James' appearance in Monster Mania is "in doubt"

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 04:49:44 GMT

I was unaware about James making an appearance at Monster Mania. Anyway, today I found an email from James' news list about a party take will take place there. I won't discuss the fact that I think that $200 for a party is really out of proportion, what is really strange is the following email from Steve Himbert:

As many of you may have seen, the organizer of Monster Mania has posted a disclaimer regarding the private party that Himber Ent. is organizing on behalf of James for his scheduled weekend there. Until this matter is resolved satisfactorily, we will be holding off on the reservation process. Once matters have been cleared up, we will again give advanced notice for reservations. Sorry for this inconvenience.

I would strongly suggest that anyone making plans to attend Monster Mania solely because of James' scheduled appearance take a beat until we confirm all details.

Again, thank you for your patience and understanding.

Steve Himber

Then the Monster Mania forum has this thread which has "JAMES MARSTERS APPEARANCE IN DOUBT" as subject.

I emailed Steve Himber directly when I was first made aware of the private party that he had scheduled during our event, unknown to me. I still have not received a reply directly from him but because of the message shown above, I would say that at this time it appears that Mr. Marsters is no longer commited to attending the show. I have instructed our webmaster to remove his name from the website until matters are cleared up. We certainly don't want to mislead anyone about his appearance. If it turns out that he will definitely not be appearing at the event, we will gladly offer a refund to anyone who purchased a ticket specifically to see Mr. Marsters.ETA2-Added by MM recently: Hopefully Mr. Marsters will not disappoint the fans who had planned to see him at Monster-Mania simply because he cannot have the $10,000 private party. We have offered Mr. Marsters time in our main event room where he can spend time with many fans, as the other stars who attend Monster-Mania do.

My apologies for the confusion and inconvenience.

I don't think is nice to make a party without the organizing of the main event knowing, I'm sure that the organizer is angry cause as this is a separated event he won't get anything ($$) from it.

I hope no one in my friend list is affected if James cancels which I think is what I would do if I was the organizer.

ETA: The thread's replies were deleted which I think was made to avoid wank as all of them said they didn't give a shit if James was on or not.

ETA2: Monster Mania's thread has been updated.

Happy Birthday James!

Happy Birthday to one of the friendliest actors I've met Mr. James Marsters. I hope this year brings you new and exciting projects that make you and us happy.

Great news for those JM fans!

What a nice surprise! I just opened my email and found an announcement of James' groups saying that he has been casted in a recurring role in "Without a Trace". It made me smile that he will be Detective Mars. :) Will this detective be related to another teenage detective in Neptune, CA?

I guess my mom will be pleased, she watches the show and I do from time to time because I like Eric Close since I saw him first in The Magnificent Seven. Of course, Anthony LaPlagia is another good reason.

Go James! :)

jm_squares is open for business

Mon, 13 Aug 2007 00:19:15 GMT

I have updated the layout of jm_squares in livejournal and greatestjournal. The community also exists in insanejournal but I have yet to customize the layout (unless somebody can donate a JM layout for S2 Bloggish).

I hope you can join the communities there and spread the word! You can post icons, banners, wallpapers, layouts, manips, scans, etc. The community is focused on James but if you want to share graphics of James as Spike or Braniac or Simon, etc you can do it too.

The communities are:

JM_squares at insanejournal
JM_squares at greatestjournal

and of course, the original one JM_squares at livejournal.

I'm also looking for a co-mod for the community in each of those journal sites. If you're interested email me at red_sunflower (at) livejournal.com.

PS: To all of those who have added me recently and are not mutual friends at lj, please leave a comment if you want to be added to my reading list. Thank you!

Shadow Puppets the movie

Sun, 12 Aug 2007 00:28:44 GMT

I've just finished watching Shadow Puppets...

As expected, not a good movie but a watchable one. Tony Todd is amazing (he got the best parts) and James does a great job considering that the script is not something out of this world. Mom watched with me and was pleased, I guess that the great part about the movie is that you can see James in light clothing and a bunch of girls also in light clothing with the big plus of one gratuitous nude scene. Oh! and I figured out before it was revealed that the machine was... overused and that the math says that 8 doesn't equal 9. The ending per se was blah but the previous scenes that showed the faith that many of the characters suffered was good. I think that James' character got the best twist of the story because I expected other character to suffer it.

Anyway, as I said first, not a good movie and if you ask me it doesn't compensate the price you pay for it but well, James is in it and that is enough for a James fan like myself. I hope that his character in PS I love you is good enough so he can get offered tons of roles so he can choose the bests. :)
