• Without any hesitation it would be Sir Christopher Lee. Of course we would have two comfortable lounge chairs in the bar from the film, 'The Return of Captain Invincible' Harley

• That must have been very cool - I'm very jealous of you right now! From what I've seen/read of him, he seems to be a genuinely nice person.

• No Shinji needs to get laid! Problem is he'd probably logic his way out of it.

• Tolkien. Tolkien, Tolkien, Tolkien. That is all.

• I am just now reading this so i don't know if this has yet been addressed. But I met him once and we was very very nice, asked me what I did and when I said I was an artist he talked to me about art for a few minutes. then he posed for a big group picture. Maybe that isn't the treatment other fans have gotten? or maybe it helps if you are a shy, polite high-school girl?

• Last fucking minute OMFG!!!! Stephen King. Nobody has warped my mind in such a cool (and irrevocable!) way, EVER. Like King. I read The Stand when I was probably 10-11 and never looked at the world the same way again- my innocence and faith in the goodness of the world were destroyed with that book- and I LIKED IT! That, and the Dark Tower series. Fuck yes.

• Gene Roddenberry off the top of my head. Also, seriously Rob, at least watch the first episode of Stargate SG1. Hulu has ALL of the episodes online... What more do you need?!

• Does the Lord count?

• Simon Pegg. He's made his geekhood rather obvious...I mean for christ sake, there's a photo of him floating around being held hostage by Stormtroopers. And he's as big of a Romero fan as I am, so we'd have plenty to talk about. And he was bloody brilliant in Spaced. My second choice would be Neil Gaiman. He's a genius and has contributed to my geekdom over the years. Not to mention, he's dating Amanda Palmer. And I'd love to hear stories about her. For hours.

• The whole lot of course! But I'd take Dwight Schulz if I had to choose as well.

• A Muppet would make the best drinking partner. you never know what they will do next.

• He also loves fine antiques and alternate transportation. Seconded.

• Runner-up, George Takei. THE VOICE!!!

• Just do Jack Kirby instead. Way more fun.

• I've actually hung out with him, although it was in a sunny beach house in the Hamptons rather than trapped somewhere snowed in. He's incredibly friendly and considerate, and very well-read. Great, great human being.

• Bill Watterson. With a good supply of pens and bar napkins I'd ask him to continue drawing Calvin & Hobbes. I'd also try to presuade him to come out of hiding and create more comic strips professionally.

• I know this is too late but I'm in fucking India so cut me some slack. I'd pick Sigourney Weaver. That way I could tell her I love her other work but couldn't bring myself to see <i>Avatar.</i> I realized that most of the first things I pirated from Usenet (and still have on my computer) involve her in some way. <i>Aliens, Ghostbusters, </i>and "Planet Earth" would all be on my laptop, and I'd play them on mute and make her read her lines out loud. Sigourney Weaver is a motherfucking G.

• Real - Orson Scott Card Getting to chat with him about the Ender universe could certainly entertain me for a few days, plus he I really enjoyed his run on the Ultimate Iron Man comics. Fictional - Guy Gardner He's a Douchebag and he's entrusted with one of the most powerful weapons in the universe, plus it would just be fun to hear him bitch about Hal Jordan and the Guardians.

• My choice would definitely be Boris Karloff. From everything I've read about him, he just seems like he'd be a wonderful man. Plus, his voice is so pleasant that he would soothe my claustrophobia. Also, I would finally be able to hear all about his relationship with Bela Lugosi. Did Lugosi really treat him as a rival, or were they friends? Did they ever team up to fight real monsters in their spare time? Because I'd like to think they did. In fact, I'd use my conversations with him as the basis for a kickass book about their adventures.

• This one is easy, Sigmund Freud. After he tells me everything I've ever thought or desired is related to violent thoughts, sex, or good old homo-eroticism, he will then proceed to do the same thing with everyone else in the room in between snuffs of cocaine. I would find it hilarious and then proceed to do it all over again another night. Drinking with a coke addled insane man who relates everything back to violence or sex would be hilarious in my book, especially once other people agree and proceed to curl into a ball because of it.

