the rest of the students. Even though I wasn’t really interactive. I guess I get shy around infamous individuals. It’s beautiful to hear meaningful messages from real people. And again, thank you for speaking. Good luck with your career and keep doing what you love.
Hi Parry! It was nice to meet you this weekend at MU. I’m the one of the kids from KU. Oh yeah.. I just saw the previews for your new show, Thief. It looks pretty good. I’ll be sure to check it out on Tuesday!
hahahaha i love that catch line at the top… it’s not a remake, it’s not a sequel, and it’s not a japanese one. pretty funny!
So.. what about Scarlett Johansson?
