Insanity in the Off Time

[viridian5]

This article on Adrian Pasdar revealed something I had no idea about, that he and some members of the cast of Heroes shoot goofy videos on their downtime and upload them to YouTube under his account name of buckshotwon. He makes good points in the interview about why they post to YouTube instead of on the NBC site

did you know he's in Near Dark, an ancient 80's vampire flick,
he's about 17 in it (and has a large role as wooden american boy Caleb)
it's a wonderful film and well, if you like him you should check out the jeans he appears to have grown on in it
the film rocks too

I saw Near Dark in the 80s, though I loved it more for the Aliens reunion squad of vampires than him. Not that Pasdar's tight jeans weren't a thing of beauty!

I fangirled Adrian Pasdar more for his time on Profit, an old FOX show.

I saw it in the 80's and recently forked out for the dvd box set and it was better than i remembered
for years i thought kathryn bigelow directed aliens because you could guarantee the same actors in every one
(has just occurred to me it's been 10 years since i did an alien movie marathon and about ten days since the last evil dead one)

in the uk we didn't get a lot of american programs, so I never saw profit, I saw a couple of eps of mysterious ways though
but those jeans
they were like in place of leg hair or something, they were on so tight

mind you I'm a Mr bennet fan in heeroes (and yes I am watching season 2, although season 1 finished over here tonight)

I think Kathryn Bigelow and James Cameron knew each other pretty well.

Profit was a 90s show in which he played a ruthless, ambitious nutjob. It wasn't on for long, but it was good.

Noah Bennet often kicks ass.

i knew there was something else i wanted to mention
they're probably not on youtube but a limited edition version of the princess bride DVD release had cary elwes films from on set, where he just videotaped people between takes, practising and stuff like that
that's the other thing i wanted to mention

[viridian5]

Alas, I already own a DVD of the movie. But thanks!

I didn't know you didn't know about the Buckshotwon videos on YouTube or I would've told you ages ago. I never get tired of the one that has Milo just sitting for most of it, then ends with a perfectly framed butt shot when he stands up and hitches up his pants.

[viridian5]

I had no idea!

Oh, man. What's the name of that one? *g*

[the_other_sandy]

Rectum County. Seriously, the clip is about 30 seconds of Milo just sitting there, followed by the 2 seconds where he stands up and hitches up his pants. But that last 2 seconds is worth the wait. 8-P

Thanks!