• Echiiro Oda, the creator of One Piece. Consider the crazy shit that man comes up with for his manga while sober, the stuff that would come up while drunk would be... to awsome for words. Plus we both like huge boobs, so there is much common ground

• Acually I take that back, I'll just have Morgan Freeman's voice.

• I would have to say Morgan Freeman, on top of being a brilliant actor he comes across as an interesting guy as well. However I think that the real clincher is that voice. Who needs working genetalia with a voice like that.

• I'd have a blast having drinks with Rob Bricken

• Damn, dude. This contest's results won't be out til Friday. I'll say Burt Reynolds

• I'm going for broke with mine. I want to drink with both James Doohan and Simon Pegg BOTH playing Scotty. We would burn down every single bar on Rigel 7!

• The Doctor. From Doctor Who. Tennant.

• Jor-El. And I would spend all three days trying to get him to do the Godfather voice. Then (time permitting) I would ask some questions about the nature of the universe.

• What?

• Jane Goodall, hands down The woman is remarkable. Vast inelligence, sharp wit, wise, passionate, compassionate, driven, worldly, and just the right type and amount of crazy to put her among the greats. I would love to pick her brain on social constructs in primate, and maybe if we get really smashed we can pick parasites out of each other's hair. Yes, I'd put parasites on my head to be picked out by drunk Jane Goodall. And a drinking contest is a must. But before then, what I'd love to hear is her take on how primate social development gave rise to the earliest proto-cultures and their residual remnants in universally accepted standards of morality, and some select sub-cultures. Furthermre, I'd like to hear from the biological perspective about the role that those social norms we evoked and have been conditioned to adhere to play on the internet wherein, through anonymity, one is free from substantive social sanctions. There are a thousand and one other topics I'd want to broach too, but I'll save them for after we finish playing with the baby chimps.

• My pick is a man whose nerdery has reached such heights that is it questionable as to whether or not he stood in this plane of existence; Rod Serling. We would unlock doors into the imagination beyond which is another dimension; a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. We would move into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. Our drunken stupor would throw us into.... The Twilight Zone!

• The answer is simple. I would choose Kevin Bacon so I can use myself in the Six Degrees game, which might be the nerdiest reason of all.

• Frank Morrison Spillane or better known as Mickey Spillane, the father of Mike hammer, the original hard boiled detective. The man started his career writing for golden age Superman, Batman, Captain Marvel, and Captain America and then fought in World War 2 as a fighter pilot. One of his first jobs was working as a trampoline artist at the circus. It would be awesome to drink with this guy, cause when he gets really plastered he'll run his stories in such a magnificent mess you can't help help but be entertained. Imagine hearing an old Mickey say, "I gave Batman his detective skills, but they wouldn't let me write him going to bars and picking up hookers. They never give me credit for the flying graysons. Fuck bob krane."

• OH NO WAIT CANCEL ALL THAT. It would have to Milo Ventimiglia... Ventimigla... W/E. SO I CAN SPEND ALL NIGHT PUNCHING HIS DOUCHEY FACE IN. And then spend a couple of hours thinking up "Your face is so douchey" jokes, and then I'd break for tea, and then continue to pummel and mock his face. DEAR LORD I HATE THAT MAN'S FACE.

• When I first read about this contest I automatically knew I would choose Terry Pratchett, the author of Discworld, to drink with. Then I started to think about it: Terry Prachett is a writer, we would be snowed in for three days, and I am a female nerd with poor people skills... This could only end like the movie Misery. It would start out innocently enough and I would show him my pig Sam Vimes, but one thing would lead to another and by Sunday afternoon I will be hobbling Terry Pratchett with a block of wood and a sledgehammer.

