He signed my bad taste dvd cover, even personalized it, I got 2 pictures with him, shoke his hand twice and chatted for a few minutes! I am still on cloud nine - my boyfriend is going back up this morning and we are trying again tonight so he can try to meet him!! I meet him after waiting 45 minutes and it was right as they started to wrap up for the night - oh and I saw Mark Wahlberg walk to his trailer.... I think a ton of folks got to meet him like 15 minutes later... from the cheer in the crowd across the parking lot, I am guessing he came out... but I only wanted Peter and I got him!!!

Where every "new" store is, I can name the store that used to be there before they all started closing down. Wild. It’s funny b/c I was just working in the mall up until June.

We saw cops, security guards, extras going in for hair/makeup, and LOTS of trailers in the parking lot. They also had those bright lights aimed at the mall entrance. We were kept at a distance, and there was the local NBC (Channel 10) news truck and cameraman there. We spoke to several people who had been in the mall last weekend, and had seen the set decoration. Some hadn't known a movie was to be shot there, and got their hopes up about the mall being renovated and new stores coming in. We found out cast and crew ate at Nifty-Fifty's on Monday night (they closed the restaurant for them), and Mark Wahlberg had been at Burger King early Tuesday, and Susan Sarandon had been to the Wawa across the street. Anyway, we DID catch a VERY brief glimpse of Wahlberg, on his way to his trailer, and my daughter saw Sarandon, who was nice enough to stop and wave to the crowd from a distance!

Remember hearing from a Tolkien who visited the king kong new york set that all of the shop window dressings there were just as immaculate as these. Go detail! For some reason i'm still concerned that this film could end up being a bit of a let down. Not so much because we're used to action-jackson, but because of the delicacy of the story, which i'm worried fran walsh might bludgeon a bit. havent seen the screenplay though so cant really judge.
