The Movie "BIG FAN" and Aaron Eackhart on Tonight Show talks Autographs

I saw a preview of the movie "Big Fan" which stars one of the best stand-up comedians working today -- Patton Oswald. He tones down the funny in this serious role of a sad-sack sports fan.

Since he's a huge fan of the New York Giants, there are a few scenes that talk briefly about autographs. One includes them seeing their favorite player at a gas station (and they follow him to a strip club). One wishes he had a Sharpie. The other suggests they follow him into the bathroom, since he's at a table with an entire entourage, and they feel that would be an easier approach.

I got home from the movie (which was good, but not as great as some of the critics would lead you to believe)...and I turn on The Tonight Show. Aaron Eackhart was talking about visiting the troops, and he mentioned signing lots of autographs and taking pictures. One table had soldiers that weren't coming over. He found out later they were "special forces" or some such thing.

He approached them and said "What's a matter? You guys don't want autographs and pictures?"

He said he had his Sharpie ready, and they all just laughed.

Nice to know he's good about signing. Of course, that's for soldiers fighting a war. Who knows how he'll be coming out of Wolfgang Puck's!