• Oh christ. Other then my wham bam first choice automatically being Sn00dle, (my love, HAI BB YEAH IT'S ME [/waves]) and then there would be Jezza. Jeremy Clarkson, a host from Top Gear. Entertaining guy, I could just sit there and watch him talk. Just ask him questions like "What's the worst thing that's happened to Hammond on TG other then the faceplanting into the dirt at 400 mph?" I won't even start on questions for Jezza because I've got list about a mile long. Karl Urban, because he's been in so much of my favorite movies, I'd ask him about how it was like on the sets, how he picked his roles... Eric Kripke, lord. Srsly, I could pick his brain ALL night about spn. And I would. Just ask him about everything but keep him from telling me about the end of the series. I would fire my theories at him about where the series is going but he would just smile with a twinkle in his eye... Well that's four isn't it? Damn.

• There are two people I can think of that I would like to sit down to drinks with. Actors Terry O'Quinn and Lance Henrikson. These two men are two of my favorite actors. Do you have any idead how many nerdy movies Lance Henrikson has been in? Have you seen his filmography? He has been in a lot of movies and TV shows. My first exposure to Henrikson was Chris Carter's Millenium. I have now seen a great deal of the films he has appeared in but not all because there are still so many. I would love to sit down over drinks with him and just ask questions and let him talk about his career. I would ask him about all the actors and directors he has worked with. And this would lead eventually lead to me asking him aobut Terry O'Quinn so it would be even better if O'Quinn was there. Lance Henrikson and Terry O'Quinn starred together on Chris Carter's Millenium. Terry O'Quinn had a mustache back them. I would ask O'Quinn if he would ever consider bringing back his mustache because it was pretty great mustache he had. And of course I would ask Terry O'Quinn about Lost. I would tell him about my theory that the island is time travel fortress from so far in the future with such advanced technology it looks like magic to us and Jacob and his nemesis are the islands artificial intelligence life form programs that run the island and the reason they cannot attack each other directly is because they are both a part of the island and to harm the other would violate their programming. And I would ask Terry O'Quinn what it is like as an actor doing what he is now doing on Lost. He spent the last few years playing John Locke. Now he is playing a completely different character using Locke's form and he spent the last few episodes of last season playing that character pretending to be Locke. What kind of experience is that for him as and actor? Now there is a catch to all of this. Lance Henrikson and Terry O'Quinn would do all of the drinking. The thing is I do not drink, at all. I have only ever once tasted and alcoholic beverage and that was many years ago and I do not plan to have another any time soon. So I would like to sit down and talk with Lance Henrikson and Terry O'Quinn while they drink and I ask them questions and listen to what they have to say. Maybe if they get a little tipsy they will spill some really insteresting storys about people like James Cameron and Chris Carter or JJ Abrams or what was the deal with the cheese from that one episode of... Oh wait now I am thinking of a different showt that neither of them were on. Wierd how that happens.

• I would have to say JJ Abrams. Damn, that man has done some stuff. And he's only gonna get better. From Alias to Fringe to the reboot of Star Trek, man he's got it going on. I would love to sit down with him and chat.

• I know she was my answer in a previous contest, but I gotta go with Christina Hendricks. She's my first celebrity crush in a really long time, and I'm head-over-heels. And don't worry; there wouldn't be any "indiscretion", as I'd be too intimidated to even consider propositioning. C'mon. What's nerdier than an awkward dude too timid to approach a pretty girl? As for the evening, I'd plan for us to pour a few glasses of wine, settle down by the fire, and discuss Mad Men, Firefly, and character acting, as well as opinions on modern storytelling. After the storm had passed and the roads were fit to drive, I'd hail her a cab, escort her out, and thank her for the pleasure. (Hey, I'm a romantic. Sue me.)

• Ooooh, good one.

