The 3-D Expos are highlights in my moviegoing life. Unforgettable. The classic 3-D films are what cinema is all about. One of the pleasures for me was meeting director Richard Fleischer. I remember QT sitting more or less in the center standing up and shouting to JD a dozen rows back that he had just bought a 16mm print of Gremlins and JD, after waiting a beat, responds "I didn't know there were any 16mm prints of Gremlins." Or something like that.
I wish the Expo would press a DVD of the celebrity interviews. They were all videotaped. It would be a nice souvenir. The audience was videotaped, too. My face at the first Expo is on the poster for the second Expo. I hate having my picture taken. While standing on line outside, mingling in the lobby, waiting at the snackbar, sitting in our seats, the cameramen with mounted flood just never let up. I brought a little pocket mirror in with me to bounce light back at them but in the end I reconsidered.
