Meeting Hawkeye… I mean Alex Cross… No Wait Bourne Legacy Star Jeremy Renner! And Surviving The Chaotic MADNESS! Autographs! Photos and More!
You know, there are those times when you just can only do what you can do. Lol… and today… Today is one of those days. None other than Hawkeye, I mean, Aaron Cross… No wait, Jeremy Renner! That’s it! Yeah… Anyway, Jeremy is out and about promoting the hell out of the reboot for the Bourne franchise The Bourne Legacy. He’s doing a talk show and against my better judgement I’m heading out to try and meet him. Doh!
7:08 p.m. – I just arrived and it’s already chaos. I mean there are probably 50 people here. The times they are a changing.
7:11 p.m. – I only have a couple things, the new Esquire magazine and a Bourne Legacy mini poster which of course I need in silver. That should be easy… Riiiiiiight.
7:15 p.m. – Billy Beer is here, I think he got here at like 3:00 or some bit of crazy. I like Jeremy Renner but thank Jesus I got all of my Avengers stuff done during the premiere earlier this year. However, I’m excited to see this take on the Jason Bourne saga so God willing it will be kick ass.
7:24 p.m. – I’m expecting to get clobbered by crap. I’m at the end of the barricade but at least the people on this side are nice, lol…
7:34 p.m. – I think the show is about to end. Well, at least this segment…
7:45 p.m. – Oh, is something happening… Ummm I dunno…
7:57 p.m. – And there he is!
Everyone is calling out for him.
He’s not waving or anything and it looks like he’s heading towards the door…. Oh crap… Wait… Wait… He’s coming over!
And then the madness… People are going nuts! There’s pushing, I can’t even see Jeremy Renner! “It’s like addness, pure and udder addness!” (sorry I had to quote Big Bang Theory!) Jeremy rounds the corner and I can’t even get my crap out there for him to see it. I feel like a pig at a trough… It’s ridiculous! Ugh…
7:58 p.m. – Jeremy skips around and I’m running to the other side now, and I get slammed up against the fence… Dude, seriously does this guy sell for that much on eBay?
Again, I get the shaft. I run to the actual fence and see Jeremy run over there to sign.
I say, “Jeremy, Brother would you mind signing the poster in silver?” He’s like “sure.” He takes the silver signs my poster and then I think he signs a few more, hell if I can tell and then says, “here man!” He hands the silver pen back, I thank him and he was off…
I feel like I went through war… Good Lord… At least the poster got signed and he was cool enough to switch to silver but man, that was crazy. I like the low key events man, I have to tell ya. It was really cool of Jeremy to come over and do that, and go through the madness lol… Wow…
And thanks to CB for one photo where you can actually see Jeremy and not the sea of photos.
Until next time kids…

1Hawkeye… I mean Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol Star Jeremy Renner Covers The New Issue Of Details Magazine! The Avengers Are Coming!
Just plain retarded if you ask me. Why do people continue to come out just to get umptenth multiples? If say, you got this guy at his last rackfest at the Avengers premiere or at the last Spirit Awards for god sake stay home and let the few who didn’t get him have a better chance. Stay home and do something benificial with your life! Man, I HATE DEALERS TO A TEE!
Renner didn’t sign at the Spirit awards, and he didn’t “rack” at the avengers he signed two for me, which is really all I had at the time. I wanted to get him on my Bourne mini poster before it gets even crazier to get him. Which I fear is coming judging from this!
Yeah at soon as he walked over it became a madhouse! everyone, especially the shorter people got pushed around and lost in the crowd of aggressive dealers with all their pictures of Jeremy, most were him as Hawkeye, some bourne, and i saw one hurtlocker. And its the same dealers all the time, didn’t see red bull surprisingly, he must of been at some other event. I wanted to get a picture but got swarmed by the dealers. I think Jeremy only did 2 pictures that i saw with the section on the side, and pretty much a lot of people even had trouble taking pictures of the guy. I like to set up where the barricade goes down the alley in single file line better, i think its more efficient that was and less chaos.
Billy Beer’s car is broken down, so Billy Beer gets there whenever his ride gets there. Billy Beer also likes to talk in 3rd person 🙂
Thank goodness I got Jeremy before he was famous. I’ve been a BIG fan since he was on a reality show called “The It Factor” that followed around up and coming LA actors. Yup. It existed, but good luck finding it. I met him when The Hurt Locker came out. I told him I’ve been a fan since then. I’ve got a nice full signature, “To Susan, Thanks, Jeremy Renner”. I must get to Joel Edgerton before this type of madness happens!!
Mike I beg to differ. He did sign at the Spirits for I got two signatures and IF you would have been at the start of the carpet for the Avengers premiere he DID rack alot. He stayed in my area for a good 5 minutes! Maybe when he got towards your section he was moving a lot quicker.
Woops! I take back partialy what I said. I get my events and signings confused sometimes. Mike you are right. Renner was on the guest list to be at the Spirits BUT he was a no show. However I stand by what I said about him at the Avengers premiere.
Figured it would be madness that’s why I stayed hom. By any chance did Aaron Paul sign?
Aaron Paul signed a little real quick before he went in. Some people waited after but I don’t know of he signed on the way out. I left shortly after Renner left.
JOHN – AREN’T YOU A DEALER, AS WELL? I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CONSTANTLY RAG ON DEALERS WHEN I’VE SEEN YOU RACK PLENTY OF CELEBS WHILE TRADING AUTOGRAPHS WITH OTHER KNOWN DEALERS. THIS IS A FAN SITE AND WHILE YOU MIGHT BE A FAN, AS WELL, I THINK WE ALL KNOW THE TRUTH. YOUR SAME SONG AND DANCE AND ALWAYS TRYING TO “ONE UP” MIKE IS GETTING A LITTLE OLD.
Amen, Curious!!!
Those autographs of Jeremy Renner that were obtained at kimmel are going for $250+ on ebay.
no way! I’ve looked him up and he was only selling for 49.99! I can’t believe anyone would pay 250 for him! LOL
yeah and i saw some for like 275! i checked ebay today and the signed posters are the same ones i saw the dealers have at kimmel and on their ebay listings they even say it was obtained at kimmel with some proof of pictures. The 8×10 are cheaper and go for around $40-80. I even saw mila kunis going for $250-300 that said that it was obtained at the ted premiere. But yeah no way would i ever pay that ridiculous amount for a signed photo. And that is why the dealers are so aggressive in getting their photos signed and are the first ones on the spot.
here’s an example of what i was talking about….
Yeah, that’s buy it now and honestly that’s an asking price. You should look at completed listings. I took the URL off, because I would rather not promote people selling stuff. Not that you were but the less that people sell the better.
Aaron signed afterwards too. He stayed for the Nas concert, then came over and only signed like 10 autographs before he left. I ran over to see if he would roll down cause I didn’t get anything from him, not only did he stay in his car and sign a BUNCH, he threw out the little bags of meth (blue rock candy) to everyone. Really cool from the car. Got both my pictures signed there.