• Weird Al. We're both non-drinkers, which is a plus. We both look fairly non-threatening, so we're not going to have to worry about any bar fights. And, I mean, come on, we're certainly not going to be hit on by women anytime soon, and even then, we're both married. Why Al? The man has advanced ALL of nerd-dom in sooooo many ways. Music, movies, MTV videos, sold out arenas, the man has done it. He made being a nerd about as cool as it is going to get.

• Well, Stephen and Hugh have been taken, but either of them would be really cool. I would have to say out of those who are dead: Oscar Wilde or Frida Kahlo. Either of those is going to end in one hell of a story to tell. (Although if Oscar drinks Absinthe I don't want any, that stuff is fun but tastes like shit) Out of those living and not mentioned (I think) Roger Daltrey, who I have met EXTREMELY briefly.(after a show) He seems like he is generally a really nice guy and us some funny stuff about the band (I'd love to hear more stories about those days...he must have a ton about Keith)

• Adrian Edmonson, who played Vyvyan on The Young Ones. In character, he would be amazing to hang out with/drink with because he would most certaintly intentionally or inadverdently kill you and/or break your house. It would be entertaining.

• This took a couple of minutes to come up with, but I would probably go with Lorne Michaels. I mean, he is and has been one of the most prominent faces in the comedy industry. He's dealt with the biggest names in film, television and music for over three decades. The carers of probably half the highest grossing stars in that time period have come out of Saturday Night Live, under his production. I am pretty sure that he must have one or two or a hundred and eighty stories to tell.

• Frosty the snowman! I could shove a nice bottle of vodka up his whazzoo to keep it at nice chilled 40 degrees! Plus when I was done I'd melt his ass and keep the hat until I needed another cold drink... HAPPY BIRTHDAY... chilled vodka... melt... repeat! Fun for the whole family!

• Kevin Smith's great and I love what he's been doing even if I heard from various sources that he's an ass in person. Anyway, I actually wrote (in french) about dolphin sex lately and I think it's a real problem that I'd like to discuss further with "serious" folks. Just tell ben when Kevin's home please.

• Gotta agree with that! Clancy Brown is AWESOME! He also was that kickass character "Gunnar" from the Pathfinder movie.

• Ahh, but which one? I'd take Dwight Schulz. He's gotta have some good stories.

• Even though they were already mentioned, im going to have to go with the MST3K crew. Just so i can finally have my dream of getting drunk and making Mystery Porn Theater 3000. Im not saying just any type of porn though, i mean porn thats more like a horror/mystery porn. We'll probably just end up yelling, "Dont go in there!!!" a bunch of times.

• Doing the live-blog means you're not alone right? That's not really sad, right!?

• The first person I thought of was Kevin Smith. I've been listening to his podcasts for forever and the man does one hell of a commentary on his movies. He's MASTER of the conversation. I envision us snowed in watching TV box sets and stupid YouTube videos while we smoke pot and have conversations about ridiculous and extreme situations being taken WAY too far. I'm down for doing crazy Paris Hilton voices and talking about dolphin sex.

• I would have to go with John Williams as he has created some of my favorite movie music. Plus with as many awards and honors he has received over the years along with the people he has worked with I'm sure he'd have some interesting stories to tell. Most importantly though, if I got him drunk enough I just might be able to convince him to compose me my very own theme song and that would make the whole being snowed in issue completely worthwhile.

• I'm surprised nobody's said Newton or Einstein. it would be a little hard to chose between the two. with Einstein there are a lot of questions about thermodynamics I'd love to ask and I'd love to conspire with him against the forces of Quantum Mechanics :) with Newton, I'd love to know what he was up to with his alchemy. folks probably don't know it, Newton spent way more years and effort on occultist subjects like alchemy than physics. plus he was actually sort of nuts too. and those wigs...

• Stephenie Meyer. Really. For all these people being mentioned in the other comments, you can extract whatever information, curiosity, opinion you want by emailing them or interacting with their blogs, twitter, etc. But Stephenie needs a real alcohol-driven tete-a-tete charity drive on not screwing with the culture of current teens and vampire lore in general.

