HIDDEN FORTRESS: THE LAST PRINCESS premier @ USC!
I'm sorry this is soo long but...
WORDS CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE HOW BEAUTIFUL JUN LOOKED! LIKE OMG!! I CAN'T SAY THAT ENOUGH! omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg!!! I must say, waiting in line for freaken 3 and a 1/2 hours or so was TOTALLY WORTH IT! I remember that when we got there, there was already a line! So my best friend, her mom, and I started waiting in the line. When the line finally started movie, we of course got all excited! Then as we were approaching the door our tensions where getting higher and higher! At the entrance they took our cellphones and cameras away because they didn't want anyone bootlegging the movie I guess, but all we wanted to do was take some JUN PICTURES!! Anyways, at the entrance, they gave us some pamphlets and stuff which was really cool! Once inside, as soon as everyone had settled down, the curtain parted but a screen was behind there. I seriously thought they were going to be behind there sitting at a table kind of like the whole COOL&SOUL situation from the TAIPEI concert, but noooo! Instead the guy who did the voice for C-3PO, Anthony Daniels, of Star Wars, came out and talked a bit and introduce the director Shinji Higuchi, and then, JUN MATSUMOTO! Everyone screamed and clapped for him!
*He looked so perfect, he almost looked like a doll! His outfit looked great on him, especially his pants which were quite tight fitting, or so it looked like it! Made him look extra skinny! His hair! His Hair! HIS HAIR! It was so nicely done! It looked like a cloud! I thank whoever did it for him OR even if he did it himself, WHAT A GREAT JOB THEY DID! AHH! HE JUST LOOKED GREAT, AMAZING LIKE A GOD ALMOST! Let me tell you, HE LOOKS SOOOOOOO GOOD IN PERSON, i just imagine how the other members of ARASHI might look! WOW!*
Once up on the stage, the director gave a little speech in english and then JUN DID TOO, in english too! It was so CUTE!!! AFTER THAT, he went to the back and the movie began! Oh one last thing I forgot to mention earlier was that my best friend and I believe they were using a DECOY to try and fool us because I swear, and she does too, that there was this guy there that was dressed similarly as JUN and he might have even looked like him at a glance!
Anyways back to the story... The movie was actually pretty good! I thought i was only going to like it because of JUN but i really liked it overall! After the movie of course, the three guests there came back out for a Q&A. For the most part the questions asked were pretty interesting, I mean maybe some of the fangirls there wanted to hear more about JUN and ARASHI or what not but the purpose of this whole event was for the movie! It was a bit confusing at times because the translators had some difficulties, but one thing that i remember clearly was when one of the questions asked JUN if he related in any way to the character in the story and then he said he didn't because he wouldn't be able to say lines like the character in the movie did. Then in the cutest way ever, IN ENGLISH TOO, he said "I'M SHY" Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! I died right there! At that point there was a lot of "AWWWWS" and *giggles*!!
The Q&A continued for a bit and then the audience go to ask the guests some questions. Then they were all like "Well thank you for coming" and just like that it was OVER! As JUN headed to the door, people were handing him flowers and all these things, it was so cute watching him take them all in his hands!
As he headed out, so did everyone else. There was a little reception thingy after the movie and most people went, but my friend I decided to stick around the theater there a bit longer because we had a hunch that JUN was still in there somewhere. We figured that the people there had gotten him out of there TOO quickly and found that suspicious! AND we were RIGHT! A few seconds after Anthony Daniels came out and was giving his autograph, we saw JUN coming out! Everyone there, [which was not many because most of those people where at the reception] headed to the door and started busting out with their cameras! My friend's mom took some pictures for us while we tried our best to get close to him. When he started heading to somewhere else, a safer place i guess, all of us there we chasing after him! I literally was so close to him that if i wanted to i would have been able to reach his jacket at least! HE LOOKED SO GOOD WALKING TOO!!
After we reached the place where he was having another interview, we saw this suspicious Escalade pulling in. My friend, he mom, and I then decided to stay close but there because JUN was bound to come out sooner or later to leave. Then, my friend's mom asked the driver if he was the one driving JUN and he told us he was allowed to reveal that information! OF COURSE THAT GAVE IT AWAY! So we waited there for a bit with these two other girls. Then we started seeing people coming to the car to drop off stuff and one of the things we saw was all the bouquets of flowers JUN had previously gotten, so we knew that was the car! A few minutes later we noticed the car was leaving and we all ran after it, sooner than later we saw JUN trying to get to car. Once in it, as he was leaving, he stuck his hand out and waved! KAWAII!!
This was such a great day! I will never forget it! I just wish to someday meet all of ARASHI! THAT would COMPLETE ME!! I do feel bad for the people who didn't go, but that's how we feel too when JUN is doing all kinds of stuff elsewhere! I'm just really happy now! AHH!
**Oh yeah here are a few pictures of the event, i just hope i don't get in trouble because they're really strict about all these picture-taking situations!
P.S. I also have scans of the booklet they gave out if anyone is interested & PLEASE DON'T POST THESE PICTURES ANYWHERE ELSE OR GIVE CREDIT OR LET ME KNOW FIRST! PLEASE!!!
