The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part three — Page 303

A friend of mine somehow met somebody involved with the show, or something -- he said Adam's segment was going to be taped live. This was... yesterday. I guess it's worth a shot. I still feel like I should wish him luck if he's leaving.

By the way, to whomever mentioned the torrent: I downloaded it, extracted the files, burned it, did the whole nine yards, and the quality is horrible. The video is very fuzzy and grainy. I have seen the movie three times, so I don't exactly feel guilty about downloading it. However, it's not worth your time.

I thought we could all use some amusement this morning. Someone posted this on livejournal:

Ok, so... I think Adam Pascal is amazing, both in ability and looks. But there are a couple things about his looks that I just wonder about, now that I've seen him so close up in the movie... First off, he has such dark eyelashes compared to his blonde hair and eyebrows; it looks like he's wearing mascara all the time. In the movie, I could understand, but what about offscreen/stage? And then... something about his nose/upper lip bothers me a little bit... I realized it reminded me of Michael Jackson. Oh, what an insinuation, y'all are going to kill me! *hides*

they're so ridiculously funny over there with all the newbies with random questions

---

they're all like "I've been a RENThead since the movie came out!!!! Like what, 2 weeks ago? Sometimes it's just too funny. At least I find it amusing, not obnoxious. As long as I don't have to answer the same question 10 times, I'm fine.

---

Any time I remotely feel like a stupid newbie, I just go look at some of the LJ posts and I suddenly feel a lot better about myself.

---

LOL

haha...i love newbies on LJ too ...but Michael Jackson?? WHAA?

---

Really? I thought he looked kind of bad in "Your Eyes." Anytime you put a camera a couple inches away from someone's face, that person is bound to look kind of... not too great. My friend, a film major, was explaining the entire "Your Eyes" sequence in more detail and describing why it should have been filmed differently. He loved the movie overall, though.

his eyelashes are beautiful! i think he looked good in YOUR EYES, but i always think he looks good

No Tony Danza appearance? I was so looking forward to that. Could Emcee's friend-who-knows-someone-involved find out more?

Em, basically it's the total number of copies each album has sold in the US since the release date, according to Soundscan's data. However, keep in mind that while the vast majority of retailers report their sales data to Soundscan, there are a few that don't, and sales through record clubs are usually not counted.

---

Yeah, me too. Online sales were apparently really high, though.

---

I know that Soundscan does track Internet retailers and digital download services (again, most but not all). In addition to the Billboard 200 (which counts sales from every retailer Soundscan tracks), there are also separate charts in the print edition of Billboard that track the top sellers across Internet retailers and digital download services, and when a chart-topping album derives an unusually high percentage of its sales from one or both of these outlets, there might be mention made of it in the magazine.

Sorry for the slightly long-winded response. As you might have guessed from my username, following the Billboard charts is one of my hobbies.
