John Cusack screening High Fidelity in Waukee

[NorthCyd]

I would love to know how he picked that movie for central Iowa, and why he's coming to Iowa at all, but it's pretty cool. I think Grosse Pointe Blank is my favorite John Cusack film, but High Fidelity is up there.

Better Off Dead is my Cusack favorite.

The Sure Thing

I do know somebody that knows his sister quite well. She's supposed to be a really great person. This person has met John a couple of times and thinks he comes off as a pretentious greaseball.

This being said, except for 2012, I've liked his characters in the movies I've seen.

Eight Men Out
Being John Malkovich

Gross Pointe Blank

I can't include his fairly insignificant roles in Sixteen Candles and The Thin Red Line.

High Fidelity is one of my favorite movies. His character's experience and approach to past relationships pretty much sums up my experience.

I have heard that, too

I would rather watch Better off Dead with him. One of the best movies ever.

what, no 1408 fans in here

So, what is this? Does he get up and talk about the film before they show it? Does he do a meet and greet? Will he sit by you and share popcorn during the film if you win a drawing?

I need to watch something like Eight Men Out as an adult. I only saw it as a kid and it's certainly not the popcorn type that Field of Dreams is but is probably a really good actual film.

Went on the Live Nation site to see how much tickets are going for this out of curiousity. There are no prices listed which I will take as a bad sign. Mrs. Velo is a big Cusak fan so it would be a nice surprise for her, but I'm not into taking out a second mortgage for this.

If anyone gets into the presale kindly let me know what you find for a range.

He doesn't share his food but he will let you sit there and watch him eat...

All I know is what's in the link.

Just found the Minneapolis event and the range is $91-277 for that one. Note that in Minnesota they are required to list all-in pricing so that is including all fees.

There are some other options in the MInneapolis show. I don't know if these are all venue options or if they entail some sort of additional artist access.