• He just seems like he would be a great guy to get drunk with. There would be plenty of conversation and fun to be had.

• Chewbacca would be my ultimate drinking buddy. As he has no woman problems, I don't have to worry about him getting sappy or touchy-feely. He isn't chatty. He can handle his own in a bar fight. Most importantly he can handle his liquor if Australians challenge us to a drinking contest. From six years in the Navy I have plenty of bar experience. Chewbacca is the guy I would want with me.

• I'd have to go with Roger Ebert, the subject of one of my bizarre, nerdy man crushes. I have ate up everything this guys written since I was a youngling. We both share a love for and extensive knowlege of cinema and thus will probably begin our time drinking while he shares his fondest memories and experiences from his extensive 40+ year career(hopfully after a couple of shots in him he will tell a saucy tale of a wild night out with Mel Brooks,Felleni,John Waters and Gene Wilder all packed into a small euro car cruising around the cannes red light district). After weve had more than a few rounds we will begin a movie marathon based on films weve selected in our slighly intoxicated state. The man's a brilliant film commantator, one cant help but wonder how badass his commenatary would be after hes got a good amount of scotch and rum in him. So we would spend our three days constantly liquored up, watching fine cinema(maybe switching in a Russ Meyer film or two)laughing, criticing, debating and generally having a hell of a time.

• Damn. This post has to win. Well done, sir.

• I do not understand what any of this means, or what language it's meant to be in, but it frightens me. This entry is a mix of two terrible evils: bad grammar and wonky mathematics. Also, incoherence. Make that three terrible evils.

• this would be awesome...if Bruce Campbell wasn't kind of a turd when dealing with fans. Sigh.

• Little Mary the hobbit. She sounds like a cutie.

• Alan Moore. Though, if I was in his presence, I doubt I could conjure anything coherent to say. I'm awed by his writing ability, he has written so many absolutely game-changing comic books, and...well look at him. He's frickin' Mountain Man Scary Looking!!! Intimidation central. But, even if I could only squeak out "I'm not worthy!" and cringe at his feet for the evening, at least I could say that I was in the presence of greatness.

• Mickey Rourke. we all know that guys a badass, he seems like a nice guy actually, and he could talk about the upcoming 'iron man'. and playing Marv. Oh, and we all know that dude's got a ton of demons just waiting to come out once liquor is applied. A night out of drinking with Mickey Rourke I think would test a person's fortitude, knowledge, booze tolerance and how to stop a guy from offing somebody with a claw hammer. Mickey Rourke. all the way. please Powers that Be make this happen

• i dunnno if someone said it already but homer simpson. duff beers on me. hes got some good stories to tell. plus when were both all sauced up that shit would be fun as hell! jazz to moon base 2!

• I'd love to come out with something truly and epically nerdy, but my mind didn't waste time before leaping to the same place it always does when people ask me these sorts of questions. Oscar Wilde. And it doesn't matter if we can't bang because he wouldn't be interested in me like that anyway, being a flaming homosexual and all. The two of us would spend the weekend drunk off our asses, trading witty banter, maybe working on some sort of play over the weekend. In the end, when we were shoveled out by the people who created zombie Oscar, and we are forced to part ways even though we would have become BFFs, he would casually toss off a comment about seeing me next season and a promise to write, even inviting me to the labratory he is being kept in the country side for a few weeks for some fresh air.

• The only person I want to be snowed in with is my husband, but he is at least little bit nerdy so I hope he counts. :)

• Mary and Pippin. They are hobbits so they knew both the best places to eat and drink and would always be up for going out for a pint. And what would that be like, better than everyones elses drinking buddy does h. P. Lovecraft get drunk and dance on the table singing junty songs? Sure Kevin smith can eat but which more fun when your drunk going through taco bell drive through listening to endless facts about greenarrow or stealing food from crazy old farmers in the dead of night. Plus Mary and pippen would be awesome wingmen, a vital quality most of you are forgetting - is Christopher lee going to let you get any or more likely take itall for himself and I am sure Christopher walkin would scare away women. Mary and pippin would prentice to me my kid - then I can use the single dad recently widowed ploy. Oh and the stories they could tell about the war of the ring and the fellowship. In closing I would choose Mary and pippin because they themselves are looking for a new drinking buddy now that frodo moved away and Sam settled down.

