    I met Sean Astin!! (Goonies, Rudy, LOTR)

    ahhhh! He was so sweet and nice. I stood in line for two hours for roughly two minutes of chat and an autograph but it was worth it.

    My friend and I dressed up as Hogwarts Students and when it was our turn, he smiled at me and promptly asked, "How's Dumbledore?" I laughed and said he was doing okay. He then said that we looked really cute and that he loved the outfits. I told him that I hoped he had a nice day and that it was really great to meet him. My friend was speechless (she could only muster a shy "Hi." as she's had a crush on him ever since she saw Goonies.) But she did get a pic with him too and that made her day.







    John Rhys Davies (Gimli) was also there, but we never got a chance to meet him or get his autograph, but that's okay, he's going to be at Dragon*Con and I'll most likely meet him there.

    OMG LUCKY!

    Where was this signing? Was it for Lord of the Rings? I love the books and the movies!

    If you're listening to this song
    You may think the chords are going wrong
    But they're not
    We just wrote it like that

    When you're listening late at night
    You may think the band are not quite right
    But they are, they just play it like that

    It doesn't really matter what chords I play
    What words I say or time of day it is
    As it's only a Northern song

    It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
    Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
    When it's only a Northern song

    If you think the harmony
    Is a little dark and out of key
    You're correct, there's nobody there

    And I told you there's no one there

    It was at Gen Con in Indianapolis, IN, this past weekend.

    He'll be at Wizard World Con in Chicago, IL August 8th - 10th.

    It seems he's at a lot of signing and stuff.

    Damn it! My dad said no way was he hopping on a plane so I could see Sean Astin...grr...

    YOU MET MICKEY!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOO NOT FAR!

    I love him, and am sooooo very jealous now. Not only can the guy act but he's also a pretty decent director the ep of Angel that he did was awesome. But let's be honest the real reason I like the guy is for The Goonies it was the first time I saw him and it will be what I always remember him for the best. Because of that reason you have no idea how hard it is to watch LOTR and not shut out random Goonies quotes.
    Goonies never say die!



    Thanks Amy for the great sig!

    LOL!! But does your wife think he's cute?

    KayAnn... did you see Lord of the Rings? Sean played Samwise Gamgee.

    Sean Astin is so darn cute! I am amazed that such a cute guy came from John Astin !!!

    Kim, as I said to you before, I am so jealous. I had the biggest crush on Sean since Goonies, went threw the teenie-bopper magazines and cut out all the Sean Astin pics that I found and kept them in a folder that I filled with hearts and stuff He was soooo dreamy to me as a young teen....and I must say, he's a really cute man. Congrats on meeting him and thanks for the pics

    every time I turn around you are talking about meeting someone famous... YOU BETTER STOP IT... unless you plan on picking me up and taking me next time...

    I would probably act like a complete idiot if I got to meet him... I can be shy...

    your costumes were cute.... where did y'all get them.. or did y'all just throw them together....

    GREAT PICTURES!!!
