holy crap.

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind.
Premiere after premiere, flying on planes to different ends of the Earth.
A SPECTACULAR OPENING WEEKEND.

Things have been fantastic.
Thanks for making it huge.

The movie is out pretty much everywhere now. My ass is unbelievably tired but it's been worth it.
And the great weekend the movie had is cause for celebration -- some time off maybe?

Shia's 23.

Or he will be rather in like 4 hours.

We're here in Los Angeles, just having one of those fantastic nights with good food and even better friends.

And just in case you were wondering...
TF2 PREMIERE IN JAPAN = AMAZING.
We had way too much fun there with Bay, but everyone understands that it'll be nothing compared to the fun we'll have here at home when we show it to you guys...

So I realize that I blog here but I don't twitter...weird. That might change soon, fyi.


Oh, and I'm sort of sick, like under the weather sick. I've felt like crap since we got home, but I'm sucking it up for the next two days because stuff is going down. Like awesome stuff, party stuff that no one is going to hear about...except on here...maybe?


If I have time, I'll be sure to tell you about all of the mayhem. But now, I have to go. I'm being practically drug around the house in search of more booze. It's not like I don't know where it is though...oh the perks of being 23...

23.

It's my birthday today. Or it was rather, depending on where you are.

23 is now the magic number.

I didn't really celebrate. I just worked, which was nice. It was just like any other ordinary day. I'm thinking that after Shia's birthday in a couple of weeks we'll have some major TF2 blowout spectacular. Wouldn't THAT be an awesome sight?

on set.

first of all, let's just say that Louisiana is fantastic.

in case you didn't know, i'm down here filming Jonah Hex (August 2010 release date on this one) and we're having a blast. i'm working with some pretty heavy hitters down here -- Josh Brolin, John Malkovich and Will Arnett to name some. it's actually been really relaxed and chill on-set. everything's going fantastic and hopefully it will stay on schedule. i know all too well from being on set with Bay that sometimes things get behind schedule all of a sudden, and with this one it really can't happen.

i'm supposed to be done filming on time to do press for TF2. so it's kind of stressful to make sure that i don't cause any delays...oh my life. so far it's great like i said. but shooting just recently started, so where it goes from here is up in the air.

so it's nearly 2 in the morning here in New Orleans and i have to be up, ready and on-set by 730am. good luck with that one, right?


just wanted to post to say hi.


HI.

oh wow.

it's been a little over two months since i've posted on this thing. a LOT has happened since then, as i'm sure you've heard.

*tf2 release date was moved up by 2 days. we're talking june 24th now, not the 26th.
*taking some time off right now to really relax and chill. it's something that i've needed for a very long time.
*jennifer's body release date: september 18. it's official now. good thing press events won't overlap, otherwise i might've gone crazy.
*tf3 - if and when it does happen - won't hit theaters until 2012. i don't know details though -- i guess bay's just busy.
*last one. not engaged anymore. that's all we'll say about that one.


i never took that vacation that i thought about taking a while back. i'm seriously thinking about doing it now. maybe meeting up with some friends in vancouver. sounds fun, right?

I DID forget this.

To all of you out there who are wondering whether or not the rumors are true, here's the official answer for you.

"NO."

That's the answer.

I will NOT be taking over Angelina Jolie's role in the Tomb Raider franchise.

I don't know why people automatically jump to the conclusion that I am. Just because I look like her doesn't mean I'll take a role.

And P.S. -- they haven't even offered HER the role yet. So why would they come to me first? As far as anyone is concerned, she IS Lara Croft. End of story.

I almost forgot this...

Just in case you've been living under a rock -- or if you haven't been to your local movie theater in a while -- here's the teaser poster.