• Steve Jackson I guess. I played all his games drunk, so it wouldn´t be to much a stretch. Also I´m already waiting to be fully converted into a Munchkin monster card real soon.

• Clancy Brown. He's the kurgan for fuck's sake! and also the voice of lex luther. We could fake swordfight and plot the downfall of that annoying Kryptonian.

• but if you were drinking alone, people might think you had a problem...

• Also, Bear gave himself a saltwater enema on camera. His life wasn't really in danger, so why did he choose to scar me like that?

• My pick of who I would like to be trapped with would be... Nobody. Beacause I have such a high opinion of my heros that I think that the illusion would be shattered. To meet somebody for any length of time means to come to know them as a person. I don't want to know the person, I want the myth of them to live on in my head.

• Daniel Suarez author of Daemon. Dudes got some ideas...

• Bill Murray no question. Growing up I watched Ghostbusters over 150 times. Groundhog Day is now my second favorite holiday with required showings. The last few years he's beein more intriguing that ever from the roles he's taken to stories of him running up to people saying hello and telling them no one would ever believe it. Plus, we could play Ghostbusters for hours like on Zombieland.

• I see plenty of people multiple entries, so here are mine for Alive, Dead and fictional. First up, Bill Murray. Because, if there's one thing I learned from Zombieland, it's that he wont shy away from reenacting scenes from Ghostbusters with me. And then, once we're drunk enough, I could show him the badly written script for a third GB film I came up with in the ninth grade. And by "show" I mean very embarrassingly act the whole thing in front of him, obviously! He'd be just drunk enough to think it was brilliant, but as the alcohol get the better of us, and very luckily for the rest of the world I'm sure, he will have forgotten it by morning. As for dead, I'd go with Bob Kane, creator of Batman. So we can drink up while watching the films, see what he really thought of them. Get smashed out of our minds over the Schumacher "films" and we could see if we could come up with a good sequel idea for Nolan's Dark Knight, if anyone is qualified, it's drunken Bob Kane. Last but not least, Zaphod Beeblebrox! I saw that Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect have already been taken, and great choices they are, but I think the President of the Galaxy would make a much better drinking buddy. First off, he has two heads! That's twice the drunken banter. And let's remember that he was the one who actually invented the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, the best drink in existence; so even if it can't be mixed on earth (due to several weapons treaties and some troublesome laws of physics), I take it he must know his alcohol really well. Sure, he's a bit self-centered, but that gives him a unique edge to telling his crazy stories. I Know you said only one entry per person Rob, but what can I say, I overcompensated because I grew up fat.

• What about Adam West from fairy-odd parents? or whatever the hell that shows called...

• Ricky Jay, several bottles of Scotch and Drambuie, and a few decks of cards! Have you seen this guy? Here's a random clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1ZGIN0UqJE (I love that title, "Ricky Jay penetrates a watermelon." A future FFF classic!) We could talk about Deadwood and the history of magic, and maybe I could get him to show me the proper way to throw cards, Bullseye style. Then, if he did, when we got thoroughly sloshed we could start breaking stuff on the other side of the room with cards. Then he'd probably take all my money in a poker game (anyone would have to be really drunk to play cards with this guy), but it would be a small price to pay.

