December 15, 2013 - Details on Justin Bieber's Believe premiere, tickets, etc.

I tweeted a link for tickets to attend Justin Bieber's Believe and was overwhelmed by passionate Beliebers!  Thought it might be a good idea to lay out all the details here, instead of typing the same thing to people over and over with little space to go into detail.

Justin Bieber's Believe premiere is taking place at Regal Cinemas L.A. LIVE Stadium 14 on December 18th.  Justin Bieber and many other celebrities are scheduled to begin arriving at 5:30 p.m.  The Regal Cinemas L.A. LIVE Stadium 14 is located at 1000 West Olympic Boulevard in Los Angeles.  Directions can be found here.

Here's details for those who would like to attend:

The first step is signing up for a free account at Gofobo.com (it's quick and easy).  Every second counts and tickets often go fast, so you don't want to waste time setting up an account if more tickets free up.  Keep an eye on this link.  Tickets are gone, but more may free up.  From past experience, tickets go quickly (these took an hour to deplete) and more tickets often free up the day of and/or day of the premiere.  Even if you get tickets, tickets don't guarantee entry.  Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, so it's still important to arrive early.  If you get tickets and arrive an hour or 2 before the premiere, you probably won't be getting in.  The tickets are also printable, so make sure you have access to a printer.

The next step is to keep an eye on GetScreeningCA (GetScreening.com for those who aren't on Twitter) and CAScreenings.  They're the best accounts for posting screenings and premieres and are the only movie screening accounts I recommend.  They may post new links, so it's important to keep an eye on them.  You can also set up for text or e-mail notification when tickets are posted.  The one negative is, they probably won't mention they're premiere tickets, so you're going to have to click the link to make sure.

If you still don't have tickets as we get closer to the premiere, there's still hope.  BelieveMovie have some contests to win tickets and some tickets will be given out at the premiere.  Bleachers will also be set up in front of the theater and open at 10:00 a.m. for fans without tickets.

Special thanks to Belieber Irene H. and many of Justin's fans for their love and support!

July 29, 2013 - Clearing up some of the rumors about my Twitter suspension and other issues

    Hello everyone!  Haven't blogged for a few months, but I have a few things to get off my chest.

    I was in the middle of answering some messages on Twitter on July 26th when my account was suddenly suspended.  Never had any warnings and the suspension came out of the blue.  I wasn't given a reason or told when my account would be back up.  Since then, I've written Twitter and I'm still waiting for a response on to what the issue is or when my account would be back up.  IF I did something wrong, I feel an e-mail notifying me would have been appropriate and I would have made an effort to correct the issue.

    Since my suspension I've seen a leech (don't be fooled by the panda avatar or the nice guy persona) attack my character and spread lies.  First, a little backstory as things aren't always as they seem.  This person had 83 followers before I started retweeting and recommending his account at the time.  As a result, he picked up hundreds of  "followers."  This user presented himself as a friend, posted movie tickets and I was happy to help.  However, once he got those hundreds of Twitter users to add his account, I found out he wasn't a friend at all.  A few mutual friends had told me some troubling things about him, how he would badmouth me and my account and he had also started to act differently.  Since then, he has also posted some things I certainly wouldn't want to be associated with, so I blocked his account and many of his friends a few months ago.

    You'd think someone would be a little more respectful and grateful after what I did for him, but he has taken to attacking me and my character on his account.  He claims I was doing "illegal" and "bad" things on Twitter, even going so far as tweeting to some who weren't even addressing or following him.  Twitter has some silly rules in my view (you can't block too many people for instance), but I can assure you I never did anything illegal.  I stopped talking to and promoting this account months ago and I intend on keeping it that way.  He already has a big ego and didn't want to give him what he wants (attention), but when you spread vicious lies I have to respond.  Live and learn.

    Also, saw someone on Twitter claiming to be me with a new account on Twitter.  HollywoodHelper is the only account I have on Twitter and I won't be creating a new one.  Some also thought I blocked them.  When my account was suspended on Friday, Twitter automatically removed all the people I was following and all the people who had added me.  If/when my account is reinstated all of you will be added back.

    Until I return, I'd like to recommend a few accounts other for free movie screening and premiere passes.  GetScreening.com (@GetScreeningCA on Twitter), TxtMovieClub.com and AdvanceScreenings.com (@CAScreenings on Twitter) are all great resources for local and national screenings.  90% of the screenings (probably more than my estimate) originate from these accounts.  Set up for their e-mail notification and you'll always be the first to know.  Their accounts also focus on posting great information, so you won't have to worry about being offended by inappropriate content, pictures of pandas, commentary on world events, "comedy," their sex lives, etc.  If you sign up for movie screenings it feels like bait and switch when you get the other garbage.

    I prefer keeping things fun and positive and avoiding the drama.  This time I got sucked in by the negativity.  Sorry.  Won't be addressing this person anymore.  Hope you're all doing well and I'll be able to talk to you soon!  

Update:  My account is back up and running on Twitter today!  Good to be back!

March 31, 2013 - Update on the blog and my Twitter account

I wanted to update you all on this blog and my Twitter account.  I really love posting local events, helping many of you get tickets to events and I've really come to love and care about many of you.  Your sweet messages always uplift me.

Doing the blog allows me to take my mind off some of the more difficult issues I'm dealing with and have an escape.  I've been unemployed a few years now, it's not easy finding work to begin with, let alone being out of work for a few years.  I've started to feel helpless and hopeless.  I've ran through most of my savings (no government help) and now I find myself in a very difficult situation.  There's other issues as well, some foreseen and some unforeseen.

I don't like being a downer, so I don't take joy in having to post this message.  Unfortunately, the blog and my Twitter account are both going to have to take a hiatus.  My hope is I'll be able to get the blog back up and running in a month or two.  I still have some messages that will launch reminding people of some events like Shark Lagoon Nights on Saturdays, but I probably won't be posting many (if any) new events.

Normally, I wouldn't want to post a message like this, but I didn't want to just leave without saying anything.  Many who I've come to know have really lifted my spirits with their messages and support.  Thank you all!  Hope to be back soon.

Blessings to you all,
Casey
