Gonna go see Michael Jai White

This will be my second time attending the urban action expo. Last year, went to go see Taimak, had no idea Michael Jai white would be attending this one. Sure as hell am going to go and get to meet him. Huge part of my life, and he doesn't know it. Saw Spawn back in the good ol days of VHS. Yep, that was my introduction to him. Obsessed with that movie for a long time afterwards. It's a good film, with heart, great story. Don't understand the backlash to it beyond it being a watered down version of the much more gory comics and HBO series.

What to say to him... First of all, thank you for making my childhood awesome. What's he expect to see happen in Spawn reboot, can it work? What's his thoughts on returning for a cameo, a deserved one at that...

So many questions I have for him as a sorta martial artist myself and as a guy trying to get into film making....

Where else do I know him from? I was there when that assfest Universal Soldier the Return came out. I was so hyped for that back then. I was like OMG awesome, then I watched the thing...

I guess I can ask him about his thoughts on that film, what he wanted it to be vs what it was...

But mainly spawn questions. Will we see Spawn fight Blade? Would he take over Blade for Wesley? Who'd win in a fight?

I'm just, it's on man. I'll probably be the biggest Spawn nerd at the expo on the 11th... I will be attending, it's just yeah I'm nervous about it. All these celebs are kinda a giant scary creature when they're not really that way in person, just people, but still sends chills up the backbone wondering about being face to face with someone you've merely watched in epic amazing films....

I mean let me set the stage. I watched spawn a thousand times back to back just to bask in the film again and again when I was a little bastard. It was just mind blowing film making... mind freaking blowing to see that much cool shit. I was floored. I don't care what people say about it, it was just a joy that film.