• Neil Gaiman. Iduno, i'm a pretty big fan. I'd pick his brain about his writing process. I'm sure he's a nerd too so if he didn't want to divulge his secrets of success, i guess we'd just talk about fantasy stories or some shit. but look, too his credit this guys has worked on everything. The Sandman graphic novel series, Stardust, Coraline, Marvelman, he wrote the script for Beowulf, the english version of Princess Mononoke, Babylon 5 episodes, and soon an episode of Dr. Who. GEEKY ENOUGH FOR YA? I'd also be able to talk about classic literature, because Gaiman knows his Keats.

• quaquaqua could I briefly show up to read for Lucky?

• I went to a screening/Q&A of My Name is Bruce and someone asked him if he would play the game with them.

• Joss Whedon...fellow nerd who would probably be happy to jam about any geektastic topic that popped into my head. But more importantly, I'd get him drunk and get him to tell me how future seasons of Firefly and Dollhouse would have gone. Or ate least get him to commit to working on comic books series continuing both...with a little help from yours truly, of course. Oh, and at least one of our drinking sessions would end with us TP-ing Fox headquarters.

• PS JUST CLICK ON THE LINK in the previous post for emma super sexy . (my name should send u there :) )

• ok clearing things up that oral sex does not count (using the statutes of Clinton vs intern-humping-old-as-dirt republicans)& Qaugmire as evidence =) . for a female MEG foster (IN HER PRIME, as Evylinn in MOTU),emma watson/Evanna Lynch (luna/hermione) emma because of her sexy as hell button (being a boozer does not hurt either)nose/evanna because of that whisp in her voice when she speaks on camera and she is Irish *girl can hold her bloodwine, thats for sure* it should be a real person Richard moll (bull/ Two face voice) as a male drinking buddy that would be awesome . to Shulkie/Rubi : its a well known fact that cookie is the raging FRATBOY on Sesame ,and he aint quitting because if you check his home its 3/4 cookies and booze, and 1/4 healthy food . YOU HAVE TO LOVE ENDORSEMENTS :) a jillian dollars a year cant be wrong . Jag

• I have to say I've been hesitating between many incredible individuals who have changed the world with their body and/or mind, like Arnold Schwarzenegger or King Diamond. If this was about a fictional character maybe I could go with Sport Billy or Cobra Commander but here I am, thinking about drinking hard and speaking nonsense with someone during a whole weekend and I guess the most awesome guy to spend time with would be Mr. T. This god among the living has done so many amazing things in his life, like being a movie/tv star, kicking butts and redefining badassery, even through geekness such as World of Warcraft commercials. Not only would this weekend be about actually chatting but mostly drinking manly, pitying the fool.

• Jesse Custer. Because once you drink with him once you'll be friends forever, and i'd rather have him on my side.

• WIN!

• I dig this choice. Warren Ellis would be an awesome drunk. Also, this wooden chair leg, is it by any chance a Chair Leg of Truth?

• okay, I have to give props to you for saying starscream. the sheer absurdity of the zany motnage that just played in my mind of your adventures together made me laugh hard enough to wake up my roommates. Well done, sir or ma'am. Well done.

• Awesome though Hunter may be, he would have been waaay more likely to shoot you while drunk. Or force you to get a tattoo so he can write about it. So he's at least as scary a drunk as Alan Moore, if not more so!

• Adam Baldwin's a libertarian? Why are all the guys I'm attracted to libertarians??? What an enigma. Good drinking buddy choice!

• Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece. Just so I can ask him what he's on and where I can get some. In which case, when I finally manage to get my hands on said drug, I can hatch my plan to create an immensely amazing and popular shonen manga series and RULE THE WORLD... of manga, that is.

• I would choose Hitler and ask him if he could find a "solution" to our Mexican problem. :)

• Man... all the good ones are already taken. I have to think outside the box... USING SCIENCE!!! I would choose one of thoose sexbots Rob loves writing about. Instead of only getting one drinking buddy, I could program it with the mixed personalities of Alan Moore, Christopher Lee, Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman and the Angry Video Game Nerd. I don't drink any alcohol, but I would probably start after a weekend with sexy Mooleechettman Nerd. SCIENCE!!! What? No one has choosen Ed Wood, the greatest director of all time? Then I pick him as my buddy.

