Webmasters Night Out!
Posted by John Campeaon 10. 09. 2007in Features
Hey guys. Just thought I’d share this with you. Since I live like 40 minutes from Toronto, and the Toronto International Film Festival is going on right now… and since that means a bunch of movie website people that i communicate with were going to be in town, I decided to grab a limo for the night and get all of us Movie Web geeks out for a fun evening of just hanging around, drinking, and partying it up.
Those who came along with us Movie Blog people were:
The amazing Jennifer Yamato and Alex from Rotten Tomatoes
The fighter of evil Scott Weinberg of Cinematical
The Always ready to party Alex Billington of Firstshowing
The indomitable Peter Sciretta of Slashfilm
The Omniscient Michael of MoviesOnline
Part of the night we just spent driving around and hanging out, but we were also spent a good part of the night at “The Film Lounge Presented by Variety & AMC” and apparently the AFI, party in Toronto at the W Studio. The hosts were wonderful, the party was kickin, the drinks were flowing, the girls were hot, the stars were there (listed were Jessica Alba, Monica Bellucci, Laura Linney Philip, Seymour Hoffman, Neil Jordan, Beverly Mitchell, Andre Benjamin, Ellen Page, Eric Bana, Josh Brolin, Sarah Polley, Terence Howard, and Tommy Lee Jones).
We had a lot of fun, and I thought, since this is a blog, I’d share some of the pics with you guys:
The Movie Blog Crew at the party (John, Serena and Doug)
Serena and Naghmeh in the Limo (what guy wouldn’t want to be in there too?)

Seriously guys… the more and more I get to know the other members of the online movie community, the more and more I feel privileged to be one of them. These folks are just so cool, not an ounce of competitiveness in any of them, and we really seem to just enjoy each other’s writing and sites, and always being willing to help each other out. It is a wonderful community and I can honestly say I really like all these guys. Thanks for letting me share the shots with you.

Those are wicked pics! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. See, that’s why I love this site so much, that you share stuff like this. I feel like I get to actually know you guys. So cool! Take me next time!
ps. who is naghmeh?
I never thought I’d see Doug dressed up like that! That picture of Alex and Peter on the dance floor is killer!
Serena is hella cute in them pics!!!!
I’m insanely jealous.
:-)
Glad you guys are having fun!
Vic
What a celebration of friendship!
I imagine if the limo transformed into an Autobot then it would be John’s ultimate night out.
Holy shit son! Serena and the Naghmeh girl are HOT! Is Naghmeh a new writer on TMB? Can I give her my phone number?
Doug looks like a goddamn serial killer in the first pic:)
Christ campea, you’re actually one handsome devil! Yummy.
holy balls
serena has a banging body. especially in the trunk area
Its nice to hang out with other webmasters. John and I have known each other awhile now and its always fun to hang out and have good times. Just started to get to know Serena who is equally cool and Doug well its Doug.. how can you not like Doug?
By far the funniest part of the night was Alex screaming out of the limo that we had Brad Pitt in the limo. I just about cried I was laughing so hard. It was great to meet up with a few people I had not met before and have a good night on the town. Us bloggers really do need to get together more.
I can confirm that the ladies Naghmeh and Serena are both very lovely in looks and personality and for those asking Naghmeh is spoken for, right John? :)
Looks like you all are having a great time and yes as others have mentioned before Serena looks very pretty. Doug does look like he is about to do something evil in the first picture.
Wait a second. Campea is dating HER? That’s can’t be right. I thought there was some sort of law prohibiting movie nerds from getting chick that hot?
Naghmeh and Serena…why, why, why is the Rod Stewart song ‘Hot Legs” keep playing in my brain? I don’t even have it playing on iTunes right now!
Oh, and Doug’s mug looks a lot better than it normally does in past photos. For what it’s worth…
But if Serena came to Michigan, she’d have a hot date, and a possible marriage proposal shortly thereafter. Not from me, though, I’m after Jessica Alba, of course…;)
Follow uP;
The photo with Naghmeh and Serena ready to go out on the town. That pic of Serena kinda creeped me out. In the pic she kind of looks like my sister Paula.
:(
Maybe it’s just the way the lighting…
(seriously, the pic reminds me of my sister. I’m not kidding. Go to myspace profile, friends list, first row)
Where’s the obligatory sniffing-coke-out-of-a-hooker’s-ass picture? And here I thought you guys knew how to party!
Gio, you’re one lucky guy to be around two beautiful women.
Now as far as Naghmeh, she’s hot – don’t screw it up. Watch your temper.
Naghmeh is John’s girl? If so Holy shit you give me hope john.
WHOA!
THAT is Campea’s girlfriend?! WOW, she’s pretty,man!
Yep thats John’s gf. John is one lucky dude!!!
I wish I was John Campea :D
John and friends are getting closer and closer to Hollywood! Looked like loads of fun John!
