The film was actually pretty sweet. I mean if you're into that sort of thing. It's not really reinventing the wheel or anything. If you enjoy the films of Mr. Smith and or Apatow then chances are you really enjoy this one as well. Like most of their films, it's got some super-sweet dialog, which is pretty consistent throughout, as well as a few choice moments that stick with you days after. There are also some sweet sort of bit parts that really made the movie for me.
I didn't get to chat with him for very long, only a few minutes, it was mostly geeky Star Wars stuff, which he seemed totally into. Then I during the Q&A after the film, I asked him if he got the approval George Lucas for a Star Wars sequence in the new film. He said he did not, and then told a sweet story about Affleck calling him on Thanksgiving (years ago when he was dating Gwyneth Paltrow) from Steven Spielberg's house right after Lucas had shown up. Basically Spielberg and Lucas argued about whose web-site was "cooler" for like a half hour, then they proceeded to look up each others web-sites together and chat about what they liked about each others. If was apparently a huge geek-fest. Which in some odd way makes me feel better about my geekness.