• There are three people i'd love to spend locked away with and have a few beers... First, Kevin Peter Hall, i mean this guy was the Predator and Harry from Harry and the Hendersons. Second, Kane Hodder, I mean this guy was Jason Vorhees for a ton of Friday the 13th movies. In each case i would like to talk to them about experiences on the set and then discuss where they think the characters they originated are today compared to when they took on the role. If i could get both of them then we'd create a new movie, Predator vs Jason. The third person would be George A Romero. I would ask him about Horror movies and where the genre is going and then get insight into how he came up with ideas and then we'd hash out a new ______ of the Dead!

• Tetsuya Nomura for me! but we'd have to be in his childhood home in the Kochi Prefecture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%8Dchi_Prefecture) which, i imagined, to be as scenic as it is a frozen HELL during winter for someone to develop a VERY active imagination. we'd probably spend the majority of our time on the porch/foyer, overlooking the snowed-in gardens while some poor sap is cursing very colorfully while shoveling the lawn next door. then, over some warm sake and the occasional bloody mary, i'll be grilling him for all of the questions that mattered to a japanerd such as myself, like: 1. what the HELL is going on in kingdom hearts? 2. will we ever see Kingdom Hearts III in our lifetime? 3. is riku gay? is sora gay? are riku and sora gay for each other? 4. is roxas gay? is axel gay? are axel and roxas gay for each other? 5. why is it that Final Fantasy XIII is so much "meh", while its "Versus" spin-off is made of so much "WHOA!" ? 6. what are his plans for the Parasite Eve spin-off, "The 3rd Birthday"? sucky, resident-evil like combat like the second, or a return to the awesome original? 7. seven reasons why ventus (Birth by Sleep) and zack fair (Crisis Core) seemed waaaaaaay too similar to each other of course, the resulting discussions would probably take more than three days, but i don't mind. so long as the mysteries are finally solved and put to rest. and all this along the falling snow, too.

• Ub Iwerks; mainly just to hear about all the crazy shit he couldn't show to Walt.

• My choice has already been taken, but I really do not give a rat's ass: Neil Gaiman. Great Author, great thinker, great speaker and doesn't usually rise from bed till past noon, in essence, the perfect drinking buddy. A guy who can talk about comics, mythology and the decay of the American Mid-west, without having to leave the pub for a pesky 9-5 shift. Plus, there is the added bonus of Gaiman being buddys with Alan Moore, so there is a likely chance that Moore could join us in our drinking, hopefully decked out in a 3 wolves t-shirt. It would be fantastic....scotch, good company, and the potential to discuss H.P. Lovecraft....

• http://www.mediaite.com/online/the-aughts-and-the-aught-not-haves/ An excerpt from his forthcoming book. Looks like it might be an interesting read. And yes it seems like he'd have no trouble keeping a nerd entertained for a full weekend.

• Im going to take the liberty of a one real/one fictional person also. You gotta make these things more clear! The real person is easy as hell. I've always wished I had an hour to shoot the shit with Akira Kurosawa. The man is an absolute inspiration to everything I've ever held dear. He has single-handedly created or built the foundations of every major genre of film and/or story-telling I enjoy watching and he undoubtedly would be well versed for a fantastic discussion of the other giants in the field. This decision is only further strengthened by my intense Nipponophilia and the fact that Kurosawa was such a strong and direct influence on the Star Wars series. If it was a fictional character, Id have to say Cid from the Final fantasy series. Holy shit! That guy has literally seen everything there is to see. While various heroes come and go throughout the tales, Cid has been a constant presence and a contributing factor in every single one. This guy has seen the rise and fall of more dynasties, evil powers and world-wide cataclysms than fifty men ever should and he lives to tell the tale and lend a helping hand. Truly, one of the great "behind the scenes" guys, I would love to kick back some brews with him and hear some old war tales.
